Forward-Looking and Cautionary Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains certain statements that are, or may be deemed to be, "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Exchange Act, as amended. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides safe harbor provisions for forward-looking information. Some of the statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are forward-looking statements. All statements other than statements of historical fact are, or may be deemed to be, forward-looking statements. The words "believe," "may," "estimate," "continue," "anticipate," "intend," "plan," "expect" and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include information concerning our possible or assumed future financial performance and results of operations.

We have based these statements on our assumptions and analyses in light of our experience and perception of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors we believe are appropriate in the circumstances. Forward-looking statements by their nature involve substantial risks and uncertainties that could significantly affect expected results, and actual future results could differ materially from those described in such statements. While it is not possible to identify all factors, factors that could cause actual future results to differ materially ~~include~~include:

there is the ~~risks~~potential for a wide range of uncertainties related to the 2020 Presidential and ~~uncertainties disclosed~~Congressional elections that could change funding related to our lines of business. Because we generate a substantial portion of our revenues from contracts with U.S. government agencies, our operating results could be adversely affected by spending caps or changes in ~~our 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K contained~~budgetary priorities, as well as by delays in ~~Part I~~the government budget process, program starts or the award of contracts or task orders under ~~"Risk Factors"~~contracts. Changes in spending authorizations and budgetary priorities may occur as a result of the shifts in spending priorities from defense-related and other programs as a result of competing demands for federal funds and the ~~risk factors~~number and intensity of military conflicts and other ~~cautionary statements contained~~factors;

operational challenges relating to the COVID-19 pandemic and efforts to mitigate the spread of the virus, including logistical challenges, protecting the health and well-being of our employees, remote work arrangements, performance of contracts and supply chain disruptions;

the COVID-19 pandemic has increased the severity and duration of world health events, including volatility in the capital markets, deteriorating financial conditions or bankruptcy, and related economic repercussions resulting from severe disruption in multiple industries, which may negatively impact our ~~other filings with~~ clients' ability to meet their payment obligations to us in a timely manner; and

the ~~SEC.~~level of capital spending and access to capital markets by industrial companies, including significant reductions and potential additional reductions in capital expenditures in response to commodity prices and dramatically reduced demand

Many of these factors are beyond our ability to control or predict. Any of these factors, as well as the risks and uncertainties disclosed in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K contained in Part I under "Risk Factors", this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contained or referenced in Part II under "Risk Factors", and the risk factors and other cautionary statements contained in our other filings with the SEC, or a combination of these factors, could materially and adversely affect our future financial condition or results of operations and the ultimate accuracy of the forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of our future performance, and our actual results and future developments may differ materially and adversely from those projected in the forward-looking statements. We caution against putting undue reliance on forward-looking statements or projecting any future results based on such statements or on present or prior earnings levels. In addition, each forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date of the particular statement, and we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

Note 1. ~~Description~~Basis of ~~Company and Significant Accounting Policies~~

KBR, Inc., a Delaware corporation, was formed on March 21, 2006, and is headquartered in Houston, Texas. KBR, Inc. and its wholly owned and majority-owned subsidiaries (collectively referred to herein as "KBR", the "Company", "we", "us" or "our") is a global provider of differentiated, professional services and technologies across the asset and program life-cycle within the government services and hydrocarbons industries. Our capabilities include research and development, feasibility and solutions development, specialized technical consulting, systems integration, engineering and design service, process technologies, program management, construction services, commissioning and startup services, highly specialized mission and logistics support solutions, and asset operations and maintenance services and other support services to a diverse customer base, including government and military organizations of the U.S., U.K. and Australia and a wide range of customers across the hydrocarbons value chain.Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared using generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements do not include all information or notes required by ~~general~~generally accepted accounting principles for annual financial statements and should be read together with our ~~2018~~2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The condensed consolidated financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly our financial position as of September 30, ~~2019~~2020 and the results of our operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018,~~2019, and our cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018.~~2019.

weather. We generally realize both lower and higher than expected margins on projects in any given period. We recognize revisions of revenues and costs in the period in which the revisions are known. This may result in the recognition of costs before the recognition of related revenue recovery, if any. Our significant accounting policies are detailed in "Note 1. ~~Description of Company and~~ Significant Accounting Policies" of our 2019 Annual Report on Form ~~10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018.~~10-K.

We have evaluated all events and transactions occurring after the balance sheet date but before the financial statements were issued and have included the appropriate disclosures.

Principles of Consolidation

~~Our~~The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and include the accounts of KBR, Inc. and ~~our wholly owned and majority-owned~~the subsidiaries ~~and~~it controls, including VIEs ~~of which we are~~where it is the primary beneficiary. We account for investments over which we have significant influence, but not a controlling financial interest, using the equity method of accounting. See Note 109 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion onof our equity investments and VIEs. ~~The cost method is used when we do not have the ability to exert significant influence.~~ All material intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

~~Reclassifications~~Business Reorganization and Restructuring Activities

~~Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified~~The impact of the decline in oil and gas prices, the COVID-19 pandemic and related economic and business and market disruptions over the first six months of 2020 continues to ~~conform~~evolve and its future effects remain uncertain. The impact of these recent developments on our business will depend on many factors, many of which are beyond management's control and knowledge. During the first quarter of 2020, our management initiated and approved a restructuring plan in response to the ~~current year presentation~~dislocation of the global energy market resulting from the decline in oil prices and the COVID-19 pandemic. The restructuring plan is designed to reduce costs and improve operational efficiencies. In the second quarter of 2020, management approved additional restructuring activities in connection with decisions to discontinue pursuing certain types of work, principally lump-sum EPC and commoditized construction services. As a result of these restructuring activities and adverse market conditions, we have performed interim impairment tests of our ~~condensed consolidated statements~~goodwill, intangible assets, significant investments and various other assets. See Note 7 "Restructuring Charges and Asset Impairments" and Note 8 "Goodwill and Goodwill Impairment" for further discussion of ~~operations. We have elected to classify certain indirect costs incurred as overhead (included in "Cost of revenues") or general administrative expenses for U.S. GAAP reporting purposes in~~restructuring and impairment charges recognized during the same manner as such costs are defined in our disclosure statements under CAS. Effective January 1, 2019, we established a new CAS structure and revised our disclosure statements accordingly to reflect the related cost accounting practice changes. Consequently, for the three and nine ~~months~~month periods ended September 30, ~~2018, $27 million and $94 million, respectively, was reclassified from "Cost of revenues" to "Selling, general and administrative expenses" on our condensed consolidated statement of operations.~~2020.

~~Business Reorganization~~

~~Effective January 1, 2019, we changed~~The restructuring plan included the ~~name~~reorganization of KBR's management structure primarily within our ~~Government Services~~Energy Solutions business segment ~~to "Government Solutions", our Technology segment to "Technology Solutions"~~during the first and ~~our Hydrocarbons Services segment to "Energy Solutions".

~~As of January 1, 2019, our segments consist of the following 5 reportable segments:~~

~~Energy Solutions~~

~~Non-strategic Business~~

~~Other~~

See Note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion onof our segments. We have presented our segment results reflecting these changes for all periods presented. In conjunction with the change in segments, we evaluated goodwill associated with each of our reporting units using Level 3 fair value inputs, and no impairment indicators were identified.

Impact of Adoption of New Accounting Standards

Financial Instruments - Credit Losses

Effective January 1, ~~2019,~~2020, we adopted ASU No. ~~2016-02, Leases~~2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic ~~842) and related ASUs~~326) - Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, using the modified retrospective ~~transition~~ approach. The modified retrospective transition approach provides for an “effective date” method for recording leases that existed or were entered into on or after January 1, 2019, without restating prior-period information. Our unconsolidated joint ventures anticipate adoptingThis ASU replaces the ~~new lease standard effective January 1, 2020.~~incurred loss

~~ASC Topic 842 provided several optional practical expedients for use in transition. We elected~~impairment model that recognizes losses when a probable threshold is met with a requirement to ~~use the package~~recognize lifetime expected credit losses immediately when a financial asset, including receivables, are recorded. The estimate of ~~practical expedients which allowed us to~~expected credit losses considers not reassess our previous conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and the accounting treatment for initial direct costs. We did not elect the practical expedient pertaining to the use of hindsight.

The most significant effects of the new standard on our consolidated financial statements are the recognition of new operating lease right-of-use ("ROU") assets and operating lease liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet for operating leases as well as significant new disclosures about our leasing activities as further discussed in Note 16. On January 1, 2019, we recorded “Operating lease liabilities” of approximately $253 million based on the present value of the remaining lease payments over the lease term. Additionally, we reclassifiedonly historical information, but also current and ~~noncurrent deferred rent of $68 million associated with straight-line accounting~~future economic conditions and tenant incentives related to existing real estate leases against the initial "Operating lease right-of-use assets" as of January 1, 2019. The adoption of the new standard did not have a material impact on our results of operations or cash flows.

events. As a result of the adoption, we recorded a ~~cumulative-effect~~cumulative effect adjustment to retained earnings of ~~$21~~$3 million, net of ~~deferred taxes~~tax of $7$1 million, ~~representing the unamortized portion of a deferred gain previously recorded in conjunction with the 2012 sale and leaseback of the office building in Houston, Texas where~~on our corporate headquarters is located. We concluded the transaction resulted in the transfer of control of the office building to the buyer-lessor at market terms and therefore would have qualified as a sale under ASC Topic 842 with gain recognition in the period in which the sale was recognized.

~~We recognized the cumulative effect of initially applying ASC Topic 842 as an adjustment to our assets and liabilities in our~~opening condensed consolidated balance sheet as of January 1, ~~2019, as follows:~~

Other Standards

Effective January 1, ~~2019,~~2020, we adopted ASU No. ~~2017-12, Derivatives~~2018-18, Clarifying the Interaction Between Topic 808 and ~~Hedging (Topic 815) - Targeted Improvements to Accounting~~Topic 606, which clarifies that certain transactions between participants in a collaborative arrangement should be accounted for ~~Hedge Activities, using~~under ASC 606 when the ~~modified retrospective approach.

The adoption of this ~~ASU did not have a material impact to our financial statements.~~

Effective January 1, 2019, we adopted ASU No. 2018-16, Inclusion of the Secured Overnight Financing Rate Overnight Index Swap Rate as a Benchmark Interest Rate for Hedge Accounting Purposes. As a result, entities may designate changes in this rate as the hedged risk in hedges of interest rate risk for fixed-rate financial instruments. The adoption of ASU 2018-16standard did not have any impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Effective January 1, ~~2019,~~2020, we adopted ASU No. ~~2018-02, Reclassification~~2018-17, Targeted Improvements to Related Party Guidance for Variable Interest Entities. This ASU amends the guidance for determining whether a decision-making fee is a variable interest. The adoption of ~~Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Topic 220). Under the new~~this standard we did not ~~elect~~have any impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Effective January 1, 2020, we adopted ASU No. 2018-15, Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract. This ASU permits customers in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract to ~~reclassify~~capitalize certain implementation costs as if the arrangement was an internal-use software project. We have elected to avail this option. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Effective January 1, 2020, we adopted ASU No. 2018-13, Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. This ASU amends ASC 820 to add, remove and modify certain disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. For example, the Company will now be required to disclose the range and weighted average used to develop significant unobservable inputs for Level 3 fair value measurements. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

Effective January 1, 2020, we adopted ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) - Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. This ASU eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. In addition, income tax effects ~~stranded in AOCL~~from any tax deductible goodwill on the carrying amount of the reporting unit should be considered when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable. The amendments also eliminate the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to ~~retained earnings as~~perform a qualitative assessment and, if it fails that qualitative test, to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. An entity still has the option to perform the qualitative assessment for a reporting unit to determine if the quantitative impairment test is necessary. As a result of the ~~enactment of comprehensive tax legislation, commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. Therefore, the~~ adoption of this ~~ASU had no impact on financial statements.~~standard, we used Step 1 to measure the goodwill impairment losses recognized during the first and second quarters of 2020 without proceeding to Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test as required under the previous standard. See Note 8 "Goodwill and Goodwill Impairment" for discussion of goodwill impairment recognized for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2020.

In August 2018, the SEC adopted the final rules under SEC Release No. 33-10532, Disclosure Update and Simplification. The final rules amend the interim financial statement requirements to require a reconciliation of changes in stockholders’ equity in the notes or as a separate statement. The analysis should reconcile the beginning and ending balances of each caption in stockholders’ equity for each period in which an income statement is presented. The final rules were effective on November 5, 2018. See Note 17 for the reconciliation of shareholders’ equity.

~~Other Liabilities~~Impact on Previously Issued Financial Statements for the Correction of an Error

~~"Other liabilities"~~During the second quarter ended June 30, 2020, we identified and corrected an immaterial error affecting previously issued financial statements related to the adoption of ASU No. 2017-13, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) for several unconsolidated affiliates as of January 1, 2019. The error was due to the impact of improperly calculated cumulative effect of initially applying ASC Topic 606 on our assets and shareholders' equity in the balance sheet. The previously reported error resulted in an overstatement of "Equity in and advances to unconsolidated affiliates" and "Retained earnings" of approximately $4 million in our condensed consolidated balance ~~sheet~~sheets as of ~~December~~March 31, ~~2018 included deferred rent primarily related~~2019. The error had no impact on our previously reported condensed consolidated statements of operations or cash flows. We assessed the materiality, both quantitatively and qualitatively, in accordance with the SEC's SAB No. 99 and SAB No. 108, and concluded the error was not material to ~~real-estate leases~~any of our previously issued quarterly or annual financial statements. To correctly present the error noted above, previously issued financial statements have been revised and are presented as ~~well as~~"As Corrected" in the ~~unamortized portion of a deferred gain related to a 2012 sale-leaseback real-estate transaction totaling $92 million. See above under "~~table below.

Note 2. Business Segment Information

We provide a wide range of professional services and the management of our business is heavily focused on major projects or programs within each of our reportable segments. At any given time, a relatively few number of projects, government programs and joint ventures represent a substantial part of our operations. We are organized into 3 core business segments, Government Solutions, Technology Solutions, and Energy Solutions and 2 non-core business segments as described below:

Government Solutions. Our GS business segment provides full life-cycle support solutions to defense, space, aviation and other programs and missions for military and other government agencies in the U.S., U.K. and Australia. ~~As program management integrator,~~ KBR ~~covers~~services cover the full spectrum ~~of defense, space, aviation and other government programs and missions~~ from research and ~~development;~~development, through systems engineering, test and evaluation, systems integration and program ~~management;~~management, to operations support, ~~maintenance~~readiness and ~~field~~ logistics. ~~Our acquisitions as~~With the acquisition of Centauri Holdings Platform, LLC ("Centauri") on October 1, 2020 described in Note 4 to ~~our~~the condensed consolidated financial statements, ~~have been combined with~~ our ~~existing operations within this~~GS business ~~segment.~~segment also provides software and engineering solutions to critical national security missions across space, cyber, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance, missile defense and intelligence domains to the U.S. government and related defense agencies. See Note 4 "Acquisitions" for further details.

Technology Solutions. Our TS business segment combines KBR's proprietary technologies, equipment and catalyst supply, digital solutions and associated knowledge-based services into a global business for ammonia/fertilizers, nitric acid, refining, petrochemicals, inorganic and specialty chemicals ~~as well as gasification, syngas, ammonia, nitric acid~~refining. Our TS business segment focuses on the development of advanced digital and ~~fertilizers.~~proprietary tools. From early planning through scope definition, advanced technologies and project life-cycle support, our TS business segment works closely with customers to provide what we believe is the optimal approach to maximize their return on investment. Licensing and engineering/design services are typically provided during the front-end planning stage of both green- and brown-field capital projects, and proprietary equipment is delivered and installed as part of facility construction. Catalysts, or process consumables designed to drive process performance, efficiency and reliability, are delivered for start-up and are subsequently replenished, as needed.

Energy Solutions. Our ES business segment provides ~~comprehensive project~~full life-cycle support solutions across the upstream, midstream and ~~program delivery capability globally. Our key capabilities leverage our operational~~downstream energy markets. Global events and ~~technical excellence as~~the associated market disruptions have accelerated KBR’s transition to becoming a ~~global provider of~~solutions-oriented business and a migration away from lump-sum EPC ~~for onshore oil~~ and gas; LNG/GTL; oil refining; petrochemicals; chemicals; fertilizers; offshore oil and gas (shallow-water, deep-water and subsea); floating solutions (FPUs, FPSO, FLNG & FSRU); maintenance services; and consultingcommoditized services.

Non-strategic Business. ~~Our~~ Non-strategic Business ~~segment~~ represents the operations or activities we determine are no longer core to our business strategy and that we have exited or intend to exit upon completion of existing contracts. All ~~Non-Strategic~~Non-strategic Business projects are substantially complete. Current activities in this business segment primarily relate to final project close-out, negotiation and settlement of claims, joint venture liquidation and various other matters associated with these projects.

Effective for the quarter ended September 30, 2019, we reported the results of joint venture operations related to a project in Latin America within our Non-strategic Business segment. The reclassification results from our decision during the quarter to

wind down the operating activities of the joint venture and exit the business. Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates related to this joint venture were previously reported in our Energy Solutions business segment and were $0 million and a loss of $13 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, and income of $2 million and a loss of $4 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively.

Other. Our Other segment includes corporate expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses not allocated to the business segments above.

The following table presents revenues, gross profit (loss), equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates, selling, general and administrative expenses, acquisition and integration related costs, gain on disposition of assets, gain of consolidation of Aspire entities, and operating income (loss) by reporting segment.

~~Changes in Project-related Estimates~~

There are many factors that may affect the accuracy of our cost estimates and ultimately our future profitability. These include, but are not limited to, the availability and costs of resources (such as labor, materials and equipment), productivity and weather, and for unit rate and construction service contracts, the availability and detail of customer supplied engineering drawings. With a portfolio of more than 1000 contracts, we sometimes realize both lower and higher than expected margins on projects in any given period. We recognize revisions of revenues and costs in the period in which the revisions are known. This may result in the recognition of costs before the recognition of related revenue recovery, if any.

Note 3. Revenue

Disaggregated Revenue

We disaggregate our revenue from customers by ~~type of service,~~ geographic destination and contract type for each of our segments, as we believe it best depicts how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of our revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors.

Revenue by Service/Product line and reportable segment was as follows:

Performance Obligations, Contract Assets, and Contract Liabilities

We recognized an immaterial amount of revenue from performance obligations satisfied in previous periods ~~of $1 million and $23 million~~ for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, and ~~2018, respectively,~~$36 million and $14 ~~million, and $54~~ million for the nine months ended September 30, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018,~~2019, respectively.

On September 30, ~~2019,~~2020, we had ~~$11.2~~$9.9 billion of transaction price allocated to remaining performance obligations. We expect to recognize approximately ~~36%~~32% of our remaining performance obligations as revenue within one year, 33% in years two through five, and ~~31%~~35% thereafter. Revenue associated with our remaining performance obligations to be recognized beyond one year includes performance obligations related to the Aspire Defence and Fasttrax projects, which have contract terms extending through 2041 and 2023, respectively. ~~The balance of remaining~~Remaining performance obligations does not include variable consideration that was determined to be constrained as of September 30, 2020.

We recognized revenue of $294 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, which was previously included in the contract liability balance at December 31, 2019.

We adopted ASU No. 2014-09 (ASC Topic 606), Revenue from Contracts with Customers and related ASUs in the first quarter of 2018. See the 2018 10-K for a further discussion of the adoption and the impact on our financial statements. In accordance with ASU No. 2017-13, certain of our unconsolidated joint ventures will adopt ASC Topic 606 in the fourth quarter of 2019. Currently, we are evaluating the impact of this adoption by performing a detailed review of representative contracts and comparing the historical accounting policies and practices of our unconsolidated joint ventures to the new standard. While we are still evaluating the potential impact, we currently believe the areas that may impact our joint ventures the most include determining which goods and services are distinct and represent separate performance obligations, accounting for variable consideration, and the manner in which the unit of account for projects are determined. These concepts, as well as other aspects of the guidance, may change the method and/or timing of revenue recognition by our unconsolidated joint ventures which in turn could impact our results recognized for these investments under the equity method of accounting. In the fourth quarter of 2019, we will recognize the impact of the adoption of the new standard by our unconsolidated joint ventures effective January 1, 2019. Our intent is to apply the modified retrospective method of adoption with the cumulative effect of adoption recognized at the date of initial application for uncompleted contracts.

Note 4. Acquisitions ~~Dispositions and Other Transactions~~

~~Stinger Ghaffarian Technologies Acquisition~~Scientific Management Associates (Operations) Pty Ltd

On ~~April 25, 2018,~~March 6, 2020, we acquired ~~100% of the outstanding stock of SGT. SGT is a leading provider of high-value engineering, mission operations, scientific~~certain assets and ~~IT software solutions in~~assumed certain liabilities related to the government defense business of Scientific Management Associates (Operations) Pty Ltd ("SMA"). The acquired business of SMA provides technical training services ~~market.~~to the Royal Australian Navy and is reported within our GS business segment. We accounted for this transaction using the acquisition method under ASC 805, Business ~~Combinations~~.Combinations. The ~~acquisition is reported within our GS business segment.

We recognized goodwill of ~~$257~~$12 million arising from the ~~acquisition.~~acquisition, which relates primarily to future growth opportunities to expand services provided to the Royal Australian Navy.

Centauri Platform Holdings, LLC

On October 1, 2020, we acquired Centauri in accordance with an agreement and plan of merger, pursuant to which a wholly owned subsidiary of KBR merged with and into Centauri, with Centauri continuing as the surviving company and a wholly owned subsidiary of KBR. The aggregate consideration paid was approximately $827 million in cash, subject to certain working capital, net debt and other post-closing adjustments, if applicable. The Company funded the aggregate consideration paid using cash on-hand, borrowings under our Senior Credit Facility, net proceeds from the private offering of $250 million aggregate principal amount of our 4.750% Senior Notes due 2028 (the "Senior Notes"), and proceeds from the sale of receivables. See Note 11 "Debt and Other Credit Facilities" for further discussion of our Senior Credit Facility and Senior Notes, and Note 19 "Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Risk Management" for further discussion of our sale of receivables.

~~We recognized direct, incremental costs~~Centauri provides high-end engineering and development solutions for critical, well-funded, national security missions associated with space, intelligence, cyber, and emerging technologies such as directed energy and missile defense. The acquisition will expand KBR's military space and intelligence business and builds upon the Company's existing cybersecurity and missile defense solutions. Furthermore, the addition of Centauri advances KBR's strategic transformation of becoming a leading provider of high-end, mission-critical technical services and solutions. Due to the recent closing of this acquisition, certain financial information related to this acquisition including the fair value of $0 million and $2 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, and $1 million and $4 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively. These costs are included in "Acquisition and integration related costs" on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

The acquired SGT business contributed $122 million and $365 million of revenues, and $15 million and $35 million of gross profit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, the SGT business contributed $126 million and $216 million of revenues, and $12 million and $19 million of gross profit, respectively.

~~Consolidation of Aspire Defence Subcontracting Entities~~

~~On January 15, 2018, Carillion, our U.K. partner in the joint ventures that provide the construction and related support services~~total consideration transferred or estimated to Aspire Defence Limited, entered into compulsory liquidation and ceased performing services for the project. In accordance with the commercial arrangements of the project company and its lenders, Carillion was excluded from future business and benefit from its interest in the project and we assumed operational management and control of the subcontracting entities.

As a result of Carillion's compulsory liquidation, KBR was deemed the primary beneficiary as it has the power to direct activities having the most significant impact on the economic performance of the subcontracting entities. Consequently, KBR began consolidating these entities in its financial statements effective January 15, 2018. We accounted for these transactions under the acquisition method of accounting for business combinations in accordance ASC 805 and recognized a gain of approximately $113 million included in "Gain on consolidation of Aspire subcontracting entities" as a result of remeasuring our equity interests in each of the subcontracting entities to fair value. We also recognized goodwill of approximately $42 million.

On April 18, 2018, we completed the acquisition of Carillion's interests in the subcontracting entities for $50 million pursuant to a share and business purchase agreement and approval by Aspire Defence Limited, the Aspire Defence Limited project lenders and the MoD. We accounted for the change in KBR's interest as an equity transaction. The difference between the noncontrolling interests of $124 million in the subcontracting entities at the date of acquisition and the cash consideration paid to Carillion was recognized as a net increase to "PIC" of $74 million. We incurred acquisition-related costs of $0 million and $1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, which were recorded in "Acquisition and integration related costs" on our condensed consolidated statements of operations. NaN acquisition-related costs were recorded for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019.

The results of operations of the subcontracting entities have been included in our condensed consolidated statements of operations for periods subsequent to assuming control on January 15, 2018. The acquired subcontracting entities contributed $138 million and $405 million of revenues, and $17 million and $49 million of gross profit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively, and contributed $138 million and $387 million of revenues and $14 million and $42 million of gross profit for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively, within our GS business segment.

The following supplemental pro forma condensed consolidated results of operations assume that SGT and the Aspire Defence subcontracting entities had been acquired as of January 1, 2017. The supplemental pro forma information was prepared based on the historical financial information of SGT and the Aspire Defence subcontracting entities and has been adjusted to give effect to pro forma adjustments that are both directly attributable to the transaction and factually supportable. Pro forma adjustments were primarily related to the amortization of intangibles, interest on borrowings related to the acquisitions, and the reclassification of the gain on consolidation of the Aspire entities to January 1, 2017. Accordingly, this supplemental pro forma financial information is presented for informational purposes only andbe transferred, is not necessarily indicative of what the actual results of operations of the combined company would have been had the acquisitions occurred on January 1, 2017, nor is it indication of future results of operations.

Note 8.5. Claims and Accounts Receivable

Our claims and accounts receivable balance not expected to be collected within the next 12 months was ~~$104~~$31 million and ~~$98~~$59 million as of September 30, ~~2019~~2020 and December 31, ~~2018,~~2019, respectively. Claims and accounts receivable primarily reflect claims filed with the U.S. government related to payments not yet received for costs incurred under various U.S. government cost reimbursable contracts within our GS business segment. These claims relate to disputed costs or contracts where our costs have exceeded the U.S. government's funded value on the task order. Included in the amount is ~~$72~~$1 million and ~~$73~~$28 million as of September 30, ~~2019,~~2020, and December 31, ~~2018, respectively, related to~~2019, respectively. The remaining assets and liabilities associated with the previously issued Form 1s issued by the U.S. government questioning or objecting to costs billed to ~~them. See Note 14 of~~them are immaterial to our condensed consolidated ~~financial statements~~balance sheet as of September 30, 2020 as a result of an unfavorable FKTC containers claim ruling. See Note 13 "U.S. Government Matters" for additional information. The amount also includes ~~$32~~$30 million and ~~$25~~$31 million as of September 30, ~~2019,~~2020 and December 31, ~~2018,~~2019, respectively, related to contracts where our reimbursable costs have exceeded the U.S. government's funded values on the underlying task orders or task orders where the U.S. government has not authorized us to bill. We believe the remaining disputed costs will be resolved in our favor, at which time the U.S. government will be required to obligate funds from appropriations for the year in which resolution occurs.

Note 9.6. Unapproved Change Orders, and Claims, Against Clients and Estimated Recoveries of Claims Against Suppliers and Subcontractors

The amounts of unapproved change orders, and claims against clients and estimated recoveries of claims against suppliers and subcontractors included in determining the profit or loss on contracts are as follows:


Dollars in millions	2019			2018			2020			2019
Amounts included in project estimates-at-completion at January 1,	$	973		$	924		$	978		$	973

Amounts recognized over time based on progress at September 30,	$	938		$	922		$	976		$	938

As of September 30, 2020 and 2019, the predominant component of the change orders, customer claims and estimated recoveries of claims against suppliers and subcontractors above relates to our 30% proportionate share of unapproved change orders and claims associated with the Ichthys LNG Project discussed below.

KBR intends to vigorously pursue approval and collection of amounts ~~still~~ due under all unapproved change orders and claims, against the clients and recoveries from subcontractors. Further, there are additional claims that KBR believes it is entitled to recover from its client and from subcontractors which have been excluded from estimated revenues and profits at completion as appropriate under U.S. GAAP. These commercial matters may not be resolved in the near term. Our current estimates for the

above unapproved change orders, client claims and estimated recoveries of claims against suppliers and subcontractors may prove inaccurate and any material change could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position and cash flows.

Ichthys LNG Project

Project Status

We have a 30% ownership interest in the JKC joint venture, which has contracted to perform the engineering, procurement, supply, construction and commissioning of onshore LNG facilities for a client in Darwin, Australia (the "Ichthys LNG Project"). The contract between JKC and its client is a hybrid contract containing both cost-reimbursable and fixed-price (including unit-rate) scopes.

The construction and commissioning of the Ichthys LNG Project is complete and all performance tests have been successfully performed. The entire facility, including two LNG liquefaction trains, cryogenic tanks and the combined cycle power generation facility, has been handed over to the client and is producing LNG. JKC is in the process of ~~executing project~~completing administrative close-out activities and continues to ~~negotiate~~progress the various legal and commercial disputes with the client, suppliers and other third parties as further described below.

Unapproved Change Orders and Claims Against Client

Under the cost-reimbursable scope of the contract, ~~with the client,~~ JKC has entered into commercial contracts with multiple suppliers and subcontractors to execute various scopes of work on the project. Certain of these suppliers and subcontractors have made contract claims against JKC for recovery of costs and extensions of time to progress the works under the scope of their respective contracts due to a variety of issues related to alleged changes to the scope of work, delays and lower than planned subcontractor productivity. In addition, JKC has incurred costs related to scope increases and other factors and has made claims to its client for matters for which JKC believes it is entitled to reimbursement under the contract.

JKC believes any amounts paid or payable to the suppliers and subcontractors in settlement of their contract claims related to the cost-reimbursable scope are an adjustment to the contract price, and accordingly JKC has made claims for contract price adjustments under the cost-reimbursable scope of the contract between JKC and its client. However, the client disputed some of these contract price adjustments and subsequently withheld certain payments. In order to facilitate the continuation of work under the contract while JKC worked to resolve this dispute, the client agreed to a contractual mechanism (“Funding Deed”) in 2016 providing funding in the form of an interim contract price adjustment to JKC and consented to settlement of subcontractor claims as of that date related to the cost-reimbursable scope. While the client has reserved its contractual rights under this funding mechanism, settlement funds (representing the interim contract price adjustment) have been paid by the client. JKC in turn settled these subcontractor claims which have been funded through the Funding Deed by the client.

If ~~JKC's claims against its client which were funded under~~the issues raised in the Funding Deed arbitration remain unresolved by December 31, 2020, JKC ~~will~~could be required to refund sums funded by the client under the terms of the Funding Deed. The legal issues were presented to the arbitration tribunal in September 2020. JKC believes the subcontractor settlement sums were properly incurred and consented to by the client. JKC remains confident the arbitration tribunal will either rule in favor of JKC on the merits or will stay the client’s call on the Funding Deed at the end of December 2020. We, along with our joint venture partners, are jointly and severally liable to the client for any amounts required to be refunded. The client has reserved their contractual rights on certain amounts previously funded to JKC and may seek recoveries of those amounts, including calling the performance and warranty letters of credit.

Our proportionate share of the total amount of the contract price adjustments under the Funding Deed included in the unapproved change orders and claims related to JKC discussed above was ~~$153~~$159 million and $158 million as of September 30, ~~2019~~2020 and December 31, ~~2018.~~2019, respectively.

In September and October 2017, additional settlements pertaining to suppliers and subcontractors under the cost-reimbursable scope of the contract were presented to the client. The client consented to these settlements and paid for them but reserved its contractual rights. In reliance, JKC in turn settled these claims with the associated suppliers and subcontractors. The formal contract price adjustments for these settlements remained pending at September 30, ~~2019.~~2020. However, unlike amounts funded under the Funding Deed, there is no requirement to refund these amounts to the client by a certain date.

In October 2018, JKC received a favorable ruling from anthe arbitration ~~tribunal.~~tribunal related to the Funding Deeds. The ruling determined a contract interpretation in JKC's favor, to the effect that delay and disruption costs payable to subcontractors under the cost-reimbursable scope of the EPC contract are for the client's account and are reimbursable to JKC. JKC contends this ruling

resolves the reimbursability of the subcontractor settlement sums under the Funding Deed and additional settlements made in September and October 2017. Pursuant to this decision, JKC ~~is undertaking~~has undertaken steps for a formal contract adjustment to the ~~cost-reimbursable~~cost reimbursable scope of the contract for these settlement claims which are included in the recognized unapproved change orders as of September 30, ~~2019.~~2020. Our view is that the arbitration ruling resolves our obligations under the Funding Deeds and settlements with reimbursable subcontractors. However, the client does not agree with the impact of the arbitration award and, accordingly, we have initiated ~~a new~~the Funding Deed proceeding referenced above to obtain further determination from the arbitration tribunal. ~~The arbitration tribunal has scheduled a hearing on the Funding Deed matter for September 2020.~~

There has been deterioration of paint and insulation on certain exterior areas of the plant. The client previously requested and funded paint remediation for a portion of the facilities. JKC’s profit estimate at completion includes a portion of revenues and costs for these remediation activities. Revenue for the client-funded amounts are included in the table above. In the first quarter of 2019, the client demanded repayment of the amounts previously funded to JKC. JKC is disputing the client's demand. The client has also requested a proposal to remediate any remaining non-conforming paint and insulation, but JKC and its client have not resolved the nature and extent of the non-conformances, the method and degree of remediation that was and is required, or who is responsible. We believe the remaining remediation costs ~~could~~will be material given the plant is now operating and there will be several operating constraints on any such works.

In addition, JKC has started proceedings against the paint manufacturer and initiated claims against the subcontractors. JKC has also made demands on insurance policies in respect of these matters. JKC believes that project insurance should significantly limit any exposure it has on painting and insulation damages. Proceedings and claims against the paint manufacturer, certain subcontractors and insurance policies are ongoing. As the principal insured, it is incumbent upon the client to pursue the insurance claims with diligence. JKC is urging the client to meet its contractual obligations.

Combined Cycle Power Plant

Pursuant to JKC's fixed-price scope of its contract with its client, JKC awarded a fixed-price EPC contract to a subcontractor for the design, construction and commissioning of the Combined Cycle Power ~~Plant.~~Plant (the "Power Plant"). The subcontractor was a consortium consisting of General Electric and GE Electrical International Inc. and a joint venture between UGL Infrastructure Pty Limited and CH2M Hill (collectively, the "Consortium"). On January 25, 2017, JKC received a Notice of Termination from the Consortium, and the Consortium ceased work on the Power Plant and abandoned the construction site. JKC believes the Consortium materially breached its subcontract and repudiated its obligation to complete the Power Plant, plus undertook actions making it more difficult and more costly for the works to be completed by others after the Consortium abandoned the site. Subsequently, the Consortium filed a request for arbitration with the ICC asserting that JKC repudiated the contract. The Consortium also sought an order that the Consortium validly terminated the subcontract. JKC has responded to this request, denying JKC committed any breach of its subcontract with the Consortium and restated its claim that the Consortium breached and repudiated its subcontract with JKC and is ~~furthermore~~ liable to JKC for all costs to complete the Power Plant.

In March 2017, JKC prevailed in a legal action against the Consortium requiring the return of materials, drawings and tools following their unauthorized removal from the site by the Consortium. After taking over the work, JKC discovered incomplete and defective engineering designs, defective workmanship on the site, missing, underreported and defective ~~materials;~~materials and the improper termination of key vendors/suppliers. JKC's investigations also indicate that progress of the work claimed by the Consortium was over-reported. JKC has evaluated the cost to complete the Consortium's work, which significantly exceeds the awarded fixed-price subcontract value. JKC's cost to complete the Power Plant ~~includes~~included re-design efforts, additional materials and significant re-work. These costs represent estimated recoveries of claims against the Consortium and have been included in JKC's estimate to complete the Consortium's remaining obligations.

JKC is pursuing recourse against the Consortium to recover all of the costs to complete the Power Plant, plus the additional interest, and/or general damages by all means inclusive of calling bank guarantees provided by the Consortium partners. In April 2018, JKC prevailed in a legal action to call bank guarantees (bonds) and received funds totaling $52 million. Each of the Consortium partners has joint and several liability with respect to all obligations under the subcontract. JKC intends to pursue recovery of all additional amounts due from the Consortium via various legal remedies available to JKC.

Costs incurred to complete the Power Plant that have been determined to be probable of recovery from the Consortium under U.S. GAAP have been included as a reduction of cost in our estimate of profit at completion. The estimated recoveries exclude interest, liquidated damages and other related costs which JKC intends to pursue recovery from the Consortium. Amounts expected to be recovered from the Consortium are included in the table ~~above.~~

at the beginning of this Note 6.

As of September 30, ~~2019, JKC~~2020, JKC's claims against the Consortium were approximately ~~$1.9~~$1.8 billion (net of bonds and remaining lump sum contract value) for recovery of JKC's costs. AnHearings on the power plant arbitration ~~hearing against the Consortium is~~are scheduled ~~in the first half of 2020~~for April 2021 and

August 2021 (the "Arbitration"). The previous hearing dates were vacated due to the COVID-19 outbreak. The current dates may continue to be impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.

JKC ~~also initiated suit against~~asked the Australian courts to require the parent ~~companies~~company guarantors of the Consortium ~~members~~ to ~~seek a declaration that the parents either had~~issue payment to ~~perform and finish the work or pay for~~JKC in advance of the completion of the ~~power plant based on their payment and performance guarantees. In May 2019,~~arbitration proceedings. The court concluded that the ~~court ruled against the declaration and JKC's appeal is pending~~parent companies are responsible for Consortium’s liability resulting from the ~~court.~~arbitration outcome, but they are not required to pay in advance of the arbitration. JKC continues to pursue the resolution of this matter and will seek collection from the Consortium and their parent guarantors who are all jointly and severally liable for any damages owed to JKC.

To the extent JKC is unsuccessful in prevailing in the Arbitration or the Consortium members are unable to satisfy their financial obligations in the event of a decision favorable to JKC, we would be responsible for our pro-rata portion of unrecovered costs from the Consortium. This could have a material adverse impact on the profit at completion of the overall contract and thus on our consolidated statements of operations and financial position.

~~Ichthys Project Funding~~

As a result of the ongoing disputes with the client and pursuit of recoveries against the Consortium through the Arbitration, we have funded our proportionate share of the working capital requirements of JKC to complete the project. During the year ended December 31, 2018, we made investment contributions to JKC of approximately $344 million to fund the ongoing project execution activities. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we made additional investment contributions to JKC of approximately $141 million to fund the ongoing project execution activities. The project execution activities have now been completed and were within our forecasted contributions of $500 million.

If we experience unfavorable outcomes associated with the various legal and commercial disputes, our total investment contributions could increase which could have a material adverse effect on our financial position and cash flows. Further, if our joint venture partner(s) in JKC do not fulfill their responsibilities under the JKC JV agreement or subcontract, we could be exposed to additional funding requirements as a result of the nature of the JKC JV agreement.

As of September 30, 2019, we had $164 million in letters of credit outstanding in support of performance and warranty guarantees provided to the client. The performance and warranty letters of credit have been extended to February 2021 to allow for the various disputes to be resolved.

Other Disputed Matters

JKC is entitled to an amount of profit and overhead (“TRC Fee”) which is a fixed percentage of the target reimbursable costs ("TRC") under the reimbursable component of the contract which was to be agreed by JKC and its client. At the time of the contract, JKC and its client agreed to postpone the fixing of the TRC until after a specific milestone in the project had been achieved. Although the milestone was achieved, JKC and its client have been unable to reach agreement on the TRC. This matter was taken to arbitration in 2017. A decision was issued in December 2017 concluding that the TRC should be determined based on project estimate information available at April 2014. JKC has included an estimate for the TRC Fee in its determination of profit at completion at September 30, ~~2019,~~2020, based on the contract provisions and the decision from the December 2017 arbitration. JKC has submitted the revised estimate of the TRC Fee to the client. The parties have not agreed to the revised estimate, and JKC has started an additional arbitration on this dispute.

In late 2019, the International Chamber of Commerce consolidated the Funding Deed arbitration, TRC arbitration and certain other claims asserted by JKC along with claims asserted by its client. A hearing for the Funding Deed arbitration took place in September 2020 and a decision is pending. Pursuant to a recent procedural order, the client is expected to file a detailed statement of its claim in May 2021. The arbitration panel has been constituted but a hearing date has not been scheduled.

Ichthys Project Funding

If we experience unfavorable outcomes associated with the various legal and commercial disputes, our total investment contributions could increase which could have a material adverse effect on our financial position and cash flows. Further, if either of our joint venture partners in JKC do not fulfill their responsibilities under the JKC joint venture agreement or subcontract, we could be exposed to additional funding requirements as a result of the nature of the JKC joint venture agreement.

As of September 30, 2020, we had $164 million in letters of credit outstanding in support of performance and warranty guarantees provided to the client. The performance and warranty letters of credit have been extended to February 2021 to allow for the various disputes to be resolved.

All of the Ichthys LNG project commercial matters are complex and involve multiple interests, including the client, joint venture partners, suppliers and other third parties. Ultimate resolution may not occur in the near ~~term.~~term and could be impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Our current estimates for resolving these matters may prove inaccurate and, if so, any material change could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position and cash flows.

See Note 109 "Equity Method Investments and Variable Interest Entities" to our condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion regarding our equity method investment in JKC.

Note 7. Restructuring Charges and Asset Impairments

Restructuring Charges

During the first quarter of 2020, our management initiated and approved a restructuring plan in response to the dislocation of the global energy market resulting from the recent decline in oil prices and the COVID-19 pandemic. The restructuring plan is designed to refine our market focus, optimize costs and improve operational efficiencies. The restructuring activities and related costs approved under the plan primarily relate to rationalization of real estate and overhead across various geographies in our ES and Other segments. As part of the restructuring plan, total restructuring charges of approximately $47 million were recognized in "Restructuring charges and asset impairments" in our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2020, of which $23 million relates to our ES business segment and $24 million relates to our Other segment representing corporate and other overhead expenses. Total restructuring charges include severance of approximately $24 million and real estate lease abandonments of approximately $23 million associated with office facilities located in the U.S. and U.K. These lease-related restructuring charges represent accrued estimated non-lease components and other operating expenses associated with the fully abandoned office space. In estimating the fair value of the lease-related restructuring charges, we utilized a discounted cash flow model with Level 3 inputs including discount rates based on our incremental borrowing rate, management assumptions regarding future estimated operating costs, office space utilization, and inflation over the remaining lease terms.

During the second quarter of 2020, our management approved additional restructuring activities and decided to discontinue pursuing certain projects, principally lump-sum EPC and commoditized construction services. These restructuring activities primarily related to further rationalization of real estate and overhead in our ES and Other segments. We recognized restructuring charges of approximately $32 million in "Restructuring charges and asset impairments" in our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended June 30, 2020 related in our ES business segment. Total restructuring charges in the second quarter of 2020 primarily include severance of approximately $12 million and charges associated with certain long-term engineering software agreements of approximately $19 million. The software-related restructuring charge represents the fair value of the future costs to be incurred under these agreements without economic benefit to our operations. Our estimate of the fair value of the software restructuring charge was based on a discounted cash flow model with Level 3 inputs including discount rates based on our incremental borrowing rate, management assumptions regarding the committed costs for the excess software capacity and the remaining term of the agreements.

We expect the restructuring activities will be substantially completed in 2020. Additional restructuring activities could be identified and approved as part of the plan. Software and lease related restructuring obligations will extinguish in 2023 and 2030, respectively.

The restructuring liability at September 30, 2020 was $64 million, of which $32 million is included in "Other current liabilities" and $32 million is included in "Other liabilities." A reconciliation of the beginning and ending restructuring liability balances is provided in the following table.

Asset Impairments

As a result of the significant adverse economic and market conditions associated with the dislocation of the global energy market and COVID-19 pandemic, the significant drop in the price of our common shares, and the resulting restructuring plans initiated during the first quarter of 2020, we performed interim impairment tests of our long-lived assets including goodwill, intangible assets and equity investments as well as leased right-of-use and related assets. During the second quarter of 2020, we continued to evaluate our long-lived and other assets for impairment as a result of the ongoing economic and market volatility as well as management's decision to discontinue pursuing certain projects within our ES business segment. See Note 8 "Goodwill and Goodwill Impairment" for further discussion of goodwill impairment recognized in the first and second quarters of 2020.

We determined the fair value of our long-lived assets based primarily on discounted cash flow analyses, and in the case of our equity investments, we used a blended income-based and market-based approach. These determinations included significant

management judgment, including short-term and long-term forecasts of operating performance, discount rates based on our weighted average cost of capital, revenue growth rates, profitability margins, capital expenditures, the timing of future cash flows based on an eventual market recovery, and in the case of long-lived assets, the remaining useful life and service potential of the asset. These impairment assessments incorporate inherent uncertainties, including projected commodity pricing, supply and demand for our services and future market conditions, which are difficult to predict in volatile economic environments and could result in impairment charges in future periods if actual results materially differ from the estimated assumptions utilized in our forecasts.

Leased office facilities and related assets. Management's restructuring plan included the rationalization of the certain leased real estate primarily in the U.S. and U.K. As a result, we began evaluating excess office space apart from office space we will continue to utilize. We made decisions to market certain excess office space for sublease and the remaining excess office space was abandoned along with any related leasehold improvements, furniture and fixtures. The abandoned leased facilities and related assets will not provide any substantial future economic benefit and were impaired accordingly. We recognized lease right-of-use asset impairments of approximately $28 million and impairments of leasehold improvements, furniture and fixtures of approximately $7 million which are included in "Restructuring charges and asset impairments" in our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2020. We recognized additional lease right-of-use asset impairments of approximately $18 million and impairments of leasehold improvements, furniture and fixtures of approximately $3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2020 as a result of decisions to abandon excess office space. In determining these impairments, we utilized a discounted cash flow model with Level 3 inputs including discount rates based on our incremental borrowing rate, management assumptions regarding future cash flows over the remaining estimated useful life of the asset, office space utilization and sublease assumptions.

Trade name intangibles. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we recognized an impairment loss on indefinite-lived intangible assets of approximately $11 million associated with certain trade names acquired through previous business combinations. In connection with the energy market decline, management assessed the fair value of trade names utilized by certain operations within the ES business segment, concluded that they were substantially impaired and decided to cease use of those trade names. The trade names will provide no benefit to future periods and the carrying values of these intangibles were impaired accordingly. In determination of this impairment, we estimated fair value using a relief-from-royalty income approach which utilized Level 3 fair value inputs including management estimates of contract performance, hypothetical royalty rates and our weighted average cost of capital. The loss was included in "Restructuring charges and asset impairments" in our condensed consolidated statement of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

Equity method investments. We evaluated significant investments and determined that two equity method investments were impaired as of March 31, 2020, comprised of 15% interest in a project joint venture located in the Middle East and a 50% interest in a joint venture in Latin America and that those impairments were other than temporary. We recognized total impairment losses of approximately $18 million on these investments included in "Restructuring charges and asset impairments" for the three months ended March 31, 2020, of which $13 million related to the Middle East joint venture project in our ES business segment. The fair value of this investment was determined using a blended income-based and market-based approach utilizing Level 2 fair value inputs including significant management assumptions such as projected commodity prices, operating margins, cash flows and weighted average cost of capital. See Note 19 “Financial Instruments and Risk Management” for definition of three levels of inputs used in measuring fair value. We recognized an impairment loss of $5 million in the first quarter of 2020 on the joint venture in Latin America that is reported in our Non-strategic Business segment. The impairment loss includes the write-off of a shareholder loan to the joint venture and funding of costs to dispose of the underlying joint venture assets. During the second quarter of 2020, we recognized additional impairments totaling approximately $6 million related to several equity method investments associated with management's decision to discontinue pursuing certain projects within our ES business segment.

The restructuring charges and impairment assessments based on fair value determinations described above incorporate inherent uncertainties, some of which are difficult to predict in volatile economic environments and could result in impairment charges in future periods if actual results materially differ from the estimated assumptions utilized in our forecasts.

Note 8. Goodwill and Goodwill Impairment

In connection with our business reorganization and restructuring activities during the first quarter of 2020, we changed our internal management reporting structure, which resulted in changes to the underlying reporting units within our ES business segment. Additionally, given the significant adverse economic and market conditions associated with the dislocation of the global energy market and COVID-19 pandemic as well as the significant decline in the price of our common shares during the first quarter of 2020, we performed an interim impairment test of goodwill resulting in goodwill impairment of $62 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The goodwill impairment was associated with a reporting unit in our ES business segment.

As a result of the ongoing economic and market volatility as well as management's decision to discontinue pursuing certain projects within our ES business segment during the second quarter of 2020, we performed an interim impairment test of goodwill resulting in goodwill impairment of $37 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020. The goodwill impairment was associated with a reporting unit within our ES business segment. One reporting unit within our ES business segment had a negative carrying amount of net assets as of June 30, 2020 and goodwill of approximately $19 million.

For reporting units in our ES business segment, fair value was determined using an income approach utilizing discounted cash flow models with estimated cash flows based on internal forecasts of revenues and expenses over a specified period plus a terminal value. For all other reporting units, fair values were determined using a blended approach including market earnings multiples and discounted cash flow models. Under the market approach, we estimated fair value by applying earnings and revenue market multiples to a reporting unit’s operating performance for the trailing twelve-month period. The income approach estimates fair value by discounting each reporting unit’s estimated future cash flows using a weighted-average cost of capital that reflects current market conditions and the risk profile of the reporting unit. To arrive at our future cash flows, we used estimates of economic and market assumptions, including growth rates in revenues, costs, estimates of future expected changes in operating margins, tax rates and cash expenditures. Other significant estimates and assumptions include terminal value growth rates, future estimates of capital expenditures and changes in future working capital requirements.

The table below summarizes changes in the carrying amount of goodwill by business segment.

Unconsolidated Variable Interest Entities

For the VIEs in which we participate, our maximum exposure to loss consists of our equity investment in the VIE, ~~and~~ any amounts owed to us for services we may have provided to the VIE, and any amounts that we may be contractually or constructively obligated to fund in the future reduced by any unearned revenues on the project. Our maximum exposure to loss may also include our obligation to fund our proportionate share of any future losses incurred. As of September 30, ~~2019,~~2020, we do not project any material losses related to these joint venture projects. Where our performance and financial obligations are joint and several to the client with our joint venture partners, we may be further exposed to losses above our ownership interest in the joint venture.

Senior Credit Facility

~~The~~On February 7, 2020, we amended our Senior Credit Facility to, among other things, reduce the applicable margins and commitment fees associated with the various borrowings under the facility. Simultaneous with the amendment, we used proceeds from the new facility and cash on hand to refinance our outstanding borrowings resulting in an amended senior secured credit facility ("Senior Credit Facility") ~~consists~~that consisted of a $500 million revolving credit facility ("Revolver"), a $500 million PLOC, a ~~$350~~$275 million ~~Delayed Draw Term~~ Loan A, ("Term Loan A") of which a portion is denominated in Australian dollars, and ~~an $800~~a $520 million Term Loan B ("Term Loan B"). ~~The~~In addition, the amendment extended the maturity dates with respect to the Revolver, PLOC ~~and Term Loan A mature in April 2023~~ and the Term Loan A to February 2025 and Term Loan B ~~matures in April 2025. Additional borrowings are no longer~~to February 2027, and amended certain other provisions including the financial covenants.

On July 2, 2020, we amended our Senior Credit Facility to convert the $500 million capacity formerly available under ~~the Term Loan A. Borrowings under the Term Loan A were used to fund investment contributions in JKC. See Note 9~~our PLOC to our ~~condensed consolidated financial statements for a discussion on JKC.~~Revolver, increasing our Revolver capacity from $500 million to $1 billion. On September 14, 2020, we further amended our Senior Credit Facility to modify the definition and calculation of Consolidated EBITDA (as defined therein) to permit pro forma cost reductions resulting from certain corporate transactions. The aggregate amount under our Senior Credit Facility remains $1.795 billion and all other terms and conditions remain unchanged.

The interest rates with respect to the Revolver and Term Loan A are based on, at the Company's option, adjusted LIBOR plus an additional margin or base rate plus additional margin. The interest rate with respect to the Term Loan B is LIBOR plus ~~3.75%~~2.75%. The Senior Credit Facility provides for fees on letters of credit issued under the PLOC at varying rates, as shown below. Additionally, there is a commitment fee with respect to the Revolver ~~PLOC~~ and ~~Term Loan A.~~ PLOC.

The details of the applicable margins and commitment fees under the amended Senior Credit Facility are based on the Company's consolidated leverage ratio as follows:

Nonrecourse Project Debt

Fasttrax Limited, a consolidated joint venture in which we indirectly own a 50% equity interest with an unrelated partner, was awarded a concession contract in 2001 with the U.K. MoD to provide a Heavy Equipment Transporter Service to the British Army. Fasttrax Limited operates and maintains 91 HETs for a term of 22 years. The purchase of the HETs by the joint venture was financed through two series of bonds secured by the assets of Fasttrax Limited and subordinated debt from the joint venture partners. The secured bonds are an obligation of Fasttrax Limited and are not a debt obligation of KBR as they are nonrecourse to the joint venture partners. Accordingly, in the event of a default on the notes, the lenders may only look to the assets of Fasttrax Limited for repayment.

The secured bonds were issued in two classes consisting of Class A 3.5% Index Linked Bonds in the amount of £56.0 million and Class B 5.9% Fixed Rate Bonds in the amount of £20.7 million. Semi-annual payments on both classes of bonds will continue through maturity in March 2021. The subordinated notes payable to each of the partners initially bear interest at 11.25% increasing to 16.00% over the term of the notes until maturity in 2025. For financial reporting purposes, only our partner's portion of the subordinated notes appears in the condensed consolidated financial statements.

Note ~~13.~~12. Income Taxes

The effective tax rate was approximately 27% and (51)% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively. The effective tax rate was approximately 30% and 28% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively. The ~~effective tax rate was approximately 28% and 22% for~~difference between the ~~three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively. The~~ effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, ~~2019, as compared to~~2020 and the U.S. statutory rate of 21%, was primarily ~~impacted~~caused by certain goodwill and asset impairments incurred that are not deductible for tax purposes. Excluding the ~~rate differential on~~tax impact of the goodwill and asset impairment charges, our ~~foreign earnings including equity losses for which no tax benefit is available. The effective~~ tax rate was 27% for the nine months ~~ending~~ended September 30, ~~2018 was impacted by a discrete tax expense as a result of obtaining control~~

~~of the Aspire Defence project subcontracting joint ventures, which was recorded at a lower rate than our estimated annual tax rate for 2018.~~2020.

Our estimated annual effective rate for ~~2019~~2020 is ~~27%~~26% excluding the effects of discrete items. Our estimated annual effective rate is subject to change based on the actual jurisdictions where our ~~2019~~2020 earnings are generated.

The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of September 30, ~~2019,~~2020 and December 31, ~~2018,~~2019 was ~~$197~~$195 million and ~~$207~~$200 million, respectively. The ~~changes in the valuation allowance were decreases~~decrease of $2$5 million and $10 million for the ~~three and~~ nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, was due to the reversal of certain valuation allowances related to the utilization of foreign tax credits during these periods resulting from changes in the amount and ~~decreases~~character of ~~$4 million and $72 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively.~~forecasted income. The remaining valuation allowance is primarily related to foreign tax credit carryforwards and foreign and state net operating loss carryforwards that, in the judgment of management, are not more likely than not to be realized. The decrease in the valuation allowance for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 primarily related to changes in foreign tax credit carryforwards due to the refinement of provisional impacts recorded related to the Deemed Repatriation Transition Tax. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent on the generation of future taxable income, in the appropriate character and source, during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible or within the remaining carryforward period. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities (including the impact of available carryback and carryforward periods), projected future taxable income and tax-planning strategies in making this assessment.

The utilization of the unreserved foreign tax credit carryforwards is based on our ability to generate income from foreign sources of approximately $748 million prior to their expiration. The utilization of other net deferred tax assets, excluding those associated with indefinite-lived intangible assets, is based on our ability to generate U.S. forecasted taxable income of approximately $586 million. Changes in our forecasted taxable income, in the appropriate character and source, as well as jurisdiction, could affect the ultimate realization of deferred tax assets.

The provision for uncertain tax positions included in "Other liabilities" and "Deferred income taxes" on our condensed consolidated balance sheets was $97 million as of September 30, ~~2019,~~2020 and December 31, ~~2018, was $88 million and $90 million, respectively.~~2019.

Note ~~14.~~13. U.S. Government Matters

We provide services to various U.S. governmental agencies, including the U.S. DoD, NASA, and the Department of State. We may have disagreements or experience performance issues on our U.S. government contracts. When performance issues arise under any of these contracts, the U.S. government retains the right to pursue various remedies, including challenges to expenditures, suspension of payments, fines and suspensions or debarment from future business with the U.S. government. The negotiation, administration and settlement of our contracts are subject to audit by the DCAA. The DCAA serves in an advisory role to the DCMA, ~~and the DCMA~~which is responsible for the administration of the majority of our contracts. The scope of these audits ~~include,~~includes, among other things, the validity of direct and indirect incurred costs, provisional approval of annual billing rates, approval of annual overhead rates, compliance with the FAR and CAS, compliance with certain unique contract clauses and audits of certain aspects of our internal control systems. Based on the information received to date, we do not believe ~~the~~any completed or ongoing government audits will have a material adverse impact on our results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

Legacy U.S. Government Matters

Between 2002 and 2011, we provided significant support to the U.S. Army and other U.S. government agencies in support of the war in Iraq under the LogCAP III contract. We have been in the process of closing out the LogCAP III contract since 2011, and we expect the contract closeout process to continue for at least another year. As a result of our work under LogCAP III, there are claims and disputes pending between us and the U.S. government which need to be resolved in order to close the contract. The contract closeout process includes resolving objections raised by the U.S. government through a billing dispute process referred to as Form 1s and MFRs. We continue to work with the U.S. government to resolve these issues and are engaged in efforts to reach mutually acceptable resolution of these outstanding matters. However, for certain of these matters, we have filed claims with the ASBCA or the COFC. We also have matters related to ongoing litigation or investigations involving U.S. government contracts. We anticipate billing additional labor, vendor resolution and litigation costs as we resolve the open ~~matters.~~

~~Form 1s~~matters in the future.

The ~~U.S.~~Company established a reserve for unallowable costs associated with open government ~~has issued Form 1s questioning or objecting to costs we billed to them under cost reimbursable contracts primarily~~matters related to ~~our use~~the heritage KBR U.S. Government Services business in the amounts of ~~private security~~$33 million and our provision of containerized housing under the LogCAP III contract discussed below. As a consequence of the issuance of the Form 1s, the U.S. government has withheld payment to us on outstanding invoices, pending resolution of these matters.

The U.S. government has issued and has outstanding Form 1s questioning $134 million of billed costs as of September 30, 2019. They had previously paid us $62 million of the questioned costs related to our services on these contracts. The remaining balance of $72$39 million as of September 30, 2019, is included on our condensed balance sheets in “Claims and accounts receivable". In addition, we have withheld $26 million from our subcontractors at September 30, 2019, related to these questioned costs, which is included in "Other current liabilities" on our condensed balance sheets.

While we continue to believe that the amounts we have invoiced the U.S. government are in compliance with our contract terms and that recovery is probable, we also continue to evaluate our ability to recover these amounts as new information becomes known. As is common in the industry, negotiating and resolving these matters is often an involved and lengthy process, which sometimes necessitates the filing of claims or other legal action as discussed above. Concurrent with our continued negotiations with the U.S. government, we await the rulings on the filed claims. We are unable to predict when the rulings will be issued or when the matters will be settled or resolved with the U.S. government.

~~As a result of the Form 1s, and claims discussed above as well as open audits, we have accrued a reserve for unallowable costs of $41 million as of September 30, 2019,~~2020, and December 31, ~~2018.~~2019, respectively. The balance at September 30, 2020, is recorded in “Other liabilities.” The balance at December 31, 2019, is recorded in "Contract liabilities" and "Other liabilities" in the amounts of ~~$25~~$27 million and ~~$16 million, respectively. The balance at December 31, 2018, is recorded in "Contract liabilities" and "Other liabilities" in the amounts of $26 million and $15~~$12 million, respectively.

~~Private Security Contractors.~~ Starting in February 2007, we received a series of Form 1s from the DCAA informing us of the U.S. government's intent to deny reimbursement to us under the LogCAP III cost reimbursable contract for amounts related to the use of PSCs by KBR and a subcontractor in connection with its work for KBR providing dining facility services in Iraq between 2003 and 2006. The government challenged $56 million in billings. The government had previously paid $11 million and has withheld payments of $45 million, which as of September 30, 2019, we have recorded as due from the government related to this matter in "Claims and accounts receivable" on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

On June 16, 2014, we received a decision from the ASBCA which agreed with KBR's position (i) that the LogCAP III contract did not prohibit the use of PSCs to provide force protection to KBR or subcontractor personnel, (ii) that there was a need for force protection and (iii) that the costs were reasonable. The ASBCA also found that the U.S. Army breached its obligation to provide force protection. The U.S. Army appealed the decision.

On June 12, 2017, we received a second ruling from the ASBCA that we are entitled to recover the withheld costs in the approximate amount of $45 million plus interest related to the use of PSCs. The U.S. Army filed a notice of appeal on October 12, 2017. On July 9, 2019 the Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit upheld the ASBCA decision confirming the entire award including interest. Accordingly, we believe that we are entitled to reimbursement by the U.S. Army for the amounts charged by our subcontractors, even if they incurred costs for PSCs. We believe the likelihood that we will incur a loss related to this matter is remote, and therefore we have not accrued any loss provisions related to this matter.

Investigations, Qui Tams and Litigation

The following matters relate to ongoing litigation or federal investigations involving U.S. government contracts. Many of these matters involve allegations of violations of the FCA, which prohibits in general terms fraudulent billings to the U.S. government. Suits brought by private individuals are called "qui tams." We believe the costs of litigation and any damages that may be awarded in the FKTC matters described below are billable under the LogCAP III. All costs billed under LogCAP III are subject to audit by the DCAA for reasonableness.

First Kuwaiti Trading Company arbitration. In April 2008, FKTC, one of our LogCAP III subcontractors providing housing containers, filed for arbitration with the American Arbitration Association all its claims under various LogCAP III subcontracts. After complete hearings on all claims, the arbitration panel awarded FKTC $17 million plus interest for claims involving damages on lost or unreturned vehicles. In addition, we determined that we owe FKTC $32 million in connection with other subcontracts provided we are reimbursed for these same costs by the U.S. government. We previously paid FKTC $19 million and the remaining ~~$30~~$30 million is recorded in "Other current liabilities" on our condensed consolidated balance ~~sheets with pay-when-paid terms in the contract.~~sheets. As of September 30, ~~2019,~~2020, we believe our recorded accruals ~~and the pay-when-paid terms in our contract with FKTC~~ are adequate if we are unable to favorably resolve our claims and disputes against the U.S. government. See "KBR Contract Claim on FKTC containers" below.

Howard qui tam. In March 2011, Geoffrey Howard and Zella Hemphill filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of Illinois alleging that KBR mischarged the government $628 million for unnecessary materials and equipment. In October 2014, the DOJ declined to intervene and the case was partially unsealed. ~~Discovery is ongoing in this case~~Depositions of some DCMA and isKBR personnel have taken place and more were expected to ~~continue into 2020.~~occur in early 2020 but have been postponed due to COVID-19. KBR and the relators filed various motions including a motion to dismiss by KBR. KBR's motion to dismiss was not granted and we are considering appellate options. The deadline for all fact discovery and depositions has been extended due to COVID-19 travel restrictions and related delays and discovery continues. We believe the allegations of fraud by the relators are without merit and, as of September 30, ~~2019,~~2020, 0 amounts have been accrued.

DOJ False Claims Act complaint - Iraq Subcontractor. In January 2014, the DOJ filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of Illinois against KBR and 2 former KBR subcontractors, including FKTC, alleging that 3 former KBR employees were offered and accepted kickbacks from these subcontractors in exchange for favorable treatment in

the award and performance of subcontracts to be awarded during the course of KBR's performance of the LogCAP III contract in Iraq. The complaint alleges that as a result of the kickbacks, KBR submitted invoices with inflated or unjustified subcontract prices, resulting in alleged violations of the FCA and the Anti-Kickback Act. The DOJ's investigation dates back to 2004. We self-reported most of the violations and tendered credits to the U.S. government as appropriate. On May 22, 2014, FKTC filed a motion to dismiss, which the U.S. government opposed. Following the submission of our answer in April 2014, the U.S. government was granted a Motion to Strike certain affirmative defenses in March 2015. We do not believe this limits KBR's ability to fully defend all allegations in this matter.

Discovery for this complaint is now mostly complete. ~~The~~On March 30, 2020, the Court ~~has yet~~granted KBR’s motion to ~~rule~~transfer the case to the Southern District of Texas and the court recently ruled on various discovery motions ~~filed in early 2019 that would affect the scope and venue of the case. The court will set hearing and trial dates after addressing the pending motions which we expect will occur in 2020.~~allowing one additional deposition to take place. As of September 30, ~~2019,~~2020, we have accrued our best estimate of probable loss related to an unfavorable settlement of this matter in "Other liabilities" on our condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Other matters

KBR Contract Claim on FKTC containers. KBR previously filed a claim before the ASBCA to recover the costs paid to FKTC to settle its requests for equitable adjustment. The DCMA had disallowed the majority of those costs. Those contract claims were stayed in 2013 at the request of the DOJ so that they could pursue the FCA case referenced above. Those claims were reinstated in 2016. We tried our contract appeal in September 2017. In November 2018, we received an unfavorable ruling from the ASBCA disallowing all of our costs paid to FKTC. KBR's motion for reconsideration by a senior panel of judges at the ASBCA was denied. KBR filed its brief on appeal in September 2019. ~~We expect oral~~Oral arguments ~~will take place~~occurred in May 2020 and a decision was issued on September 1, 2020. Although the court agreed with KBR that the wrong legal standard was applied by the trial court, the appellate court made its own fact findings on damages based on an incomplete record and denied KBR any recovery. KBR has filed a motion for rehearing. As of September 30, ~~2019,~~2020, we believe our recorded accruals ~~and the pay-when-paid terms in our contract with FKTC~~ are adequate in the event we are unable to favorably resolve our claims and disputes against the government.

Chadian Employee Class Action. In May 2018, former employees of our former Chadian subsidiary, Subsahara Services, Inc. ~~(SSI)~~("SSI"), filed a class action suit claiming unpaid damages arising from the ESSO Chad Development Project for Exxon Mobil Corporation ~~(Exxon)~~("Exxon") dating back to the early ~~2000’s.~~2000s. Exxon is also named as a defendant in the case. The SSI employees previously filed ~~two~~2 class action cases in or around 2005 and 2006 for alleged unpaid overtime and bonuses. The Chadian Labour Court ruled in favor of the SSI employees for unpaid overtime resulting in a settlement of approximately $25 million which was reimbursed by Exxon under its contract with SSI. The second case for alleged unpaid bonuses was ultimately dismissed by the Supreme Court of Chad.

The current case claims $122 million in unpaid bonuses characterized as damages rather than employee bonuses to avoid the previous Chadian Supreme Court dismissal and a 5-year statute of limitations on wage-related claims. SSI’s initial defense was filed and a hearing was held in December 2018. A merits hearing was held in February 2019. In March 2019, the Labour Court issued a decision awarding the plaintiffs approximately $34 million including a $2 million provisional award. ~~SSI~~Exxon and ~~Exxon~~SSI have appealed the award and requested suspension of the provisional award which was approved on April 2, 2019. Exxon and SSI filed a submission to the Court of Appeal on June 21, ~~2019.~~2019 and filed briefs at a hearing on February 28, 2020.

SSI is no longer an existing entity in Chad or the United States. Further, we believe any amounts ultimately paid to the former employees related to this adverse ruling would be reimbursable by Exxon based on the applicable contract.

North West Rail Link Project. We participate in an unincorporated joint venture with two partners to provide engineering and design services in relation to the operations, trains and systems of a metro rail project in Sydney, Australia. The project commenced in 2014 and during its execution encountered delays and disputes resulting in claims and breach notices submitted to

the joint venture by the client. Since November 2018, the client has submitted multiple claims alleging breach of contract and breach of duty by the joint venture in its execution of the services, claiming losses and damages of up to approximately $300 million Australian dollars. We currently believe the gross of amount of the claims significantly exceeds the client’s entitlement as well as the joint venture’s limits of liability under the contract and that the claims will be covered by project-specific professional indemnity insurance subject to deductibles.

~~The joint venture and its client are discussing potential resolution of the claims although no specific course of action has been agreed.~~ In August 2019, the client advised that it has filed legal proceedings in the Supreme Court of New South Wales to preserve its position with regards to statute of limitations. ~~However, the~~The joint venture ~~has yet~~was served a notice of proceedings in November 2019 and an initial hearing was expected to ~~be served.~~occur in April 2020 but was postponed. The client submitted an amended statement on May 28, 2020 claiming damages of $301 million Australian dollars but did not provide any detail to support that sum. KBR has a 33% participation interest in the joint venture and the partners have joint and several liability with respect to all obligations under the contract. As of September 30, ~~2019,~~2020, we have reserved an amount that is immaterial for this matter. However, it is reasonably possible that we may ultimately be required to pay material amounts in excess of reserves. At this time, fact discovery and expert review are ~~evaluating~~still ongoing. Additionally, we have not received substantiation of the ~~claims and contractual terms~~client’s alleged damages and therefore, ~~we are unable to reasonably~~a more precise estimate ~~the potential outcome related to~~cannot be made at this ~~matter. Discussions between the~~time. The joint venture, joint venture insurers, and ~~its~~ client are ~~ongoing.~~ engaged in discussions concerning potential resolution of the claims.

Note ~~16.~~15. Leases

We enter into lease arrangements primarily for real estate, project equipment, transportation and information technology assets in the normal course of our business operations. Real estate leases accounted for approximately ~~91%~~84% of our lease obligations at September 30, ~~2019.~~2020. An arrangement is determined to be a lease at inception if it conveys the right to control the use of identified property and equipment for a period of time in exchange for consideration. We have elected not to recognize ana ROU asset and lease liability for leases with an initial term of 12 months or less. Many of our equipment leases, primarily associated with the performance of projects for U.S. government customers, include 1 or more renewal option periods, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term in one year increments. The exercise of these lease renewal options is at our sole discretion and is generally dependent on the period of project performance, or extension thereof, determined by our customers. When it is reasonably certain that we will exercise the option, we include the impact of the option in the lease term ~~for purpose of determining~~to determine total future lease payments. AsBecause most of our lease agreements do not explicitly state the discount rate, ~~implicit in the lease,~~ we use our incremental borrowing rate on the 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 ROU asset and lease liability. Other variable lease payments, such as usage-based amounts, 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.

In addition to the base rent, real estate leases typically contain provisions for common-area maintenance and other similar services, which are considered non-lease components for accounting purposes. We exclude these non-lease components in calculating the ROU asset and lease liability for real estate leases and expense them as incurred. For all other types of leases, non-lease components are included in calculating our ROU assets and lease liabilities.

The components of lease costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 were as follows:

Note ~~18.~~17. Share Repurchases

Authorized Share Repurchase Program

On February 25, 2014, our Board of Directors authorized a plan to repurchase up to $350 million of our outstanding shares of common stock, which plan replaced and terminated the August 26, 2011 share repurchase program. As of December 31, 2019, $160 million remained available under this authorization. On February 19, 2020, our Board of Directors authorized an increase of approximately $190 million to our share repurchase program, returning the authorization level to $350 million. The authorization does not obligate us to acquire any particular number of shares of common stock and may be commenced, suspended or discontinued without prior notice. The share repurchases are intended to be funded through our current and future cash and the authorization does not have an expiration date.

Withheld to Cover Program

We have in place a "withheld to cover" program, which allows us to withhold common shares from employees in connection with the settlement of income tax and related benefit withholding obligations arising from the issuance of share-based equity awards under the KBR, Inc. 2006 Stock and Incentive Plan.

The table below presents information on our share repurchases activity under ~~these programs:~~this program:

Note ~~19.~~18. Income (loss) per Share

Basic income (loss) per share is based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive income (loss) per share includes additional common shares that would have been outstanding if potential common shares with a dilutive effect had been issued using the treasury stock method.

A reconciliation of the number of shares used for the basic and diluted income per share calculations is as follows:


	Three Months Ended September 30,		Nine Months Ended September 30,		Three Months Ended September 30,		Nine Months Ended September 30,
Shares in millions	2019	2018	2019	2018	2020	2019	2020	2019
Basic weighted average common shares outstanding	141	141	141	140	142	141	142	141
Stock options and restricted shares	1	—	—	1
Stock options, restricted shares, and convertible debt					0	1	0	0
Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding	142	141	141	141	142	142	142	141

For purposes of applying the two-class method in computing income (loss) per share, there were ~~$0.4~~$0.3 million and ~~$1.1 million~~0 net earnings allocated to participating securities, or a negligible amount per share and ~~$0.01 per share,~~NaN for the three and nine months ended September 30, ~~2019,~~2020, respectively. Net earnings allocated to participating securities for the three and nine months ended September 30, ~~2018~~2019 were $0.4 million and ~~$1.5~~$1.1 million, respectively, or a negligible amount per share and $0.01 per share, respectively. The diluted income (loss) per share calculation did not include 1.2 million antidilutive weighted average shares for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020. The diluted income per share calculation did not include 1.0 million and 1.3 million antidilutive weighted average shares for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively. ~~The diluted income per share calculation did not include 1.4 million and 1.6 million antidilutive weighted average shares for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively.~~

Note ~~20.~~19. Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Risk Management

Fair value measurements. The fair value of an asset or liability is the price that would be received to sell an asset or transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Company utilizes a fair value hierarchy that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value and defines three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, or inputs derived from observable market data. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

The carrying amount of cash and equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable, as reflected in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, approximates fair value due to the short-term maturities of these financial instruments. The carrying values and estimated fair values of our financial instruments that are not required to be recorded at fair value in our condensed consolidated balance sheets are provided in the following table.



		September 30, 2020				December 31, 2019
Dollars in millions		Carrying Value		Fair Value		Carrying Value		Fair Value
Liabilities (including current maturities):
Term Loan A	Level 2	$	277	$	277	$	176	$	176
Term Loan B	Level 2	518		513		756		764
Convertible Notes	Level 2	350		396		350		466
Senior Notes	Level 2	250		252		0		0
Nonrecourse project debt	Level 2	12		12		18		18

See Note 11 "Debt and Other Credit Facilities" for further discussion of our term loans, convertibles notes, and nonrecourse project debt.

The following disclosures for foreign currency risk and interest rate risk includes the fair value hierarchy levels for our assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

Foreign currency risk. We conduct business globally in numerous currencies and are therefore exposed to foreign currency fluctuations. We may use derivative instruments to reduce the volatility of earnings and cash flows associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates. We do not use derivative instruments for speculative trading purposes. We generally utilize foreign exchange forwards and currency option contracts to hedge exposures associated with forecasted future cash flows and to hedge exposures present on our balance sheet.

As of September 30, ~~2019,~~2020, the gross notional value of our foreign currency exchange forwards and option contracts used to hedge balance sheet exposures was ~~$59~~$42 million, all of which had durations of 2115 days or less. We also had approximately

$46 million (gross notional value) of cash flow hedges which had durations of 10 months or less. The cash flow hedges are primarily related to the British Pound.

The fair value of our balance sheet and cash flow hedges included in "Other current assets" and "Other current liabilities" on our condensed consolidated balance sheets was immaterial at September 30, ~~2019,~~2020, and December 31, ~~2018.~~2019. The fair values of these derivatives are considered Level 2 under ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, as they are based on quoted prices directly observable in active markets.

The following table summarizes the recognized changes in fair value of our balance sheet hedges offset by remeasurement of balance sheet positions. These amounts are recognized in our condensed consolidated statements of operations for the periods presented. The net of our changes in fair value of hedges and the remeasurement of our assets and liabilities is included in "Other non-operating income (expense)" on our condensed consolidated statements of operations.

Interest rate risk. ~~The Company uses~~We use interest rate swaps to reduce interest rate risk and to manage net interest ~~expense. On~~expense by converting our LIBOR-rate based loans into fixed-rate loans. In October ~~10,~~ 2018, we entered into interest rate swap agreements with a notional value of $500 million, ~~to manage~~which are effective beginning October 2018 and mature in September 2022. Under the ~~interest rate exposure on our variable rate loans. By entering into~~October 2018 swap agreements, ~~the Company converted the LIBOR rate based liability into~~we receive a ~~fixed rate liability for a four year period. Under the swap agreements, the Company receives one month~~one-month LIBOR rate and ~~pays~~pay a monthly a fixed rate of 3.055% for the term of the swaps. In March 2020, we entered into additional swap agreements with a notional value of $400 million, which are effective beginning October 2022 and mature in January 2027. Under the March 2020 swap agreements, we will receive a one-month LIBOR rate and pay a monthly fixed rate of 0.965% for the term of the swaps. Our interest rate swaps are reported at fair value using Level 2 inputs. The fair value of the interest rate swaps at September 30, ~~2019,~~2020, was ~~$25~~$39 million, of which $7$15 million is included in "Other current liabilities" and ~~$18~~$24 million is included in "Other ~~liabilities".~~liabilities." The unrealized net losses on these interest rate swaps was ~~$25~~$39 million and is included in "AOCL" as of September 30, ~~2019.~~2020. The fair value of the interest rate swaps at December 31, ~~2018~~2019 was ~~$12~~$21 million, of which $3$8 million is included in "Other current liabilities" and $9$13 million is included in "Other ~~liabilities".~~liabilities." The unrealized net losses on these interest rate swaps was ~~$12~~$21 million and included in "AOCL" as of December 31, ~~2018.~~2019.

~~Note 21. Impact on Previously Issued Financial Statements for the Correction of an Error~~

~~During the second quarter ended June 30, 2019, we identified and corrected immaterial errors affecting previously issued financial statements~~Credit Losses.We are exposed to credit losses primarily related to ~~the historical recognition of equity earnings associated with~~ our ~~interest in an unconsolidated joint venture~~professional services, project delivery, and technologies offered in our ES and TS business ~~segment. These errors were~~segments. We do not consider our GS business segment to be at risk for credit losses because substantially all services within this segment are provided to agencies of the U.S., U.K. and Australian governments. We determined our allowance for credit losses by using a loss-rate methodology, in which we assessed our historical write-off of receivables against our total receivables and contract asset balances over several years. From this historical loss-rate approach, we also considered the current and forecasted economic conditions expected to be in place over the life of our receivables and contract assets.

We monitor our ongoing credit exposure through an active review of our customers’ receivables balance against contract terms and due dates. Our activities include timely performance of our accounts receivable reconciliations, assessment of our aging of receivables, dispute resolution and payment confirmation. We also monitor any change in our historical write-off of receivables utilized in our loss-rate methodology and assess for any forecasted change in market conditions to adjust our credit reserve.

At September 30, 2020, our ES and TS business segments that are subject to credit risk reported approximately $451 million of financial assets consisting primarily ~~due~~of accounts receivable and contract assets, net of allowances of $12 million. Although there continues to be an economic disruption resulting from the impact of ~~improperly calculated gains~~COVID-19 and ~~losses on foreign currency transactions from 2013 through~~ the ~~first quarter of 2019.~~

~~As of March 31, 2019, the cumulative error for all periods previously reported was an overstatement of net income of approximately $23 million impacting “Equity~~decline in ~~and advances to unconsolidated affiliates”~~energy markets in 2020, changes in our consolidated balance sheets and “Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates” in our consolidated statements of operations. The errors had no impact on our previously reported cash flows. We assessed the materiality, both quantitatively and qualitatively, in accordance with the SEC’s SAB No. 99 and SAB No. 108, and concluded these errors werecredit loss reserve was not material ~~to any of our previously issued quarterly or annual financial statements. In order to correctly present~~for the ~~errors noted above, previously issued financials statements have been revised and are presented as “As Corrected” in the tables below.~~

~~The effect of the above corrections on the consolidated statement of operations for three and~~ nine months ended September 30, ~~2018~~2020. Based on an aging analysis at September 30, 2020, 80% of our accounts receivable related to these segments were outstanding less than 90 days.

Sales of Receivables. From time to time, we sell certain receivables to unrelated third-party financial institutions under various accounts receivable monetization programs. The receivables sold under the agreements do not allow for recourse if such receivables are not collected by our counterparties. The Company accounts for these receivable transfers under the third-party financial institutions as ~~follow:~~a sale under ASC Topic 860, Transfers and Servicing, and has derecognized $61 million of accounts receivables from the balance sheet under these agreements. The fair value of the sold receivables approximated their book value due to their short-term nature. The fees incurred are presented in “Other non-operating (loss) income” on the condensed consolidated statements of operations.

On September 21, 2020, the Company entered into a Master Accounts Receivable Purchase Agreement (the “RPA”) with MUFG Bank, Ltd. (“MUFG”), which provides for the sale to MUFG of certain of our designated eligible receivables, with a significant portion of such receivables being owed by the U.S. government. Under the RPA, the Company can sell eligible receivables up to a maximum amount of $150 million. The receivables sold under the RPA are without recourse for any credit risk or financial inability to pay any of the customers. The RPA has an initial term of one year, which will automatically renew annually unless terminated by either party During the quarter ended September 30, 2020, the Company sold certain receivables totaling $13 million under the RPA. Subsequent to the end of third quarter of 2020, the Company sold additional receivables to partially fund the acquisition of Centauri. See Note 4 "Acquisitions" for further discussion on this acquisition.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15, Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract. This ASU requires customers in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract to capitalize certain implementation costs as if the arrangement was an internal-use software project. ASU No. 2018-15 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2018-15 to have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-14, Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Defined Benefit Plans. This ASU amends ASC 715 to add, remove and clarify certain disclosure requirements related to defined benefit pension and other ~~postretirement~~post-retirement plans. ASU No. 2018-14 is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. We do not expect the adoption of ASU No. 2018-14 to have any impact on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In ~~August 2018,~~December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. ~~2018-13, Disclosure Framework - Changes~~2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes.

In ~~January 2017,~~March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. ~~2017-04, Intangibles~~2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350) - Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. This ASU eliminates Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. In addition, income tax effects from any tax deductible goodwill on the carrying amountFacilitation of the reporting unit should be considered when measuring the goodwill impairment loss, if applicable. The amendments also eliminate the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment and, if it fails that qualitative test, to perform Step 2Effects of the ~~goodwill impairment test.

Early adoption is permitted for annual periods after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those annual periods. Weprospectively, we are currently in the process of assessing the optional expedient allowing an entity to assume that the hedged forecasted transaction in a cash flow hedge is probable of occurring. As reference rate reform is still an ongoing process, we will continue to evaluate the timing and potential impact of adoption for other optional expedients when deemed necessary.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-06, Debt-Debt Conversion and other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Equity's Own Equity. The amendments in this update affect entities that issue convertible instruments and/or

contracts indexed to and potentially settled in an entity's own equity. The new ASU eliminates the beneficial conversion and cash conversion accounting models for convertible instruments. It also amends the accounting for certain contracts in an entity’s own equity that are currently accounted for as derivatives because of specific settlement provisions. In addition, the new guidance modifies how particular convertible instruments and certain contracts that may be settled in cash or shares impact the diluted EPS computation. For public entities, this ASU ~~on our financial statements.~~is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within those years. Early adoption is permitted. We ~~have not yet determined the effect of the standard on our ongoing financial reporting or~~are currently evaluating the future impact of adoption ~~on known trends, demands, uncertainties and events in our business.~~of this standard.

Demand for our ~~technologies,~~ solutions and services is highly correlated to the level of capital and operating expenditures of our customers and prevailing market conditions. ~~Significant volatility~~Clients continue to prioritize investment in ~~commodity prices in recent~~

solutions to increase end-product flexibility and energy efficiency and reduce their environmental footprint.

years has resulted in many of our hydrocarbons customers taking steps to defer, suspend or terminate capital expenditures, resulting in delayed or reduced volumes of business across the sector. Recently, the combination of a growing global economy, technological development, and abundant sources of competitively priced feedstock are driving an increase in capital investment opportunities being evaluated and funded by our hydrocarbons customers. For example, we continue to see opportunities for midstream LNG expansion and greenfield projects to satisfy future LNG demand driven in large part by environmental policies promoting a transition from coal to cleaner burning natural gas. Additionally, downstream projects such as petrochemical, chemical and fertilizer producers benefit from low feedstock prices and increasing global development and consumer demand. From conceptual development studies to project delivery and asset management services, we seek to collaborate with our customers to meet the demands of the global economy.Our Business

Overall, we believe we have a balanced portfolio of global professional services ~~program delivery~~ and technologies across a wide government, defense and industrial base. Our business is organized into three core and two non-core business segments as follows:

Core business segments

• Government Solutions

• Technology Solutions

• Energy Solutions

Non-core business segments

• Non-strategic Business

• Other

See additional information on our business segments, including detail with respect to changes to our reportable segments in Notes 1 and 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Company has initiated a strategic transition from its current three-core business segment model to a two-core business segment model comprised of Government Solutions and Technology Solutions. This transition will occur over the ~~government services~~remainder of 2020. The core component of the new Technology Solutions segment will be the Company's proprietary process technologies. It will also include the Company’s advisory practice focused on energy transition and ~~hydrocarbons markets. We believe our increased mix of recurring government services~~net-zero carbon ambitions as well as the technology-led industrial solutions focused on innovative digital operations and ~~hydrocarbons services offers stability~~maintenance solutions and ~~predictability that enables us~~advanced remote operations capabilities to ~~be highly selective~~improve throughput, reliability and ~~disciplined in our pursuit of EPC projects across hydrocarbons markets.~~environmental sustainability.

The difference between the effective tax rate of (51)% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and the statutory rate was caused by goodwill and asset impairment charges incurred during the period. Excluding the impact of the certain goodwill and asset impairments, our tax rate was 27% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The effective tax rate of 28% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was primarily impacted by the rate differential on our foreign earnings ~~including~~and equity in losses, of certain unconsolidated affiliates for which noany tax ~~benefit is available.

GS revenues ~~increased~~decreased by ~~$513~~$126 million, or ~~21%~~4%, to $2.9 billion in the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $3.0 billion in the nine months ended September 30, 2019. This decrease was primarily driven by the completion of disaster recovery services provided to the U.S. Air Force in 2019, ~~compared~~lower work volume on the LogCAP IV project primarily in the Middle East and the reduction in revenues on the construction component of the Aspire Defence project in the U.K. which is nearing completion. These decreases were partially offset by growth of human performance and behavioral health services provided to ~~$2.5 billion~~the U.S. Special Operations Command and services provided to NASA, increased engineering services on various other U.S. government programs such as LogCAP V Northern Command, a new award from the U.K. MoD in late 2019 for the provision of services in the Middle East, and overall growth of our Australian business including the acquisition of SMA in March 2020.

GS gross profit increased by $58 million, or 19%, to $370 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2018. This increase was primarily primarily driven by strong organic growth within our GS business primarily due to disaster recovery services provided in 2019 on our AFCAP IV project, expanded services and the startup of new programs, and revenues from SGT acquired in April 2018. See Note 4 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for more information on the acquisition of SGT.

~~GS gross profit increased by $59 million, or 23%,~~2020, compared to $312 million in the nine months ended September 30, ~~2019, compared to $253 million~~2019. The increase was driven by improved profitability on the Aspire project as uncertainties associated with index-based price adjustments dissipate, and volume growth on the newly awarded LogCAP V Northern Command project. These increases were offset by lower work volume on the LogCAP IV project primarily in the ~~nine months ended September 30, 2018. This increase was primarily due~~Middle East, and completion of disaster recovery services provided to ~~revenue growth and higher profitability from~~ the ~~Aspire Defence project~~U.S. Air Force in ~~the U.K.~~2019.

TS revenues ~~increased~~decreased by ~~$66~~$49 million, or ~~31%~~17%, to $232 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $281 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2019, primarily driven by higher mix of license revenue in 2020 compared to ~~$215~~2019.

TS gross profit decreased by $1 million, or 1%, to $82 million in the nine months ended September 30, ~~2018, primarily due to higher proprietary equipment sales.~~

~~TS gross profit increased by $6 million, or 8%,~~2020, compared to $83 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2019, ~~compared~~primarily due to ~~$77 million~~higher mix of license revenue offset by one-time settlements in the ~~nine months ended September 30, 2018, primarily driven by increased revenue volume at~~first half of 2020 and lower ~~gross profit margins.~~overall overhead spend.

ES revenues increased by ~~$25~~$286 million, or 3%31%, to $1.2 billion in the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $919 million in the nine months ended September 30, ~~2019, compared~~2019. The increase was largely attributable to ~~$894~~new awards and the ramp-up of existing projects along the U.S. Gulf Coast and Mexico.

ES gross profit decreased by $26 million, or 32%, to $55 million in the nine months ended September 30, ~~2018. The increase was primarily due~~2020, compared to ~~the ramp up of recently awarded projects along the U.S. Gulf Coast and expansion of services internationally.~~

~~ES gross profit decreased by $22 million, or 22%, to $80~~$81 million in the nine months ended September 30, ~~2019, compared to $102 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2018.~~2019. This decrease was ~~primarily~~ due to an unfavorable project mix in 2020 primarily in the U.S., reductions in project services provided to a joint venture in the Asia and the non-recurrence of a favorable close-out of an EPC project in the ~~recognition of~~U.S. in 2019. These decreases were partially offset by higher volume and a favorable change in variable consideration ~~associated with the successful completion~~resulting from resolution of ~~an Australian~~a contingency on a completed LNG project ~~in 2018.~~during the first quarter of 2020.

ES equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates decreased by ~~$16~~$7 million ~~or 50%,~~ to $9 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to earnings of $16 million in the nine months ended September 30, ~~2019, compared to earnings of $32 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2018.~~2019. This decrease was primarily due to ~~reduced activity~~the completion of a North Sea project in 2019 and lower earnings from an ~~unfavorable legal ruling on our Ichthys LNG project recorded~~industrial services joint venture in ~~early 2019.

Changes in Estimates

Information relating to our changes in estimates is discussed in Note 21 “Basis of Presentation” to our condensed consolidated financial statements. See Note 96 “Unapproved Change Orders, and Claims, Against Clients and Estimated Recoveries of Claims Against Suppliers and Subcontractors” to our condensed consolidated financial statements for more information on the Ichthys ~~JV.~~LNG project.

Backlog of Unfilled Orders

Backlog generally represents the dollar amount of revenues we expect to realize in the future as a result of performing work on contracts and our pro-rata share of work to be performed by unconsolidated joint ventures. We generally include total expected revenues in backlog when a contract is awarded under a legally binding agreement. In many instances, arrangements included in backlog are complex, nonrepetitive and may fluctuate over the contract period due to the release of contracted work in phases by the customer. Additionally, nearly all contracts allow customers to terminate the agreement at any time for convenience. Where contract duration is indefinite and clients can terminate for convenience without compensating us for periods beyond the date of termination, backlog is limited to the estimated amount of expected revenues within the following twelve months. Certain contracts provide maximum dollar limits, with actual authorization to perform work under the contract agreed upon on a periodic basis with the customer. In these arrangements, only the amounts authorized are included in backlog. For projects where we act solely in a project management capacity, we only include the expected value of our services in backlog.

We define backlog, as it relates to U.S. government contracts, as our estimate of the remaining future revenue from existing signed contracts over the remaining base contract performance period (including customer approved option periods) for which work scope and price have been agreed with the customer. We define funded backlog as the portion of backlog for which funding currently is appropriated, less the amount of revenue we have previously recognized. We define unfunded backlog as the total backlog less the funded backlog. Our GS backlog does not include any estimate of future potential delivery orders that might be awarded under our government-wide acquisition contracts, agency-specific indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity contracts, or other multiple-award contract vehicles nor does it include option periods that have not been exercised by the customer.

Within our GS business segment, we calculate estimated backlog for long-term contracts associated with the U.K. government's PFIs based on the aggregate amount that our client would contractually be obligated to pay us over the life of the project. We update our estimates of the future work to be executed under these contracts on a quarterly basis and adjust backlog if necessary.

We have included in the table below our proportionate share of unconsolidated joint ventures' estimated backlog. ~~Since~~Because these projects are accounted for under the equity method, only our share of future earnings from these projects will be recorded in our results of operations. Our proportionate share of backlog for projects related to unconsolidated joint ventures totaled ~~$2.8~~$2.5 billion at September 30, ~~2019,~~2020, and ~~$3.0~~$2.6 billion at December 31, ~~2018.~~2019. Our backlog included in the table below for projects related to consolidated joint ventures with noncontrolling interests includes 100% of the backlog associated with those joint ventures and totaled ~~$5.1 billion~~$53 million and ~~$5.3 billion~~$78 million at September 30, ~~2019~~2020 and December 31, ~~2018,~~2019, respectively.

The following table summarizes our backlog by business segment as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively:

was primarily due to management's decision to discontinue pursuing certain projectstotaling approximating $1.2 billion. The remaining decrease was due to workoff, net of new awards during the period. For further discussion, see Notes 1 and 7 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

We estimate that as of September 30, ~~2019, 34%~~2020, 31% of our backlog will be executed within one year. Of this amount, 87% will be recognized in revenues on our condensed consolidated statement of operations and 13% will be recorded by our unconsolidated joint ventures. As of September 30, ~~2019, $48~~2020, $68 million of our backlog relates to active contracts that are in a loss position.

As of September 30, ~~2019, 13%~~2020, 10% of our backlog was attributable to fixed-price contracts, ~~47%~~53% was attributable to PFIs and ~~40% of our backlog~~37% was attributable to cost-reimbursable contracts. For contracts that contain both fixed-price and cost-reimbursable components, we classify the individual components as either fixed-price or cost-reimbursable according to the composition of the contract; however, for smaller contracts, we characterize the entire contract based on the predominant component. As of September 30, ~~2019, $9.1~~2020, $8.9 billion of our GS backlog was currently funded by our customers.

As of September 30, ~~2019,~~2020, we had approximately ~~$2.5~~$3.0 billion of priced option periods for U.S. government contracts that are not included in the backlog amounts presented above.

The difference between backlog of ~~$14.6~~$12.8 billion and the remaining performance obligation as defined by ASC 606 of ~~$11.2~~$9.9 billion is primarily due to our proportionate share of backlog related to unconsolidated joint ventures which is not included in our remaining performance obligation. See Note 3 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for discussion of the remaining performance obligation.

Transactions with Joint Ventures

We perform many of our projects through incorporated and unincorporated joint ventures. In addition to participating as a joint venture partner, we often provide engineering, procurement, construction, operations or maintenance services to the joint venture as a subcontractor. Where we provide services to a joint venture that we control and therefore consolidate for financial reporting purposes, we eliminate intercompany revenues and expenses on such transactions. In situations where we account for our interest in the joint venture under the equity method of accounting, we do not eliminate any portion of our subcontractor revenues or expenses. We recognize the profit on our services provided to joint ventures that we consolidate and joint ventures that we record under the equity method of accounting primarily using the percentage-of-completion method. See Note 109 to our condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for more information. The information discussed therein is incorporated by reference into this Part I, Item 2.

Legal Proceedings

Information relating to various commitments and contingencies is described in Notes 1413 and 1514 to our condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and the information discussed therein is incorporated by reference into this Part I, Item 2.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is provided by available cash and equivalents, cash generated from operations, our Senior Credit Facility and access to financial markets. Our operating cash flow can vary significantly from year to year and is affected by the mix, terms, timing and stage of completion of our projects. We often receive cash in the early phases of our larger fixed-price projects, technology projects, and those of our consolidated joint ventures in advance of incurring related costs. On reimbursable contracts, we may utilize cash on hand or availability under our Senior Credit Facility to satisfy any periodic operating cash requirements for working capital as we incur costs and subsequently invoice our customers.

ES services projects generally require us to provide credit support for our performance obligations to our customers in the form of letters of credit, surety bonds or guarantees. Our ability to obtain new project awards in the future may be dependent on our ability to maintain or increase our letter of credit and surety bonding capacity, which may be further dependent on the timely release of existing letters of credit and surety bonds. As the need for credit support arises, letters of credit will be issued under our ~~$500 million PLOC or our $500 million~~$1 billion Revolver under ~~the~~our Senior Credit Facility. Letters of credit may also be arranged with our banks on a bilateral, syndicated or other basis. ~~We believe~~

As discussed in Note 11 "Debt and Other Credit Facilities" of our condensed consolidated financial statements, we ~~have adequate letter of credit capacity under the~~amended our Senior Credit Facility on February 7, 2020, reducing the applicable margins and ~~bilateral lines, as well as adequate surety bond capacity under our existing lines to support our operations, and backlog for~~commitment fees associated with the ~~next 12 months.~~

Cash generated from operations and the Senior Credit Facility are our primary sources of liquidity. Our operating cash flow can vary significantly from year to year and is affected by the mix, terms, timing and percentage of completion of our hydrocarbons services projects. Certain projects may receive cash in the early phases of our larger hydrocarbons services fixed-price projects, technology projects, and those of our consolidated joint ventures in advance of incurring related costs. On reimbursable contracts, we may utilize cash on hand or availabilityvarious borrowings under the facility. Additionally, the amendment extended maturity dates with respect to the Revolver, PLOC and Term Loan A to February 2025 and Term Loan B to February 2027. On July 2, 2020, we amended our Senior Credit Facility to ~~satisfy any periodic operating cash requirements~~convert the $500 million capacity formerly available under our PLOC to our Revolver, thereby increasing our Revolver capacity from $500 million to $1 billion. On September 14, 2020, we further amended our Senior Credit Facility to modify the definition and calculation of Consolidated EBITDA (as defined therein) to provide for ~~working capital, as we frequently incur costs~~more flexibility in permitting pro forma cost reductions resulting from certain corporate transactions. The aggregate amount under our Senior Credit Facility remains $1.795 billion and ~~subsequently invoice our customers.~~all other terms and conditions remain unchanged. We believe that existing cash balances, internally generated cash flows, ~~and~~ availability under ~~the~~our Senior Credit Facility and other lines of credit are sufficient to support our ~~day-to-day domestic and foreign~~ business operations for ~~at least~~ the next 12 months.

As of September 30, 2020, we were in compliance with all financial covenants related to our debt agreements.

Cash and equivalents totaled ~~$681~~$949 million at September 30, ~~2019,~~2020, and ~~$739~~$712 million at December 31, ~~2018~~2019, and consisted of the following:


	September 30,		December 31,		September 30,		December 31,
Dollars in millions	2019		2018		2020		2019
Domestic U.S. cash	$	222	$	211	$	566	$	207
International cash	135		210		199		245
Joint venture and Aspire project cash	324		318
Joint venture and Aspire Defence project cash					184		260
Total	$	681	$	739	$	949	$	712

Our cash balances are held in numerous accounts throughout the world to fund our global activities. Domestic cash relates to cash balances held by U.S. entities and is largely used to support project activities of those businesses as well as general corporate needs such as the payment of dividends to shareholders, repayment of debt and potential repurchases of our outstanding common stock.

Our international cash balances may be available for general corporate purposes but are subject to local restrictions, such as capital adequacy requirements and ~~local obligations, including~~ maintaining sufficient cash balances to support our ~~underfunded~~ U.K. pension plan and other obligations incurred in the normal course of business by those foreign entities. Repatriations of our undistributed foreign earnings are generally free of U.S. tax but may incur withholding and/or state taxes. ~~In assessing the amount of cash to be repatriated, we~~We consider our future U.S. and non-U.S. cash needs ~~such~~ as 1) our anticipated foreign working capital requirements, including funding of our U.K. pension plan, 2) the expected growth opportunities across all geographical markets and 3) our plans to invest in strategic growth opportunities, ~~that~~which may include acquisitions around the world, ~~among other things. As of September 30, 2019, we have not changed our indefinite reinvestment decision on our undistributed~~including whether foreign earnings ~~of our foreign subsidiaries.~~are permanently reinvested.

Joint venture cash and Aspire Defence project cash balances reflect the amounts held by joint venture entities that we consolidate for financial reporting purposes. These amounts are limited to those entities' activities and are not readily available for general corporate purposes; however, portions of such amounts may become available to us in the future should there be a distribution of dividends to the joint venture ~~partners including us.~~partners. We expect that the majority of the joint venture cash balances will be utilized for the corresponding joint venture projects.

As of September 30, ~~2019,~~2020, substantially all of our excess cash was held in commercial bank time deposits or interest bearing short-term investment accounts with the primary objectives of preserving capital and maintaining liquidity.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes our cash flows for the periods indicated:

Operating Activities. Cash flows from operating activities result primarily from earnings and are affected by changes in operating assets and liabilities which consist primarily of working capital balances for projects. Working capital levels vary from year to year and are primarily affected by the Company's volume of work. These levels are also impacted by the mix, stage of completion and commercial terms of ~~hydrocarbon services~~ projects. Working capital requirements also vary by project depending on the type of client and location throughout the world. Most contracts require payments as the projects progress. Additionally, certain projects receive advance payments from clients. A normal trend for these projects is to have higher cash balances during the initial phases of execution which then decline to equal project earnings at the end of the construction phase. As a result, our cash position is reduced as customer advances are worked off, unless they are replaced by advances on other projects.

The primary components of our working capital accounts are accounts receivable, contract assets, accounts payable and contract liabilities. These components are impacted by the size and changes in the mix of our cost reimbursable versus fixed price projects, and as a result, fluctuations in these components are not uncommon in our business.

Cash provided by operations totaled ~~$199~~$245 million in the first nine months of ~~2019~~2020 as compared to net ~~income~~loss of ~~$150~~$71 million. The difference ~~primarily results from~~is principally the result of non-cash restructuring charges and asset impairments in addition to net changes in working capital balances for projects impacting operating cash flows as discussed below:

~~The $123 million~~Accounts receivable unfavorable cash flow impact ~~related to accounts receivable was~~of $50 million primarily related to increases in accounts receivable in our GS U.S. operations partially offset by increased ~~billing volume due to the ramp up of recently awarded cost-reimbursable and EPC~~collections on certain projects ~~within~~in our ES business segment.

~~The $52 million unfavorable~~Contract assets favorable cash flow impact ~~related to contract assets~~of $49 million was largely attributable to ~~higher activity~~increased billings on U.S. government projects in our ~~ES business segment as well as increased sales in our TS~~GS business segment.

~~The $83 million~~Accounts payable favorable cash flow impact ~~related~~of $15 million was largely attributable to ~~increased accounts payable~~timing of payments on certain U.S. government contracts and several projects in the U.S. ~~and Middle East~~ in our ES business ~~segment as well as various~~segment.

Contract liabilities unfavorable cash flow impact of $124 million was primarily due to progress against project advances on the Aspire Defence project and U.S. government projects in our GS business segment and certain projects within our TS and ES business segment.


•	~~The~~ ~~$82 millionfavorable~~ ~~cash flow impact related to contract liabilities was primarily due to advances related to growth and ramp up of new EPC and services projects primarily in the U.S. in our ES business segment.~~

In addition, we received distributions of earnings from our unconsolidated affiliates of ~~$64~~$35 million and contributed ~~$31~~$33 million to our pension funds in the first nine months of ~~2019.~~

Cash provided by operations totaled $36 million in the first nine months of 2018 primarily resulting from the non-cash gain on consolidation of Aspire subcontracting entities of $113 million and net unfavorable changes of $139 million in working capital balances for projects as discussed below:

Accounts receivable unfavorable cash flow impact was primarily related to increases in accounts receivable in our GS U.S. operations, increases in accounts receivable in the consolidated Aspire Defence subcontracting entities, since the date we obtained control, and increases in our ES business segment.

Contract assets unfavorable cash flow impact in the first nine months in 2018 was primarily due to increases in contract assets related to various projects in our ES business segment, partially offset by decreases in contract assets in our TS and GS businesses.

Accounts payable favorable cash flow impact in the first nine months in 2018 was primarily related to an increase in accounts payable related to our consolidated Aspire Defence subcontracting entities, since the date we obtained control and growth in our business on various other U.S. government projects. This increase was partially offset by decreases in accounts payable related to our ES business segment.

Contract liabilities unfavorable cash flow impact in the first nine months in 2018 was primarily related to workoff on projects nearing completion within our ES business segment and various projects in our GS business segment.

~~We received distributions of earnings from our unconsolidated affiliates of $16 million and contributed $30 million to our pension funds in the first nine months in 2018.~~2020.

Investing Activities. Cash used in investing activities totaled ~~$148~~$38 million in the first nine months of ~~2019 and was primarily due to investment in JKC. See Note 9 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for discussion of the Ichthys Project and our investment contributions to JKC.~~

~~Cash used in investing activities totaled $428 million in the first nine months of 2018~~2020 and was primarily due to the acquisition of ~~SGT~~SMA and ~~investment contributions to JKC, partially offset by~~funding our proportionate share of JKC's ongoing legal and commercial costs.

Financing Activities. Cash ~~used in~~provided by financing activities totaled ~~$97~~$41 million in the first nine months of ~~2019~~2020 and was primarily due to ~~$54~~approximately $245 million of net proceeds from our Senior Notes offering offset by $156 million in net payments on borrowings related to the refinancing of our Senior Credit Facility, and ~~$34~~$40 million ~~for~~of dividend payments to common shareholders.

~~Cash provided by financing activities totaled $552 million in the first nine months of 2018~~ See Note 11 "Debt and primarily includes $1.1 billion in borrowings on Term Loans A and B, $250 million in borrowings from the Revolver, offset by $605 million of payments on borrowings, $47 million in debt issuance costs, $56 million to acquire the noncontrolling interest in the Aspire Defence

Future sources of cash. We believe that future sources of cash include cash flows from operations (including accounts receivable monetization arrangements), cash derived from working capital management, and cash borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility.

Future uses of cash. We believe that future uses of cash include working capital requirements, ~~funding of recognized project losses,~~ joint venture capital calls, capital expenditures, dividends, pension funding obligations, repayments of borrowings under our Senior Credit Facility, share repurchases and strategic investments including acquisitions. Our capital expenditures will be focused primarily on facilities and equipment to support our businesses. In addition, we will use cash to make payments under ~~operating~~ leases and various other obligations, including potential litigation payments, as they arise.

Other factors potentially affecting liquidity

Ichthys LNG Project. ~~As discussed in~~In reference to Note 96 "Unapproved Change Orders, and Claims, Against Clients and Estimated Recoveries of Claims Against Suppliers and Subcontractors” to our condensed consolidated financial statements, JKC has included in its project estimates-at-completion significant revenues associated with unapproved change orders and claims against the client as well as estimated recoveries of claims against suppliers and subcontractors. The client has reserved their contractual rights on certain amounts previously funded to JKC and ~~is currently seeking~~may seek recoveries of those ~~amounts. The client continues to withhold payment for certain costs which JKC believes were reimbursable under~~amounts, including calling the ~~terms~~performance and warranty letters of ~~the Ichthys LNG contract. We have funded JKC for our proportionate share of the capital requirements until these matters are resolved.~~credit.

~~In addition,~~ JKC incurred substantial costs to complete the ~~Power Plant~~power plant under the ~~fixed price~~fixed-price portion of the Ichthys LNG contract. JKC believes these costs are recoverable from the Consortium who abandoned their contractual obligation to complete the ~~Power Plant~~power plant as the original subcontractor. We have initiated arbitrations and other legal proceedings to recover these costs which may take several years to resolve. As a result, we funded ~~JKC for~~ our proportionate share of ~~the~~JKC's capital requirements to complete the ~~Power Plant~~power plant as these legal proceedings progress.

~~During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, we~~We made investment contributions to JKC of approximately ~~$141~~$484 million to fund our proportionate share of the project execution ~~activities. During 2018, we made investment contributions to JKC of approximately $344 million~~activities on an inception-to-date basis. We continue to fund our proportionate share of ~~the project execution activities. The project execution activities have now been completed~~ongoing legal and ~~were within our forecasted contributions $500 million.~~commercial costs. JKC's obligations to the client are guaranteed on a joint and several basis by the joint venture partners. ~~To the extent our joint venture partners are unable to complete their obligations, we could be exposed to additional funding requirements above our 30% ownership interest.~~ Negotiations and legal proceedings with the client and the subcontractors are ongoing, the goal of which is to minimize these expected outflows. If we experience unfavorable outcomes associated with the various legal and commercial disputes, our total investment contributions could increase which could have a material adverse effect on our financial position and cash flows.

As of September 30, ~~2019,~~2020, we had $164 million in letters of credit outstanding in support of performance and warranty guarantees provided to the client. The performance ~~and warranty letters~~letter of credit ~~have been extended to February 2021 to allow for~~expires upon provisional acceptance of the ~~various disputes to be resolved.~~facility by the client and the warranty letter of credit expires upon the end of the warranty obligation.

U.K. pension obligation. We have recognized on our condensed consolidated balance sheet a funding deficit of ~~$192~~$223 million (measured as the difference between the fair value of plan assets and the projected benefit ~~obligation)~~obligation as of September 30, 2020) for our frozen defined benefit pension plans. The total amount of employer pension contributions paid for the nine months ended September 30, ~~2019~~2020 was ~~$31~~$33 million and primarily related to our defined benefit plan in the U.K. The funding requirements for our U.K. pension plan are determined based on the U.K. Pensions Act of 1995. Annual minimum funding requirements are based on a binding agreement with the trustees of the U.K. pension plan that is negotiated on a triennial ~~basis.~~basis which is slated to commence in 2021 and is required to be completed by April 2022. The binding agreement also includes other assurances and commitments regarding the business and assets that support the U.K. pension plan. We agreed to a new triennial agreement with the trustees of the U.K. pension in June 2019. Thecurrent agreement calls for minimum annual contributions of ~~$44~~£33 million ~~from 2019 through~~($44 million at current exchange rates) until the next valuation. In the future, ~~such~~ pension funding may increase or decrease depending on changes in the levels of interest rates, pension plan asset return performance and other factors. A significant increase in our funding requirements for the U.K. pension plan could result in a material adverse impact on our financial position.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Letters of credit, surety bonds and guarantees.In the ordinary course of business, we ~~enter~~have entered into various ~~agreements~~arrangements providing financial or performance ~~guarantees~~assurance to customers on behalf of certain consolidated and unconsolidated subsidiaries, joint ventures and ~~consolidated joint ventures. These agreements are entered into primarily~~other jointly executed contracts. Such off-balance sheet arrangements include letters of credit, surety bonds and corporate guarantees to support the creditworthiness or project execution commitments of these ~~entities. Depending on the specific project joint venture, these performance guarantees~~entities and typically have various expiration dates ranging from mechanical completion of the project being constructed to a period ~~extending~~ beyond ~~contract~~ completion in certain ~~circumstances.~~circumstances such as for warranties. We have also guaranteed that certain projects, once completed, will achieve specified performance standards. If the project subsequently fails to meet guaranteed performance standards, we may incur additional costs, pay liquidated damages or be held responsible for the costs incurred by the client to achieve the required performance standards. The potential amount of future payments that we could be required to make under an outstanding performance arrangement is typically the remaining estimated cost of work to be performed by or on behalf of third parties. For cost reimbursable contracts, amounts that may become payable pursuant to guarantee provisions are normally recoverable from the client for work performed under the contract. For lump-sum or fixed-price contracts, the performance guarantee amount is the cost to complete the contracted work, less amounts remaining to be billed to the client under the contract. Remaining billable amounts could be greater or less than the cost to ~~complete.~~complete the project. If costs exceed the remaining amounts payable under the contract, ~~the company~~we may have recourse to third parties, such as owners, ~~joint venture partners,~~ subcontractors or vendors for claims.

In our joint venture arrangements, ~~typically~~the liability of each partner is usually joint and several. This means that each joint venture partner may become liable for the entire risk of performance guarantees provided by each partner to the customer. Typically each joint venture partner indemnifies the other ~~party~~partners for any liabilities incurred in excess of the liabilities the other party is obligated to bear under the respective joint venture agreement. We are 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. See “Item 1A. Risk Factors” contained in Part I of our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K ~~which is incorporated herein by reference, for the year ended December 31, 2018,~~ for information regarding our fixed-price contracts and operations through joint ventures and partnerships. ~~Other than discussed in this report,~~

In certain limited circumstances, we ~~have not engaged in any material off-balance sheet financing arrangements through special purpose entities, and we have no material~~enter into financial guarantees ~~of the work or obligations of third parties.~~

~~Financial guarantees, made~~ in the ordinary course of business, ~~in certain limited circumstances, are entered into~~ with financial institutions and other credit grantors, ~~and~~which generally obligate ~~the company~~us to make payment in the event of a default by the borrower. These arrangements generally require the borrower to pledge collateral to support the fulfillment of the borrower’s obligation. We account for both financial and performance guarantees at fair value at issuance in accordance with ASC 460-10 Guarantees and, as of September 30, 2020, we had no material guarantees of the work or obligations of third parties recorded.

~~Letters~~We have committed and uncommitted lines of credit ~~surety bonds~~available to be used for letters of credit. As of September 30, 2020, our total capacity under these committed and ~~guarantees.~~uncommitted lines of credit was approximately $1.4 billion, of which $323 million had been utilized. Information relating to our ~~nonrecourse project debt~~letters of credit is described in Note 1211 "Debt and Other Credit Facilities" to our condensed consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and the information discussed therein is incorporated by reference into this Part I, Item 2. Other than discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we have not engaged in any material off-balance sheet financing arrangements through special purpose entities.

On October 1, 2020, the Company borrowed $260 million on the Senior Credit Facility to fund the acquisition of Centauri. See Note 4 “Acquisitions.”

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

There have been no material changes to our discussion of critical accounting policies and estimates from those set forth in our ~~2018~~2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K, ~~which is incorporated herein by reference,~~ for the year ended December 31, ~~2018.~~2019, which discussion is incorporated herein by reference.

See Note 1 ~~Description~~"Description of Company and Significant Accounting ~~Policies,~~Policies" to our condensed consolidated financial statements for a discussion of the potential impact of new accounting standards on our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Cash and equivalents are deposited with major banks throughout the world. We invest excess cash and equivalents in short-term securities, primarily time deposits and money market funds, which carry a fixed rate of return. We have not incurred any credit risk losses related to deposits of our cash and equivalents.

Foreign Currency Risk. WeBecause of the global nature of our business, we are exposed to market risk associated with changes in foreign currency exchange ~~rates primarily related to engineering and construction contracts.~~rates. We ~~attempt~~have historically attempted to limit exposure to foreign currency fluctuations ~~in most of these contracts~~ through provisions requiring the client to pay us in currencies corresponding to the currency in which cost is incurred. In addition to this natural hedge, we may use foreign exchange forward contracts and options to hedge material exposures when forecasted foreign currency revenues and costs are not denominated in the same currency and when efficient markets exist. These

derivatives are generally designated as cash flow hedges and are carried at fair value. We do not enter into derivative financial instruments for trading purposes or make speculative investments in foreign currencies. We recorded a net loss of $4 million and a net gain of $3 ~~million and net loss of $2~~ million for the three months ended September 30, ~~2019~~2020 and ~~2018,~~2019, respectively, and a net gain of $8$2 million and ~~net loss of $7~~$8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, ~~and 2018,~~ respectively, ~~related to the impact of our hedging activities associated with our operating exposures~~ in "Other non-operating income (expense)" on our condensed consolidated statements of operations. The net gain of $2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 consisted primarily of favorable foreign currency movements on certain intercompany balance positions denominated in British Pounds and Norwegian Krone resulting in foreign currency gains of approximately $7 million, net of $5 million related to changes in the fair value of balance sheet hedges.

We use derivative instruments, such as foreign exchange forward contracts and options, to hedge foreign currency risk related to non-functional currency assets and liabilities on our balance sheet. Each period, these balance sheet hedges are marked to market through earnings and the change in their fair value is largely offset by remeasurement of the underlying assets and liabilities. The fair value of these derivatives was not material to our condensed consolidated balance sheet ~~for the three months ended~~as of September 30, ~~2019. See~~2020. Information relating to fair value measurements is described in Note 2019 "Financial Instruments and Risk Management" to our condensed consolidated financial statements, ~~and the information discussed therein~~which is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.

Interest Rate Risk. We are exposed to market risk for changes in interest rates for the Revolver and term loan borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility. We had no borrowings outstanding under the Revolver and ~~$939~~$795 million outstanding under the term loan portions of the Senior Credit Facility as of September 30, ~~2019.~~2020. On October 1, 2020, we borrowed $260 million on the Revolver to fund the acquisition of Centauri. Borrowings under the Senior Credit Facility bear interest at variable rates as described in Note 1211 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

We manage interest rate exposure by entering into interest rate swap agreements ~~where~~pursuant to which we agree to exchange, at specified intervals, the difference between fixed and variable interest amounts calculated on an agreed-upon notional principal amount. OnIn October ~~10,~~ 2018, we entered into interest rate swap agreements covering $500 million of notional value of our outstanding term loans. Under these swap agreements, we receive a one month LIBOR rate and pay an average monthly fixed rate of 3.055% for the term of the swaps ~~which~~that expire in September 2022. In March 2020, we entered into additional swap agreements covering notional value of $400 million of our outstanding loans which are effective beginning October 2022. Under these swap agreements, we will receive a one-month LIBOR rate and pay an average monthly fixed rate of 0.965% for the term of the swaps that expire in January 2027. The swap agreements were designated as cash flow hedges at inception in accordance with ASC Topic 815 Accounting for Derivative and Hedging Transactions. The total fair value of these derivative instruments was a liability of approximately ~~$25~~$39 million as of September 30, ~~2019.~~2020.

At September 30, ~~2019,~~2020, we had fixed rate debt aggregating ~~$850 million~~$1.1 billion and variable rate debt aggregating ~~$439~~$295 million, after taking into account the effects of the interest rate swaps. Our weighted average interest rate for the nine months ended September 30, ~~2019,~~2020 was ~~5.33%~~4.66%. If interest rates were to increase by 50 basis points, pre-tax interest expense would increase by

approximately $2$1 million in the next twelve months net of the impact from our swap agreements, based on outstanding borrowings as of September 30, ~~2019.~~2020.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

In accordance with Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, ~~2019,~~2020, to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms. Our disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

~~Except as discussed below,~~During the three months ended September 30, 2020, there have been no changes in our internal ~~control procedures~~controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial ~~reporting during the three months ended September 30, 2019.~~

~~Material Weakness in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting~~

During the three months ended September 30, 2019, management determined that it failed to sufficiently assess and implement controls to address risks affecting internal controls over financial reporting relating to the implementation of a new ERP system for a portion of our Government Solutions business segment during the quarter ended June 30, 2019. As part of the implementation, certain accounting activities previously performed in our overseas shared services function were transferred to our Government Solutions shared services function in the United States. Specifically, management failed to:

~~effectively communicate changes in job responsibilities, including the responsibility for certain accounting reconciliations; and~~

~~monitor whether account reconciliation controls operated effectively during the period.~~

As a result, account reconciliation controls were not operated consistently and effectively during the second quarter of 2019 for a portion of our Government Solutions business. While this deficiency in controls did not result in a material misstatement of our financial statements for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, we determined this deficiency represented a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2019.

~~Remediation of Reported Material Weakness~~

~~Management remediated the material weakness in internal control during the quarter ended September 30, 2019 by:~~

~~clarifying job responsibilities, including the responsibility for certain account reconciliations;~~

~~operating account reconciliation controls;~~

~~implementing improved monitoring controls to validate the account reconciliation controls were operating; and~~

~~testing the account reconciliation and monitoring controls to confirm they were operating effectively.~~

In our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2019, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2019. In light of the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting described above that existed as of June 30, 2019, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer re-evaluated the conclusions regarding our disclosure controls and procedures for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 and concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of such date solely because of the material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting described above that existed at that time.reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

Item 1A. Risk Factors

~~There are no material changes from the~~We have updated certain risk factors ~~previously disclosed~~affecting our business since those presented in ~~Part I, Item 1A in~~ our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K ~~which is incorporated herein by reference,~~ for the fiscal year ended December 31, ~~2018.~~2019 and those in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2020. Except for the risk factors set forth below, there have been no material changes in our assessment of our risk factors from those set forth in such reports.

The widespread outbreak of a pandemic or epidemic, or the outbreak of an infectious disease, such as COVID-19, may materially adversely affect our business, results of operations and/or cash flows, including as a result of widespread reduced demand for oil and reduced commodity prices resulting from oversupply of oil or storage constraints.

The spread of COVID-19 across the globe has negatively affected worldwide economic and commercial activity, disrupted global supply chains, and created significant volatility and disruption of financial and commodity markets. Further, while the supply of hydrocarbon commodities was reduced somewhat, demand fell even more sharply as a result of COVID-19 and prices saw a sharp drop in the first quarter 2020. This low commodity price environment has continued in the ensuing months. In addition, our business and operational plans may be adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic due to a number of factors outside of our control, including:

the health or availability of our workforce, including contractors and subcontractors, and restrictions that we and our customers, contractors and subcontractors impose, including limiting worksite access and facility shutdowns, to ensure the safety of employees and others;

the ability or willingness of our vendors and suppliers to provide the equipment, parts or raw materials for our operations or otherwise fulfill their contractual obligations, which in turn could impair our ability to perform under our contracts or to deliver products on a timely basis;

recommendations of, or restrictions imposed by, government and health authorities, including travel bans, quarantines, and shelter-in-place orders to address the COVID-19 outbreak;

potential contract delays, modifications or terminations;

increased potential for the occurrence of operational hazards, including terrorism, cyber-attacks or domestic vandalism, as well as information system failures or communication network disruptions;

reductions in the number and amounts of new government contract awards, delays in the timing of anticipated awards or potential cancellations of such prospects as a result of the fiscal, economic and budgetary challenges facing our customers, as well as material and equipment pricing;

increased cost and reduced availability of capital for growth or capital expenditures;

increased costs of operation in relation to the COVID-19 outbreak, which costs may not be fully recoverable or adequately covered by insurance; and

long-term disruption of the U.S. and global economy and financial and commodity markets.

The spread of COVID-19 has caused us to significantly modify our business practices (including limiting employee and contractor presence at our work locations), and we may take further actions as may be required by government authorities or that we determine are in the best interests of our employees, contractors, customers, suppliers and communities. There is no certainty that such measures will be sufficient to mitigate the risks posed by the virus, and our ability to perform critical functions could be adversely impacted.

As the potential effects of COVID-19 are difficult to predict, the duration of any potential business disruption or the extent to which COVID-19 may negatively affect our operating results is uncertain. Any potential impact will depend on future developments and new information that may emerge regarding the spread, severity and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and the actions taken by authorities to contain it or treat its impact, all of which are beyond our control. These potential effects, while uncertain, could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and/or cash flows, as well as our ability to pay dividends to our shareholders.

Demand for our services and technologies depends on demand and capital spending by customers in their target markets, many of which are cyclical in nature, have been reduced in light of declining commodity prices, and have been significantly impacted by COVID-19.

Demand for many of our services in our commodity-based markets depends on capital spending by oil and natural gas companies, including national and international oil companies, and by industrial companies, which is directly affected by trends in oil, natural gas and commodities prices. Market prices for oil, natural gas and commodities have been volatile in recent years reducing the revenues and earnings of our customers. Further, the hydrocarbon commodities supply and demand imbalances, combined with the continued outbreak of COVID-19, contributed to a sharp drop in prices for oil in the first quarter of 2020. Although the supply of hydrocarbon commodities was reduced somewhat, demand fell even more sharply as a result of COVID-19. The average spot price of West Texas Intermediate (Cushing) crude oil declined to below $0 during April 2020, and more recently closed at $40.05 on September 30, 2020.

These market conditions make it difficult for our customers to accurately forecast and plan future business trends and activities that in turn could have a significant impact on the activity levels of our businesses. As a result, several leading international and national oil companies reduced their capital expenditures in 2020. Demand for LNG and other facilities for which we provide services has decreased, and could continue to decrease, in light of the sustained reduction in the price and demand for crude oil or natural gas resulting from COVID-19. Perceptions of longer-term lower oil and natural gas prices by oil and gas companies or longer-term higher material and contractor prices impacting facility costs have caused and may continue to cause our customers to reduce or defer major expenditures given the long-term nature of many large-scale projects. Even relatively minor changes in supply and demand have the potential to cause large fluctuations in the prices of oil, natural gas and commodities, as well as lead to significant market uncertainty and a variety of other factors that are beyond our control. Factors affecting the prices of oil, natural gas and other commodities include, but are not limited to:

world health events, including the COVID-19 pandemic, which has reduced and may continue to reduce demand for oil and natural gas because of reduced economic activity;

changes in the level of global demand for oil, natural gas, and industrial services due in part to governmental regulations, including travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter in place orders, and shutdowns;

worldwide or regional political, social or civil unrest, military action and economic conditions;

governmental regulations or policies, including the policies of governments regarding the use of energy and the exploration for and production and development of their oil and natural gas reserves;

a reduction in energy demand as a result of energy taxation or a change in consumer spending patterns;

global economic growth or decline;

the global level of oil and natural gas production;

potential shut-ins of production by producers due to lack of downstream demand or storage capacity;

global weather conditions and natural disasters;

oil refining capacity;

shifts in end-customer preferences toward fuel efficiency and the use of natural gas;

potential acceleration of the development and expanded use of alternative fuels;

environmental regulation, including limitations on fossil fuel consumption based on concerns about its relationship to climate change; and

reduction in demand for the commodity-based markets in which we operate.
