This presentation contains forward-looking statements regarding our plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events, future financial performance and backlog information and other information that is not historical. When used in this presentation, the words “estimates,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “projects,” “plans,” “intends,” “believes,” “forecasts” or future or conditional verbs such as “will,” “should,” “could,” or “may,” and variations of such words or similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Suchstatements are based upon our current expectations and various assumptions, which are made in good faith, and we believe there is a reasonable basis for them. However, because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent risks,uncertainties and other factors that are difficult to predict and which could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements contained in this presentation.

These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to:

• the potentially global impact of uncertainties related to the 2020 Presidential and Congressional elections, including regulatory changes or changes to funding related to our lines of business that could be less favorable. 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 budgetary priorities, as well as by delays in the government budget process, program starts or the award of contracts or task orders under 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 thenumber and intensity of military conflicts and other 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 supplychain 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 clients' ability to meet their payment obligations to us in a timely manner; and

• the 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.

Additional information about potential risk factors that could affect our business and financial results is included in our Form 10-K filed on February 24, 2020 and any subsequent Forms 10-Q and 8-K. We caution you not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements included in this presentation, which speak only as of the date hereof.

We disclaim any intent or obligation, except as required by law, to revise or update this information to reflect new information or future events or circumstances. This presentation contains the financial measures “EBITDA,” “Adjusted EBITDA,” “Adjusted EPS” and “Adjusted Operating Cash Flow,” which are not calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EPS and Adjusted Operating Cash Flow to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure has been provided in the Appendix to this presentation.
