From Kratos Defense & Security Solutions, Inc.'s Latest SEC 10-K Filing (filed 2026-02-23)
Key Strengths & Strategy (as disclosed to the SEC)
- This continuing resolution ("CRA") largely extended fiscal year 2024 spending levels, including certain limited flexibility to reallocate certain program funds, and, according to the Congressional Budget Office, would allow for $1.6 trillion in discretionary spending in the federal government's fiscal year 2025, with $893 billion for defense (an approximately $6 billion increase) and $708 billion for non-defense spending (an approximately $13 billion reduction).
- This $838.7 billion, plus the approximate $113 billion included in the OBBBA noted above, and including approximately $45 billion in Department of Energy National Security related funds, brings the total U.S.
- We intend to leverage our technology, intellectual property, proprietary products, capabilities, industry reputation, past performance qualifications, long-term customer relationships and diverse contract base to address these priorities.
- Marine Corps and other National Security-related customers and agencies, and commercial and other customers and entities, enable us to develop an in-depth understanding of their missions, problems and technical requirements.
Partnerships
- We also received a single award Phase 1 agreement with an initial total projected ceiling of $175 million across multiple phases to develop an organic sustainment capability for the U.S.
