Performance Obligations
As we progress on our contracts and the underlying performance obligations for which we recognize revenue over time, we refine our estimates of variable consideration and total estimated costs at completion, which impact the overall profitability on our contracts and performance obligations. Changes in these estimates result in the recognition of cumulative catch-up adjustments that impact our revenues and/or costs of contracts. The aggregate impact of changes in estimates increased our revenues and operating income as follows:

(1)During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, no adjustments to any one contract had a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. During the three months ended September 30, 2025, no adjustments to any one contract had a material impact on our consolidated financial results. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, our Government Operations segment results were favorably impacted by material contract adjustments related to a nuclear operations contract resulting in an increase in revenue and operating income of $29.4 million.
Contract Assets and Liabilities
We include revenues and related costs incurred, plus accumulated contract costs that exceed amounts invoiced to customers under the terms of the contracts, in Contracts in progress. Costs specific to certain contracts for which we recognize revenue at a point in time are also included in Contracts in progress. We include in Advance billings on contract billings that exceed accumulated contract costs and revenues recognized over time. Amounts that are withheld on our fixed-price incentive fee contracts are classified within Retainages. Certain of these amounts require conditions other than the passage of time to be achieved, with the remaining amounts only requiring the passage of time. Most long-term contracts contain provisions for progress payments. Our unbilled receivables do not contain an allowance for credit losses as we expect to invoice customers and collect all amounts for unbilled receivables. Changes in Contracts in progress and Advance billings on contracts are primarily driven by differences in the timing of revenue recognition and billings to our customers. Our fixed-price incentive fee contracts for our Government Operations segment include provisions that result in an increase in retainages on contracts during the first and third quarters of the year, with larger payments received during the second and fourth quarters. Retainages also vary as a result of timing differences between incurring costs and achieving milestones that allow us to recover these amounts.

During the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, we recognized $3.0 million and $14.7 million, respectively, of revenues that were in Advance billings on contracts at the beginning of each year. During the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, we recognized $149.6 million and $138.3 million, respectively, of revenues that were in Advance billings on contracts at the beginning of each year.
Remaining Performance Obligations
Remaining performance obligations represent the dollar amount of revenue we expect to recognize in the future from performance obligations on contracts previously awarded and in progress. At September 30, 2026, our remaining performance obligations were $8,556.2 million. We expect to recognize approximately 46% of the revenue associated with our remaining performance obligations by the end of 2027, with the remainder to be recognized thereafter.
