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, government programs and joint ventures represent a substantial part of our operations. To streamline and optimize our processes, we realigned our segments effective as of fiscal 2025. As part of this realignment, our Government Solutions reportable segment has been renamed Mission Technology Solutions while Sustainable Technology Solutions has retained its name. The international business contained within Government Solutions has been integrated into both Mission Technology Solutions and Sustainable Technology Solutions. All information in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 2, 2026 is presented in accordance with the realigned reportable segments and all prior period information was recast to reflect the realigned reportable segments. Effective for fiscal 2026, a portion of a business unit within our Mission Technology Solutions segment will become part of our Sustainable Technology Solutions segment. We will begin reporting new segment information due to this change beginning the first fiscal quarter of 2026.
We are organized into two core business segments, Mission Technology Solutions and Sustainable Technology Solutions and one non-core business segment as described below:
Mission Technology Solutions. Our Mission Technology Solutions business segment provides full life-cycle support solutions to defense, intelligence, space, aviation and other programs and missions for military and other government agencies primarily in the U.S., U.K. and Australia. KBR's full-spectrum solutions span research and development, advanced prototyping, acquisition support, systems engineering, C5ISR, cyber analytics, space domain awareness, test and evaluation, data analytics and integration, systems integration and program management, global supply chain management, operations readiness and support and professional advisory services across the defense, energy security and transition and critical infrastructure sectors. Included in Mission Technology Solutions is the business of LinQuest Corporation ("LinQuest"), an engineering, data analytics and digital integration company acquired on August 30, 2024 and Infrastar Limited acquired on May 17, 2025. See Note 4. "Acquisitions" to our consolidated financial statements for additional information on these acquisitions. Additionally, the disposal of HomeSafe is reported as discontinued operations and HomeSafe's operations are excluded from Mission Technology Solutions results reflected within our tables below. See Note 21. “Discontinued Operations” for additional information regarding the HomeSafe disposal.
Sustainable Technology Solutions. Our Sustainable Technology Solutions business segment is anchored by our portfolio of over 85 innovative, proprietary, sustainability-focused process technologies that reduce emissions, increase efficiency and/or accelerate and enable energy transition across the industrial base in four primary verticals: ammonia/syngas, chemical/petrochemicals, clean refining and circular process/circular economy solutions. STS also provides highly synergistic services including advisory and consulting focused on energy security, broad-based emission solutions, high-end engineering,
infrastructure, design and program management centered around decarbonization, energy efficiency, environmental impact and asset optimization, as well as our digitally-enabled operating and monitoring solutions. Through early planning and scope definition, advanced technologies and facility life-cycle optimization, our STS business segment works closely with customers to provide what we believe is the optimal approach to maximize their return on investment.
Corporate. Our non-core segment includes corporate expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses not allocated to the business segments above.
In its operation of our business, our management, including our chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), evaluates the performance of our business segments based on operating income. Our CODM, who is our chief executive officer, utilizes operating income to evaluate segment results and is a factor considered in determining capital allocation among the segments. Our CODM analyzes selected segment balance sheet information for our business segments and for the Company as a whole. Information on each of our business segments and reconciliation to net income (loss) attributable to KBR from continuing operations within our consolidated statements of operations is presented in the tables below.
