Every record that names this company by ticker, newest first: awards, bills, executive actions, SEC filings, news and private raises. Patents are listed below.
USAspending (prime contracts only; no subcontracts or classified work; defense contracts can arrive up to 90 days after signing), SEC EDGAR, Senate LDA, FEC, House and Senate disclosures, the Federal Register and the White House. Companies are tied to records by exact name, a verified alias or a subsidiary in the company's own Exhibit 21; a miss is better than a wrong link. A shared date is not proof of cause, and nothing here is investment advice.
Obligated means an agency committed the money to this company in that period (a signed contract action), as reported to USAspending. It is not a payment and not revenue: a contract can be funded for several years at once, and revenue is booked as the work is done. Some years can exceed revenue for that reason.
Prime contracts only, and only what is published. Work the company does as a subcontractor is not in these figures, and classified contracts are not published on USAspending at all. A low share can mean either. Contract values, ceilings and options are never added in.
Which units count: the USAspending recipient that is the company's SEC registrant; units of the company that USAspending's own records place under it (as parent, or in its family tree); and subsidiaries from the company's SEC Exhibit 21 that carry its name. Joint ventures, units now owned by someone else, and records that only share a name are held back. Both lists are below.
Earlier years count the units the company owns today. A unit we checked by hand (its USAspending parent is out of date) counts from the date the company bought it, or, where no filing gives that date, from the first date a filing shows the company owning it. Other units count for every year shown until their purchase dates are loaded.
Revenue bars are the company's own fiscal year from its 10-K, placed in the federal year it ends in; its fiscal year can end in a different month than the government's.
Fiscal year 2022 onward. Federal fiscal years run October to September; the company's own fiscal year may differ.

Open-market buys and sells from SEC Form 4 filings; grants and option exercises left out, and trades whose filed price failed our market check. A 10b5-1 plan is a trading schedule set in advance, so those sells say little about the insider's view. The plan box is on filings from April 2023 on.
