Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management carried out, as of December 31, 2025, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2025, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in reports we
82
file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms and that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining for the Company adequate internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Management, with the participation of its Chair and Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer), has assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025 based on the framework established in “Internal Control—Integrated Framework,” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework). Based on this assessment, management has concluded that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2025.
The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, which audited the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K, also audited the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, as stated in their audit report included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Consistent with the guidance issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission Staff, management has excluded TRS Group, Inc. ("TRS"), Chesapeake Technology International, Corp ("CTI"), and Applied Sciences Consulting, Inc. ("ASC") from its assessment of internal controls over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025. TRS Group is a wholly owned subsidiary, which we acquired on January 31, 2025, Chesapeake Technology International is a wholly owned subsidiary, which we acquired on June 30, 2025, and Applied Science Consulting is a wholly owned subsidiary, which we acquired on October 1, 2025, all combined, have total assets and revenue of 0.8% and 1.1%, respectively of the related consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, that occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2025 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Parsons Corporation and its subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of income, of comprehensive income, of changes in shareholders' equity and of cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, including the related notes and schedule of valuation and qualifying accounts for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025 appearing under Item 15(a)(2) (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements"). We also have audited the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in I nternal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the COSO.
Basis for Opinions
The Company's management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 9A. Our responsibility is to express opinions on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.
Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
As described in Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting, management has excluded TRS Group, Inc. ("TRS"), Chesapeake Technology International, Corp ("CTI"), and Applied Sciences Consulting, Inc. ("ASC") from its assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025 because they were acquired by the Company in purchase business combinations
F- 2
during 2025. We have also excluded TRS, CTI and ASC from our audit of internal control over financial reporting. TRS, CTI and ASC are wholly-owned subsidiaries whose total assets and total revenues excluded from management’s assessment and our audit of internal control over financial reporting collectively represent approximately 0.8% and 1.1%, respectively, of the related consolidated financial statement amounts as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
Revenue Recognition – Determination of Estimated Contract Cost and Variable Consideration Related to Estimated Claims Revenue for Fixed-Price Contracts Recognized Over Time
As described in Notes 2 and 4 to the consolidated financial statements, revenue is derived from long-term contracts with customers whereby the Company provides planning, design, engineering, technical, and construction and program management services. The Company enters into cost-plus, time-and-materials, and fixed-price contracts with its customers. Fixed-price contract revenue recognized was $2.1 billion for the year ended December 31, 2025, which accounts for approximately 34% of the Company’s consolidated revenue. Fixed-price contract revenue is recognized over time using an input measure (i.e., costs incurred to date relative to total estimated costs at completion) to measure progress. Under the cost-to-cost measure of progress method, the extent of progress towards completion is measured based on the ratio of total costs incurred-to-date to the total estimated costs at completion of the performance obligation. Revenues, including estimated fees or profits, are recorded proportionally as costs are incurred. Management includes variable consideration, such as claims revenue, in the estimated transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur or when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. Contract costs consist of direct costs on contracts, including labor and materials, amounts payable to subcontractors, direct overhead costs and equipment expense (primarily depreciation, fuel, maintenance and repairs). Changes to estimated contract costs, either due to unexpected events or revisions to management’s initial estimates, for a given project are recognized in the period in which they are determined. Recognition of profit on long-term contracts requires the use of assumptions and estimates related to total contract revenue and in particular estimated claims revenue, total estimated cost at
F- 3
completion, and the measurement of progress towards completion. Management’s estimates are continually evaluated as work progresses and are revised when necessary.
The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to revenue recognition, specifically the determination of estimated contract cost and variable consideration related to estimated claims revenue for fixed-price contracts recognized over time is a critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgment by management in determining the estimated contract cost and variable consideration related to estimated claims revenue for fixed-price contracts recognized over time; (ii) a high degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity, and effort in performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence for the estimated contract cost and variable consideration related to estimated claims revenue for fixed-price contracts recognized over time.
Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating to the revenue recognition process, including controls over the determination of estimated contract cost and variable consideration related to estimated claims revenue for fixed-price contracts recognized over time. These procedures also included, among others, for a selection of fixed-price contracts (i) evaluating and testing management’s process for determining the estimated contract cost and variable consideration related to estimated claims revenue, which included reading contracts and other documents related to the estimates, and testing of underlying incurred and estimated contract costs; (ii) assessing management’s ability to reasonably estimate total contract costs by performing a comparison of the actual estimated contract cost as compared with prior period estimates, including evaluating the timely identification of circumstances that may warrant a modification to the estimated contract cost; and (iii) evaluating estimated claims revenue by inquiry with external legal counsel regarding the underlying claim and agreeing estimated claims revenue to documents related to those estimates.

PARSONS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023
1. Description of Operations
Organization
Parsons Corporation, a Delaware corporation, and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) provide sophisticated design, engineering and technical services, and smart and agile software to the United States federal government and Critical Infrastructure customers worldwide. The Company performs work in various foreign countries through local subsidiaries, joint ventures and foreign offices maintained to carry out specific projects.
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and include the accounts of Parsons Corporation and its subsidiaries and affiliates which it controls. Interests in joint ventures that are controlled by the Company, or for which the Company is otherwise deemed to be the primary beneficiary, are consolidated. For joint ventures in which the Company does not have a controlling interest, but exerts significant influence, the Company applies the equity method of accounting. Intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. Certain amounts may not foot due to rounding.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual amounts could differ from those estimates. The Company’s most significant estimates and judgments involve revenue recognition with respect to the determination of the costs to complete contracts and transaction price; determination of self-insurance reserves; useful lives of property and equipment and intangible assets; valuation of deferred income tax assets and uncertain tax positions, among others.
ESOP
The Company maintains a non-leveraged ESOP for eligible employees, for which the Company contributes shares of its own stock to the ESOP trust each year. Throughout the year, as employee services are rendered, the Company records compensation expense based on salaries of eligible employees. At each reporting period, the shares held within the ESOP or committed to be contributed to the ESOP are adjusted to their redemption value through an offsetting charge or credit to retained earnings.
Treasury Stock
The Company records treasury stock purchases under the cost method whereby the entire cost of the acquired stock is recorded as treasury stock. The Company records the reissuance of treasury stock using the first-in, first-out method of accounting. Contributions of 1,172,622 shares, 633,033 shares, and 915,113 shares of common stock were made to the ESOP in 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Share Repurchases
On August 9, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the Company to acquire a number of shares of Common Stock having an aggregate market value of not greater than $ 100 million from time to time, commencing on August 12, 2021. The Board further amended this authorization in August 2022 to remove the prior expiration date and grant executive leadership the discretion to determine the price for such share repurchases. The Board further amended this authorization in March 2025 to increase and reset the repurchase capacity to $ 250 million. Any purchases made by the Company during Q1 of 2025 were deducted from the reset capacity.
Under prior authorizations, the Company had repurchased shares with an aggregate market value of $ 79.7 million. The aggregate market value of shares of Common Stock the Company is authorized to acquire from prior authorizations and the March 2025 authorization is not greater than $ 329.7 million.
Repurchased shares of common stock are retired and included in “Repurchases of common stock” in cash flows from financing activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
Earnings per Share
Basic earnings per common share (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing Net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per common share is calculated using the if-converted method by dividing adjusted net income by adjusted weighted average outstanding shares, assuming conversion of all potentially dilutive securities. Upon contribution to the ESOP, the shares become outstanding and are included within the earnings per share computations.
Revenue Recognition
In accordance with Account Standard Update ("ASC") 606 - Revenue From Contracts With Customers , the Company follows the five-step process in ASC 606 to recognize revenue:
1. Identify the contract
2. Identify performance obligations
3. Determine the transaction price
4. Allocate the transaction price
5. Recognize revenue
Contracts —Revenue is derived from long-term contracts with customers whereby the Company provides planning, design, engineering, technical, and construction and program management services. The Company has contracts with the United States federal government that contain provisions requiring compliance with the United States Federal Acquisition Regulation (“FAR”) and the United States Cost Accounting Standards (“CAS”). These regulations are generally applicable to all of the Company’s federal government contracts and are partially or fully incorporated in some local and state agency contracts. Most of the Company’s federal government contracts are subject to termination at the convenience of the client. These contracts typically provide for reimbursement of costs incurred and payment of fees earned through the date of such termination.
The Company enters into the following types of contracts with its customers:
Cost-Plus—Under cost-plus contracts, the Company is reimbursed for allowable or otherwise defined costs incurred, plus a fee. The contracts may also include incentives for various performance criteria, including quality, timeliness, safety and cost-effectiveness. In addition, costs are generally subject to review by clients and regulatory audit agencies, and such reviews could result in costs being disputed as non-reimbursable under the terms of the contract.

December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023
Time-and-Materials—Under time-and-materials contracts, hourly billing rates are negotiated and charged to clients based on the actual time spent on a project. In certain cases, these contracts may be subject to maximum contract values. In addition, clients reimburse actual out-of-pocket costs for materials and other direct incidental expenditures that are incurred in connection with the performance under the contract.
Fixed-Price—The Company enters into two types of fixed-price contracts: firm fixed-price (“FFP”) and fixed-price per unit (“FPPU”). Under FFP contracts, clients pay an agreed fixed-amount negotiated in advance for a specified scope of work.
Contract Costs —Contract costs consist of direct costs on contracts, including labor and materials, amounts payable to subcontractors, direct overhead costs and equipment expense (primarily depreciation, fuel, maintenance and repairs). All contract costs are recorded as incurred. Changes to estimated contract costs, either due to unexpected events or revisions to management’s initial estimates, for a given project are recognized in the period in which they are determined. Pre-contract costs are expensed as incurred unless they are expected to be recovered from the client, generate or enhance resources that will be used in satisfying performance obligations in the future and directly relate to an existing or anticipated contract. Costs to mobilize equipment and labor to a job site, prior to substantive work beginning (“mobilization costs”) are capitalized as incurred and amortized over the expected duration of the contract. Additionally, the Company may incur incremental costs to obtain certain contracts, such as selling and market costs, bid and proposal costs, sales commissions, and legal fees, certain of which can be capitalized if they are recoverable under the contract. Capitalized contract costs are included in other current assets on the consolidated balance sheets and were not material as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
Performance Obligations —A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer and is the unit of account in ASC 606. The transaction price of a contract is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and recognized as revenue when, or as, the performance obligation is satisfied. To the extent a contract is deemed to have multiple performance obligations, the Company allocates the transaction price of the contract to each performance obligation using our best estimate of the standalone selling price of each distinct good or service in the contract. The Company determines the relative standalone selling price utilizing observable prices for the sale of the underlying goods or services. Contracts are considered to have a single performance obligation if the promise to transfer the individual goods or services is not separately identifiable from other promises in the contracts or is not distinct in the context of the contract, which is mainly because the Company provides a significant service of integrating a complex set of tasks and components into a single project or capability. Engineering and construction contracts are generally accounted for as a single performance obligation while our engineering and construction supervision contracts are accounted for as two separate performance obligations. When providing construction supervision services, the Company is not liable for the construction of the asset, but has an overall responsibility to oversee, coordinate, measure, and evaluate the quality of construction work and the performance of the construction contractor on behalf of the customer. Customers are generally billed as the Company satisfies its performance obligations and payment terms typically range from 30 to 120 days from the invoice date. Billings under certain fixed-price contracts may be based upon the achievement of specified milestones, while some arrangements may require advance customer payment. The Company’s contracts generally do not include a significant financing component.
Variable Consideration —The transaction price for the Company’s contracts may include variable consideration, which includes increases to transaction price for approved and unpriced change orders, claims and incentives, and reductions to transaction price for liquidated damages. Change orders, claims and incentives are generally not distinct from the existing contract due to the significant integration service provided in the context of the contract and are accounted for as a modification of the existing contract and performance obligation. The Company estimates variable consideration for a performance obligation utilizing one of the two prescribed methods, depending on which method better predicts the amount of consideration to which the Company will be entitled (or the amount the Company expects to
F- 13
PARSONS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023
incur in the case of liquidated damages). Such methods are: (a) the expected value method, whereby the amount of variable consideration to be recognized represents the sum of probability weighted amounts in a range of possible consideration amounts, and (b) the most likely amount method, whereby the amount of variable consideration to be recognized represents the single most likely amount in a range of possible consideration amounts. When applying these methods, the Company considers all information that is reasonably available, including historical, current and estimates of future performance. The expected value method is utilized in situations where a contract contains a large number of possible outcomes, while the most likely amount method is utilized in situations where a contract has only two possible outcomes.
The Company includes variable consideration in the estimated transaction price to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur or when the uncertainty associated with the variable consideration is resolved. The Company’s estimates of variable consideration and determination of whether to include estimated amounts in transaction price are based largely on an assessment of anticipated performance and all information (historical, current and forecasted) that is reasonably available. The effect of variable consideration on the transaction price of a performance obligation is recognized as an adjustment to revenue on a cumulative catch-up basis.
Change Orders —Change orders, which are a normal and recurring part of business, may include changes in specifications or design, manner of performance, facilities, equipment, materials, sites and period of completion of the work. The Company or customer may initiate change orders. Most change orders are not distinct from the existing contract and are accounted for as part of that existing contract. The effect of a change order on the transaction price and measure of progress for the performance obligation to which it relates is recognized as an adjustment to revenues (either as an increase in or a reduction of revenues) on a cumulative catch-up basis. Revenues from unpriced change orders are recognized to the extent of the amounts the Company expects to recover, consistent with the variable consideration policy discussed above. If it is probable that a reversal of revenues will occur, the costs attributable to change orders are treated as contract costs without incremental revenues. To the extent change orders included in the price are not resolved in the Company’s favor, there could be reductions in, or reversals of previously reported amounts of, revenues and profits, and charges against current earnings, which could be material.
Claims Revenue —Claims revenue are amounts in excess of agreed contract prices that the Company seeks to collect from clients or others for customer-caused delays, errors in specifications and designs, contract terminations, change orders that are in dispute, or other causes of unanticipated additional contract costs, including factors outside of our control, and therefore the Company believes it is entitled to additional compensation. Claims revenue, when recorded, is only recorded to the extent it is probable that a significant reversal of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur. The Company includes certain claims in the transaction price when the claims are legally enforceable, the Company considers collection to be probable and believes it can reliably estimate the ultimate value. The Company continues to engage in negotiations with its customers on outstanding claims. However, these claims may be resolved at amounts that differ from current estimates, which could result in increases or decreases in future estimated contract profits or losses.
Warranties —In most cases, contracts include assurance-type warranties that the Company’s performance is free from material defect and consistent with the specifications of the Company’s contracts, which do not give rise to a separate performance obligation. To the extent the warranty terms provide the customer with an additional service, such as extended maintenance services, such warranty is accounted for as a separate performance obligation.
Revenue recognized over time —The Company’s performance obligations are generally satisfied over time as work progresses because of continuous transfer of control to the customer and the Company has the right to bill the customer as costs are incurred. Typically, revenue is recognized over time using an input measure (i.e. costs incurred to date relative to total estimated costs at completion) to measure progress. The Company generally uses the cost-to-cost measure of progress method because it best
F- 14
PARSONS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023
depicts the transfer of control to the customer which occurs as the Company incurs costs on its contracts. Under the cost-to-cost measure of progress method, the extent of progress towards completion is measured based on the ratio of total costs incurred to-date to the total estimated costs at completion of the performance obligation. Revenues, including estimated fees or profits, are recorded proportionally as costs are incurred. Any expected losses on construction-type contracts in progress are charged to earnings, in total, in the period the losses are identified. The Company recognizes adjustments in estimated profit on contracts under the cumulative catch-up method. Under this method, the impact of the adjustment on profit recorded to date is recognized in the period the adjustment is identified. Revenue and profit in future periods of contract performance is recognized using the adjusted estimate. If at any time the estimate of contract profitability indicates an anticipated loss on the contract, the Company recognizes the total loss in the period it is identified.
Right to invoice practical expedient —For performance obligations satisfied over time where the Company has a right to consideration from a customer in an amount that corresponds directly with the value of the Company’s performance to-date, the Company recognizes revenue in the amount to which it has a right to invoice. For the Company’s reimbursable services contracts, revenue is recognized using the right to invoice practical expedient, or on a cost-to-cost measure of progress method. The Company will select the method that best represents progress on a project.
Revenue recognized at a point in time —For performance obligations satisfied at a point in time, revenue is recognized when the services are performed, control is transferred, and the performance obligation is complete. The Company recognizes revenue at a point in time for vehicle inspection services. Revenue related to the inspection service is recognized for each vehicle inspection at the point the Company has completed the inspection.
In the Company’s industry, recognition of profit on long-term contracts requires the use of assumptions and estimates related to total contract revenue and in particular estimated claims revenue, total estimated cost at completion, and the measurement of progress towards completion. Estimates are continually evaluated as work progresses and are revised when necessary. When a change in estimate is determined to have an impact on contract profit, the Company records a positive or negative adjustment to the consolidated statements of income.
Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of less than three months to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalent investments are carried at cost, which approximates fair value, and consist primarily of United States Treasuries, time deposits, and other forms of short-term fixed income investments.
Restricted Cash and Investments
Restricted cash and investments held in trust accounts represent collateral for certain incentive programs.
Accounts Receivable, Net
Accounts receivable includes billed and unbilled amounts and are recognized in the period when the Company’s rights to receive consideration are unconditional.
The Company establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based on consideration of trends in actual and forecasted credit quality of clients, including delinquency and payment history, type of client, such as a government agency or commercial sector client, and general economic conditions and particular industry conditions that may affect a client’s ability to pay. Past due receivable balances are written off when internal collection efforts have been unsuccessful in collecting the amounts due.

Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities
Projects with performance obligations recognized over time that have revenue recognized to-date in excess of cumulative billings and unbilled accounts receivable are reported on our consolidated balance sheets as “Contract assets”. Contract retentions, included in contract assets, represent amounts withheld by clients, in accordance with underlying contract terms, until certain conditions are met or the project is completed. The operating cycle for certain long-term contracts may extend beyond one year, and, accordingly, collection of retainage on those contracts may extend beyond one year. Contract assets are reclassified to accounts receivable when the right to consideration becomes unconditional.
Contract liabilities on uncompleted contracts represent the excess of cash collected from clients and billings to clients on contracts in advance of work performed over the amount of revenue recognized and provisions for losses. The majority of these amounts are expected to be earned within 12 months and are classified as current liabilities.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivables. The Company’s cash is primarily held with major banks and financial institutions throughout the world. At times, cash balances may be in excess of the amount insured.
The Company is involved in a significant volume of contracts with the United States federal government and state and local governments. Approximately 51 % , 59 % , and 55 % of consolidated revenues for the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, and approximately 19 % and 23 % of accounts receivable as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively were derived from contracts with the United States federal government. No other customers represented 10% or more of consolidated revenues or accounts receivable in any of the periods presented. One customer set within the United States federal government represents over 20% of total Company revenue for the year ended December 31, 2025.
In order to mitigate the credit risk associated with customers, the Company performs periodic credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost and are shown net of accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Depreciation of leasehold improvements is computed using the straight-line method over the shorter of their estimated useful lives or the remaining term of the lease.
The cost of assets retired or otherwise disposed of and the related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts, and any gain or loss thereon is included in net income. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Property and equipment are reviewed for impairment when events or circumstances change that indicate they may not be recoverable. Impairment losses are recognized when estimated future cash flows expected to result from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition are less than their carrying amount, in which case the asset is written down to its fair value.
Leases
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception. Operating leases are included in operating lease ROU assets and current and long-term operating lease liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. Finance leases are included in other noncurrent assets, accrued expenses and other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.
F- 16
PARSONS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023
ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. As most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, incremental borrowing rates are used based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The operating lease ROU asset also includes any lease payments made and excludes lease incentives. Lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Lease expense for operating lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
We have lease agreements with lease and non-lease components where the lease consideration is allocated between the components based on relative standalone prices. For real property leases, allocations of lease consideration between lease and non-lease components are immaterial. For certain equipment leases, such as vehicles, we account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component. Additionally, for certain equipment leases, we apply a portfolio approach to effectively account for the operating lease ROU assets and liabilities.
Equity-Based Compensation
The Company measures the value of services received from employees and directors in exchange for an equity-based award based on the grant date fair value. The Company issues equity-based awards that settle in shares of the Company’s common stock. Awards containing performance measures are adjusted at each reporting period for the number of shares expected to be earned. Compensation cost for performance awards are trued-up at each reporting period for the number of shares expected to be earned pro-rated for the portion of the requisite service period rendered. The Company recognizes compensation costs for these awards on either a straight-line or accelerated basis over the vesting period of the award in selling, general and administrative expense in the consolidated statements of income. For awards that include market conditions, the grant date fair value is determined using a Monte Carlo simulation.
Business Combinations
The Company accounts for business combinations using the acquisition method, under which the purchase price of an acquired company is allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and the liabilities assumed on the basis of their fair values at the date of acquisition. Any excess of purchase price over the fair value of tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed is allocated to goodwill. The determination of fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed requires the Company to make estimates and use valuation techniques when a market value is not readily available.
In determining the fair value of acquired intangible assets from our business acquisitions, the Company uses the multi-period excess earnings method to value customer relationships and backlog and values developed technologies using the relief-from royalty method. The Company’s determination of the fair value of the intangible assets acquired involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions related to discount rates, revenue growth rates, projected margins, and customer revenue attrition rates.
Certain business acquisitions include contingent consideration. Contingent consideration is recorded at its fair value, using a Black-Scholes model, within other liabilities or other long-term liabilities, as appropriate. The fair value of contingent consideration involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions related to risks associated with earnout, i.e. risk in the underlying metric, risk in the earnout structure, counterparty credit risk, projected revenue, the revenue discount rate, the revenue volatility, and the Company's credit adjusted discount rate. Subsequent adjustments to these assumptions can cause changes to the measure of contingent consideration.
The Company adjusts the preliminary purchase price allocation, as necessary, during the measurement period of up to one year after the acquisition closing date as the Company obtains more

information as to facts and circumstances existing at the acquisition date. Acquisition-related costs are recognized separate from the acquisition and are expensed as incurred.
Consolidation of Joint Ventures and Variable Interest Entities
The Company participates in joint ventures, which include partnerships and partially owned limited liability corporations, to bid, negotiate and complete specific projects. The Company is required to consolidate these joint ventures if it holds the majority voting interest or if the joint venture is determined to be a variable interest entity (“VIE”) for which the Company is the primary beneficiary, as described below.
A VIE is an entity with one or more of the following characteristics: (a) the total equity investment at risk is not sufficient to permit the entity to finance its activities without additional financial support; (b) as a group, the holders of the equity investment at risk lack the ability to make certain decisions, the obligation to absorb expected losses or the right to receive expected residual returns; or (c) an equity investor has voting rights that are disproportionate to its economic interest and substantially all of the entity’s activities are on behalf of the investor with disproportionately low voting rights. The Company’s VIEs may be funded through contributions, loans and/or advances from the joint venture partners or by advances and/or letters of credit provided by clients. Certain VIEs are directly governed, managed, operated and administered by the joint venture partners. Others have no employees and, although these entities own and hold the contracts with the clients, the services required by the contracts are typically performed by the joint venture partners or by other subcontractors.
The Company is considered the primary beneficiary and required to consolidate a VIE if it has the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact that VIE’s economic performance, and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of that VIE that could potentially be significant to the VIE. In determining whether the Company is the primary beneficiary, significant assumptions and judgments include the following: (1) identifying the significant activities and the parties that have the power to direct them; (2) reviewing the governing board composition and participation ratio; (3) determining the equity, profit and loss ratio; (4) determining the management-sharing ratio; (5) reviewing employment terms; and (6) reviewing the funding and operating agreements. Examples of significant activities currently being performed by the Company’s significant consolidated and unconsolidated joint ventures include engineering and design services; management consulting services; procurement and construction services; program management; construction management; and operations and maintenance services. If the Company determines that the power to direct the significant activities is shared by two or more joint venture parties, then there is no primary beneficiary and no party consolidates the VIE. In making the shared-power determination, the Company analyzes the key contractual terms, governance, related party and de facto agency as they are defined in the accounting standard, and other arrangements.
Goodwill
The Company performs a goodwill impairment test annually, on October 1 st of each year and additionally, performs a quarterly qualitative assessment to address whether a triggering event has occurred that would require an impairment test in the interim period.
For purposes of impairment testing, goodwill is allocated to the applicable reporting units based on the current reporting structure. Reporting units are operating segments or components of operating segments where discrete financial information is available and segment management regularly reviews the operating results. When evaluating goodwill for impairment, the Company may decide to first perform a qualitative assessment, or “step zero” impairment test, to determine whether it is more likely than not that impairment has occurred. If the Company does not perform a qualitative assessment, or if the Company determines that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of its reporting units exceeds their carrying amounts, the Company performs a quantitative assessment and calculates the estimated
F- 18
PARSONS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023
fair value of the respective reporting unit. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in the amount the carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill.
The Company’s decision to perform a qualitative impairment assessment in a given year is influenced by a number of factors, including the significance of the excess of the Company’s estimated fair value over carrying value at the last quantitative assessment date, the amount of time in between quantitative fair value assessments, and the date of its acquisitions, if any.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets with finite lives arise from business acquisitions and are amortized based on the period over which the contractual or economic benefit of the intangible assets are expected to be realized or on a straight-line basis over the useful lives of the underlying assets, ranging from one to sixteen years . These primarily consist of customer relationships, developed technology, backlog, and covenants not to compete. When indicators of a potential impairment exist, the Company assesses the recoverability of the unamortized balance of its intangible assets by first comparing undiscounted expected cash flows associated with the asset, or the asset group they are part of, to its carrying value. Should the review indicate that the carrying value is not fully recoverable, the excess of the carrying value over the fair value of the intangible assets would be recognized as an impairment loss.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are accounted for under the asset and liability method. This approach requires the recognition of deferred tax liabilities and assets to reflect the tax effects of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and tax basis of the Company’s assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to be in effect when the asset or liability is recovered or settled. The effect of a change in tax rates on deferred tax assets and liabilities is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Deferred tax assets are evaluated for future realization and valuation allowances are established when, in our opinion, it is more likely than not that all or some portion of the asset will not be realized.
The Company recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions are more likely than not of being sustained on examination by the taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements on a particular tax position are measured based on the largest benefit that is greater than 50 percent likely of being realized. The amount of unrecognized tax benefits (“UTB”) is adjusted as appropriate for changes in facts and circumstances, such as significant amendments to existing tax law, new regulations or interpretations by the taxing authorities, new information obtained during a tax examination, or resolution of an examination. The Company recognizes both accrued interest and penalties, where appropriate, related to UTBs in income tax expense.
Foreign Currency Translation
The Company’s reporting currency is the U.S. Dollar. The functional currency of the Company’s foreign entities is typically the currency of the primary environment in which they operate. For foreign entities whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar, the assets and liabilities are translated based on exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date, while the income and expense accounts are translated using the average exchange rates during the period. Translation gains or losses, net of income tax effects, are reflected in accumulated other comprehensive income on the consolidated balance sheets. Transaction gains and losses due to movements in exchange rates between the functional currency and the currency in which a foreign currency transaction is denominated are recognized as “Other income (expense), net” in the Company’s consolidated statements of income.

Self-Insurance
The Company typically utilizes third-party insurance subject to varying retention levels or self-insurance. The Company is self-insured for a portion of the losses and liabilities primarily associated with workers’ compensation, general, professional, automobile, employee matters, certain medical plans, and project-specific liability claims. Losses are accrued based upon the Company’s estimates of the aggregate liability for claims incurred using historical experience and certain actuarial assumptions, as provided by an independent actuary. The estimate of self-insurance liability includes an estimate of incurred but not reported claims, based on data compiled from historical experience.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In the fourth quarter of 2024, The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2024-04, "Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20)" ("ASU 2024-04"). ASU 2024-04 improves the relevance and consistency in application of the induced conversion guidance in Subtopic 470-20, Debt– Debt with Conversion and Other Options . The amendments in ASU 2024-04 clarify the requirements for determining whether certain settlements of convertible debt instruments should be accounted for as an induced conversion. Under the amendments, to account for a settlement of a convertible debt instrument as an induced conversion, an inducement offer is required to provide the debt holder with, at a minimum, the consideration (in form and amount) issuable under the conversion privileges provided in the terms of the instrument. The amendments in this Update are effective for all entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted for all entities that have adopted the amendments in ASU 2020-06. The Company adopted ASU 2020-06 in the first quarter of 2021. The Company has elected to early adopt ASU 2024-04 as of January 1, 2024 on a prospective basis. The adoption of this ASU had a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In the fourth quarter of 2024, The FASB Issued ASU 2024-03 "Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40)" (ASU 2024-03"). ASU 2024-03 requires disclosure, in the notes to financial statements, of specified information about certain costs and expenses. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this ASU will only impact disclosures and will no t have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In the fourth quarter of 2023, The FASB Issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-09, "Income Taxes (Topic 740)" ("ASU 2023-09"). ASU 2023-09 enhances the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 addresses investor requests for more transparency about income tax information through improvements to income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. ASU 2023-09 also includes certain other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. We adopted the standard and applied the disclosure requirements on a prospective basis effective for the year ended December 31, 2025. This ASU was adopted in the fourth quarter of 2025 , prospectively. The adoption of this ASU will only impact disclosures and did no t have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In the fourth quarter of 2023, The FASB Issued ASU 2023-07, "Segment Reporting (Topic 280)". ASU 2023-07 introduces enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses along with other enhanced segment disclosures. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The adoption of this ASU only impacted disclosures and did no t have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

PARSONS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023
Stock-based compensation expense was $ 34.0 million, $ 52.6 million, and $ 27.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 , respectively, net of recognized tax benefits of $ 6.2 million, $ 8.9 million, and $ 8.6 million for 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The tax benefit realized related to awards vested during 2025, 2024, and 2023 was $ 9.1 million, $ 12.0 million, and $ 4.3 million, respectively. We recognize forfeitures as they occur.
At December 31, 2025 , the amount of compensation cost relating to non-vested awards not yet recognized in the consolidated financial statements is $ 37.5 million. The majority of these unrecognized compensation costs will be recognized by the fourth quarter of fiscal 2027.
Restricted Stock Units
Restricted Stock Units awards are issued under the Incentive Award Plan and are settled by the issuance of the Company’s common stock. Outstanding awards have been granted based on either service or service and performance conditions. Awards vest over three-year periods, either annually or cliff. Expense is recognized on an accelerated basis for awards with service conditions only and on a straight-line basis for awards that include performance conditions. Expense recognition of awards with performance criteria are subject to the probability of meeting the performance conditions and adjusted for the number of shares expected to be earned. Compensation cost for awards with performance conditions are trued-up at each reporting period for changes in the expected shares pro-rated for the portion of the requisite service period rendered. For awards that include market conditions, the grant date fair value is determined using a Monte Carlo simulation. Inputs to the Monte Carlo model include the vesting period, historical stock volatilities for Parsons and a peer group commensurate with a look back period equal to the vesting period.
The following table presents the number of shares of restricted stock units granted (at target shares for awards with performance conditions) for the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

The number of units granted for awards with performance conditions in the above table is based on performance at the target amount. The number of shares ultimately issued, which could be greater or less than target, will be based on achieving specific performance conditions related to the awards. During the years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, certain restricted stock unit grants with performance conditions vested with performance different from the target share amounts. As a result, 156,312 and 99,280 additional shares, respectively were granted and vested.

In June 2025, the Company terminated its $ 350 million Delayed Draw Term Loan due 2025 and its $ 650 million Revolving Credit Facility due 2026 and replaced these credit facilities with a $ 450 million Term Loan due 2028 and a $ 750 million Revolving Credit Facility due 2030. Proceeds from the Term Loan were used to payoff the outstanding balance of the Delayed Draw Term Loan.
Term Loan
In June 2025 , the Company entered into a $ 450 million unsecured Term Loan with an increase option of up to $ 150 million. Proceeds of the Term Loan Agreement may be used (a) to pay off in full, or partially payoff, the Company’s existing Convertible Senior Notes, (b) to prepay revolving loans outstanding under the Revolving Credit Agreement (as defined below), or (c) for working capital, capital expenditures and other lawful corporate purposes. The Company incurred $ 0.9 million of debt issuance costs in connection with the Term Loan as of December 31, 2025. These costs are presented as a direct deduction from long-term debt on the face of the balance sheet. Interest expense related to the Term Loan was $ 14.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, of which $ 0.2 million was related to the
F- 39

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

amortization of debt fees. The amortization of debt issuance costs and interest expense is recorded in “Interest expense” on the consolidated statements of income. As of December 31, 2025 there was $ 450 million outstanding under the Term Loan.
The Term Loan has a three-year maturity and permits the Company to borrow in U.S. dollars. The Term Loan does not require any amortization payments by the Company. Depending on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio (or debt rating after such time as the Company has such rating), borrowings under the Term Loan Agreement will bear interest at either an adjusted Term SOFR benchmark rate plus a margin between 0.875 % and 1.500 % or a base rate plus a margin of between 0 % and 0.500 % and will initially bear interest at the middle of this range. Amounts outstanding under the Term Loan Agreement may be prepaid at the option of the Company without premium or penalty, subject to customary breakage fees in connection with the prepayment of benchmark rate loans. The interest rate on December 31, 2025 was 4.8 %.
Delayed Draw Term Loan (Terminated June 2025 )
In September 2022 , the Company entered into a $ 350 million unsecured Delayed Draw Term Loan with an increase option of up to $ 150 million (the “2022 Delayed Draw Term Loan”). Proceeds of the 2022 Delayed Draw Term Loan Agreement may be used (a) to pay off in full, or partially payoff, the Company’s existing Senior Notes, (b) to prepay revolving loans outstanding under the Revolving Credit Agreement (as defined below), or (c) for working capital, capital expenditures and other lawful corporate purposes. The Company incurred $ 0.9 million of debt issuance costs in connection with the delayed draw term loan. These costs are presented as a direct deduction from long-term debt on the face of the balance sheet. Interest expense related to the Delayed Draw Term Loan was $ 8.7 million, $ 23.1 million and 22.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Included in these amounts was amortization of debt fees of $ 0.2 million, $ 0.3 million, and $ 0.3 million, respectively. The amortization of debt issuance costs and interest expense is recorded in “Interest expense” on the consolidated statements of income. There was no amount outstanding as of December 31, 2025 and $ 350.0 million outstanding as of December 31, 2024 under the Delayed Draw Term Loan.
The 2022 Delayed Draw Term Loan has a three-year maturity and permits the Company to borrow in U.S. dollars. The 2022 Delayed Draw Term Loan does not require any amortization payments by the Company. Depending on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio (or debt rating after such time as the Company has such rating), borrowings under the 2022 Delayed Draw Term Loan Agreement will bear interest at either an adjusted Term SOFR benchmark rate plus a margin between 0.875 % and 1.500 % or a base rate plus a margin of between 0 % and 0.500 % and will initially bear interest at the middle of this range. The Company will pay a ticking fee on unused term loan commitments at a rate of 0.175 % commencing with the date that is ninety (90) days after the Closing Date. Amounts outstanding under the 2022 Delayed Draw Term Loan Agreement may be prepaid at the option of the Company without premium or penalty, subject to customary breakage fees in connection with the prepayment of benchmark rate loans. The interest rates on June 30, 2025 (loan termination period) and December 31, 2024 were 5.6 % and 5.6 %, respectively.
Convertible Senior Notes due 2025
In August 2020, the Company issued an aggregate $ 400.0 million of 0.25 % Convertible Senior Notes due 2025, including the exercise of a $ 50.0 million initial purchasers’ option. The Company received proceeds from the issuance and sale of the Convertible Senior Notes of $ 389.7 million, net of $ 10.3 million of transaction fees and other third-party offering expenses. The Convertible Senior Notes accrue interest at a rate of 0.25 % per annum, payable semi-annually on February 15 and August 15 of each year beginning on February 15, 2021 , and matured on August 15, 2025, unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted. The convertible Senior Notes due 2025 matured on August 15, 2025 .
The Company recognized interest expense of $ 0.1 million, $ 3.9 million and $ 3.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively . Included in these

amounts were the amortization of debt fees of $ 3.5 million and $ 2.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The debt issuance costs were full amortized during the year ended December 31, 2024. There was no amount outstanding as of December 31, 2025 and the net carrying value of the Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 was $ 113.4 million as of December 31, 2024.
See the discussion of the partial repurchase of Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 and the unwind of the related note hedge and warrants below.
Note Hedge and Warrant - Convertible Senior Notes due 2025
In connection with the sale of the Convertible Senior Notes, the Company purchased a bond hedge designed to mitigate the potential dilution from the conversion of the Convertible Senior Notes. Under the five-year term of the bond hedge, upon a conversion of the bonds, the Company will receive the number of shares of common stock equal to the remaining common stock deliverable upon conversion of the Convertible Senior Notes if the conversion value exceeds the principal amount of the Notes. The aggregate number of shares that the Company could be obligated to issue upon conversion of the Convertible Senior Notes is approximately 8.9 million shares. The cost of the convertible note hedge transactions was $ 55.0 million.
The cost of the convertible note hedge was partially offset by the Company’s sale of warrants to acquire approximately 8.9 million shares of the Company’s common stock. The warrants were initially exercisable at a price of at least $ 66.46 per share and are subject to customary adjustments upon the occurrence of certain events, such as the payment of dividends. The Company received $ 13.8 million in cash proceeds from the sales of these warrants.
The bond hedge and warrant transactions effectively increased the conversion price associated with the Convertible Senior Notes during the term of these transactions from 35 %, or $ 44.86 , to 100 %, or $ 66.46 , at their issuance, thereby reducing the dilutive economic effect to shareholders upon actual conversion.
The bond hedges and warrants are indexed to, and potentially settled in, shares of the Company’s common stock. The net cost of $ 41.2 million for the purchase of the bond hedges and sale of the warrants was recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital in the consolidated balance sheets.
Convertible Senior Notes due 2029
In February 2024, the Company issued an aggregate $ 800.0 million of 2.625 % Convertible Senior Notes due 2029 (the “2029 Convertible Notes”), including the exercise of a $ 100.0 million initial purchasers’ option in full. The Company received proceeds from the issuance and sale of the 2029 Convertible Notes of $ 781.1 million, net of $ 18.9 million of transaction fees and other third-party offering expenses. The 2029 Convertible Notes accrue interest at a rate of 2.625 % per annum, payable semi-annually on March 1 and September 1 of each year beginning on September 1, 2024 , and will mature on March 1, 2029 , unless earlier repurchased, redeemed or converted.
The 2029 Convertible Notes are the Company’s senior unsecured obligations and will rank senior in right of payment to any of the Company’s indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the 2029 Convertible Notes; equal in right of payment to any of the Company’s unsecured indebtedness that is not so subordinated; effectively junior in right of payment to any of the Company’s secured indebtedness, including borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility and term loan credit facility, to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness; and structurally junior to all indebtedness and other liabilities (including trade payables) of the Company’s subsidiaries.
Each $ 1,000 of principal of the 2029 Convertible Notes will initially be convertible into 10.6256 shares of our common stock, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $ 94.11 per share, subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of specified events. On or after October 1, 2028

until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date of the 2029 Convertible Notes, holders may convert all or a portion of their 2029 Convertible Notes, regardless of the conditions below.
Prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding October 1, 2028, the 2029 Convertible Notes will be convertible at the option of the holders thereof only under the following circumstances:
• during any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on June 30, 2024, if the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock for at least 20 trading days, whether or not consecutive, during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on, and including the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter, is greater than or equal to 130 % of the conversion price on each applicable trading day;
• during the five business day period after any ten consecutive trading day period in which, for each trading day of that period, the trading price per $ 1,000 principal amount of 2029 Convertible Notes for such trading day was less than 98 % of the product of the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day;
• if the Company calls such 2029 Convertible Notes for redemption; or
• upon the occurrence of specified corporate events described in the Indenture.
The Company may redeem all or any portion of the 2029 Convertible Notes for cash, at its option, on or after March 8, 2027 and before the 51 st scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date at a redemption price equal to 100 % of the principal amount of the 2029 Convertible Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, but only if the last reported sale price per share of the Company’s common stock exceeds 130 % of the conversion price for a specified period of time. In addition, calling any 2029 Convertible Notes for redemption will constitute a Make-Whole Fundamental Change with respect to that 2029 Convertible Note, in which case the conversion rate applicable to the conversion of that 2029 Convertible Notes will be increased in certain circumstances if it is converted after it is called for redemption.
Upon the occurrence of a fundamental change prior to the maturity date of the 2029 Convertible Notes, holders of the 2029 Convertible Notes may require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of the 2029 Convertible Notes for cash at a price equal to 100 % of the principal amount of the 2029 Convertible Notes to be repurchased, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date.
Upon conversion, the Company will settle the principal amount of the 2029 Convertible Notes converted in cash and will settle the remainder of the consideration owed upon conversion in cash, shares of the Company’s common stock, or a combination thereof, at the Company’s option, with such amount of cash and, if applicable, shares of common stock due upon conversion based on a daily conversion value calculated on a proportionate basis for each trading day in a 50-trading day observation period.
The Company recognized interest expense with respect to the Convertible Senior Notes Due 2029 of $ 25.2 million and $ 21.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. Included in these amounts was amortization of debt fees of $ 4.2 million and $ 3.5 million, respectively As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 , the net carrying value of the Convertible Notes due 2029 were $ 788.5 million and $ 784.3 million, respectively.
Capped Call Transactions - Convertible Senior Notes due 2029
F- 42
PARSONS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023
In February 2024, in connection with the offering of the 2029 Convertible Notes, the Company entered into capped call transactions (the “Capped Call Transactions”) with certain financial institutions. The Capped Call Transactions are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution to the Company’s common stock upon any conversion of the Convertible Senior Notes due 2029 and/or offset any cash payments the Company is required to make in excess of the principal amount of any converted Convertible Senior Notes due 2029, as the case may be. If, however, the market price per share of the Company’s common stock, as measured under the terms of the Capped Call Transactions, exceeds the cap price of the Capped Call Transactions, there would nevertheless be dilution and/or there would not be an offset of such cash payments, in each case, to the extent that such market price exceeds the cap price of the Capped Call Transactions.
The cap price of the Capped Call Transactions is initially $ 131.7575 per share, which represents a premium of 75 % over the last reported sale price of the Company’s common stock of $ 75.29 per share on the New York Stock Exchange on February 21, 2024, and is subject to certain adjustments under the terms of the Capped Call Transactions. The cost of $ 88.4 million for the Capped Call Transactions was recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital in the consolidated balance sheets.
At issuance, the Company recorded a deferred tax asset of $ 22.3 million related to the Capped Call Transactions costs through additional paid-in capital. The deferred tax asset was included in Deferred tax assets in the consolidated balance sheets.
Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 Partial Repurchase and Note Hedge and Warrants Partial Unwind
In connection with the issuance of the Convertible Senior Notes due 2029, during the first quarter of 2024, we used $ 391.8 million of the net proceeds to purchase approximately $ 228.1 million aggregate principal amount of our Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 concurrently with the offering in separate and individually negotiated transactions. In addition, we used $ 103.8 million to settle the repurchase of approximately $ 56.5 million aggregate principal amount of our Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 in a separately negotiated transaction that settled in March 2024. We also received approximately $ 90.6 million in cash from the note hedge counterparties for the partial termination of the existing bond hedge relating to the Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 repurchased, net of our obligations to the counterparties in connection with the partial termination of the related warrant transactions. The tax effect of $ 46.2 million from the partial unwind of the existing bond hedge was recognized as a reduction in additional paid-in capital in the consolidated balance sheets. The income tax payable was included in Income taxes payable in the consolidated balance sheets.
The partial repurchase, during the year ended December 31, 2024, resulted in a $ 18.4 million repurchase loss 1 and a $ 3.2 million charge to interest expense for the acceleration of the amortization of debt issuance costs associated with the 0.25 % Convertible Senior Notes due 2025. The tax effect of the repurchase loss, excluding the interest expense, was recognized as a discrete event during the year ended December 31, 2024 with a tax benefit of $ 4.3 million recognized in the income statement.
1 During the first quarter of 2024, prior to the early adoption of ASU 2024-04, the Company recorded a $ 211.0 million loss on debt extinguishment associated with the 0.25 % Convertible Senior Notes due 2025. The tax effect of the debt extinguishment, excluding the interest expense, was recognized as a discrete event to the quarter giving rise to an increase in the effective tax rate and tax benefit of $ 49.9 million recognized in the income statement. Please see "Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies—New Accounting Pronouncements" for a discussion of the Company's adoption of ASU 2024-04. The extinguishment charge and related income tax impacts were reversed from the Company's consolidated financial statements and recorded as a convertible debt repurchase loss as described above.
Revolving Credit Facility due 2030
In June 2025 , the Company entered into a $ 750 million unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Credit Agreement”). The Company incurred $ 1.7 million of costs in connection with this Credit
F- 43

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Agreement. The 2025 Credit Agreement replaced an existing Credit Agreement dated as of June 25, 2021. Under the new agreement, the Company’s revolving credit facility was increased from $ 650 million to $ 750 million. The credit facility has a five-year maturity, which may be extended up to two times for periods determined by the Company and the applicable extending lenders, and permits the Company to borrow in U.S. dollars, certain specified foreign currencies, and each other currency that may be approved in accordance with the 2025 Facility. The borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at either the Term SOFR rate plus a margin between 1.0 % and 1.625 % or a base rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus a margin of between 0 % and 0.625 %. The rate on December 31, 2025 was 5.0 %. Letters of credit commitments outstanding under this agreement aggregated to $ 41.8 million at December 31, 2025 which reduced borrowing limits available to the Company.
Interest expense related to the Credit Agreements (due 2030 and due 2026) were $ 0.7 million, $ 0.7 million and $ 3.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Included in these amounts was amortization of debt fees of $ 0.5 million for all years presented.
The Credit Agreement includes various covenants, including restrictions on indebtedness, liens, acquisitions, investments or dispositions, payment of dividends and maintenance of certain financial ratios and conditions. The Company was in compliance with these covenants at December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
Letters of Credit
The Company also has in place several secondary bank credit lines for issuing letters of credit, principally for foreign contracts, to support performance and completion guarantees. Letters of credit commitments outstanding under these bank lines aggregated approximately $ 356.2 million and $ 328.4 million at December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 , respectively.

13. Income Taxes
In July 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) was enacted. Key income tax related provisions of the OBBBA include the repeal of mandatory capitalization of research and development expenditures under Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 174 (reinstating full expensing beginning in 2025) and extension of bonus depreciation. The Company recognized the income tax effects of the OBBBA in its 2025 financial statements, including a $ 29 million decrease to both income taxes payable and to current income tax expense, and a $ 29 million increase to deferred tax expense and a $ 29 million decrease to deferred tax assets as of December 31, 2025. The change in the tax law had no significant impact to the Company’s annual effective tax rate.

The effective tax rate in 2025 decreased to 19.3 % from 20.9 % in 2024. The change in the effective tax rate was due primarily to a change in the jurisdictional mix of earnings, decreases in the change of valuation allowance on NOLs and non-deductible executive compensation subject to Section 162(m), an increase in untaxed income attributable to noncontrolling interests, and an increase in business tax

The effective tax rate in 2024 decreased to 20.9 % from 21.3 % in 2023. The change in the effective tax rate was due primarily to tax benefits related to increases in the foreign-derived intangible income (FDII) deduction and increased equity-based compensation deductions, partially offset by an increase in valuation allowance on NOLs and non-deductible executive compensation subject to Section 162(m).

The Company is not asserting that any of the earnings of the foreign subsidiaries will be permanently reinvested. Therefore, the Company has recorded a deferred tax liability for the undistributed earnings net of applicable foreign tax credits.
The Company assesses the realizability of its deferred tax assets each reporting period through an analysis of potential sources of taxable income, including prior year taxable income available to absorb carryback of tax losses, reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, tax planning strategies, and forecasts of taxable income. The Company considers all negative and positive evidence, including the weight of the evidence, to determine if a valuation allowance against deferred tax assets is required. A valuation allowance is recorded against deferred tax assets to reflect the amount of deferred tax assets that is determined to be more-likely-than-not to be realized.
As of December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the Company’s valuation allowance against deferred tax assets was $ 50.6 million and $ 45.3 million, respectively. The Company has recorded a valuation allowance against certain tax attributes that the Company has determined are not more-likely-than-not to be realized, including certain foreign net operating loss carryforwards, foreign tax credit carryforwards, and capital loss carryforwards. From December 31, 2024 to December 31, 2025, the Company’s valuation allowance increased by $ 5.3 million. This increase relates to deferred tax assets recorded for net operating loss carryforwards and foreign tax credit carryforwards. The valuation allowance is recorded because the Company does not expect to utilize the carryforward amounts before they expire.

December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023
As of December 31, 2025, the Company has Net Operating Losses ("NOLs") of $ 2.0 million, $ 43.7 million, and $ 59.6 million for U.S. Federal, U.S. states and foreign jurisdictions, respectively. The utilization of the U.S. federal and U.S. state NOLs are subject to certain annual limitations. Of these NOL amounts, $ 2.0 million, $ 17.9 million and $ 25.1 million in U.S. Federal, U.S. states and foreign jurisdictions, respectively, do not expire. The remaining amounts of NOLs in U.S. states and in foreign jurisdictions will expire if not used between 2026 and 2046 .
As of December 31, 2025, the Company has foreign tax credit carryforwards of $ 39.0 million. The Company has provided a valuation allowance of $ 39.0 million as the Company considers it is not more likely than not that these credits will be realized. These foreign tax credits start expiring in the year 2029 .

At December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, there are $ 26.5 million and $ 28.6 million of unrecognized tax benefits that if recognized would affect the Company’s effective tax rate.
The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as part of its income tax expense. During the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023, the Company recognized approximately $ 0.7 million, $ 1.0 million, and $ 0.5 million in interest and penalties, respectively, in the consolidated statements of income. The total amount of interest and penalties accrued in the consolidated balance sheets was $ 6.3 million, $ 5.6 million, and $ 4.6 million as of December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively.
The Company conducts business globally and, as a result, the Company or one or more of its subsidiaries files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, various U.S. states, and foreign jurisdictions. The Company is subject to examination by tax authorities in several jurisdictions, including jurisdictions where the Company has significant activities, such as Canada, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and the United States. As of December 31, 2025, the Company’s U.S. federal income tax returns for tax years 2022 and forward remain subject to examination. U.S. states and foreign income tax returns remain subject to examination based on varying local statutes of limitations.
Although the Company believes its reserves for its tax positions are reasonable, the final outcome of tax audits could be significantly different, both favorably and unfavorably.
The amounts of cash income taxes paid (net of refunds received) by the Company were as follows (in thousands):

The change in tax law from OBBBA led to the reduction of 2025 income taxes paid.
14. Contingencies
The Company is subject to certain lawsuits, claims and assessments that arise in the ordinary course of business. Additionally, the Company has been named as a defendant in lawsuits alleging personal injuries as a result of contact with asbestos products at various project sites. Management believes that any significant costs relating to these claims will be reimbursed by applicable insurance and, although there can be no assurance that these matters will be resolved favorably, management believes that the ultimate resolution of any of these claims will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. A liability is recorded when it is both probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of loss or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. When using a range of loss estimate, the Company records the liability using the low end of the range unless some amount within the range of loss appears at that time to be a better estimate than any other amount in the range. The Company records a corresponding receivable for costs covered under its insurance policies. Management judgment is required to determine the outcome and the estimated amount of a loss related to such matters. Management believes that there are no claims or assessments outstanding which would materially affect the consolidated results of operations or the Company’s financial position.
In September 2015, a former Parsons employee filed an action in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Alabama against us as a qui tam relator on behalf of the United States (the “Relator”) alleging violation of the False Claims Act. The plaintiff alleges that, as a result of these actions, the United States paid in excess of $ 1 million per month between February and September 2006 that it should have paid to another contractor, plus $ 2.9 million to acquire vehicles for the contractor defendant to perform its security services. The lawsuit sought (i) that we cease and desist from violating the False Claims Act, (ii) monetary damages equal to three times the amount of damages that the United States has sustained because of our alleged violations, plus a civil penalty of not less than $ 5,500 and not more than $ 11,000 for each alleged violation of the False Claims Act, (iii) monetary damages equal to the maximum amount allowed pursuant to §3730(d) of the False Claims Act, and (iv) Relator’s costs for this action, including recovery of attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in the lawsuit. The United States government did not intervene in this matter as it is allowed to do so under the statute. The court heard dispositive motions in 2023, including Parsons’ motion for summary judgment. In March 2025, the court granted Parsons’ motion for summary judgment. The Relator has appealed this decision. We anticipate that oral argument will be heard by the appellate court in 2026.
On July 1, 2024, a final judgment was filed with the clerk of the Superior Court of the State of California In and For the County of San Mateo with an award of damages in the total amount of approximately $ 102.5 million in favor of Parsons Transportation Group, Inc. and against Alstom Signaling Operations LLC (Alstom"). This proposed award relates back to a lawsuit Parsons initially filed against the Peninsula Corridor Joint Powers Board for breach of contract and wrongful termination in February 2017

PARSONS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

(which was settled between Parsons and the Joint Powers Board in 2021) and a cross-complaint filed against Alstom Signaling Operations LLC in November 2017, as subsequently amended, for breach of contract, negligence and intentional misrepresentation. On September 23, 2024, the Court awarded pre-judgment interest in the amount of $ 34.0 million and amended the judgment accordingly to include such interest. Alstom filed a Notice of Appeal and has posted a bond as required under California law. The appellate briefs have been filed with Parsons having until February 2026 to file their final brief. We anticipate oral argument will occur in 2026.
At this time, the Company is unable to determine the probability of the outcome of the litigation.
Federal government contracts are subject to audits, which are performed for the most part by the Defense Contract Audit Agency (“DCAA”). Audits by the DCAA and other agencies consist of reviews of our overhead rates, operating systems and cost proposals to ensure that we account for such costs in accordance with the Federal Acquisition Regulations (“FAR”). If the DCAA determines we have not accounted for such costs in accordance with the FAR, the DCAA may disallow these costs. The disallowance of such costs may result in a reduction of revenue and additional liability for the Company. Historically, the Company has not experienced any material disallowed costs as a result of government audits. However, the Company can provide no assurance that the DCAA or other government audits will not result in material disallowances for incurred costs in the future. All audits of costs incurred on work performed through 2023 have been closed, and years thereafter remain open. All of Parsons operating systems have been deemed adequate by the U.S. federal government.
Although there can be no assurance that these matters will be resolved favorably, management believes that their ultimate resolution will not have a material adverse impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
15. Retirement and Other Benefit Plans
The Company’s principal retirement benefit plan is the ESOP, a stock bonus plan, established in 1975 to cover eligible employees of the Company and certain affiliated companies. Contributions of treasury stock to ESOP are made annually in amounts determined by the Company’s board of directors and are held in trust for the sole benefit of the participants. Shares allocated to a participant’s account are fully vested after three years of credited service, or in the event(s) of reaching age 65, death or disability while an active employee of the Company. As of December 31, 2025, the total shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding were 106,968,082 , of which 50,864,117 were held by the ESOP. As of December 31, 2024 , the total shares of the Company’s common stock outstanding were 106,775,350 of which 54,117,903 were held by the ESOP.
A participant’s interest in their ESOP account is redeemable upon certain events, including retirement, death, termination due to permanent disability, a severe financial hardship following termination of employment, certain conflicts of interest following termination of employment, or the exercise of diversification rights. Distributions from the ESOP of participants’ interests are made in the Company’s common stock based on quoted prices of a share of the Company’s common stock on the NYSE. A participant will be able to sell such shares of common stock in the market, subject to any requirements of the federal securities laws.
Total ESOP contribution expense was approximately $ 72.5 million, $ 59.8 million and $ 58.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, and is recorded in “Direct costs of contracts” and “Selling, general and administrative expense” in the consolidated statements of income.
The Company also maintains a defined contribution plan (the “401(k) Plan”). Substantially all domestic employees are entitled to participate in the 401(k) Plan, subject to certain minimum requirements. The Company’s contributions to the 401(k) Plan for the years ended December 31, 2025,

16. Investments in and Advances to Joint Ventures
The Company participates in joint ventures to bid, negotiate and complete specific projects. The Company is required to consolidate these joint ventures if it holds the majority voting interest or if the Company meets the criteria under the consolidation model, as described below.
The Company performs an analysis to determine whether its variable interests give the Company a controlling financial interest in a VIE for which the Company is the primary beneficiary and should, therefore, be consolidated. Such analysis requires the Company to assess whether it has the power to direct the activities of the VIE and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIE.
The Company analyzed all of its joint ventures and classified them into two groups: (1) joint ventures that must be consolidated because they are either not VIEs and the Company holds the majority voting interest, or because they are VIEs and the Company is the primary beneficiary; and (2) joint ventures that do not need to be consolidated because they are either not VIEs and the Company holds a minority voting interest, or because they are VIEs and the Company is not the primary beneficiary.
Many of the Company’s joint venture agreements provide for capital calls to fund operations, as necessary; however, such funding is infrequent and is not anticipated to be material.
Letters of credit outstanding described in ‘Note 11— Debt and Credit Facilities ” that relate to project ventures are approximately $ 184.4 million and $ 176.7 million at December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
In the table below, aggregated financial information relating to the Company’s joint ventures is provided because their nature, risk and reward characteristics are similar. None of the Company’s current joint ventures that meet the characteristics of a VIE are individually significant to the consolidated financial statements.

The assets of the consolidated joint ventures are restricted for use only by the particular joint venture and are not available for the Company’s general operations.
Unconsolidated Joint Ventures
The Company accounts for its unconsolidated joint ventures using the equity method of accounting. Under this method, the Company recognizes its proportionate share of the net earnings of these joint ventures as “Equity in earnings (loss) of unconsolidated joint ventures” in the consolidated statements of income. The Company’s maximum exposure to loss as a result of its investments in unconsolidated VIEs is typically limited to the aggregate of the carrying value of the investment and future funding commitments.
The following represents the financial information of the Company’s unconsolidated joint ventures as presented in their unaudited financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 (in thousands):

18. Fair Value
The authoritative guidance on fair value measurement defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (referred to as an “exit price”). At December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 the Company’s financial instruments include cash, cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and other liabilities. The fair values of these financial instruments approximate their carrying values due to their short-term maturities.
Investments measured at fair value are based on one or more of the following three valuation techniques:
• Market approach —Prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities;
• Cost approach —Amount that would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset (i.e., replacement cost); and
• Income approach —Techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount based on market expectations (including present value techniques, option-pricing models and lattice models).
In addition, the guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:
Level 1
Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical assets and liabilities;
Level 2
Pricing inputs that include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the derivative instrument; and
Level 3
Prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurements and unobservable.
The methods described above may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while the Company believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date.
In determining the fair value of acquired intangible assets from our business acquisitions, the Company uses the multi-period excess earnings method to value customer relationships and backlog and values developed technologies using the relief-from royalty method. These valuation methods use
F- 53
PARSONS CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023
significant unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. See "Note 2— Summary of Significant Accounting Policies."
We measure contingent consideration at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. See "Note 2— Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" and "Note 3— Acquisitions" for further information.
With respect to equity-based compensation, for restricted stock units containing service conditions or service and performance conditions, the grant date fair value is based on the closing stock price of a share of the Company’s common stock on the NYSE on the grant date. For awards that include market conditions, the grant date fair value is determined using a Monte Carlo simulation.
The carrying values and estimated fair values of our financial instruments that are not required to be recorded at fair value in our consolidated balance sheets, on the basis of Level 1 inputs for the Company's convertible notes and Level 2 inputs for the term loan, were as follows (in thousands):

19. Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period and income available to shareholders. Diluted EPS includes additional common shares that would have been outstanding if potential common shares with a dilutive effect had been issued using the if-converted method for Convertible Debt and the treasury stock method for all other instruments.
Under the treasury stock method, the weighted average number of shares outstanding is adjusted to reflect the dilutive effects of stock-based awards and shares underlying the warrants related to the convertible senior notes due 2025.
Under the if-converted method:
1. Convertible Senior Notes due 2025:
a. Income available to shareholders is adjusted to add back interest expense, after tax (unless antidilutive).
b. Weighted average number of shares outstanding is adjusted to include the shares underlying the convertible debt (unless antidilutive).
c. Shares underlying the bond hedge (unless antidilutive).
2. Convertible Senior Notes due 2029:
a. Interest has been excluded from the numerator and no shares have been included in the denominator of diluted EPS, as the principal amount of convertible debt will be settled in cash with any excess conversion value settled in cash or shares of common stock.

Share Repurchases
On August 9, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the Company to acquire a number of shares of Common Stock having an aggregate market value of not greater than $ 100 million from time to time, commencing on August 12, 2021 . The Board further amended this authorization in August 2022 to remove the prior expiration date and grant executive leadership the discretion to determine the price for such share repurchases. The Board further amended this authorization in March 2025 to increase and reset the repurchase capacity to $ 250 million. Any purchases made by the Company during Q1 of 2025 were deducted from the reset capacity.
Under prior authorizations, the Company had repurchased shares with an aggregate market value of $ 79.7 million. The aggregate market value of shares of Common Stock the Company is authorized to acquire from prior authorizations and the March 2025 authorization is not greater than $ 329.7 million.
As of December 31, 2025 , the Company has $ 125.0 million remaining under the stock repurchase program.
Repurchased shares of common stock are retired and included in “Repurchases of common stock” in cash flows from financing activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The primary purpose of the Company’s share repurchase program is to reduce the dilutive effect of shares issued under the Company’s ESOP and other stock benefit plans. The timing, amount and manner of share repurchases may depend upon market conditions and economic circumstances, availability of investment

20. Segments Information
The Company operates in two reportable segments: Federal Solutions and Critical Infrastructure.
The Federal Solutions segment provides advanced technical solutions to the U.S. government, delivering timely, cost-effective hardware, software and services for mission-critical projects. The segment provides advanced technologies, supporting national security missions in cyber operations, missile defense, and military facility modernization, logistics support, hazardous material remediation and engineering services.
The Critical Infrastructure segment provides integrated engineering and management services for complex physical and digital infrastructure around the globe. The Critical Infrastructure segment is a technology innovator focused on next generation digital systems and complex structures. Industry leading capabilities in engineering and project management allow the Company to deliver significant value to customers by employing cutting-edge technologies, improving timelines and reducing costs.
The Company defines its reportable segments based on the way the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), its Chief Executive Officer , evaluates the performance of each segment and manages the operations of the Company for purposes of allocating resources among the segments. The CODM evaluates segment operating performance using segment Revenue, segment direct cost of contracts, segment Selling, General and Administrative expense and segment Adjusted EBITDA attributable to Parsons Corporation.
The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA attributable to Parsons Corporation as Adjusted EBITDA excluding Adjusted EBITDA attributable to noncontrolling interests. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) attributable to Parsons Corporation, adjusted to include net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests and to exclude interest expense (net of interest income), provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization and certain other items that are not considered in the evaluation of ongoing operating performance. These other items include net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interests, asset impairment charges, income and expense recognized on litigation matters, expenses incurred in connection with acquisitions and other non-recurring transaction costs and expenses related to our prior restructuring.
Adjusted EBITDA is the measure of our operating performance used by the CODM to assess our segments’ financial performance. The CODM uses Adjusted EBITDA for business planning purposes, including to manage our segments against internal projected results of operations and measure the performance of our segments generally .
