MERGERS & ACQUISITIONS OVERVIEW

Last year’s Aerospace & Defense merger & acquisition activity highlighted the underlying structural characteristics of an indus- try dominated by an airframe duopoly, powered by a handful of engine makers, and the reactive efforts of a vast consolidating supply base. Airbus and Boeing sought to expand their dominance by: completing transactions with smaller regional aircraft, bringing work back in house, and extending profitability over the life of an aircraft. Meanwhile, suppliers worked to counter balance OEM pressures by combining and building out complete systems capabilities. Private equity investors have become integral to the consolidation of a previously highly fragmented supply base, enabling founders to retire from companies which in many cases have expanded beyond the financial suitability of individual ownership.

The number of Aerospace & Defense M&A transactions in North America remained broadly stable in 2017 increasing 2.0%. This com- pares to a 16.0% decline in the prior year when component man- Structural factors underlying sector ufacturing transactions retreated from extraordinary peaks and are M&A of dominant OEMs and a con- well above the 10.0% decline in the number of North American M&A “ solidating supply base are likely to transactions across all industries. continue for years to come.

Pacific shocks In Commercial Aerospace, industry sales rose slightly and production ” increases are expected as orders picked back up. Backlogs at Boeing and Airbus average eight years but mask a decades-long shift to single aisle aircraft. Worldwide passenger traffic grew 7.5%, far exceeding long-term 4.5% growth forecasts. Such expectations are increasingly dependent on the expansion of the Asia Pacific fleet, with the region projected to account for 40.0% of new deliveries—more than the mature markets of Europe and North America combined. The other glaring 40.0% customer dependency is to the leasing industry, which is reliant on a continual inflow of fresh funds to support purchases and where capital has been pouring in, again from Asia Pacific sources. Although U.S. airline profitability has risen to a level where alternative financing options are available if needed, the same is not true of the rest of the world where margins remain half those of the U.S.

In defense, the President’s 2019 Budget request was for a 10.0% increase, with a transition in spending to Great Power com- petition rather than terrorism as the primary focus of U.S. national security. Notable areas of increase are therefore in Ground Forces, Space Systems, Missiles & Munitions, and RDT&E. M&A activity has followed, with Northrop acquiring Orbital ATK to gain launch & propulsion, missiles, and space systems capabilities, while smaller transactions have been to build out systems in defense electronics and C4ISR/Geointelligence.

Defense spending increases have also fueled a step up in Govern- ment IT Services, as revenue expectations have improved, together with increased budgetary visibility, and a commitment to IT systems infrastructure, modernization. These macro trends, combined with historic valuations, profitability and cash balances have broadened M&A activity. Acquisitions have expanded beyond portfolio re- organization and are adding capabilities in high growth areas of cybersecurity, cloud computing, data analytics, intelligence, C4ISR, and firms holding strategic contract vehicles. As the sector heats up, we are witnessing activity by a wider group of buyers, including non-traditional and financial players, attracted by a significant uplift in the defense IT market and targeting more diversified IT service organizations.

Cybersecurity has seen exceptional growth as breaches continue to escalate, while the world becomes ever more reliant on inter-

Large strategic and private equity play- ers have made acquisitions in commercial flight simulation to access ” a sizeable market and target pilot shortages, while strong growth has been seen in military adoption as improved reality and gaming technologies have met greater training needs and increased availability.

Looking to the future, the structural factors underlying sector M&A of dominant OEMs and a consolidating supply base are likely to continue for years to come. However, the level of activity is driven by the economic temperature and ambitions of industry participants. Private equity has even greater amounts of capital to put to work, and while news from Commercial Aerospace continues to be good, the sector is highly susceptible to Asia Pacific shocks due to its dependency on the region for fleet expansion and financing.

Increases in defense spending are fueling expectations of increased M&A in Defense and Defense IT, while technology advanc- es are also likely to drive acquisitions as:

 Prime defense companies fill gaps in Great Power competition priorities.  IT providers access growth areas.  Cyber players build out product capabilities and consolidate customer offerings.  Advances bring new simulation and training methods.

MERGERS & ACQUISITIONS UPDATE Structure of Industry Highlighted By M&A

Major industry themes highlighted by Aerospace & Defense merg- er & acquisition activity in 2017 were illustrative of an introductory economics class, demonstrating the underlying structural character- Last year’s M&A activity highlighted istics of an industry dominated by an airframe duopoly, powered by underlying structural characteristics of a handful of engine makers, and the reactive efforts a vast and frag- “an industry dominated by an airframe mented but consolidating supply base: duopoly, powered by a handful of  Airbus and Boeing sought to secure their dominance, through engine makers, and the reactive efforts combinations with makers of smaller regional aircraft: Airbus a vast fragmented but consolidating agreed to buy a 50.0% stake in the Bombardier CSeries program supply base and Boeing seeks formal ties with Embraer. ”  OEMs also looked to capture more profit per plane and expand input over the life of the aircraft as illustrated by Boeing: bringing more work back in house after a period of outsourcing (i.e. avionics); rumored talks with Woodward; and ongo- ing expansion in the aftermarket building on their 2006 acquisition of Aviall.

 Top suppliers merged to counter balance the power of Boeing and Airbus and capture a greater share of the aircraft: witness UTC’s (owner of engine maker Pratt & Whitney) $30.0 billion acquisition of avionics leader Rockwell Collins; and in Europe propulsion business Safran’s acquisition of interior business Zodiac.

 Suppliers also sought to build out product capabilities, and expand systems incorporating data analysis, as illustrated by a host of smaller C4ISR acquisitions.

 Private equity have supported the ongoing consolidation of a previously fragmented supply base as they continue their buy and build strategies, particularly in component manufacturing and support services, with divestitures to larger private equity groups and strategic buyers.

Aerospace & Defense Electronics rose 13.0% by number of trans- actions to 20.0% of the total deal volume.  Defense IT & Technology transactions fell 6.0% to 17.0% of sec- tor transactions.

The value of disclosed sector transactions rose to $60.0 billion and included the announced $30.0 billion acquisition of Rockwell Collins

by UTC. Comparitively, the disclosed transaction value for 2017 was above that of 2015 ($50.0 billion), 2014 ($33.0 billion) and 2013 ($50.0 billion), but below that of 2015 ($90.0 billion), which included the $40.0 billion acquisition of Precision Castparts by Berkshire Hathaway.

Private Equity Is Integral To Consolidation of The Supply Base

tional PE themes of: niche businesses operating in growth markets with strong aftermarket, diversity of customers, and lower capital expenditures.

The spread in valuation multiples between those paid for small and large businesses is a significant driver of private equity in- terest, with PE investors benefiting from multiple arbitrage by buying several smaller companies purchased at lower valuations and combining them to create a larger business sold at a higher multiple. Slightly more than half of the sector acquisitions by PE firms in 2017 were by operating companies already under PE ownership, with the balance being new platform investments in the space.

Increased interest in larger businesses is consistent with private equity trends overall, as capital available for investment reached new highs on increased fund raising, larger average fund sizes, and a decline in quality deal flow.

Cadence Aerospace, a consolidation of numerous smaller suppliers, is illustrative of PE sector involvement. The company is now under its third group of private equity owners, having changed hands again last year. Our team worked for the seller on the very first of these transactions over a decade ago, a machine shop purchased by the former Chairman of TIMET before Platte River started as a fund.

Rising Public Company Values On Flat Earnings

Our pubic company Aerospace & Defense Enterprise Value Index rose 10.0% during 2017, with a 10.0% increase in EV/EBITDA multiples to 13.0x on broadly flat earnings (1.0% uptick in EBITDA). This compares with an equity return of 19.0% for the S&P index overall. By subsector:

 Prime Defense and Aerospace & Defense Electronics now trade at the highest public multiples around 15.0x EBITDA, fol- lowing a 30.0% increase during the year.

 Component Manufacturing, Defense IT, and Support Services rose by 8.0%, to end the year around 13.0x EBITDA.

It was only in 2012 that prime defense companies traded at enterprise values as low as 5.6x EBITDA in the public markets, almost a third of their current level. Over the same period prime defense earnings have risen 15.0% in total, reflecting both a general increase in stock market multiples and improved earnings expectation for the sector.

Widening M&A Transaction Multiples

In private M&A transactions size is a huge factor in sector valuation where multiples on large transactions are typically twice those of In private M&A transactions, size is a smaller ones. Throughout 2017, valuation multiples on larger trans- huge factor in sector valuation, with actions increased, further widening the spread between multiples on “multiples on large transactions being large and small transactions. Full public market valuations, plentiful twice those of smaller ones private equity capital seeking investment, greater debt availability, and few alternative high return investment opportunities are contrib- uting factors, together with increased defense spending and a strong ” outlook for commercial aicraft production.

 For transactions of the Aerospace & Defense sector overall, those under $50.0 million have taken place a touch over 6.0x EBITDA, those between $50.0-100.0 million approach 8.0x EBITDA, while those over $100.0 million have been around 12.0x. Data has been combined for three years (2015-2017), using disclosed multiples on an unadjusted basis and typically feature acquisitions by public companies.

8 Aerospace & Defense Outlook | 2018 Annual Report

 A similar trend can be seen for Aerospace & Defense Component Manufacturing transactions. Deals under $50.0 million have taken place a touch under 6.0x EBITDA, while those between $50.0-100.0 million have been half a turn higher at 6.5x EBITDA. Transactions between $100.0-500.0 million have approached 10.0x EBITDA, while those between $500.0 million and 1.0 billion are at 11.0x EBITDA, and those over $1.0 billion have reached almost 14.0x EBITDA. Data covers the period 2012-2017 and includes disclosed multiples on an unadjusted basis.  In acquisitions by private equity groups across Manufacturing and Business Services, multiples on an adjusted basis report- ed by GF Data can be summarized as: -- Traditionally showing transactions of between: $10.0-25.0 million around 5.5x EBITDA, $25.0-50.0 million around 6.0x EBITDA, $50.0-100.0 million around 7.0x EBITDA and those between $100.0-250.0 million around 8.0x EBITDA. -- However, valuations last year can be seen to be around one turn of EBITDA higher than the long-term average, particu- larly on larger transactions, with companies between $10.0-25.0 million changing hands around 6.0x EBITDA, $25.0-50.0 million around 6.5x EBITDA, $50.0-100.0 million around 8.0x EBITDA and those between $100.0-250.0 million around 9.0x EBITDA. -- Companies with substantially superior financial performance (in terms of growth and profitability) were around one turn of EBITDA higher still, with private equity buyers seeking large high-quality businesses.

While significant, size is only one factor impacting M&A valuations. Other considerations that drive value in the sector include:  Growth prospects and quality of the business, management and equipment.  Customer diversification or dependency, and contracts and programs that the company benefits from, particularly the portion of revenues which may be generated from small business or otherwise set aside contracts, compared with com- petitively awarded prime contracts.  Product innovation and the strategic value of a target’s capabilities and offerings to acquirer.

Serial Strategic Acquirers Remain Active

The most frequent strategic acquirers last year included:  L3 Technologies: with four acquisitions, three in undersea systems and one in flight training.  HEICO: with three acquisitions, two in electronics and one in unmanned systems.  Mercury Systems: with three acquisitions in microwave components, hardware & software engineering and computing.  TransDigm: also with three acquisitions, two in control systems and one in restraints. Private Equity Was Arguably Even More Active  AE Industrial making two new platform investments in CDI, an engineering staffing firm, and FMI, an aerospace structures firm. AEI’s portfolio companies were also active with Belcan, an engineering staffing firm, closing three acquisitions; aero- space component maker AC&A acquiring two composite businesses; and Kellstrom buying a repair business.  Arlington Capital made two new platform A&D investments: Tex Tech, a ballistics protection player, and Cadence, an aircraft component maker (previously owned by Platte River and subsequently Court Square). Their defense & intelligence port- folio company Polaris Alpha also made two acquisitions in IT and cyber. They also closed on a niche intelligence business, Xebec Global.  Apollo acquired Sun Country , while its private security portfolio company Constellis, the former Blackwater business made three security acquisitions. Battery portfolio company Vectra also made an acquisition in the A&D space.  Veritas: acquired technology services business Peraton (formerly Harris IT), engineering and IT firm Alion Science and Tech- nology, the public sector business of PWC, two engine related acquisitions for Standard Aero, an MRO purchase for related DAE Aviation, and is going public with its platform investment Perspecta, a combination of DXC’s public sector business, Vencore, and Keypoint.  HIG Capital acquired services firms Whitney, Bradley and Brown, and took NCI, Inc. private.

Large Transactions Continue

The value of disclosed sector transactions rose to $60.0 billion and included the announced $30.0 billion acquisition of Rockwell Collins by UTC. This compares with $50.0 billion the prior year, and ahead of the $33.0 billion in 2014 and $50.0 billion in 2013, but below 2015’s $90.0 billion, which included the $40.0 billion acquisition of Precision Castparts by Berkshire Hathaway.

The largest announced transaction of the year by far, was the $30.0 billion acquisition of Rockwell Collins by UTC, owner of engine maker Pratt & Whitney as it seeks to: build its position in communications, aviation & avionics systems, and cabin inte- riors (Rockwell had itself only closed on its $8.0 billion acquisition of BE aerospace earlier in the year); and improve its supplier negotiating position with Boeing and Airbus.

The second largest transaction, also pending, is the $9.0 billion acquisition of Orbital ATK by Northrop Grumman building their systems in: launch & propulsion, missiles & armaments, and electronics and space.

In February 2018, General Dynamics announced its intention to acquire government IT firm CSRA for $9.7 billion, thereby doubling the size of its Government IT Services business. Since then CACI has entered the fray with a competing bid. CSRA was formed two years ago when the federal arm of Computer Sciences was merged with SRA.

Another large transaction of note, excluded from our North American deal total, is the $9.0 billion acquisition of French aircraft interiors busi- ness Zodiac Aerospace, by the French propulsion business Safran. While similarities with the Rockwell / UTC deal are apparent, the recent financial trajectory of Rockwell and Zodiac differ, illustrated by Safran’s reduced offer in the face of Zodiac’s falling earnings.

10 Aerospace & Defense Outlook | 2018 Annual Report

Also internationally, UK aerospace component maker GKN (who started life producing cannon balls for the Napoleonic wars) is subject to a $12.0 billion takeover attempt by Melrose, which even if it does not ultimately culminate in a transaction, is likely to result in a restructuring and possible separation of the Aerospace and Automotive businesses.

No discussion would be complete without mention of Airbus and Boeing seeking to secure their dominance through combi- nations with makers of slightly smaller regional planes. Most recently, Airbus agreed to buy a 50.0% stake in the Bombardier CSeries program and Boeing announced plans to increase ties with Embraer.

Transactions in the $1.0-5.0 billion category include:  Digital Globe, a provider of satellite earth-imagery, data and analysis was acquired by Maxar Technologies in a $3.4 billion transaction.  Air Methods, an air medical transportation business was acquired by private equity firm American Securities in a $2.4 billion transaction from previous private equity investors.  American Medical Response, an air and ground medical transportation group, was acquired by KKR owned Air Medical Group in a $2.4 billion transaction. Air Medical was also owned by private equity prior to its acquisition by KKR in 2015.  3M acquired Scott Safety, a respiratory and personal protection equipment for military, homeland security, and emergency services, from Johnson Controls in a $2.0 billion transaction.  H.B. Fuller’s acquired Royal Adhesives & Sealants, an adhesives, sealants, coatings manufacturer for Aerospace, Defense and other markets, from PE firm American Securities for $1.6 billion.

Transactions valued between $0.5-1.0 billion include:  CIRCOR International purchased the fluid handling systems manufacturing business of Colfax for $0.8 billion.  Hexagon AB acquired MSC Software, a provider of simulation software solutions for engineers in Aerospace, Defense, and other markets, for $0.8 billion from Symphony Technology.  TTM Technologies acquired Anaren, a provider of RF components for satellite communications, space, defense, and elec- tronics, for $0.8 billion from PE firm Veritas.  Veritas Capital purchased Peraton, a provider of technology services and solutions to Space, Intelligence, Defense, and Civil markets, for $0.7 billion from .  On Assignment acquired ECS Federal for $0.8 billion.

Transactions under $0.5 billion include:  Stanley Black & Decker acquired Nelson Fastener Systems, the Fastener Distribution and Fastening System Components business of Aerospace Group Doncasters for $0.4 billion.  Sonaca SA acquired LMI Aerospace, provider of structural assemblies, kits & components, for $0.4 billion from Adage Cap- ital.  Dassault acquired Exa Corporation, a simulation software & services provider for vehicles, and Aerospace Aerodynamics & Aeroacoustics business from Soros Fund Management for $0.4 billion.  KEYW Holding acquired Sotera Defense Solutions, a provider of technology-based systems, solutions, services for national security agencies from Ares Management for $0.4 billion.  Ultra Electronics acquired former JV partner Sparton Corporation, a publicly traded provider of design, development, and manufacturing services for electromechanical devices and undersea warfare for $0.3 billion. Recently however, Ultra called off the $235.0 million deal, due to concerns that the Justice Department would not authorize antitrust clearance, as the deal would have created a consolidated supplier of underwater warfare technologies, such as anti-submarine sonar systems to the U.S. Navy.  HIG’s take private transaction of government services and IT firm NCI, Inc. for $0.3 billion.

Both L3 and ARA each acquired two SBIR businesses: L3 purchased subsea systems; and ARA unmanned & RF. A third of acquirers were international, and only 15.0% were acquisitions by firms that would likely continue to qualify as an ongoing small business.

Consequently, target firms with SBIR content have generally built a product, technology or business to a point where it is scal- able to the new owner either: in its own right with their additional market muscle; or through incorporating technology advan- tages into their current systems. The use of small firms to develop innovation backed by government funding can be viewed as providing new technologies at lower risk than in-house, ensuring only proven successes with a market need are adopted.

Airbus & Boeing To Increase Production

In 2017 Boeing and Airbus combined, showed a 3.0% increase in commercial aircraft deliveries while orders rebounded rising 24.0%. Backlog rose to around eight years of production.

While eight years is an unarguably long time, industry participants know only too well how orders can change as demonstrated by Virgin Atlantic’s recent cancellation of a request for six A380s that it placed in 2000 and American Airlines cancellation of its order of 22 A350’s placed in 2005.

Almost 90.0% of orders were for narrow body aircraft (737 and A320 families) which comprised slightly over 70.0% of produc- tion, highlighting the growth and popularity of narrow body and the resulting considerably lower backlogs in the wide body category. In 2017:  Boeing delivered 763 aircraft, received net orders for 1,031 planes, and ended the year with a backlog of 5,381 or seven years production.  Airbus delivered 718 aircraft, received orders for 1,109 planes, and ended the year with a backlog of 7,265 or 10 years pro- duction.  By aircraft type, Boeing deliveries comprised: 529 narrow body 737 family aircraft, 136 next generation 787 Dreamliners, and 98 other wide body commercial aircraft. Airbus deliveries comprised: 558 narrow body A320s, 78 next gen A350s, and 82 other wide body aircraft.

Passenger Growth Accelerates

Worldwide airline passenger miles exceeded forecasts growing 7.5% in 2017 as reported by IATA with a 6.0% increase in revenue on further slight price reductions. This led, again, to record passen- Worldwide Airline passenger traffic ex- ger load factors now reaching 82.0%, enabled by technology im- ceeded forecasts growing 7.5% provements and online booking tools. Cargo also grew by a strong “ 9.0% compared with 3.0% world economic growth. ” The Asia Pacific region showed the strongest growth in passenger traffic at 10.0%, while Europe, Middle East, Latin America, and Africa all grew 7.0%. North America growth was 4.0%. The biggest decline was in the Middle East which fell from the 12.0% average growth of the prior five years, and where commentators reflect concerns of overcapacity, increased competition, and pressure on yields in the face of prior rapid expansion and the impact of current oil prices on the region. There is also a concern of knock-on effects of lower or- ders, particularly in larger planes favored by Middle Eastern airlines.

Airline profitability remained at stronger levels with North Ameri- ca posting 13.0% EBIT margins, Asia Pacific 9.0%, Europe and Latin America 6.0%, and Middle East falling to just above EBIT break even. Overall airline worldwide returns on invested capital approached 10.0% in 2017, almost double the levels four or five years ago.

Capital Flows into Leasing Continue

Leasing companies are major customers for Airbus and Boeing and account for 40.0% of the worldwide fleet. Together the top 10 leas- ing companies own 60.0% of the global leased fleet. Another major 40.0% customer dependency is the leasing industry, which We have previously highlighted the leasing industry’s dependency “ is reliant on a continual inflow of funds on a continual inflow of funds to support growth, and this has been to support purchases as capital has been forthcoming as investors around the world seek yield.

However, the effects of both: a changing interest rate environment; and increased” capital from Asia Pacific, pose potential threats. Aggressive competition and involvement from China is causing market participants concern, fearing a decline in lease pricing and profitability.

MRO & Aftermarket Shifts

The expected doubling of the active aircraft fleet over the next 20 years points to a significant increase in aftermarket and service work. OEMs see OEMs seek to extend their income the need to increase service capacity for aircraft around the world, and we over life of the aircraft note Airbus expanding service training centers to create a sufficient pool of “ trained personnel. ” OEMs also see opportunity, with Boeing and engine makers seeking to extend their income over the life of the aircraft with greater involvement in the aftermarket. Boeing continues to build on their 2006 acquisition of Aviall, and one of the reasons cited for Rockwell’s sale to UTC was a response to Boeing’s in-house expansion into avionics.

Technological upgrades in avionics and cabin entertainment systems are an area of significant aftermarket activity. The next phase is increased use of data and aircraft health reporting data links, enabling predictive maintenance using live engine data intelligence connected directly to airlines and OEMs.

Towards that end, DOD is seeking funding for science and technology to further innovation ($13.7 billion),” and research related to hyperson- ics, autonomy, cyber, space, directed energy, electronic warfare and artificial intelligence.

Force Growth and Platform Modernization

In line with NSS goal to grow the joint force while modernizing and ensuring readiness, PB19 requests an increase of 25,900 military personnel by the end of FY19 and increase of 56,600 by the end of FY23. The end strength for the Department of Defense would be set at 2,155,800 at the end of FY19.

Of note, the Modernization accounts (Procurement plus Research, Development, Test, and Evaluation - RDT&E) request totals $236.7 billion, 13.5% above the initial PB18 request of $208.6 billion. Broken down, Procurement totaled $144.3 billion, which is $3.5 billion below FY18 NDAA and $92.4 billion for RDT&E, a notable $5.0 billion above FY18 NDAA.

With the newly installed Trump administration, many in the Aerospace & Defense sector seemed to wait for greater clarity in de- fense spending before moving on major acquisitions early in 2017. Towards the end of 2017, the market witnessed a significant transaction with Northrop acquiring Orbital ATK for $9.2 billion, gaining key capabilities and contracts in launch & propulsion systems, missiles and armament, aero structures, and space systems. This Northrop/Orbital ATK deal represented a TEV/EBITDA 15.2x multiple, one of the high water marks for the year.

Defense Electronics - Consolidating Smaller Players

In the smaller range deals, the Defense Electronics sector saw further consoli- dation within the mid-cap players, with Curtiss-Wright acquiring Teletronics, a leading developer and manufacturer of data acquisition and flight instrumen- tation systems for defense and aerospace applications, including the F-35 and F-18 aircraft. Other noteworthy defense electronics deal included TTM acquiring Anaren and Teledyne taking e2v off the market. Ultra’s acquisition of Sparton culminated a long-standing JV partner for sonobuoys, a maritime technology gaining more importance with resurgent fears of conflicts at sea, especially in the Asia-Pacific theater of operations. Recently however, Ultra called off the $235.0 million deal, due to concerns the Justice Department would not authorize antitrust clearance, as the deal would have created a consolidated supplier of underwater warfare technologies, such as anti-submarine sonar systems to the U.S. Navy.

19 Aerospace & Defense Outlook | 2018 Annual Report

On the overseas front, international defense companies are seeking greater access to the U.S. market, due to the increasing of the defense budget for the foreseeable future. One deal to highlight this trend is the acquisition by Israeli-based Aeronautics of Chassis Plans, manufacturer of ruggedized computers and LCD displays designed to meet military standards. Capstone Head- waters represented Aeronautics, a leading unmanned aerial vehicle manufacturer (UAV), on this transaction.

C4ISR/Geointelligence – backbone of military and commercial requirements

The acquisition of DigitalGlobe by MDA provides value-added services in the earth imagery market by owning DigitalGlobe’s image analysis capabilities. The move also brings MDA access to the U.S. Government Satellite Imagery market, the largest globally, with a monopoly position on National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency’s EnhancedView contract – an on demand, browser-based GEOINT.

Within our Capstone Headwaters Aerospace, Defense, Government & Security team, we closed several notable deals in the C4ISR/geospatial sector. One key deal was the Solidyn Solutions sale to Polaris Alpha, an Arlington Capital portfolio company. Solidyn is a national security service provider to the space-based defense and intelligence communities, with core business in satellite mission management, command and control systems, virtualization and cloud computing, information assurance, and large-scale data processing systems. In addition, our team represented GPS Source, Inc. (GPSS) in its sale to General Dynamics Mission Systems. GPSS is a leading provider of position, and timing (PNT) technologies for the commercial and military markets. It is a market leader for a full line of GPS GLONASS (GNSS) signal distribution products, GPS retransmission products, and GPS signal design services.

PE – Still Active with Secondary Trades and Sales to Strategics

On the private equity (PE) front, well-known players in the Aerospace & Defense sector continued to invest in critical growth ar- eas. Odyssey Investment Partners acquired CPI from another PE firm, Veritas. CPI manufactures highly engineered component parts used within radio frequency systems, positioning Odyssey on critical DOD radar and communications programs.

On another deal which explored both a sale process and exploration of an IPO, Excelitas’ sale by Veritas to AEA marked AEA’s entry into the photonics sector. Veritas formed Excelitas via the combined acquisitions of PerkinElmer Inc., Kaiser Systems Inc., and Qioptiq.

GOVERNMENT IT SERVICES: 2017 YEAR IN REVIEW The Kettle Is Boiling: Increased Certainty And Market Expansion We devoted a substantial portion of last year’s edition to discussing the political revolution then sweeping into the White House and its potential impact on the We expect the rapid pace of transactions to con- fiscal outlook for discretionary spending and hence tinue through the balance of the year as an im- earnings within the sector. While it may be inappro- “proved outlook for govt IT services drives M&A priate to speak of any “dust settling” 14 months into activity and valuations for well positioned middle this administration, there is significantly more certainty market firms about the arc of discretionary spending prioritization. Industry participants have responded in dramatic fash- ion, closing a record number of M&A deals in 2017 and besting that pace through” the first two months of 2018. A year ago, we took exception to long-term forecasts that projected a relatively flat IT Services market and we continue to hold a more opti- mistic view than the 1.1% compound annual growth rates we see forecasted through 2022. Several factors underscore this view:  Substantial increases in long-term defense IT spending: The National Defense Authorization Act of FY2018 and the Ad- ministration’s FY2019 request allocate $693.0 billion and $716.0 billion, respectively, for the defense department and de- fense activities of the Department of Energy, representing 15.0% and 19.0% increases over the FY2017 budget, constrained as it was by the Budget Control Act. These bills represent the largest year-over-year increases in defense spending since the 2003 invasion of Iraq, and increases for defense IT spending exceed 20.0%. While these amounts are significant, what is perhaps more impactful for the market is the increasing likelihood of a two-year budget deal and the certainty it offers for long-range planners. Our view is that a comprehensive budget deal that trades immigration for border security will arrive shortly. Should this come to pass, acquisition officials can contemplate significant new program starts and legacy program terminations and transitions for the first time in almost a decade.  Executive commitment to IT modernization and transformation: The ability to engage in real strategic planning and pro- grammatic actions is a critical enabler of the administration’s commitment to transform federal IT infrastructure through modernization and to enhance the efficiency of its business practices, as noted in last year’s edition. In 2017, only 21.0% of IT spending was allocated to new development vice the maintenance of legacy systems, down from roughly a third in 2007. The most tangible evidence of the effort to reverse this trend is the inclusion of the Modernizing Government Technology Act in the NDAA and the issuance of the American Technology Council’s IT Modernization Report. While the monies associ- ated with the Act are relatively marginal at $500.0 million, we believe the policy prescriptions are long overdue and provide a pathway for government executives to shift fiscal resources to new, transformational programs (more on this below).   Civilian agencies partially spared: We remarked a year Publicly Traded USG Services Index Valuation ago that in our experience it is more challenging to off- January 2014 – February 2018 set increases in defense investment with reductions in civil 1.4 x 19 x agency accounts than policymakers might have us believe. 1.2 x Our prediction at the time was that Congress would re- 14 x store these cuts in some measure, a reality borne out by 1.0 x EV/EBITDA the latest Congressional budget deal, which restores sig- 0.8 x nificant civil agency spending to the tune of $120.0 billion, 9 x 0.6 x while preserving increases in defense and national security budgets. 0.4 x 4 x EV/Revenue

 Swelling cash reserves chasing deals: Finally, the Tax Cut 2014 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 and Jobs Act of 2017, combined with persistently accom- modative corporate debt markets, means that market Mean EV/Revenue Mean EV/E BI TDA participants will be afforded even more excess cash over Source: Capital IQ the next several quarters. This is good news for the M&A market as strategic acquirers at the top of the food chain look to aggressively deploy capital to gain access to next-generation IT modernization capabilities, coveted high growth customers, and strategic contract vehicles.

These optimistic market drivers have finally been matched by a series of positive earnings reports turned in by public pure play government IT services firms, fueling a sustained expansion of equity values as of the drafting of this report, with virtually the entire index trading at more than twelve times trailing EBITDA and SAIC and MANT at more than 13x. In addition, this past month witnessed the filing of the first IPO in the sector in over two years, Prospecta (the combination of DXC’s public sector business and Veritas Capital portfolio companies Vencore and Keypoint), a significant vote of confidence from the investment community. 21 Aerospace & Defense Outlook | 2018 Annual Report

Transformational M&A: An Elongated Tail and We’re Not Done Yet

Since this section of the report’s inaugural edition in 2014, we have been tracking a remarkable period of consolidation amongst the largest contractors that shape the Government IT sector. In 2017 it looked as if this process was coming to a completion phase, as we awaited a few large transactions to round out the process. Uncertainty, however, is the surest way to slow deal making and assessing the impact of the 2016 national elections took some time, during which large scale transactions ceased after the acquisition of Harris’ IT business (renamed Peraton) by Veritas Capital in early 2017.

Now that the business and fiscal landscape has taken shape in a form laced with positive characteristics, the backlog of trans- formational deals has proceeded, with an estimated $17.0 billion in deals already announced as of the end of February 2018 (taking into account a conservative approximation of value for the Prospecta IPO, which features $4.3 billion in topline revenue).

Next Generation IT Modernization: A Closer Look

Last year at this time, we postulated that the lan- guage coming out of the new administration held the potential for accelerating the adoption of best practices for government business with specific takeaways for IT and service support contractors. Since then, the combination of increased compe- tition and accountability, a commitment to IT and process modernization at the infrastructure level, and budget clarity, appears to be transforming the landscape in meaningful ways. As noted above, we see the passage of the IT Modernization Act is a sig- nificant event for the industry and the accompany- ing IT Modernization Report contains useful guide- posts.

While real impact is necessarily at the programmatic level, a shift toward new development vice the maintenance of legacy systems can be anticipated, increasing uncertainty for established players and creating opportunities for well positioned firms with investments in next generation technologies. Indeed, the report calls on agencies to “emphasize reprioritizing funds and consider ‘cut and invest’ strategies that reallocate funding from obsolete legacy IT systems to modern technologies, cloud solu- tions and shared services, using agile development practices.”

The report laments “an unwieldy and out-of-date federal IT infrastructure incapable of operating with the agility and security that is required of a multibillion dollar federal IT enterprise” and prescribes the “maximum use of shared services and commer- cial capabilities” to “rapidly and iteratively eliminate barriers to cloud adoption….that can deliver improved functionality and drive cost efficiencies to improve government operations.” Security is natuarlly an essential component of the strategy, par- ticularly as it relates to cloud computing, where the report calls for agencies to “update relevant network security policies and architectures” to “focus on both network and data-level security and privacy, while ensuring incident detection and prevention capabilities are modernized to address the latest threats.”

The priorities identified here are not surprisingly those that feature prominently in the middle market M&A transactions we observed (and closed) over the past year and continue in our active banking projects today: cyber security, cloud computing and migration, and mission-focused national security domains.

23 Aerospace & Defense Outlook | 2018 Annual Report

For the first three years we compiled this section of the report, US Government IT Services M&A Transactions middle market M&A activity was consistently focused on five by Subsector 2017-2018 targeted capability areas that offer access to high growth mar- ket subsectors or are difficult to build internally, or in many Cyber cases, both. In reviewing the activity of 2017, however, we IT/Services 19% note a marked shift toward larger transactions that feature 45% more diversified IT and service organizations. Therefore, while niche deals in cyber security, cloud computing, and intelligence Cloud were certainly targeted, each gave way as a percentage of total Computing deals to more diversified service providers. A notable excep- 13% tion to this trend was the C4ISR space, increasingly in favor in response to mission critical DoD investments, which more than doubled its share of total transactions to 11.0%. As predicted in these pages last year, M&A featuring healthcare IT, once a Intelligence darling of the sector (accounting for 9.0% of all 2016 transac- Healthcare IT C4ISR 11% tions), ground to a halt, reflecting the dramatic nature of shift- 1% 11% ing budget priorities.

The shift in acquisitions toward more diversified IT and services firms is a tangible reflection of the industry’s increasing con- fidence in the overall direction of the marketplace fueled by an emerging fiscal reality defined by larger discretionary outlays, long-term budgetary planning, and new programmatic opportunities. It should be noted here, however, that a multitude of diversified IT and services targets do participate to a degree (some to a significant degree) in the following high growth sub- sectors:

 Cyber security and operations: Once again, cyber security and cyber operations are at the top of seemingly every policy- maker’s priority list. The administration’s official FY2019 budget requests $15.0 billion for cyber security, a 15.0% increase from FY2017 levels. If classified cyber programs are included, however, estimates are for an increase of more than 30.0% from FY2017 levels, making this segment far and away the fastest growing within the Government IT market. Niche cyber transactions accounted for nearly 20.0% of all transactions closed over the past 14 months, and were a meaningful compo- nent of several more diversified firms acquired.

 Cloud computing and data analytics: The migration of federal solutions to cloud platforms has been gaining speed ever since the Obama administration worked with Amazon to establish GovCloud. Key barriers to resistance center on security. As protocols are implemented to satisfy these concerns, however, Microsoft is rolling out a tailored Microsoft Azure Stack/ Government offering as a competitive offering. While federal spending on cloud computing is forecast to grow at a com- pound annual growth rate of 16.0% to more than $10.0 billion by 2023, we believe near-term growth may outpace this rate given the priority placed on adoption by executive directives. Pure play cloud computing and attendant data analytics firms represented 13.0% of deal volume. As with cyber security, many diversified IT firms are also leveraging their knowledge of customer’s business rules and operations on cloud migration and managed services projects.

 Intelligence operations and support: Historically one of the most resilient segments of the discretionary budget, spending for Intelligence Community (IC) agencies has received a significant boost as a result of the administration’s planning, to $81.0 billion from $73.0 billion in FY2017, or a two year increase of 11.0%. As previously discussed, companies in this sector are differentiated by security clearances, unique technologies, high customer fidelity and a prevalence of prime contract vehicles, even for smaller firms. Intelligence firms comprised 11.0% of transactions closed.

 C4ISR: Last year, we predicted renewed emphasis on transactions featuring C4ISR capabilities as a result of commitments to speed critical enabling technologies to the warfighter. In this subsector, an increase in drone operations, investment in intelligence gathering platforms, and the national priority placed on missile defense are driving interest. Firms in this sec- tor are providing software, engineering, and training services that allow advanced technologies to impact mission success. C4ISR deals accounted for 11.0% of deals closed, more than twice the portion in 2016.

24 Aerospace & Defense Outlook | 2018 Annual Report

When we analyze completed deals by buyer type, a shift among the population is noteworthy. The year 2017 witnessed US Government IT Services M&A Transactions the entrance of a large number of non-traditional acquirers: By Buyer Type, January 2016 – February 2018 diversified technology and service companies with a private sector focus, and a greater number of financial buyers. Di- PE-Backed 12% versified buyers comprised 20.0% of all deals completed, or roughly twice the portion of a year ago, and financial buyers Strategic were 23.0% of completed deals, up from 13.0% a year ago. 45% Notable among the diversified industry buyers were deals by On Assignment (ECS Federal), Jacobs Engineering (Blue Cano- Diversified py), Tetra Tech (Bridgenet), and KBR (Stinger Ghaffarian). Sec- 20% tor specialist private equity was quite active (Veritas Capital, Arlington Capital, DC Capital, AE Industrial Partners, Enlighten- ment Capital) and was joined by generalist firms stepping back into the space (HIG Capital, Hammond Kennedy Whitney).

A value for more diversified businesses strong M&A backlog promoted a high level of activi- ty in Q1 2017 and the pace of dealmaking continued throughout the year, yielding a record year for transac- ” tions. Now, as the fiscal picture has brightened considerably and the industry contemplates a two-year budget to plan around, the pace of M&A transactions has only increased.

Valuations of publicly traded firms in the space are now approaching a 10-year high. Excess cash will be buoyed further by corporate tax cuts, increasing pressure on executives to deploy capital. Rather than buying back stock that is already fully priced or increasing dividends, we anticipate aggressive M&A programs will target the few remaining large scale government IT firms at the sub $2.0 billion revenue level (and possibly some larger) and fast growing middle market firms that offer superior positioning on strategic contract vehicles and capabilities in the areas of cyber security, cloud computing, data analytics, and the coveted mission areas intelligence and C4ISR. While the cuts to civil agencies may not be as draconian as once feared, this segment will display relative weakness to the defense sector due to budget prioritization.

As we look toward the balance of 2018 and beyond, the elements are in place for a period of sustained strength in the Federal IT M&A market. Middle mar- ket deals are generating competitive interest yielding premium valuations on a consistent basis, and from a variety of quarters. Further and deeper involvement of non-traditional buyers and investors only serves to stretch the valuation curve further. Our own ex- perience in the marketplace, with completed deals last year and active projects this year, bears this out as competitive intensity has driven industry-lead- ing valuations, exceeding client expectations. Given these dynamics, we would not be surprised if 2018 was another record year for deal volume and one of the best for valuation in recent memory.

Cyber stocks generally outperformed the broader market by a few points, owed to strong growth from Palo Alto Networks (NASDAQ:PANW) and Check Point Software (NASDAQ:CHKP). In 2017, significant initial public offerings (IPOs) from cyber security companies included:  Okta IPO, which debuted in March at $38.07 per share but fell to $32.71 per share by the end of the year; A maturing of the industry points to an ongoing  ForeScout IPO, which priced at $22.0 per share in October and jumped to $31.89 per share by the consolidation as suppliers broaden their customer end of the year; “offerings and the need to outsource continues  SailPoint IPO, which initially priced at $13.0 per share in November increasing to $14.50 per share ” by the end of the year.

2018 Outlook

Looking ahead, emerging trends include:

 Growth in the Internet of Things to more than 20.0 billion connected devices by 2020, leading to significant venture capital investment and M&A transaction activity;

 Increased compliance activity including the European Union’s (EU) passing of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDRP) will force further spending increases on cyber security. GDRP is a broad measure aimed at every business with a web presence or marketing campaign in the EU. This will impact U.S. based companies across many industries, requiring data breach notifications within 72 hours. Note that the EU is not alone in stepping up regulatory requirements as existing cyber regulations significantly beefed up in 2017 in the United States, as well. The increasing compliance requirements globally should be a boon in business for large consulting firms and drive consolidation activity in the services sector.

 Rationalization of the total number of cyber secu- rity firms from the current total of approximately 1,440 unique cyber security companies across 35 countries currently. A reduction in the total num- ber of vendors would help purchasers of security products and services in their decision making process and allow vendors to have economies of scale.

 Increased outsourcing to MSSPs to enable the shift from capital expenditures to operating ex- penditures while maintaining or improving the quality of network and data security.

Cyber security remains critical to allowing global eco- nomic growth in the years ahead. The critical and uni- versal need for this protection is driving growth rates for a market that is already enormous. Investors and deal makers view this as a fruitful area ripe for high returns on investments.

MILITARY AND COMMERCIAL SIMULATION AND TRAINING Simulation & Training has seen significant activity bringing improved technology capabilities and cost advantages to both commercial and military markets. Large strategic and private equity players have made acquisitions in commercial flight simula- tion to access a sizeable market and target pilot shortages, while strong growth has been seen in military adoption as improved reality and gaming technologies have met greater training needs and increased availability.

From an M&A perspective, the most notable recent ac- tivity again involved United Technologies’ announced $30.0 billion acquisition of Rockwell Collins, a major We expect continued activity as improved reali- Simulation & Training (S&T) player that has multiple ty technology and cost effectiveness satisfy flight business units. While such broad-based blockbuster “training needs of commercial pilot shortages, and transactions are difficult to predict from solely an S&T create new training methods for the military vantage point, look for sector M&A activity to continue. Transactional activity involving service providers to the ” military will likely favor situations relating to innovative uses of simulation and training technology that either enhance product fidelity, integrate different training activities or facilitate and control access to training content. From a commercial perspective, we expect acquisition demand to continue for S&T businesses that help address the looming pilot shortage as well as those that support the up-cycle in orders and production of new aircraft that is occurring throughout the globe.

Military training activities have evolved over the past decade and notably the use of virtual training products and services has increased. This in-part reflects the on-going need to help troops be battle-ready or perform other defense-related functions regardless of the availability of funding. It also reflects the recognition that high fidelity S&T is not just cost-efficient but is valuable and can be tactically used along with other training media. Overall, increases in spending levels outlined in the FY19 U.S. Defense Budget will benefit this sector over the near term, but the prior funding disciplines imposed on the DoD no doubt have impacted how mission critical needs for the military are presently support- ed by S&T and particularly how technology will be leveraged to support them.

The importance of S&T activities is recognized by the highest levels of the mili- tary. In fact, in a recent speech by Former National Security Advisor and retired three-star general H.R. McMaster at the U.S. Naval Academy, he addressed the importance of training to help warriors overcome the debilitating effects of fear in combat. Such needs are on-going for every generation of warriors and must be addressed through S&T methodologies. McMaster generally noted that con- fident, cohesive teams are built through tough, realistic training and specifically noted, “Confidence and cohesion serve as psychological protection and bul- warks against combat stress and fear in battle. Much of the stress that soldiers experience in combat stems from uncertainty and doubt. Training must, there- fore, replicate the conditions of combat as closely as possible.”

While such needs do not change since sequestration, the ability of the military to replicate the conditions of combat has been impacted, both negatively and positively, by cuts to the defense budget as well as by technology advances. While the cost-prohibitive and riskier nature of live military training has limited its availability, the increased fidelity offered by virtual training products today and their enhanced ability to ‘suspend disbelief’ are offering economically vi- able and attractive training alternatives that have grown in use. Virtual S&T programs provide immersive environments and experiences for soldiers that can be PC-based or involve the use of simulators and enable routine training. This type of training cannot completely replace live exercises but it offers valuable replicability and does substantially reduce the need for training that puts human lives at risk.

The T&S market is now trending towards mixed reality training involving not just live, virtual, and constructive simulation but also the use of gaming technology.

30 Aerospace & Defense Outlook | 2018 Annual Report

Technology continues to improve the functions of classroom instruction and is complemented with growing use of instructional software, access to higher fidelity weapons engagement simulators, improved force on force training products and integrated joint exercises. Computer-based training systems now regularly include e-learning and live streaming and there are even stored military training options, which include serious war games and war apps. These solutions also are offering increased ability not just for greater immersion, but for performance-based measurement and individualized instruction too with intent to improve overall training effectiveness. The virtual simulations also help perfect activities subsequently performed at Combat Training Centers and aid success in activities such as major mission rehearsal exercises.

Given the natural linkages between the manufacture of military equipment and the need for training to use it, the large players in the T&S market include major defense contractors serving air, land and naval needs, but particularly those serving aviation-related markets. Major players include Boeing, Lockheed Martin, General Dynamics, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon, L-3, Textron, and Rockwell Collins. The market also includes more training-focused niche players such as CAE and Cubic and technology-focused players like Bohemia Interactive, a portfolio holding of The Riverside Company, that supports military sim- ulations using video game technology. In addition to The Riverside Company, companies that have been active acquirers of military S&T operations include Dos Rios Capital, Cubic, Havelsan, Rockwell Collins, Esterline, and Textron.

On the commercial end of the market, both private equity and large corporate players have recently been active acquirers of S&T businesses, most often to target the opportunity to address pilot shortages. Notably, Airbus just announced the acqui- sition of Strategic Simulation Solutions and both L-3 and CAE have completed sector acquisitions within the past 24 months. Private equity players currently with flight training investments include Sterling Partners, J.F. Lehman and Renovus Capital.

According to conventional estimates, the global military S&T market in the U.S. is estimated at $11.0 to $14.0 billion and is estimated to grow annually in the 3.0-4.0% range. Demand remains strongest in the U.S., dominated by flight simulator prod- ucts. However, the use of virtual and gaming-based simulation is expected to increase in demand at much greater rates than the overall market (i.e. 70.0% growth over the next decade) due to increased adoption with growth in demand for more tradi- tional simulation equipment tied closely to equipment modernization and upgrades. PEO STRI, the U.S. Army’s acquisition and contracting center of excellence for Simulation, Training and Testing solutions identifies training technology as a key readiness enable of the armed forces. Its announced present intension is to be focused on maintenance of Army training devices (TADSS) and to create Synthetic Training Environments (STE) that enable commanders to train the way one fights no matter where train- ees are located. It also announced its intent to establish a training and readiness accelerator to gain quicker access to leading edge technologies that can enhance mission effectiveness for soldiers.

While interest will continue to be focused on strategic high growth niches, we expect competitive processes will leverage a broader population of buyers to drive value for more diversified businesses as well.

Continued rapid growth in cyber security is be expected, as threats increase, more devices become connected, and compliance requirements strengthen. In response, from an M&A perspective, a maturing of the industry points to an ongoing consolidation as suppliers broaden their customer offerings and the need to outsource continues.

Within Simulation & Training, we expect continued activity as improved reality technology and cost effectiveness satisfy flight training needs of commercial pilot shortages and create new training methods for the military.
