Item 1.01    Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Amendment to Credit Agreement

On June 11, 2018, Kratos Defense & Security Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into the first amendment (the “First Amendment”) to its existing Amended and Restated Credit and Security Agreement, dated as of November 20, 2017, with SunTrust Bank, a Georgia banking corporation, as administrative agent, and certain other lenders party thereto (the “Credit Agreement”). Among other things, the First Amendment permits the consummation of the Transaction (as defined below), provided that certain conditions, including application of the proceeds in accordance with the terms of documents governing the Company’s outstanding indebtedness, are satisfied.

The foregoing description of the First Amendment does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the First Amendment, a copy of which is furnished as Exhibit 10.1 hereto.


Item 2.01    Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
 
On June 11, 2018, the Company completed the previously announced sale of all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Kratos Public Safety & Security Solutions, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“PSS”), to Securitas Electronic Security, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Buyer”), pursuant to the terms of that certain Stock Purchase Agreement, dated February 28, 2018, by and among the Company, PSS and Buyer, for a purchase price of $69 million in cash, subject to a working capital adjustment (the “Transaction”). The Company expects to receive approximately $70 million of net cash proceeds from the Transaction, after taking into account amounts to be paid by the Company pursuant to a negotiated transition services agreement between the Company and Buyer, receipt by the Company of approximately $7 million in net working capital to be retained by the Company, and associated transaction fees and expenses.

The Company's use of proceeds from the Transaction will be controlled by the Indenture dated, November 17, 2017 (the “Indenture”), among the Company, certain of the Company’s subsidiaries as guarantors, and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee and collateral agent, which Indenture governs the Company’s 6.5% Senior Secured Notes (the “Notes”). The terms of the Indenture require that the net cash proceeds from asset dispositions (within 365 days from the date of the sale) be either utilized to (i) repay or prepay amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement unless such amounts are reinvested in similar collateral, (ii) permanently reduce other secured indebtedness and equally and ratably reduce obligations under the Notes through open market purchases of Notes at or above par, (iii) make an investment in assets that replace the collateral for the Notes or (iv) a combination of (i), (ii) and (iii). To the extent there are any remaining net proceeds from the asset disposition after application of (i), (ii) and (iii), such amounts are required to be utilized to repurchase the Notes at par.

The Company intends to utilize the net proceeds from the Transaction to fund growth initiatives by making investments in similar collateral in accordance with the terms of the Indenture.




Item 8.01    Other Events

On June 11, 2018, the Company issued a press release announcing the closing of the Transaction. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

KRATOS DEFENSE & SECURITY SOLUTIONS, INC.
NOTES TO THE PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)

Description of the Transaction and Basis of Presentation

The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations are based upon the historical consolidated financial statements of the Company, which were included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, filed with the SEC on February 28, 2018. Pursuant to SEC rules and regulations, the unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations include only the portion of the historical statements of operations and comprehensive income through income (loss) from continuing operations and exclude discontinued operations. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statement of operations for each respective fiscal period reflects the completion of the sale of all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of PSS as if it had occurred on the first day of the respective fiscal year.

Pro Forma Adjustments

(a) Deconsolidation of PSS for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2017, December 25, 2016 and December 27, 2015, respectively, to reflect as discontinued operations.

(b) Income tax expense or benefit for continuing and discontinued operations for the fiscal year ended December 25, 2016 was computed under the “with-and-without” approach.  Under the “with-and-without” approach the income tax expense or benefit for continuing operations was determined by excluding the tax effects of pre-tax items recorded in discontinued operations.  For fiscal years ended December 31, 2017 and December 27, 2015, an exception to the “with-and-without” approach applied and the income tax benefit for continuing operations was increased by the income tax expense recorded in discontinued operations.  
 
(c) Adjustment to service revenues and cost of service revenues reflects sales activity between the Company and PSS that was previously eliminated upon consolidation but as a result of the disposition has been reflected as product sales and cost of product sales to outside customers.

(d) Restructuring costs of PSS have been allocated to discontinued operations.
