Acquisition Acquisitions
Infrastar Limited

On May 17, 2025, we acquired Infrastar Limited for $35 million, which consisted of $15 million of cash and contingent consideration with an estimated fair value of $20 million that is contingent upon the achievement of certain performance targets through May 2027. The contingent consideration could result in cash payments aggregating up to approximately $24 million. Within our MTS segment, as of January 2, 2026, we recognized $2 million of cash, $11 million of intangible assets related to customer relationships and goodwill of $24 million primarily related to future growth opportunities. As of January 2, 2026, the estimated fair values of net assets acquired were preliminary. We recorded a measurement period adjustment to the preliminary fair values initially recorded on May 17, 2025 and reported within KBR's quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended July 4, 2025. The measurement period adjustment was a decrease to cash of $2 million and an increase to goodwill of $2 million. For U.S. tax purposes, the transaction is treated as a stock deal. As a result, there is no step-up in tax basis and the goodwill recognized is not deductible for tax purposes.

LinQuest Corporation
On August 30, 2024, we acquired LinQuest for $739 million in cash net of cash acquired, subject to certain working capital, net debt and other post-closing adjustments. The purchase price allocation for the LinQuest business combination is final as of January 2, 2026. During the year ended January 2, 2026, we recorded a measurement period adjustment to the preliminary fair values reported within our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 3, 2025. The measurement period adjustment was a decrease to deferred income taxes liability of $10 million and a decrease to goodwill of $10 million. We recognized goodwill within our MTS segment of $516 million primarily related to future growth opportunities, a highly skilled assembled workforce and other expected synergies from the combined operations. Intangible assets of $200 million were recognized and comprised of customer relationships and contract backlog, which will be amortized over a weighted-average period of 14 years. For U.S. tax purposes, the transaction is treated as a stock deal. As a result, there is no step-up in tax basis and the goodwill recognized is not deductible for tax purposes.
