NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2016

(1) Nature of Business and Basis of Presentation

Our accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and the instructions to SEC Form 10-Q and Article 10 of SEC Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In our opinion, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2016. For further information refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in our 2015 Form 10-K.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates affecting the financial statements include accruals for contract disallowance reserves, recoverability of goodwill and intangible assets, and earn-out obligations.

Stock Split Effected in Form of Stock Dividend

In May 2016, our Board of Directors approved a two-for-one stock split effected in the form of a stock dividend ("Stock Split"). The Stock Split had a record date of July 20, 2016 and stock distribution occurred on August 3, 2016. All references made to share or per share amounts in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements and applicable disclosures have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the Stock Split.

Reclassifications

Effective January 1, 2016, we elected to present amortization of purchased intangible assets as a separate line item and change the line item "Contract costs" to "Costs and operating expenses" on our consolidated statements of income. For consistency, these amortization expenses have been reclassified in the consolidated statements of income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 to conform to the current period presentation. As a result, amortization expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2015 previously reflected as contract costs of $3.7 million in "Products" and $375 thousand in "Services" were reclassified to the "Amortization of intangible assets" line item within cost and operating expenses. Amortization expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 previously reflected as contract costs of $10.5 million in "Products" and $1.3 million in "Services" were reclassified to the "Amortization of intangible assets" line item within cost and operating expenses.

We adopted Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2015-17 and ASU 2015-03 on January 1, 2016 and prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. See Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements in Note 10 for additional information.

These reclassifications have no effect on our reported financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

(2) Acquisitions

Ultra Seating

On December 31, 2015, we acquired 100% of the voting and equity interests of Ultra Seating Company ("Ultra Seating") for a purchase price of approximately $3.6 million, which represents cash consideration of $3.8 million adjusted for settlement of pre-existing liabilities and a final working capital adjustment. Ultra Seating provides specialized seating for heavy duty and light duty commercial trucks. Ultra Seating is included in our Supply Chain Management Group. We are in the process of finalizing our valuation of the assets acquired (including intangible assets) and liabilities assumed, including the amortization period for the intangible assets. During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, we recorded immaterial purchase accounting adjustments based on changes to management’s estimates and assumptions in regards to acquired intangible assets and assumed liabilities. Based on preliminary estimates, we recorded approximately $2.0 million of goodwill and approximately $1.5 million of intangible assets primarily related to customer relationships and a trade name. We will complete the purchase price allocation for this acquisition by December 31, 2016.

VSE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2016

The pro forma effects, assuming our acquisition of Ultra Seating had occurred as of January 1, 2015, were not material to our total revenues, net income or earnings per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015.

VSE Aviation

On January 28, 2015, we acquired 100% of the voting and equity interests of four related businesses that perform maintenance, repair and overhaul ("MRO") services and parts supply for general aviation jet aircraft engines and engine accessories. The acquired businesses include Air Parts & Supply Co., Kansas Aviation of Independence, L.L.C., Prime Turbines LLC (including both U.S. and German-based operations), and CT Aerospace LLC (collectively, "the Aviation Acquisition"). These four businesses are operating as a combined group managed by our wholly owned subsidiary VSE Aviation, Inc. ("VAI").

The pro forma effects assuming the Aviation Acquisition had occurred as of January 1, 2015 were not significant to our total revenues, net income or earnings per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2015.

In July 2016, we reached an agreement with the sellers of the four aviation businesses for an early termination and final payment of VSE's post-closing earn-out obligation contained in the Aviation Acquisition agreement. Approximately $8.0 million was paid to the sellers in May 2016 and the final earn-out payment of approximately $10.5 million was paid to the sellers in July 2016.

(3) Debt

We have a loan agreement with a group of banks that was amended in January 2015 to fund our Aviation Acquisition, provide working capital for our continuing operations, and retire our existing debt. The loan agreement, which expires in January 2020, is comprised of a term loan facility and a revolving loan facility. The revolving loan facility provides for revolving loans and letters of credit. Financing costs associated with the inception of the amended loan agreement of approximately $2.7 million were capitalized and are being amortized over the five-year life of the loan.

Our required term loan payments after September 30, 2016 are approximately $4.7 million in 2016, $21.6 million in 2017, $28.1 million in 2018, $30 million in 2019, and $36.2 million in 2020. The amount of term loan borrowings outstanding as of September 30, 2016 was approximately $120.6 million.

The maximum amount of credit available to us under the loan agreement for revolving loans and letters of credit as of September 30, 2016 was $150 million. We may borrow and repay the revolving loan borrowings as our cash flows require or permit. We pay an unused commitment fee and fees on letters of credit that are issued. We had approximately $112.6 million in revolving loan amounts outstanding and $11 thousand in letters of credit outstanding as of September 30, 2016. We had approximately $101 million in revolving loan amounts outstanding and no letters of credit outstanding as of December 31, 2015.

Under the loan agreement we may elect to increase the maximum availability of the term loan facility, the revolving loan facility, or both facilities up to an aggregate additional amount of $75 million.

Total bank loan borrowed funds outstanding, including term loan borrowings and revolving loan borrowings, were approximately $233 million and $235 million, as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. These amounts exclude unamortized deferred financing costs of approximately $1.8 million and $2.2 million as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. The fair value of outstanding debt as of September 30, 2016 under our bank loan facilities approximates its carrying value using Level 2 inputs based on market data on companies with a corporate rating similar to ours that have recently priced credit facilities.

We pay interest on the term loan borrowings and revolving loan borrowings at LIBOR plus a base margin or at a base rate (typically the prime rate) plus a base margin. As of September 30, 2016, the LIBOR base margin was 2.25% and the base rate base margin was 1.00%. The base margins increase or decrease in increments as our Total Funded Debt/EBITDA Ratio increases or decreases.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2016

The loan agreement requires us to have interest rate hedges on a portion of the outstanding term loan for the first three years of the agreement. We executed interest rate swap agreements in February 2015 that complied with the agreement. The amount of swapped debt outstanding as of September 30, 2016 was $100 million. After taking into account the impact of interest rate swap agreements, as of September 30, 2016, interest rates on portions of our outstanding debt ranged from 2.77% to 4.50%, and the effective interest rate on our aggregate outstanding debt was 3.18%.

Interest expense incurred on bank loan borrowings and interest rate hedges was approximately $2 million and $1.9 million for quarters ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Interest expense incurred on bank loan borrowings and interest rate hedges was approximately $5.8 million and $5.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively.

The loan agreement contains collateral requirements to secure our borrowings and other loan agreement obligations, restrictive covenants, a limit on annual dividends, and other affirmative and negative covenants, conditions, and limitations. Restrictive covenants include a maximum Total Funded Debt/EBITDA Ratio, which decreases over time, and a minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. We were in compliance with required ratios and other terms and conditions at September 30, 2016.

(4) Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share ("EPS") has been computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. Shares issued during the period are weighted for the portion of the period that they were outstanding. Our calculation of diluted earnings per common share includes the dilutive effects for an assumed vesting of restricted stock awards.

(5) Commitments and Contingencies

Contingencies

We are one of the defendants in a multiple plaintiff wrongful death action in Hawaii related to a fireworks explosion that occurred in April 2011 at a facility operated by a subcontractor, that resulted in the death of five of its employees. The litigation is expected to proceed to trial in 2017. While the results of litigation cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not anticipate that this litigation will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial position.

In March 2013, a lawsuit, Anchorage v. Integrated Concepts and Research Corporation, et al., was filed in the Superior Court for the State of Alaska at Anchorage by the Municipality of Anchorage, Alaska against our wholly owned subsidiary Integrated Concepts and Research Corporation ("ICRC") and two former subcontractors of ICRC (the "Anchorage Lawsuit"). With respect to ICRC, the plaintiff asserts, among other things, breach of contract, professional negligence and negligence in respect of work and services ICRC rendered under the Port of Anchorage Intermodal Expansion Contract with the U.S. Maritime Administration. ICRC did not have a contract with the Municipality of Anchorage. In April 2013, ICRC removed the case to the United States District Court for the District of Alaska. ICRC's contract with the Maritime Administration expired on May 31, 2012. This litigation is expected to proceed to trial in 2017. Currently, we cannot predict whether the Anchorage Lawsuit will have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations.

On or about August 21, 2015, a lawsuit, The Charter Oak Fire Insurance Company, The Travelers Indemnity Company of Connecticut and Travelers Property Casualty Company of America v. Integrated Concepts and Research Corporation, VSE Corporation and Municipality of Anchorage, was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Alaska. The plaintiff insurance companies are seeking, among other things, (a) a declaration by the court that under the insurance policies issued by the plaintiffs there is no

defense or indemnity coverage available to ICRC and VSE for the Anchorage Lawsuit and (b) reimbursement of defense fees and costs incurred by the plaintiffs in the defense of uncovered claims in respect of the Anchorage Lawsuit.

On or about February 27, 2015, a lawsuit, Heritage Disposal and Storage v. VSE Corporation, was filed against VSE in the United States District Court for the District of Nebraska (the "Heritage Litigation"). On November 9, 2015, the Heritage Litigation was transferred to the Eastern District of Virginia. The complaint asserts, among other things, that VSE breached a contract with Heritage for firework storage and manipulation services rendered by Heritage and that VSE has not fully paid Heritage for such services rendered during the period of October 2010 through August 2015. The services relate to VSE's prime contract with the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives regarding the storage of fireworks seized by the Government. Following a ruling by the Court that VSE had not breached a contract with Heritage because VSE and Heritage had not agreed on a contract, the Court instructed the jury to determine if Heritage was entitled to recover under its equitable claims of quantum meruit and unjust enrichment. On June 30, 2016, the jury determined that Heritage was entitled to recover on its equitable claims and awarded damages of approximately $4.8 million, exclusive of interest to be determined by the Court. The Court has not issued a final decision on the matter and has requested that briefs be filed by the parties on a number of substantive issues that may affect the Court's final decision. The Court is expected to rule on these substantive issues and other matters in the near future, including whether the jury verdict was binding or advisory, and issue a final judgment. Depending on the Court's final decision, we intend to consider numerous legal options, including filing a motion for a new trial or appealing one or more of the Court's rulings.

During the course of defending the Heritage Litigation and shortly before trial, VSE obtained evidence that invoices provided by Heritage under our predecessor contract with the U.S. Department of Treasury (the "Treasury Department"), which were then charged to the Government, were based on Heritage's improper inflation of the weight of certain seized fireworks stored by Heritage. We filed a voluntary disclosure of this matter with the Inspector General of the Treasury Department on June 17, 2016. We estimate that the overbilling of the Government based on Heritage's improper inflation of the weight of seized fireworks stored by Heritage may be approximately $1.5 million. We are cooperating with the Government and are continuing to investigate the matter, which may affect the final disposition of the Heritage Litigation. This investigation and the Heritage Litigation may affect VSE's claim before the U.S. Civilian Board of Contract Appeals ("CBCA") seeking additional funds from the Government related to Heritage's fireworks seizure services. In that matter, following a joint request by VSE and the Government, the CBCA has suspended VSE's claim against the Government and the CBCA is expected to request a status update from VSE and the Government on the possible overcharging issues related to Heritage.

Regardless of the outcome of our voluntary disclosure to the Inspector General of the Treasury Department and our claim against the Government that is under the CBCA's jurisdiction, we believe it is probable that VSE will sustain a loss from the resolution of the Heritage Litigation. While there are a number of pending issues regarding the final disposition of the Heritage Litigation, we currently estimate the probable range of VSE's loss will be between $1.2 million and $5.5 million. The lower end of the range of loss is based on obtaining a favorable ruling by the Court on VSE's 2013 settlement agreement with Heritage, which would significantly reduce the amount of underpaid storage fees payable by VSE to Heritage, and the upper end of the range is based on potential unfavorable rulings on the matters pending before the Court, including the imposition of interest. Because we do not currently have sufficient information to determine if any amount in that range is a better estimate than any other amount because of the ongoing nature of this litigation, we accrued the reserve at the low end of the range of $1.2 million, which was recorded in "Selling, general and administrative expenses" within "Costs and operating expenses" in the unaudited consolidated statements of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2016.

In addition to the above-referenced legal proceedings, we have, in the normal course of business, certain claims against us and against other parties and we may be subject to various governmental investigations. In our opinion, the resolution of these other claims and investigations will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position or results of operations. However, the results of any legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, therefore, the amount of loss, if any, cannot be reasonably estimated.

(8) Fair Value Measurements

The accounting standard for fair value measurements defines fair value, and establishes a market-based framework or hierarchy for measuring fair value. The standard is applicable whenever assets and liabilities are measured at fair value.

The fair value hierarchy established in the standard prioritizes the inputs used in valuation techniques into three levels as follows:

Level 1–Observable inputs–quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities;

Level 2–Observable inputs-other than the quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities–includes quoted prices for similar instruments, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in inactive markets and amounts derived from valuation models where all significant inputs are observable in active markets; and

Level 3–Unobservable inputs–includes amounts derived from valuation models where one or more significant inputs are unobservable and require us to develop relevant assumptions.

The following table summarizes the financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 and the level they fall within the fair value hierarchy (in thousands):



Amounts Recorded at Fair Value	Financial Statement Classification	Fair Value Hierarchy	Fair Value September 30, 2016		Fair Value December 31, 2015
Non-COLI assets held in Deferred Supplemental Compensation Plan	Other assets	Level 1	$	292	$	264
Interest rate swaps	Accrued expenses	Level 2	$	503	$	123
Earn-out obligation-current	Current portion of earn-out obligation	Level 3	$	—	$	9,678
Earn-out obligation-long-term	Earn-out obligation	Level 3	—		$	10,166

Changes in the fair value of the Non-COLI assets held in the deferred supplemental compensation plan, as well as changes in the related deferred compensation obligation, are recorded as selling, general and administrative expenses.

We account for our interest rate swap agreements under the provisions of ASC 815, and have determined that our swap agreements qualify as highly effective cash flow hedges. Accordingly, the fair value of the swap agreements, which is a liability of approximately $503 thousand and $123 thousand at September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, has been classified in accrued

expenses. The offset, net of an income tax effect of approximately $194 thousand and $48 thousand, is included in accumulated other comprehensive loss as of September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. The amounts paid and received on the swap agreements are recorded in interest expense in the period during which the related floating-rate interest is incurred. We determine the fair value of the swap agreements based on a valuation model using primarily observable market data inputs.

We utilized a probability-weighted discounted cash flow method to determine the fair value of our Aviation Acquisition post-closing earn-out obligation at December 31, 2015. Probabilities were applied to each potential pay-out scenario and the resulting values were discounted using a rate that considered our weighted average cost of capital, as well as a specific risk premium associated with the riskiness of the earn out itself, the related projections, and the overall business. Significant unobservable inputs used to value the contingent consideration included projected earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and the discount rate. In July 2016, we reach an agreement with the sellers for an early termination and final payment of our post-closing earn-out obligation. The final earn-out payment of $10.5 million was made in July 2016 (see Note 2, Acquisitions, for a discussion of the termination of our Aviation Acquisition earn-out obligation).

During the nine months ended September 30, 2016, the fair value of the earn-out obligation related to the Aviation Acquisition decreased approximately $1.3 million, which was recorded within "Cost and operating expenses."

The following table provides a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balance of the earn-out obligation measured at fair value on a recurring basis that used significant unobservable inputs (Level 3).



	Current portion			Long-term portion			Total
Balance as of December 31, 2015	$	9,678		$	10,166		$	19,844
Earn-out obligation payments	(18,515		)	—			(18,515		)

Reclassification from long-term to current	10,445			(10,445		)	—
Balance as of September 30, 2016	$	—		$	—		$	—

(9) Income Taxes

Our effective tax rate was 36.4% and 39.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Income tax expense during interim periods is based on our estimated annual effective income tax rate plus any discrete items that are recorded in the period in which they occur. Our tax rate is affected by discrete items that may occur in any given year, but may not be consistent from year to year. The lower effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was primarily due to fair value changes of $1.3 million to our earn-out obligation and tax credits. The higher effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was primarily due to approximately $900 thousand of transaction costs that were not deductible for tax purposes.

(10) Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2015-17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes, which amends the current requirement for organizations to present deferred tax assets and liabilities as current and noncurrent in a classified balance sheet. Organizations will now be required to classify all deferred tax assets and liabilities as noncurrent. The ASU will become effective for us in January 2017; however, early adoption is permitted. The ASU can be applied either prospectively to all deferred tax liabilities and assets or retrospectively to all periods presented. We adopted ASU 2015-17 on January 1, 2016 and retrospectively applied this amended accounting guidance to our deferred tax liabilities and assets for all periods presented. The impact of this change in accounting principle on balances previously reported as of December 31, 2015 was a reclassification of our net current deferred tax assets of approximately $3.6 million to net long-term deferred tax liabilities. The adoption of ASU 2015-17 did not impact our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs. Under the new standard, debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability are required to be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The guidance in ASU 2015-03 is effective for the fiscal year, and interim periods within that fiscal year, beginning after December 15, 2015. We adopted the provisions of ASU 2015-03 January 1, 2016 and prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. As of December 31,

VSE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

September 30, 2016

2015, approximately $285 thousand of debt issuance costs was reclassified in the consolidated balance sheet from other current assets to current portion of long-term debt and approximately $882 thousand was reclassified from other assets to long-term debt, less current portion. The adoption of ASU 2015-03 did not impact our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which changes the methodology for measuring credit losses on financial instruments and the timing of when such losses are recorded. The new standard is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019 with early adoption permitted for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. We currently are assessing the impact that this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which is intended to simplify the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities and classification on the statement of cash flows. The new standard is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 with early adoption permitted. We currently are assessing the impact that this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. The new standard is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018 with early adoption permitted. We currently are assessing the impact that this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes most current revenue recognition guidance, including industry-specific guidance. The ASU is based on the principle that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for the goods or services. The ASU also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to fulfill a contract. The effective date of the ASU was recently deferred to the interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted as of the original effective date–interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2016. We currently are assessing the impact that this standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.

Management Outlook

Our revenues have increased on both a year over year and quarter to quarter basis in 2016 and we believe that this trend will continue through the remainder of year. Our traditional business offerings, consisting of contracted services to sustain and improve the performance of transportation, equipment, and other assets and systems for DoD and other federal government clients, have been the largest contributor to our increase in current year revenue. Our newer businesses, which include supply chain management solutions to support ground transportation clients and MRO and parts supply and distribution services to support air transportation clients, continue to provide significant contributions to our revenues and the majority of our operating income. We believe we have a well-balanced business enterprise serving a diversified set of sustainment services clients that is poised for success and growth currently and in the near future.

We are continuing to see growth in our Federal Services Group revenues driven by several new efforts initiated within the past 15 months, including work to transfer two frigates to Taiwan under our FMS Program, our RRAD ERS Program, and our Fort Benning Logistics Support Services Program. These programs and additional smaller new work efforts are providing our Federal Services Group with revenue growth for 2016 and a solid base for future years. Contract funding increases in 2016 have resulted in bookings of $405 million for our federal contracting businesses as of the end of our third quarter, further supporting a favorable outlook for our federal contracting revenue base. Additionally, we have developed strong international business relationships through our work with foreign client countries which we are using to market our services to international clients.

Revenues for our Supply Chain Management Group have increased modestly in 2016 as compared to revenue growth in the previous two years. Revenue growth for this group has been provided by increased sales of vehicle parts to DoD, increased supply chain and inventory management support for commercial vehicle fleets, and revenue from our acquisition of Ultra Seating Company in December 2015. We continue to broaden our base of commercial clients and make progress toward capturing new commercial vehicle fleet clients.

We are a key partner with the USPS and our mission critical supply chain support should continue to be essential in sustaining the aging USPS fleet as this client embarks on a lengthy transition to a new fleet of delivery vehicles. The USPS has selected six prospective providers who will compete to become the eventual provider of the new USPS delivery vehicle fleet. The industry team with whom our WBI subsidiary participated was not selected. In addition to evaluating custom prototypes from the six prospective providers, the USPS may consider the procurement of both custom and commercial off the shelf ("COTS") vehicles or of only COTS vehicles. While we will not participate in the competition to provide new vehicles, we will be seeking to participate with the selected prospective providers to offer original content, program management, and warranty support. Aftermarket parts supply and supply chain services to support the USPS' new vehicle fleet will continue to be part of our model as we service USPS' newly acquired vehicles as they begin to age. In addition we will continue servicing over 40,000 USPS assets that will not be affected by the delivery vehicle fleet replacement procurement. Based on the USPS' published time line indications and the size, scope, and complexity of USPS' vehicle fleet procurement effort, it may be at least three to five years before the first group of vehicles is produced, and require an additional seven to nine years to produce and place into service all of the vehicles to be procured. USPS' previously published vehicle procurement time lines have frequently experienced changes and delays. It is also likely that a portion of the existing fleet of older delivery vehicles will be retained and redeployed to meet the growing demand for delivery services. We believe that our years of service and knowledge of this client’s needs strategically position us to participate in servicing the eventual replacement fleet and residual portion of the existing fleet. While we cannot predict with certainty the impact of the USPS fleet transition on our future revenues, our revenues derived from servicing the USPS over the next two to three years are expected to continue at current levels.

Our Aviation Group contributes approximately 20% of our revenues and is a significant part of our strategy to expand our markets for sustainment services while diversifying our revenue base and strengthening growth potential. This group has provided us with a

-18-

Table of Contents

wide range of new clients, competencies and key industry relationships that offer potential synergies as we seek to extend these service offerings to our traditional U.S. and international military client base. Revenue and operating income for this group may experience fluctuations due to market demand and the mix of products sold.

Our operating income in 2016 was reduced by a reserve of $1.2 million and related expenses associated with the Heritage Litigation discussed in Commitments and Contingencies in Note 5 of the Notes to our Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Report. A final decision by the court on this matter has not yet been rendered.

Increases in the level of business from our Federal Services Group’s contract activity, strategic inventory purchases in our Supply Chain and Aviation groups, and future acquisition activity could require increased levels of capital investment. This could limit our debt reduction or possibly increase future debt levels. We believe that these investments are beneficial to our future financial performance and direction and that we are well positioned to service the levels of debt necessary to support our growth opportunities.

Bookings and Funded Backlog

Revenues for federal government contract work performed by our Federal Services and IT, Energy and Management Consulting groups depend on contract funding (“bookings”), and bookings generally occur when contract funding documentation is received. Funded contract backlog is an indicator of potential future revenue for these groups. While bookings and funded contract backlog generally result in revenue, we may occasionally have funded contract backlog that expires or is de-obligated upon contract completion and does not generate revenue.

A summary of our bookings and revenues for our Federal Services and IT, Energy and Management Consulting groups for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, and funded contract backlog for these groups as of September 30, 2016 and 2015 was as follows (in millions):



	2016		2015
Bookings	$	405	$	184
Revenues	$	225	$	157
Funded Contract Backlog	$	400	$	214

Bookings for our Supply Chain Management and Aviation groups occur at the time of sale. These groups do not generally have funded contract backlog and backlog is not an indicator of their potential future revenues. Due to the nature of revenues generated by our Supply Chain Management and Aviation groups, we include only our Federal Services and IT, Energy and Management Consulting groups in our disclosure relative to bookings and funded contract backlog.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill is subject to a review for impairment at least annually. We perform an annual review of goodwill for impairment during the fourth quarter and whenever events or other changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be fully recoverable. The results of our impairment analysis performed in the fourth quarter of 2015 indicated that the fair value of our Akimeka reporting unit within our IT, Energy, and Management Consulting Group exceeded its carrying value by approximately 9% at that time. If there is deterioration of Akimeka’s projected cash flows or negative changes in other related market factors, Akimeka may be at risk of future goodwill impairment. We believe that Akimeka’s financial performance for the first three quarters of 2016 did not indicate any events or other circumstances that would require a change in our impairment analysis performed during the fourth quarter of 2015. The carrying value of our Akimeka reporting unit as of September 30, 2016 included goodwill of approximately $29.8 million.

As of September 30, 2016, we have no intangible assets with indefinite lives and we had an aggregate of approximately $199 million of goodwill associated with our acquisitions.

Costs and operating expenses consist primarily of cost of inventory and delivery of our products sold; direct costs including labor, material, and supplies used in the performance of our contract work; indirect costs associated with our direct contract costs; sales, general, and administrative expenses associated with our operating groups and corporate management; and certain costs and charges arising from nonrecurring events outside the ordinary course of business. These costs will generally increase or decrease in conjunction with our level of products sold or contract work performed. Costs and operating expenses also include expense for amortization of intangible assets acquired through our acquisitions. Expense for amortization of acquisition related intangible assets is included in the segment results in which the acquisition is included. Segment results also include expense for an allocation of corporate management costs.

Our costs and operating expenses increased approximately $35 million or 28% for the third quarter of 2016, and approximately $85 million or 24% for the first nine months of 2016, as compared to the same periods of 2015. Costs and operating expenses from our Federal Services and Supply Chain Management groups increased for the third quarter and for the first nine months of 2016. Costs and operating expenses from our Aviation Group were substantially unchanged for the third quarter and the inclusion of our Aviation Group in our operating results for a full nine months increased costs and operating expenses in 2016. Costs and operating expenses from our IT, Energy and Management Consulting Group decreased for the third quarter and first nine months of 2016. Costs and operating expenses for the first nine months of 2016 included a reserve of $1.2 million and legal expenses of approximately $494 thousand related to the Heritage Litigation discussed in Note 5 to our Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Report.

Our operating income increased approximately $380 thousand or 3% for the third quarter of 2016, and increased approximately $2.8 million or 8% for the first nine months of 2016, as compared to the same periods of 2015. Operating income from our Supply Chain Management Group decreased for the third quarter and increased for the first nine months of 2016. Operating income from our Aviation Group increased for the third quarter and the inclusion of our Aviation Group in our operating results for a full nine months increased operating income in 2016. Operating income from our Federal Services Group decreased for the third quarter and increased for the first nine months of 2016. Operating income from our IT, Energy and Management Consulting Group decreased for the third quarter and first nine months of 2016. Our operating income for the first nine months of 2016 was reduced by the charges and expenses related to the adverse civil litigation ruling.

Changes in revenues, costs and operating expenses, and income are further discussed in the summaries of our segment results that follow.

Interest expense increased approximately $405 thousand for the first nine months of 2016, as compared to the same period of 2015, due primarily to an increase in our average level of bank borrowing in 2016 and an increase in interest rates. Interest expense also includes interest associated with capitalized construction costs related to our executive and administrative headquarters facility lease. The amount of interest expense associated with this capital lease was approximately $1.2 million in the first nine months of both 2016 and 2015.

Our effective tax rate was 36.4% and 39.6% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. Income tax expense during interim periods is based on our estimated annual effective income tax rate plus any discrete items that are recorded in the period in which they occur. Our tax rate is affected by discrete items that may occur in any given year, but may not be consistent from year to year. Our effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 was reduced due to fair value changes of approximately $1.3 million to our earn-out obligation and tax credits. Our effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was increased due to approximately $900 thousand of transaction costs that were not deductible for tax purposes.

Revenues for our Supply Chain Management Group increased approximately $837 thousand or 2% for the third quarter of 2016 and approximately $7.7 million or 5% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, as compared to the same periods of 2015. The revenue increase for the third quarter resulted primarily from an increase in sales to government and commercial customers of approximately $3.4 million, including sales of approximately $804 thousand from Ultra Seating, which we acquired on December 31, 2015. The increase in revenues for the third quarter was partially offset by a decrease in sales to USPS of approximately $2.6 million. The revenue increase for the first nine months resulted from an increase in sales to government and commercial customers of approximately $8.3 million, including Ultra Seating sales of approximately $2.6 million. The increase in revenues for the first nine months was partially offset by a decrease in sales to USPS of approximately $641 thousand.

Costs and operating expenses increased by approximately $1.3 million or 3% for the third quarter and approximately $7.3 million or 6% for the first nine months, primarily due to the increase in revenues. Costs and operating expenses for 2015 included approximately $527 thousand for the first nine months due to increases to the accrued post-closing earn-out obligation associated with our acquisition of WBI.

Operating income decreased by approximately $486 thousand or 5% for the third quarter and increased approximately $378 thousand or 1% for the first nine months. The mix of products sold associated with our increasing government and commercial customer revenues have lower profit margins than products associated with keeping the aging USPS delivery vehicles operational, which tends to lower our overall profit margins as our revenue mix changes.

Our Aviation Group began operations upon the acquisition of our aviation businesses on January 28, 2015; therefore, the results for our Aviation Group include a full nine months for 2016 and approximately eight months for 2015. Accordingly, year over year comparisons for this group for the first nine months should consider this variance.

Revenues for our Aviation Group increased approximately $1.7 million or 5% for the third quarter of 2016, as compared to the same period of 2015. The revenue increase for the third quarter resulted primarily from an increase in distribution of new parts and sales of used serviceable parts and engines.

Costs and operating expenses remained substantially unchanged for the third quarter of 2016 as compared to the prior year. Costs and operating expenses for the first nine months of 2015 included approximately $508 thousand for a valuation adjustment to the accrued earn-out obligation associated with the acquisition of our aviation businesses. Costs and operating expenses for the first nine months of 2016 include a reduction in costs of approximately $1.3 million for a valuation adjustment to the accrued earn-out obligation associated with the acquisition of our aviation businesses, and a nonrecurring increase in expense of approximately $300 thousand related to a settlement agreement.

Operating income for our Aviation Group increased approximately $1.8 million or 87% for the third quarter of 2016, as compared to the same period of 2015. The operating income increase for the third quarter resulted from the increased revenues and the timing and mix of sales during the period, advantageous bulk inventory purchases, and facility cost reductions. The operating income for the first nine months of 2016 was increased by approximately $1.3 million due to the reduction in costs associated with the valuation adjustment of the earn-out obligation and decreased by approximately $300 thousand due to the expense associated with the settlement agreement mentioned above. In July 2016, we reached an agreement for an early termination and final payment of our post-closing earn-out obligation, and a final earn-out payment of $10.5 million was made in July 2016.

Revenues for our Federal Services Group increased approximately $33 million or 78% for the third quarter of 2016 and approximately $72 million or 61% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, as compared to the same periods of 2015. Significant items affecting our third quarter revenue on a year to year comparative basis include an increase of approximately $18 million in revenues on our FMS Program, increased revenues of approximately $15 million due to the start of our RRAD ERS Program in the second quarter of 2016, increased revenues of approximately $3 million due to the start of our Ft. Benning Logistics Support Services Program subsequent to the second quarter of 2015, and changes in the level of work on other program efforts. Significant items affecting our first nine months revenue on a year to year comparative basis include an increase of approximately $41 million in revenues on our FMS Program, increased revenues of approximately $24 million due to the start of our RRAD ERS Program in the second quarter of 2016, increased revenues of approximately $14 million due to the start of our Ft. Benning Logistics Support Services Program subsequent to the second quarter of 2015, and changes in the level of work on other program efforts.

Costs and operating expenses increased approximately $34 million or 82% for the third quarter of 2016 and approximately $70 million or 60% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, as compared to the same periods of 2015. The increases in costs and operating expenses are attributable to the increased level of work associated with our revenue increases.

Operating income for our Federal Services Group decreased approximately $486 thousand for the third quarter and increased approximately $1.9 million for the first nine months of 2016, as compared to the same periods of 2015. The change in operating income for the third quarter was primarily due to the start of new contract work that was won in a more competitive bidding environment that requires us to price our services more aggressively to sustain and build our revenue levels. The change in operating income for the first nine months resulted primarily from the increases in revenues and to an improved balance in facility and infrastructure costs that support the group’s operations.

IT, Energy and Management Consulting Group Results

The results of operations for our IT, Energy and Management Consulting Group are as follows (dollars in thousands):



	Three months						Nine months						Change
	ended September 30,						ended September 30,						Three			Nine

Profit percentage	8.5		%	9.9		%	7.6		%	9.8		%

Revenues for our IT, Energy and Management Consulting Group decreased approximately $302 thousand or 3% for the third quarter of 2016 and decreased approximately $4.6 million or 12% for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, as compared to the same periods of 2015. Costs and operating expenses decreased approximately $117 thousand or 1% for the third quarter and decreased approximately $3.4 million or 10% for the nine months. The decreases in revenue and costs and operating expenses for the quarter and for the first nine months resulted primarily from a decline in services ordered by clients, contract expirations, and a loss of work performed by this group on expiring contracts for which the follow-on work was often awarded to small businesses on set-aside contracts. While these circumstances have caused results to be lower on a year over year basis, revenue levels for 2016 have stabilized on a quarter to quarter basis.

-23-

Table of Contents

Operating income decreased by approximately $185 thousand or 16% for the third quarter and approximately $1.2 million or 31% for the first nine months, primarily due to a decline in revenue.

Financial Condition

There has been no material change in our financial condition in the first nine months of 2016. Changes to asset and liability accounts were due primarily to our earnings, our level of business activity, the timing of inventory purchases, contract delivery schedules, subcontractor and vendor payments required to perform our contract work, and the timing of associated billings to and collections from our customers. Our debt reduction has been limited by an increased capital commitment to support growth in our business and by a negotiated early termination of an earn-out obligation associated with our January 2015 aviation acquisition.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Flows

Cash and cash equivalents decreased approximately $187 thousand during the first nine months of 2016.

Cash provided by operating activities increased approximately $9.9 million in the first nine months of 2016 as compared to the first nine months of 2015. The change is primarily attributable to an increase of approximately $11.1 million due to changes in the levels of operating assets and liabilities, a decrease of approximately $3.6 million in noncash operating activities, and an increase of approximately $2.4 million in cash provided by net income.

Our inventories and accounts receivable represent a significant amount of our assets, and our accounts payable represent a significant amount of our operating liabilities. Inventory levels and accounts payable may fluctuate depending on the timing and amounts of inventory purchases. A significant portion of our accounts receivable and accounts payable result from the use of subcontractors to perform work on our contracts and from the purchase of materials to fulfill our contract obligations. Accordingly, our levels of accounts receivable and accounts payable may fluctuate depending on the timing of services ordered and products sold, government funding delays, the timing of billings received from subcontractors and materials vendors, and the timing of payments received for services. Such timing differences have the potential to cause significant increases and decreases in our inventory, accounts receivable, and accounts payable balances in short time periods, and accordingly, can cause significant increases or decreases in our cash provided by operations. Increases in our level of business can also cause increases in our inventories and receivables, which in turn can decrease our cash provided by operations.

Cash used in investing activities decreased approximately $193 million in the first nine months of 2016 as compared to the first nine months of 2015. Cash used in investing activities for 2015 included approximately $191 million for the acquisition of our aviation businesses.

Cash used in financing activities was approximately $23 million in the first nine months of 2016 as compared to cash provided by financing activities of approximately $180 million in the first nine months of 2015. This change was primarily due to bank borrowing to finance the acquisition of our aviation businesses in 2015.

We paid cash dividends totaling approximately $1.8 million or $0.17 per share in the first nine months of 2016. Our payment of cash dividends is subject to restrictions in our loan agreement, including a restriction on the annual aggregate amount of dividends we may pay. We have paid cash dividends each year since 1973 and have increased our dividend each year since 2004.

Liquidity

Our internal sources of liquidity are primarily from operating activities, specifically from changes in our level of revenues and associated inventory, accounts receivable, and accounts payable, and from profitability. Significant increases or decreases in revenues and inventory, accounts receivable, and accounts payable can impact our liquidity. Our inventory and accounts payable levels can be affected by the timing of large opportunistic inventory purchases. Our accounts receivable and accounts payable levels can be affected by changes in the level of contract work we perform, by the timing of large materials purchases and subcontractor efforts used in our contracts, and by delays in the award of contractual coverage and funding and payments. Government funding delays can cause delays in our ability to invoice for revenues earned, presenting a potential negative impact on our days sales outstanding.

Table of Contents

We also purchase property and equipment; invest in expansion, improvement, and maintenance of our operational and administrative facilities; and invest in the acquisition of other companies. In 2015, our acquisitions required a significant use of cash.

Our external financing consists of a loan agreement with a bank group that provides for a term loan, revolving loans, and letters of credit. The termination date of the loan agreement is January 2020. This agreement was implemented in January 2015 concurrent with the acquisition of our aviation businesses. Our outstanding debt of approximately $231 million as of September 30, 2016 was net of unamortized deferred financing costs of approximately $1.8 million.

The term loan requires quarterly installment payments. Our scheduled term loan payments after September 30, 2016 are approximately $4.7 million in 2016, $21.6 million in 2017, $28.1 million in 2018, $30 million in 2019, and $36.2 million in 2020. The amount of our term loan borrowings outstanding as of June 30, 2016 was approximately $120.6 million.

The maximum amount of credit available to us under our loan agreement for revolving loans and letters of credit as of September 30, 2016 was $150 million. We may borrow and repay the revolving loan borrowings as our cash flows require or permit. We pay an unused commitment fee and fees on letters of credit that are issued. We had approximately $112.6 million in revolving loan amounts outstanding and $11 thousand of letters of credit outstanding as of September 30, 2016. The timing of certain payments made and collections received associated with our inventory, subcontractor, and materials requirements and other operating expenses can cause fluctuations in our outstanding revolving loan amounts. Delays in government funding of our work performed can also cause additional borrowing requirements.

Under our loan agreement we may elect to increase the maximum availability of the term loan facility, the revolving loan facility, or a combination of both facilities up to an aggregate additional amount of $75 million.

We pay interest on the term loan borrowings and revolving loan borrowings at LIBOR plus a base margin or at a base rate (typically the prime rate) plus a base margin. As of September 30, 2016, the LIBOR base margin was 2.25% and the base rate base margin was 1.00%. The base margins increase or decrease in steps as our Total Funded Debt/EBITDA Ratio increases or decreases.

Our loan agreement requires us to have interest rate hedges on a portion of the outstanding term loan for the first three years of the agreement. We executed compliant interest rate hedges in February 2015. After taking into account the impact of hedging instruments, as of September 30, 2016, interest rates on portions of our outstanding debt ranged from 2.77% to 4.50%, and the effective interest rate on our aggregate outstanding debt was 3.18%.

Our loan agreement contains collateral requirements to secure our loan agreement obligations, restrictive covenants, a limit on annual dividends, and other affirmative and negative covenants, conditions and limitations. Restrictive covenants include a maximum Total Funded Debt/EBITDA Ratio, which decreases over time, and a minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. We were in compliance with the financial covenants and other terms and conditions at September 30, 2016.



	Current Maximum Ratio	Actual Ratio
Total Funded Debt/EBITDA Ratio	3.25 to 1	2.93 to 1



	Minimum Ratio	Actual Ratio
Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio	1.20 to 1	1.73 to 1

We currently do not use public debt security financing.

Inflation and Pricing

Most of our Government contracts provide for estimates of future labor costs to be escalated for any option periods, while the non-labor costs in our contracts are normally considered reimbursable at cost. Our property and equipment consists principally of land, buildings and improvements, shop and warehouse equipment, computer systems equipment, and furniture and fixtures. We do not expect the overall impact of inflation on replacement costs of our property and equipment to be material to our future results of operations or financial condition.

Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rates

Our bank loan agreement provides available borrowing to us at variable interest rates. Accordingly, future interest rate changes could potentially put us at risk for a material adverse impact on future earnings and cash flows. To mitigate the risks associated with future interest rate movements we have employed interest rate hedges to fix the rate on a portion of our outstanding borrowings for various periods. The resulting fixed rates on this portion of our debt are higher than current variable rates and have increased our net effective rate, but have given us protection against interest rate increases.

In February 2015, we entered into a LIBOR based interest rate swap on our term loan for a term of four years with a notional amount of $100 million. The swap amount on our term loan decreases in increments on an annual basis. As of September 30, 2016, the amount of the term loan swap was $75 million and with the term loan swap in place, we pay an effective interest rate of 1.25% plus our base margin. Also in February 2015, we entered into a LIBOR based interest rate swap on our revolving loan for a term of three years with a notional amount of $25 million. As of September 30, 2016, with the revolving loan swap in place, we pay an effective rate of 1.25% plus our base margin.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, based on management's evaluation, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")), our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

In connection with our Aviation Acquisition, certain areas of internal control over financial reporting changed. These areas are primarily related to integrating corporate functions at VSE that previously existed at the Aviation Acquisition such as entity level control and certain financial reporting controls. Certain control structure items remain in operation at the Aviation Acquisition, primarily related to the financial reporting, information technology, inventory management, human resources, processing and billing of revenues, and collection of those revenues. The control structure at the Aviation Acquisition have been modified to appropriately oversee and incorporate these activities into the overall control structure.

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting during our third quarter of fiscal 2016 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. Other Information

Item 1. Legal Proceedings
