Nature of Operations

VSE Corporation (collectively, with its consolidated subsidiaries), "VSE," the "Company," "us," "we," or "our" is a leading provider of aftermarket parts distribution and maintenance, repair and overhaul ("MRO") services for air and land transportation assets for commercial and government markets. We operate in two reportable segments aligned with our operating segments: Aviation and Fleet.

Basis of Presentation

Our accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to SEC Form 10-Q and Article 10 of SEC Regulation S-X. Therefore, such financial statements do not include all the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 ("2023 Form 10-K"). In our opinion, all adjustments, including normal recurring items, considered necessary for a fair presentation of results for the interim periods have been included in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024. 

In February 2024, we entered into two separate agreements to sell substantially all of the Federal and Defense segment assets. See Note (3) "Discontinued Operations" for further information. The consolidated financial statements reflect the Federal and Defense segment's results of operations as discontinued operations for all periods presented, and the related assets and liabilities as held-for-sale as of December 31, 2023.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP 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 fair value measurements, inventory provisions, collectability of receivables, valuation allowances on deferred tax assets, fair value of goodwill and other intangible assets and contingencies.

Underwritten Public Offering

In May 2024, we entered into an underwriting agreement with certain underwriters, relating to the issuance and sale of up to 2,429,577 shares of the Company's common stock at a public offering price of $71.00 per share. On May 17, 2024, the Company issued 2,429,577 shares pursuant to the agreement, which included the exercise by the underwriters of their option to purchase additional shares. We received proceeds of approximately $162 million in connection with the offerings, net of issuance costs. We used substantially all of the proceeds of the public offering to repay outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit facility, including amounts borrowed to pay the purchase price of the acquisition of Turbine Controls, LLC ("TCI"), and for general corporate purposes.
Recent Accounting Pronouncement

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncement Not Yet Adopted

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which requires public entities to disclose information about their reportable segments’ significant expenses and other segment items on an interim and annual basis. Public entities with a single reportable segment are required to apply the disclosure requirements in ASU 2023-07, as well as all existing segment disclosures and reconciliation requirements in ASC 280 on an interim and annual basis. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. This guidance will be adopted by us beginning with the annual period of 2024. We are currently evaluating the impact that adoption of ASU 2023-07 may have on our consolidated financial statements and disclosure.
