At the same time it released quarterly results, Kratos said it recorded a noncash goodwill and intangible asset impairment charge of $96.6 million. Kratos said the charge “is related primarily to previously acquired legacy services businesses, which the company has de-emphasized as part of its core strategy over the past several years, as Kratos builds a specialty product and technology-based business.”
The defense contractor also reported it had a backlog of work worth $1.3 billion.
Shares of Kratos trade on the Nasdaq under the symbol KTOS.
