Estimates have been prepared on the basis of the most current and best available information and actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates made by management include revenue recognition, stock-based compensation, allowance for doubtful accounts, valuation of goodwill and other intangible assets, patents, orbital slots and other licenses, software development, property, equipment and satellites, long-lived assets, derivatives, contingencies and income taxes including the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets.</span><span style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;min-width:fit-content;"> </span></p>

Pursuant to these agreements, the Company will indemnify, hold harmless and agree to reimburse the indemnified party for losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified party, including but not limited to losses relating to third-party intellectual property claims. To date, there have not been any material costs incurred in connection with such indemnification clauses. The Company’s insurance policies do not necessarily cover the cost of defending indemnification claims or providing indemnification, so if a claim was filed against the Company by any party that the Company has agreed to indemnify, the Company could incur substantial legal costs and damages. A claim would be accrued when a loss is considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated.

Such matters could result in fines; penalties, compensatory, treble or other damages; or non-monetary relief. A violation of government contract laws and regulations could also result in the termination of its government contracts or debarment from bidding on future government contracts. Although claims, suits, investigations and proceedings are inherently uncertain and their results cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company believes that the resolution of its current pending matters will not have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, results of operations or liquidity.</span><span style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;min-width:fit-content;"> </span></p><p style="text-indent:4.533%;font-size:10pt;margin-top:9pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;text-align:left;"><span style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;min-width:fit-content;">The Company has contracts with various U.S. Government agencies. Accordingly, the Company is routinely subject to audit and review by the DCMA, the DCAA and other U.S. Government agencies of its performance on government contracts, indirect rates and pricing practices, accounting and management internal control business systems, and compliance with applicable contracting and procurement laws, regulations and standards. An adverse outcome to a review or audit or other failure to comply with applicable contracting and procurement laws, regulations and standards could result in material civil and criminal penalties and administrative sanctions being imposed on the Company, which may include termination of contracts, forfeiture of profits, triggering of price reduction clauses, suspension of payments, significant customer refunds, fines and suspension, or a prohibition on doing business with U.S. Government agencies. In addition, if the Company fails to obtain an “adequate” determination of its various accounting and management internal control business systems from applicable U.S. Government agencies or if allegations of impropriety are made against it, the Company could suffer serious harm to its business or its reputation, including its ability to bid on new contracts or receive contract renewals and its competitive position in the bidding process. As of March 31, 2024, the DCMA had approved the Company's incurred costs through fiscal year 2022 with the exception of 2021, which is pending. The DCMA is currently auditing the Company's 2023 incurred cost submission. Although the Company has recorded contract revenues subsequent to fiscal year 2020 based upon an estimate of costs that the Company believes will be approved upon final audit or review, the Company does not know the outcome of any ongoing or future audits or reviews and adjustments and if future adjustments exceed the Company's estimates its profitability would be adversely affected. As of March 31, 2024 and 2023</span><span style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;min-width:fit-content;">, the Company had $</span><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;min-width:fit-content;">16.6</span><span style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;min-width:fit-content;"> million and $</span><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;min-width:fit-content;">12.9</span><span style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;min-width:fit-content;"> million, respectively, in contract-related reserves for its estimate of potential refunds to customers for potential cost adjustments on several multi-year U.S. Government cost reimbursable contracts. This reserve is classified as either an element of accrued liabilities or as a reduction of unbilled accounts receivable based on the status of the related contracts.</span><span style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;min-width:fit-content;"> </span></p><p style="font-size:10pt;margin-top:13.5pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;text-align:left;"><span style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-weight:bold;font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;font-style:italic;min-width:fit-content;">Certain matters resolved during fiscal years 2024 and 2023</span></p><p style="text-indent:4.533%;font-size:10pt;margin-top:4.5pt;font-family:Times New Roman;margin-bottom:0;text-align:left;"><span style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;min-width:fit-content;">On July 8, 2022, Cisco Systems, Inc.

The 2023 judgment obligated Acacia to make contractual royalty payments to the Company based on the quarterly sales of certain of its products. Acacia appealed the May 2023 judgment and on September 29, 2023, the Company and Acacia settled all pending litigation between them. As a result, in the second quarter of fiscal year 2024 the Company recorded $</span><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;min-width:fit-content;">99.9</span><span style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;min-width:fit-content;"> million as product revenues in the Company's commercial networks segment and $</span><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;min-width:fit-content;">7.2</span><span style="color:#000000;white-space:pre-wrap;font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial;min-width:fit-content;"> million as interest income.
