material issues with liquidity, although we can give no assurances concerning our future liquidity, particularly in<br />

light of the state of global commerce and financial uncertainty.<br />

We also currently believe that existing cash, funds generated from operations, our credit facilities and access to<br />

the public and private debt and equity markets will be sufficient to provide for our anticipated working capital<br />

requirements, capital expenditures and share repurchases under our New Repurchase Program for the next<br />

12 months. We anticipate tax payments over the next three years to be approximately equal to our tax expense<br />

during the same period. We anticipate that our fiscal 2012 cash outlays may include strategic acquisitions. Other<br />

than those cash outlays noted in the “Contractual Obligations” discussion below in this MD&A, capital<br />

expenditures, potential acquisitions and share repurchases under our New Repurchase Program, no other significant<br />

cash outlays are anticipated in fiscal 2012.<br />

There can be no assurance, however, that our business will continue to generate cash flow at current levels, that<br />

ongoing operational improvements will be achieved, or that the cost or availability of future borrowings, if any,<br />

under our commercial paper program or our credit facilities or in the debt markets will not be impacted by any<br />

potential future credit and capital markets disruptions. If we are unable to maintain cash balances or generate<br />

sufficient cash flow from operations to service our obligations, we may be required to sell assets, reduce capital<br />

expenditures, reduce or eliminate strategic acquisitions, reduce or terminate our New Repurchase Program, reduce or<br />

eliminate dividends, refinance all or a portion of our existing debt or obtain additional financing. Our ability to<br />

make principal payments or pay interest on or refinance our indebtedness depends on our future performance and<br />

financial results, which, to a certain extent, are subject to general conditions in or affecting the defense, government<br />

and integrated communications and information technology and services markets and to general economic, political,<br />

financial, competitive, legislative and regulatory factors beyond our control.<br />

Net cash provided by operating activities: Our net cash provided by operating activities was $833.1 million<br />

in fiscal 2011 compared with $802.7 million in fiscal 2010. All of our segments had positive cash flow from<br />

operating activities in fiscal 2011, reflecting strong operating income, with a significant contribution received from<br />

our RF Communications segment.<br />

Net cash used in investing activities: Our net cash used in investing activities was $1,417.5 million in fiscal<br />

2011 compared with $250.1 million in fiscal 2010. Net cash used in investing activities in fiscal 2011 was due to<br />

$1,082.6 million of cash paid for acquired businesses, $311.3 million of property, plant and equipment additions,<br />

$13.6 million of capitalized software additions and $10.0 million of cash paid for a cost-method investment. Net<br />

cash used in investing activities in fiscal 2010 was due to $189.9 million of property, plant and equipment additions,<br />

$52.1 million of cash paid for acquired businesses and $8.1 million of capitalized software additions. The increase<br />

in capital expenditures in fiscal 2011 compared with fiscal 2010 is primarily due to the build-out of our Cyber<br />

Integration Center and our new RF Communications manufacturing facility. Our total capital expenditures, including<br />

capitalized software, in fiscal 2012 are expected to be between $265 million and $285 million.<br />

Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities: Our net cash provided by financing activities was<br />

$492.8 million in fiscal 2011 compared with net cash used in financing activities of $380.9 million in fiscal 2010.<br />

Net cash provided by financing activities in fiscal 2011 was due to $851.4 million of net proceeds from borrowings<br />

and $24.5 million of proceeds from the exercise of employee stock options, partially offset by $256.1 million used<br />

to repurchase shares of our common stock and $127.0 million used to pay cash dividends. Net cash used in<br />

financing activities in fiscal 2010 was due to $208.0 million used to repurchase shares of our common stock,<br />

$115.0 million used to pay cash dividends and $76.8 million used for repayment of borrowings, partially offset by<br />

$18.9 million of proceeds from the exercise of employee stock options.<br />

Common Stock Repurchases<br />

During fiscal 2011, we used $250.0 million to repurchase 5,325,690 shares of our common stock under our<br />

repurchase program at an average price per share of $46.94, including commissions. During fiscal 2010, we used<br />

$199.9 million to repurchase 4,779,411 shares of our common stock under our repurchase program at an average<br />

price per share of $41.83, including commissions. In fiscal 2011 and fiscal 2010, $6.1 million and $6.7 million,<br />

respectively, in shares of our common stock were delivered to us or withheld by us to satisfy withholding taxes on<br />

employee share-based awards. In fiscal 2010, we used $1.4 million to repurchase 29,760 shares of our common<br />

stock from our Rabbi Trust. Shares repurchased by us are cancelled and retired.<br />

On July 30, 2011, our Board of Directors approved the $1 billion New Repurchase Program. The New<br />

Repurchase Program replaced our previous share repurchase authorization under the 2009 Repurchase Program,<br />

which had a remaining, unused authorization of approximately $200 million at July 1, 2011. The New Repurchase<br />

Program does not have a stated expiration date. We currently expect to repurchase up to $500 million in shares<br />
