Other Events. |
On October 29, 2014, a subsidiary of MAXIMUS, Inc. signed a contract with the United Kingdom Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) to provide health and disability assessment services. The Company will begin work immediately with a four-month transition and mobilization period, followed by 36 months of operations that are expected to launch on March 1, 2015 and run through February 28, 2018. The DWP has the option to extend the contract for two additional years.
The Company expects this contract to contribute revenue of approximately $140 million to $165 million during its seven months of operations in fiscal year 2015. The contract is expected to be accretive in fiscal 2015. The Company expects to defer mobilization costs and revenue over the life of the contract. This is a hybrid contract that is predominantly cost-reimbursable with cost ceilings, and includes potential incentive fees and penalties.
On October 30, 2014, the Company issued a press release announcing the DWP contract. A copy of that press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
