Item 8.01. Other Events.
On March 27, 2015, Raytheon Company announced that Raytheon Systems Limited (also known as Raytheon UK) (“RSL”) had reached a settlement with the UK Home Office concluding the parties’ dispute regarding the UK Home Office’s July 2010 termination of RSL’s eBorders contract. The settlement includes a cash payment from the UK Home Office to RSL of £150 million in exchange for the resolution of all claims and counterclaims of both parties that were part of the London arbitration of the eBorders contract claims.
After certain expenses and consideration of the outstanding receivables, we expect to record approximately $175 million in operating income from the settlement in the first quarter 2015. The £150 million cash payment is expected to be received in the second quarter 2015.
