We regularly benchmark our solutions with the help of industry-recognized third parties who, along with feedback from clients, help us to ensure that we maintain alignment to market trends.
IT Complexity
Organizations are increasingly reliant on the IT estate to achieve critical business and organizational outcomes. A well-built IT estate provides the foundation for an organization to maximize returns on technology investments while simultaneously reducing risk and minimizing disruptions that have potentially far-reaching competitive, operational, and reputational impacts. The accelerating pace of innovation throughout the technology stack, increasing regulation, growing technical debt and skill gaps, and evolving threat landscapes make maintaining and evolving the IT estate more complex. At the same time, emerging technologies, such as generative AI and agentic AI, are laying the foundations for a growing “digital workforce.” To remain competitive, clients increasingly must develop and execute on digital transformation roadmaps that incorporate integrating the “digital workforce” throughout their organization. In the context of these stakes and complexities, leveraging external expertise of IT service providers to advance and manage the IT estate is of increasing strategic importance and allows clients to focus on their core businesses.
Hybrid Multi-Cloud Infrastructure
Enterprises are increasingly adopting a hybrid multi-cloud strategy often leveraging a combination of public, private and SaaS clouds based on business and security needs, type of applications and cost considerations. By adopting strategic hybrid architectures, companies can better align technology investments with business objectives while mitigating risks associated with over-dependence on any single environment and creating cost effective landing zones for evolving workloads. Hybrid multi-cloud environments offer speed, flexibility and new technology adoption but also introduce governance, workforce, financial and operational complexities. Navigating these challenges requires strong cloud governance, upskilled talent and dynamic cost controls. As artificial intelligence and digital initiatives continue to advance, businesses must focus on enabling rapid adoption of hybrid multi-cloud strategies as a foundation to achieve these goals. Doing so requires deep expertise to manage and operate at scale, including competency in the latest private and public cloud best practices, alongside expertise in more traditional IT infrastructure (e.g., data centers, servers and networking hardware) as more companies evaluate repatriation of cloud workloads within their hybrid multi-cloud strategies. We believe the breadth of our IT infrastructure experience and capabilities position us as a key partner as clients embrace a balanced, hybrid approach to IT infrastructure.

Experience
Citizens increasingly expect a digital experience when engaging government services such as voter registration, tax filing and application processes for licenses, permits, visas or passports. Governments and law enforcement agencies are also seeking to automate processes, leverage data to make better decisions and improve transparency and data sharing. Similarly, customers, employees, suppliers and partners expect a digital experience when interacting with enterprises. Enterprise IT organizations must continually evaluate and integrate new technologies, applications, and tools and modernize their existing infrastructure, data, and applications to meet these expectations. Doing so requires broad and deep expertise in hybrid multi-cloud infrastructure, application development and management, and systems integration that is difficult to maintain in-house and makes external IT solutions providers ever more integral to delivering on experience expectations.
Agentic Artificial Intelligence
The evolution of AI is moving beyond the confines of Generative AI and deep reasoning toward the emerging paradigm of agentic AI. Unlike traditional models that focus on generating content or solving simple problems in isolation, agentic AI introduces autonomous, goal-driven systems capable of planning, reasoning, and acting within dynamic environments to solve complex problems. These agents rely on iterative AI inference to execute advanced decision-making with contextual adaptability, enabling them to execute multi-step tasks, collaborate with other systems, and respond intelligently to unforeseen challenges. This shift represents a critical leap toward AI systems that are not just reactive but proactive, paving the way for applications in areas such as autonomous operations, personalized digital assistants, and complex enterprise workflows. We expect rapidly developing effective AI agents and strategically applying them to business processes to accelerate growth or reduce costs will become critical for our clients to compete in their markets. Doing so will require the ability to effectively maintain and structure the right enterprise data, curate knowledge, reinforce learning, and allow for humans in the loop. As a result, we expect agentic AI to be an important demand driver for IT advisory, engineering and managed services to support agentic AI workloads in the coming years.
Enterprise Computing
The anticipated surge in AI and large language model (LLM) workloads is driving unprecedented demand for more complex computing infrastructure and data accessibility. As organizations scale their AI initiatives, the computational intensity required for training and inference of advanced models far exceeds traditional IT capabilities. High-performance computing (HPC) systems, equipped with specialized accelerators and optimized architectures, are becoming essential to handle massive datasets, complex algorithms, and real-time processing needs. This trend is reshaping enterprise technology strategies, pushing investments toward GPU clusters, distributed computing frameworks, and HPC solutions to ensure scalability, efficiency, and competitive advantage in an AI-driven economy.
Security
The evolving threat landscape, driven by sophisticated adversaries, rapid technological advancements, changing regulatory environment and growing exposure across the enterprise IT ecosystem, demands a more proactive approach to cybersecurity. Organizations are increasingly recognizing that cybersecurity is not the responsibility of a single department but a collective obligation across the entire enterprise. Ensuring comprehensive security throughout the data lifecycle is critical, as businesses embed security into every aspect of their design, build, transformation and operational processes. To address the security challenges posed by emerging technologies such as AI and quantum computing, organizations must adopt adaptive and transformational security strategies, including post-quantum cryptography, to stay ahead of rapidly evolving threats.

We also seek to minimize capital expenditure and working capital commitments within our client engagements and pursue a research and development strategy that leverages co-investment with innovation partners where possible.
Competitive Landscape
We operate in a highly competitive market that is affected by rapid changes in technology in the information services and technology industries. We face competition from many domestic and foreign companies. Our primary competitors are systems integrators, consulting and other professional services firms, outsourcing providers, infrastructure services providers, computer hardware manufacturers and software providers.
We compete primarily based on service quality, product performance, technological innovation, price and reputation, among other factors. We believe that our investment in enhancing and expanding our IT solutions and services, coupled with investment in our go-to-market capabilities, will favor our competitive position. For more information on the competitive risks we face, see “Risk Factors” (Part I, Item 1A of this Form 10-K).
Materials
Unisys purchases components and supplies from a number of suppliers around the world. We rely on a single or limited number of suppliers for certain technology products, although we attempt to ensure that alternative sources are available if the need arises. The failure of our suppliers to deliver components and supplies in sufficient quantities and in a timely manner could adversely affect our business. For more information on the risks associated with purchasing components and supplies, see “Risk Factors” (Part I, Item 1A of this Form 10-K).
Patents, Trademarks and Licenses
As of January 31, 2026, Unisys owned over 360 active U.S. patents and over 25 active patents granted in seven non-U.S. jurisdictions. These patents cover systems and methods related to a wide variety of technologies, including, but not limited to, information security, cloud computing, virtualization, database encryption/management and user interfaces. We have granted licenses covering both single patents and particular groups of patents, to others. Likewise, we have active licensing agreements granting us rights under patents owned by other entities. Our business is not materially dependent upon any single patent, patent license or related group thereof.
Unisys also maintained 17 U.S. trademark and service mark registrations, and over 240 additional trademark and service mark registrations in thirty-eight non-U.S. jurisdictions as of January 31, 2026. These marks are valuable assets used on or in connection with our services and products, and as such are actively monitored and protected by Unisys and its agents.
Seasonality
Our revenue is affected by factors such as the introduction of new services and solutions, the length of sales cycles and the seasonality of purchases. Seasonality generally has not resulted in material quarterly revenue changes. Changes in timing or terms of renewals from client to client can lead to fluctuations in software license revenue from period to period since accounting rules require that software license revenue be recognized when the license term begins.
Total Contract Value (TCV) and Backlog
TCV represents the initial estimated revenue related to contracts signed in the period without regard for early termination or revenue recognition rules. Changes to contracts and scope are treated as TCV only to the extent of the incremental new value. Measuring TCV involves the use of estimates and judgments and the extent and timing of conversion of TCV to revenue may be impacted by, among other factors, the types of services and solutions sold, contract duration, the pace of client spending, actual volumes of services delivered as compared to the volumes anticipated at the time of contract signing, and contract modifications, including, without limitation, contract nullification and termination, over the lifetime of a contract. At December 31, 2025, TCV was $2,207 million, compared to $1,946 million at December 31, 2024.
Backlog represents the estimated amount of future revenue to be recognized under contracted work, which has not yet been delivered or performed. Conversion of backlog to revenue may be impacted by, among other factors, execution timing, the extension, nullification or early termination of existing contracts with or without penalty, adjustments to estimates in pricing or volumes, seasonality and foreign currency exchange rates. At December 31, 2025, backlog was $3.16 billion, compared to
12
$2.84 billion at December 31, 2024. Approximately $1.11 billion (35%) of 2025 backlog is expected to be converted to revenue in 2026.
