Leidos Holdings, Inc. (LDOS)

Government technology services, 47,000, 89% U.S.. Read October 2, 2026 from the annual report for the period ending January 2, 2026, filed February 17, 2026. Ranked 21 of the 38 Technology companies read so far, by the share within reach now.

The filing states the total and the U.S. count, nothing by segment or kind of work, so the systems and engineering shares are by description (c), said so.

The figures on this page come from the company's own annual report and from BLS staffing patterns for its industries, never from a roster. They are estimates with a stated method. Nothing here says what the company will do: within reach is not a forecast of jobs lost or of savings.
