Acquisition of U.S. Federal Citizen Engagement Centers    Acquisition provides MAXIMUS with a level of scale that makes us a more viable prime contractor to the U.S. Federal   Government and reduces our need to partner with other companies to win business. This acquisition also enables us to   become more competitive on procurements in the federal marketplace.    Expected impacts to our financial statements resulting from the acquisition    •  Expect revenue for the remaining 10 ½ months of FY19 between $600M and $625M   •  The two largest acquired contracts are cost-plus        ̶  Revenue and billings for cost-plus contracts include the allowable expenses, plus a fee        ̶  These types of contracts carry a lower risk and operate at a lower operating margin – in the mid-single digits     •  While the profit earned on the acquired cost-plus contracts are mid-single digits, they will provide significant      synergistic benefits to MAXIMUS and a lift in profitability in other segments. Two main drivers:        1. While total Company SG&A costs will increase in order to handle the additional volume of work, the acquired            assets will significantly expand the business base used for the allocation of indirect costs. Simply put, adding            this business into the total Company portfolio allows us to spread the corporate SG&A cost across a            substantially larger base of revenue        2. The two largest contracts that we acquired are cost-plus contracts. Accordingly, MAXIMUS will be reimbursed            for the portion of these corporate SG&A costs that are allowable under U.S. Federal procurement rules and our            agreed upon allocation methodologies   •  Bottom line: The amount of indirect costs that MAXIMUS will recover under the new cost-plus contracts is greater      than the overall increase in SG&A dollars to support the new assets, and while dilutive to the overall operating margin      it provides an overall lift in operating income to the Company        8 | MAXIMUS: Q4 FY18 EARNINGS PRESENTATION 
 
 
 
Acquisition Impact on Fiscal Year 2019 Guidance    •  FY19 guidance, includes certain estimated      expenses related to the acquisition:         ̶  Interest expense on our borrowings and the            reduction in interest income forfeited from            the cash used for the acquisition          ̶  One-time acquisition costs         ̶  Amortization of intangibles; the appraisal is            currently in process and expected to be            completed in coming weeks. Amortization is            a non-cash charge and EBITDA will            increase more than operating income   •  Considering all elements of the transaction, we      now expect the acquisition will contribute      approximately $0.45 of diluted EPS in FY19        9 | MAXIMUS: Q4 FY18 EARNINGS PRESENTATION
