Directed Inquiry
Question: Investigate Leidos: Search USASpending for "CAGE codes 0PHZ5 OR 19961 OR 3Y924". Confirming these legacy Lockheed codes transferred to Leidos would prove the revenue was 'hidden' behind legacy identifiers rather than being undisclosed.. Report any findings as factual claims with dates and evidence.

Research Findings
My investigation found extensive documentation of Leidos's corporate history and its major 2016 acquisition of Lockheed Martin's Information Systems & Global Solutions business through a $5 billion Reverse Morris Trust transaction. This merger nearly doubled Leidos's size and created the largest government IT services contractor by revenue. However, I was unable to locate specific evidence confirming that CAGE codes 0PHZ5, 19961, or 3Y924 were legacy Lockheed Martin identifiers that transferred to Leidos. While Leidos does operate under multiple CAGE codes (including 0M7X2 and 5UTE0 found in current databases), the specific codes mentioned in the research question do not appear in publicly available CAGE code databases or transaction documentation. The absence of evidence for these specific legacy code transfers suggests either the codes are not publicly documented, are classified, or may not exist as described. To definitively prove revenue was 'hidden' behind legacy identifiers would require access to detailed USASpending.gov contract award data indexed by these specific codes, which was not accessible through my research.
