NOBLIS INC

Shareholders of Noblis, Inc.

Noblis, Inc. has no shareholders. It is a nonprofit corporation exempt from tax under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. On its Form 990 for the fiscal year ending 3 October 2025, it answered “No” to Part VI, line 6, which asks whether the organisation has members or stockholders. It also answered “No” to both parts of line 7, which ask whether any members or stockholders can elect the governing body or must approve its decisions. It has no share capital, so nobody holds an equity stake in it, and there are no ownership percentages to report.

The same return also answers “No” to the question of whether the organisation was related to any other tax-exempt or taxable entity (Part IV, line 34). So its IRS reporting shows no parent organisation holding or controlling Noblis, Inc. Control rests with its governing body rather than with any owner.

Ultimate beneficial ownership

No person has a beneficial ownership interest in Noblis, Inc. through shares or other equity, because there is none to hold. This is a feature of its nonprofit, non-stock legal form, not a gap in disclosure. Anyone who needs to name controlling persons for an onboarding file should look to the governing body.

Data availability

Full: the absence of members or stockholders comes from the organisation’s own signed federal return. The Delaware and Virginia corporate registers could not be checked. Delaware’s search is protected by a captcha, and the Virginia State Corporation Commission’s systems did not respond or were geo-blocked from both research networks.

Directors and officers of Noblis, Inc.

Noblis, Inc. is governed by a Board of Trustees rather than a board of directors. Its Form 990 for the fiscal year ending 3 October 2025, signed on 10 February 2026, reports 10 voting members of the governing body at the year end, 9 of them independent. The return’s compensation schedule (Part VII) names 11 individuals as trustees. These include Michael Chertoff as Chairman, Letitia A. Long as Vice Chairman, and Mile K. Corrigan, who is both President and Chief Executive Officer and a trustee. Amr A. Elsawy is listed as a trustee and “former President & CEO”. He does not appear on the organisation’s current published board list, and no departure date has been confirmed.

The officers named on the return are Mile K. Corrigan (President and CEO), Gary K. Sladic (Senior Vice President, Chief Financial and Administrative Officer and Treasurer), Lauren G. McGinley (Senior Vice President, General Counsel, Secretary and Chief Ethics and Compliance Officer) and Jonathan Horgan (Assistant Treasurer). Sladic also signed the return as principal officer. The return lists further key employees, the heads of the mission areas and the presidents of the two operating LLCs, with their titles and pay.

The organisation’s leadership page, retrieved on 30 September 2026, now names 10 trustees. It shows Rich Jacques as President of Noblis ESI, a post the return attributes to Richard Harrison. It also lists roles created after the fiscal year ended.

• Between the FY2025 return and 30 September 2026: Amr A. Elsawy is no longer shown on the published Board of Trustees. The exact date has not been verified.

Data availability

Partial: the trustees, officers and key employees come from the organisation’s signed IRS return, and later changes come from its own announcements. The Virginia and Delaware corporate registers could not be reached. Neither the return nor the website records nationality or country of residence, so both are not disclosed. Appointment dates are not published for most individuals.

Group structure of Noblis, Inc.

Noblis, Inc. sits at the top of its own group. It has no parent company. Its Form 990 for the fiscal year ending 3 October 2025 reports no related tax-exempt or taxable organisations, and it reports no members or stockholders. Schedule R of that return lists two disregarded entities, each directly controlled by Noblis, Inc. and each with Delaware as its state of legal domicile:

• Noblis ESI LLC, based in Chantilly, Virginia. It works on government contracts and reported $109.8 million of total income for the year. The organisation’s timeline records it as the former Elantech Systems, Inc., acquired in 2012.
• Noblis MSD LLC, based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It also works on government contracts and reported $158.1 million of total income. Its LEI record, validated against the Delaware register (file number 4159596), gives its previous legal name as McKean Defense Group, LLC. The timeline records the acquisition as taking place in 2021.

A disregarded entity is by definition wholly owned by a single member. The return’s classification therefore shows that Noblis, Inc. is the sole member of both LLCs. All verified group entities are in the United States.

Verified corporate relationships

Recent structural changes

• 17 August 2026: Noblis, Inc. announced that it had acquired FTS International, a provider of intelligence, defense and space mission services founded in 2005. The announcement does not name the legal entity acquired, its registration or the holding structure, so it does not appear in the table above.
• 21 October 2025: Noblis MSD and TDI Technologies announced the formation of Defense Technical Solutions, an SBA-approved mentor-protégé joint venture.
• 2021: Acquisition of McKean Defense Group, now Noblis MSD, according to the organisation’s timeline.

Data availability

Partial: the subsidiaries are verified from the signed IRS return, and Noblis MSD is also verified through its validated LEI record. The FTS International acquisition comes after that return and is known only from the organisation’s own announcement. The Delaware and Virginia registers could not be searched, and minority venture investments made through Noblis Ventures are not treated as group relationships here. Federal award data also shows a Noblis NSP, LLC (formerly Point One LLC) linked to Noblis, Inc., but no award activity is recorded for it in the latest period and it does not appear on the FY2025 return, so its current status is unverified.
