DXC Technology Company disclosed it might have violated U.S. sanctions and export controls against Russia in its sale of a Russian subsidiary.
The Virginia-based IT services company stated Friday in a 10-K filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission it voluntarily disclosed the potential violations to the Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) and Commerce Department’s Bureau of Industry and Security in August.
The company sold Luxoft’s Russia business to IBS Holding in April 2022 as part of its exit from the country following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. Luxoft is a global digital and engineering firm DXC Technology purchased in 2019.
