Contract awards of $1.2 billion

ARLINGTON, Va.--()--CACI International Inc (NYSE MKT: CACI), a leading information solutions and services provider to the federal government, announced results today for its third fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2016.

CEO Commentary and Outlook

Ken Asbury, CACI’s President and CEO, said, “I am quite pleased with our performance this quarter. Despite delays in the pace and timing of contract awards, our team delivered revenue and net income that were higher year-over-year, due to strong contract performance and a significant contribution from our acquisition of L-3’s National Security Solutions (NSS) business. Cash flow, contract awards and contract funding orders also were all strong. The integration of NSS, our largest acquisition to-date, is in excellent shape and the added value of their enterprise IT capabilities is exceeding our expectations. We are confident that our market-focused strategy, our robust pipeline of opportunities and our strategic M&A program will continue to deliver long-term value to our customers and shareholders.”

Third Quarter Results

                   
(in millions except per-share data)     Q3, FY16     Q3, FY15     % Change
Revenue     $977.3     $817.8     19.5%
Operating income     $63.7     $53.7     18.5%
Net income attributable to CACI     $34.0     $29.0     17.2%
Diluted earnings per share     $1.38     $1.18     16.3%
           

Revenue for the third quarter of Fiscal Year 2016 (FY 16) increased compared to the third quarter of Fiscal Year 2015 (FY 15) driven by acquired revenue from the acquisition of National Security Systems (NSS). The higher operating income was due to the contribution of the NSS acquisition and contract performance, partially offset by approximately $9 million of various acquisition-related expenses. The increase in net income was due to the factors noted above as well as a lower effective tax rate in the quarter. Cash provided by operations in the quarter was $53.6 million.

During our third quarter, NSS generated $171.9 million of revenue and $5.6 million of net income. NSS’s net income includes $1.7 million of acquisition-related intangible amortization. Approximately $3.2 million of the $9 million of pre-tax acquisition expenses recognized in the quarter are reflected in the NSS performance.

Third Quarter Awards, Contract Funding Orders, and Other Highlights

Our awards in the quarter were $1.2 billion, excluding the ceiling values of indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contracts on which we were awarded a prime position. Approximately 25 percent of our awards in the quarter were for new business. Key awards during the quarter included:

  • A prime position on a $22.3 billion ten-year, multiple award, IDIQ contract to provide information technology services and solutions to the Department of Veterans Affairs. This contract represents growth and continuing work in our Health market area.
  • A prime position on an $809 million five-year, multiple award, IDIQ contract to support business systems at the Naval Supply Systems Command Business Systems Center. This contract represents new work in our Business Systems market area.
  • A $180 million five-year contract to provide Joint Geospatial Analytic Support Services to U.S. Special Operations Command. This contract represents new work in our Intelligence Services market area. This award was received in the second quarter of FY15 with its protest resolved during our third quarter of FY16.

Contract funding orders in the third quarter were a record $1.3 billion. Our total backlog at March 31, 2016 was a record $12.9 billion, an increase of 33.9 percent, compared with $9.7 billion at the end of the third quarter of FY15. Funded backlog at March 31, 2016 was a record $2.7 billion, an increase of 33.0 percent, compared with $2.1 billion at March 31, 2015. Our backlog includes $2.3 billion of pre-closing backlog from the acquisition of NSS, of which $0.4 billion was funded.

Reconciliation of Net Income to Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation
and Amortization (EBITDA) and to Adjusted Net Income
(Unaudited)
 

The Company views Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin, Adjusted Net Income and Diluted Adjusted Earnings Per Share as important indicators of performance, consistent with the manner in which management measures and forecasts the Company’s performance.   EBITDA is a commonly used non-GAAP measure when comparing our results with those of other companies.  We believe Adjusted Net Income is a significant driver of long-term value and is used by investors to measure our performance.  This measure in particular assists readers in further understanding our results and trends from period-to-period by removing certain non-cash items that do not impact the cash flow performance of our business.  Adjusted EBITDA is defined by us as GAAP net income attributable to CACI plus net interest expense, income taxes, and depreciation, amortization and earnout adjustments.  Adjusted EBITDA margin is adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue.  Adjusted Net Income is defined by us as GAAP net income attributable to CACI plus stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization, amortization of financing costs, and non-cash interest expense net of related tax effects.  Diluted Adjusted Earnings Per Share is Adjusted Net Income divided by diluted weighted-average shares, as reported.  Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Net Income as defined by us may not be computed in the same manner as similarly titled measures used by other companies.  These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
