SAIC ANNOUNCES FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR FIRST

QUARTER FISCAL YEAR 2009

 

 

   

Revenues: Up 18 percent (14 percent internal) to $2.37 billion

   

Operating Income: Up 27 percent to $173 million

   

Diluted EPS from Continuing Operations: Up 39 percent to $0.25

(SAN DIEGO and MCLEAN, VA) – June 3, 2008 – SAIC, Inc. [NYSE: SAI], a leading provider of research, engineering, and technology services and solutions, today announced financial results for the first quarter of fiscal year 2009, which ended April 30, 2008.

“I am pleased that our company has started the new fiscal year with such strong performance,” said Ken Dahlberg, SAIC chairman and chief executive officer. “Revenue, profitability, and cash flow from operations all improved substantially compared to last year. Our dedicated employees continue to win new contracts and help solve some of the world’s most critical problems in national security, energy and the environment, critical infrastructure, and health. Based on our view of the funding environment, we believe that we are well positioned to achieve our financial goals for fiscal year 2009.”

Summary Operating Results

Revenues for the quarter were $2.37 billion, up 18 percent from $2.01 billion in the first quarter of fiscal year 2008. Internal, or non-acquisition, growth represented 14 percentage points of the consolidated growth for the quarter. Key drivers of internal growth for the quarter included new and expanding programs in the intelligence and defense markets, including systems integration and logistics support activities for mine resistant ambush protected (MRAP) vehicles.

Operating income for the quarter was $173 million (7.3 percent of revenue), up 27 percent from $136 million (6.8 percent of revenue) in the first quarter of fiscal year 2008. Growth in quarterly operating margin percentage was driven by improved contract fees rates and relatively stable overhead costs more efficiently absorbed over a higher revenue base.

Income from continuing operations for the quarter was $104 million, up 39 percent from $75 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2008. In addition to the increase in operating income, income from continuing operations benefited by $8 million from other income, including income from joint venture activities and a gain on the sale of two venture capital portfolio investments.

Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations for the quarter were $0.25, up 39 percent from $0.18 in the first quarter of fiscal year 2008, driven by the increase in income from continuing operations and a lower share count compared to the prior year. The diluted share count for the quarter was 413 million, down 1 percent from 418 million in the first quarter of fiscal year 2008, due primarily to share repurchases made over the course of fiscal year 2008 and continuing into the first quarter of fiscal year 2009. Diluted earnings per share, which include discontinued operations, were $0.24 for the quarter, up 26 percent from $0.19 in the first quarter of fiscal year 2008.

Cash Generation and Capital Deployment

Cash flow from operations for the quarter was $13 million, compared to a use of $129 million of cash flow in support of operations during the first quarter of fiscal year 2008. The year-over-year cash flow improvement was driven by maintaining days sales outstanding (DSO) for the quarter at 73 days and returning to more normative payables performance. In general, cash flow from operations is lowest in the first quarter as the company pays its annual bonuses in this period.

During the quarter the company used $135 million to fund the acquisition of Icon Systems, Inc. and repaid at maturity $100 million of 6.75% notes payable. In addition, the company used $259 million to repurchase approximately 14 million shares, including 12 million shares under the 40 million share stock repurchase program and the remainder in recurring repurchases from employees in settlement of withholding taxes associated with stock option exercises and vesting events. Whether any future repurchases are made and the timing and actual number of shares repurchased under the stock repurchase program will depend on a variety of factors, including share price, corporate capital requirements, and other market conditions. As of April 30, 2008, the company had $662 million in cash and cash equivalents and $1.1 billion in long-term debt.

Mark Sopp, SAIC chief financial officer commented, “Our core business continued its strong momentum with superb top-line growth, significant new business wins, growing profitability, and well-managed working capital. Importantly, we deployed significant amounts of cash in share repurchases and the Icon Systems acquisition to better balance our capital structure and improve shareholder value.”

New Business Awards

Net new business bookings totaled $2.5 billion in the first quarter of the fiscal year, representing a book-to-bill ratio of 1.1. Net bookings are calculated as the current period ending backlog plus the current period’s revenue less prior period ending backlog and backlog obtained in acquisitions. No bookings value is assigned unless the company has received a signed contract for a priced statement of work.

Large, competitive definite delivery contracts received during the quarter include:

 

   

Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) Network Management. SAIC received three new prime contracts from LAUSD to provide comprehensive network management services to approximately 900 schools. All three single-award contracts have a three-year base period of performance and two one-year options. The total contract value of all three awards is more than $94 million if all options are exercised.

 

   

Information Technology (IT) Services for Commander, Naval Meteorology and Oceanography Command (CNMOC). Under a five-year, $48 million task order, SAIC will support IT operations and maintenance, manage and integrate complex systems and facilities, and help integrate multiple clients in a shared environment for the CNMOC at Stennis Space Center, Mississippi.

 

   

Joint Tactical Radio System (JTRS) Support. SAIC received a task order from the Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command to support the JTRS Joint Program Executive Office. Under the five-year, $42 million contract, SAIC will provide program management and engineering support services to assist the military in developing, producing and fielding the next generation of interoperable, digital, software-defined radios.

 

2


 

 

Relocatable VACIS® Inspection Systems for U.S. Army. SAIC received a delivery order from the U.S. Army for 30 Relocatable VACIS® inspection systems, which will help Army personnel search vehicles and cargo for weapons, explosives and other threats.

In addition, SAIC also won several indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contracts that are not included in the bookings total. The most notable IDIQ awards during the quarter were:

 

   

Chevron Master Services Agreement. SAIC was awarded a prime, follow-on contract to provide environmental engineering, management and consulting services to Chevron. Over the next five years, SAIC expects to receive $150 million in new assignments under this multiple-award master services agreement. Primary services will include environmental remediation, engineering design, modeling, risk assessment, and groundwater and compliance monitoring, with the potential to expand services into facility upgrades and information system support.

 

   

Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Office of Research and Development (ORD) Support. Under a seven-year, $139 million multiple-award blanket purchase agreement, SAIC will support ORD’s mission of identifying, understanding and meeting environmental challenges by providing comprehensive IT and research solutions.

 

   

U.S. Army Medical Research and Materiel Command (USAMRMC) Support Services. SAIC was awarded a five-year, $98 million multiple-award contract by the USAMRMC to provide scientific and business support services facilitating research and development program planning and to evaluate alternatives for organizational change.

The company’s backlog of signed business orders at the end of first quarter of fiscal year 2009 was $15.1 billion, of which $5.4 billion was funded. Compared to the first quarter of fiscal year 2008, total backlog increased 5 percent and funded backlog increased 15 percent. The negotiated unfunded backlog of $9.7 billion represents the estimated amount to be earned in the future from firm orders for which funding has not been appropriated or otherwise authorized and unexercised priced contract options. Negotiated unfunded backlog does not include any estimate of future expected task orders to be awarded under IDIQ or other master agreement contract vehicles.

Forward Guidance

In its March 25, 2008 earnings press release, the company warned that despite strong expected operating performance, reductions in market interest rates could cause the company to fall short of its long-term EPS growth rate goal in fiscal year 2009. Given the company’s strong operating performance in the first quarter, recent contract wins, and significant share repurchases, the company now expects to achieve all of its long-term financial goals in fiscal year 2009:

 

   

Internal revenue growth in the six percent to nine percent range;

 

   

Operating margin expansion of 20 to 30 basis points; and

 

   

EPS from continuing operations growth of 11 percent to 18 percent.
