ARLINGTON, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- CACI International Inc (NYSE: CACI), a leading information solutions and services provider to the federal government, announced results today for its third fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2017.

CEO Commentary and Outlook

Ken Asbury, CACI’s President and CEO, said, “Our third quarter results reflect excellent performance across the company with record revenue and contract awards as well as strong cash flow and net income. As a result, we are further raising our guidance for FY17, and remain confident we will meet our FY18 objectives of one to four percent organic growth above our addressable market and 10 to 30 basis points of margin improvement.”

Third Quarter Results

(in millions except per-share data)   Q3, FY17   Q3, FY16   % Change
Revenue   $1,086.4   $977.3   11.2%
Operating income   $67.3   $63.7   5.6%
Net income   $40.4   $34.1   18.3%
Diluted earnings per share   $1.61   $1.38   16.9%

Revenue for the third quarter of Fiscal Year 2017 (FY17) increased compared to the third quarter of Fiscal Year 2016 (FY16), driven primarily by revenue of $88 million from the NSS acquisition. The increase in operating income was due to the NSS contribution, program performance, and the absence of acquisition-related expenses which occurred in the third quarter of FY16. These were partially offset by pre-tax expenses of $3.1 million related to facility reductions and $4.7 million of long-term incentive compensation expense. The increase in net income was due to the factors noted above and research and development (R&D) tax credits for FY16 and FY17 of $3.9 million. Cash provided by operations in the quarter was $81.1 million.

Third Quarter Awards, Contract Funding Orders, and Other Highlights

Our contract awards in the quarter were $1.4 billion which excludes ceiling values of multi-award indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contracts. Approximately 40 percent of our awards were for new business.

Key awards during the quarter included:

  • A $190 million task order to support the Department of Defense Joint Service Provider (JSP) Information Technology Service Delivery Support Requirement program. The three-year, six-month task order, originally won under the Alliant contract vehicle in the fourth quarter of CACI’s Fiscal Year 2016, represents new business in the company's Enterprise IT market area.
  • A $48 million prime contract to provide IT support services for the Army Architecture, Operations, Networks, and Space Directorate of the U.S. Army Chief Information Officer/G-6. The five-year award represents new business in CACI’s Enterprise IT market area.
  • A prime position on a $47 million multiple-award IDIQ to support the U.S. Army Night Vision and Electronic Sensors Directorate’s development and delivery of solutions to tactical commands worldwide. The two-year contract represents new work for CACI in its Surveillance and Reconnaissance market area.
  • Approximately $102 million in awards on classified contracts with federal government customers. The work represents business primarily in CACI’s Intelligence Services, Intelligence Systems and Support, and Cyber Security market areas.

Contract funding orders in the third quarter were $1.1 billion. Our total backlog at March 31, 2017 was $11.8 billion compared with $11.0 billion at the end of the fourth quarter of FY16. Funded backlog at March 31, 2017 was $2.0 billion compared with $2.3 billion at June 30, 2016.

Other highlights in the quarter included:

  • Combating Asymmetric Threats: Offset Strategies to Prevail Against Asymmetric Threats, a report from the ninth symposium in the Asymmetric Threat symposia series co-sponsored by CACI, the Association of Old Crows, and the Center for Security Policy was released. Summarizing discussions and comments from the symposium, the report considers how offset strategies position the U.S. to prevail against resurging global power competition, multiregional conflicts, and cross-domain challenges.

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, and Adjusted Net Income, all of which are defined as non-GAAP measures, as important indicators of performance, consistent with the manner in which management measures and forecasts the Company’s performance. Adjusted EBITDA is a commonly used non-GAAP measure when comparing our results with those of other companies. We define Adjusted EBITDA as GAAP net income plus net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and earnout adjustments. We consider Adjusted EBITDA to be a useful metric for management and investors to evaluate and compare the ongoing operating performance of our business on a consistent basis across reporting periods, as it eliminates the effect of non-cash items such as depreciation of tangible assets, amortization of intangible assets primarily recognized in business combinations, as well as the effect of earnout gains and losses, which we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA margin is adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue. We define Adjusted Net Income as GAAP net income plus stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization, amortization of financing costs, and earnout adjustments, net of related tax effects. We believe Adjusted Net Income is an important measure of long-term value and is used by investors to measure our performance. This measure assists management and investors in further understanding our results and trends from period-to-period by removing certain non-cash items. 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.
