| • | | Net sales increased 1% to $3.2 billion |

NEW YORK, April 25, 2013 – L-3 Communications Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: LLL) today reported diluted earnings per share (diluted EPS) from continuing operations of $2.11 for the quarter ended March 29, 2013 (2013 first quarter), an increase of 13%, compared to $1.86 for the quarter ended March 30, 2012 (2012 first quarter). The 2013 first quarter included a $10 million ($0.11 per diluted share) tax benefit for the retroactive reinstatement of the U.S. Federal research and experimentation tax credit related to the 2012 tax year. Net sales of $3.2 billion for the 2013 first quarter increased by 1% compared to the 2012 first quarter.
“We started off the year with a solid first quarter, underscored by strong results of operations and cash flows in spite of the ongoing challenges in the defense industry. International and commercial sales rose 18% offsetting declines in our U.S. military business, demonstrating that we are successfully executing on our strategy to grow international and commercial sales and expand market share,” said Michael T. Strianese, chairman, president and chief executive officer. “The Sequester cuts to the U.S. Defense budget became effective on March 1st, and while we have not yet experienced major impacts, we are seeing some delays and reduced orders, contract award deferrals and staffing reductions at select customers. We continue to closely monitor the Sequester situation and are prepared to effectively manage it as it evolves.”
“We remain committed to delivering shareholder value, which included repurchasing $122 million of our common stock and paying dividends of $52 million during the quarter. At the same time, we continue to focus on increasing the efficiency of our operations, investing in R&D to address customer priorities and pursuing acquisition opportunities that strengthen and expand our business and customer base.”
Key contract wins for the quarter included: (1) a competitively won, five-year contract to provide maintenance and sustainment services for U.S. Army rotary wing aircraft, (2) a contract to build two UH-60M Operational Flight Trainers (OFT) for the Taiwan Army, L-3’s first export sale of our rotary wing OFT product line, (3) new business to provide submarine photonic mast and valve systems for an international naval customer, (4) additional international business wins for personnel, baggage and cargo screening systems and an order for eXaminer checked baggage screening systems from the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), and (5) a competitively won contract to provide systems and software sustainment, engineering services support and end-user training for the U.S. Army Reserve.

First Quarter Results of Operations: For the 2013 first quarter, consolidated net sales of $3.2 billion increased $25 million, or 1%, compared to the 2012 first quarter. Sales growth primarily in the Electronic Systems segment was partially offset by lower sales from the National Security Solutions (NSS) segment. Acquired businesses(1), which are all included in the Electronic Systems segment, added $48 million to net sales in the 2013 first quarter. Net sales to commercial and international government end customers increased 18%, or $122 million, including $41 million from acquired businesses. These sales increased to $807 million, or 25% of 2013 first quarter net sales, compared to $685 million, or 22% of 2012 first quarter net sales.
Operating income for the 2013 first quarter of $313 million decreased $12 million, or 4%, as compared to the 2012 first quarter. Operating income as a percentage of sales (operating margin) decreased by 50 basis points to 9.8% for the 2013 first quarter compared to 10.3% for the 2012 first quarter. The decrease in operating margin is primarily due to sales mix changes. In addition, higher pension expense of $4 million ($3 million after income tax, or $0.03 per diluted share) reduced operating margin by 10 basis points. See segment results below for additional discussion of sales and operating margin trends.
Interest expense declined by $2 million, as lower outstanding debt reduced interest expense by $8 million, which was partially offset by $6 million of interest expense that was allocated to discontinued operations in the 2012 first quarter.
The effective tax rate for the 2013 first quarter decreased to 28.9% from 33.9% for the same period last year. The decrease is due to a $12 million tax benefit for the retroactive reinstatement in January 2013 of the U.S. Federal research and experimentation tax credit for all of 2012 and 2013, of which $10 million ($0.11 per diluted share) relates to the 2012 benefit.
Net income from continuing operations attributable to L-3 in the 2013 first quarter increased 4% to $193 million compared to the 2012 first quarter, and diluted EPS from continuing operations increased 13% to $2.11 from $1.86. Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding for the 2013 first quarter declined by 9% compared to the 2012 first quarter primarily due to repurchases of L-3 common stock.
Orders: Funded orders for the 2013 first quarter were $2.9 billion compared to $3.7 billion for the 2012 first quarter. Funded backlog declined 3% to $10.5 billion at March 29, 2013, compared to $10.9 billion at December 31, 2012.
Cash flow and cash returned to shareholders: Net cash from operating activities from continuing operations was $146 million for the 2013 first quarter, compared to $120 million for the 2012 first quarter. The table below summarizes the cash returned to shareholders during the 2013 first quarter compared to the 2012 first quarter.
| (1) | Net sales from acquired businesses are comprised of (i) net sales from business acquisitions that are included in L-3’s actual results for less than 12 months, less (ii) net sales from business and product line divestitures that are included in L-3’s actual results for the 12 months prior to the divestitures. |

| (1) | Free cash flow is defined as net cash from operating activities less net capital expenditures (capital expenditures less cash proceeds from dispositions of property, plant and equipment) plus income tax payments attributable to discontinued operations. Free cash flow represents cash generated after paying for interest on borrowings, income taxes, pension benefit contributions, capital expenditures and changes in working capital, but before repaying principal amount of outstanding debt, paying cash dividends on common stock, repurchasing shares of our common stock, investing cash to acquire businesses, and making other strategic investments. Thus, a key assumption underlying free cash flow is that the company will be able to refinance its existing debt. Because of this assumption, free cash flow is not a measure that should be relied upon to represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures. |

C3ISR net sales for the 2013 first quarter increased by $2 million compared to the 2012 first quarter. Sales increased by $68 million for ISR Systems primarily due to small ISR aircraft sales to the Department of Defense (DoD) and higher volume for foreign military customers. These increases were partially offset by a $66 million decrease in sales primarily for networked communication systems due to: (1) declining U.S. Army demand for remote video terminals and (2) lower volume for manned and unmanned platforms for DoD customers as the production work for certain contracts near completion, including contracts for vehicle mounted satellite communication ground stations and datalinks for unmanned aircraft.
C3ISR operating income for the 2013 first quarter decreased by $1 million, or 1%, compared to the 2012 first quarter. Operating margin decreased by 20 basis points to 10.3%. Operating margin declined by 200 basis points due to higher development and material costs for networked communication systems and 50 basis points due to higher pension expense of $4 million. These decreases were partially offset primarily by favorable sales mix changes at ISR Systems.

Electronic Systems net sales for the 2013 first quarter increased by $37 million, or 3%, compared to the 2012 first quarter. Sales increased: (1) $49 million for Simulation & Training, $29 million due to the Link U.K. acquisition and $20 million primarily due to increased deliveries of U.S. Army rotary wing training systems for the Flight School XXI program and upgrades for F/A-18 trainers, (2) $16 million for Precision Engagement primarily due to increased deliveries of ordnance products, (3) $14 million for Microwave Products primarily
| | |
| L-3 Announces Results for the 2013 First Quarter | | Page 4 |
due to increased deliveries of mobile and ground-based satellite communication systems for the U.S. military, and (4) $11 million for Marine Services primarily due to volume for the landing craft air cushion vehicle service life extension program. These increases were partially offset by sales decreases of: (1) $12 million for Sensor Systems ($44 million of lower volume primarily for airborne EO/IR turrets for the Persistent Threat Detection System contract due to the U.S. military troop drawdown in Afghanistan, partially offset by $18 million in increased volume for force protection products to a foreign ministry of defense and sales of $14 million from the L-3 KEO acquisition), (2) $26 million for Power & Control Systems primarily due to lower demand for commercial shipbuilding products, and (3) $15 million for Space & Propulsion Systems primarily due to certain funding constraints for the Missile Defense Agency’s air-launched target programs.
Electronic Systems operating income for the 2013 first quarter decreased by $8 million, or 5%, compared to the 2012 first quarter. Operating margin decreased by 90 basis points to 10.6%. Operating margin declined by 190 basis points due to the decreases in sales for Sensor Systems, Power & Control Systems and Space & Propulsion Systems discussed above and 70 basis points primarily due to sales mix changes. These decreases were partially offset by 170 basis points due to improved contract performance adjustments during the 2013 first quarter compared to the 2012 first quarter across several business areas, including Microwave Products and Space & Propulsion Systems.

Operating margin | | | 9.3 | % | | | 10.1 | % | | | (80 | ) bpts |
P&LS net sales for the 2013 first quarter increased by $3 million compared to the 2012 first quarter. Platform Solutions sales increased by $56 million, which was nearly fully offset by a sales decline of $53 million for Logistics Solutions. The Platform Solutions sales increase was primarily due to increased volume for aircraft maintenance for the Canadian Department of National Defence, EC-130 aircraft for the U.S. Air Force (USAF), international head-of-state aircraft modifications, and the Australia C-27J. The decrease in Logistics Solutions was primarily due to the competitive loss of a task order for U.S. Army contract field team support services in Southwest Asia, which was completed in 2012.
P&LS operating income for the 2013 first quarter decreased by $5 million, or 8%, compared to the 2012 first quarter. Operating margin declined by 80 basis points to 9.3% primarily due to lower margin sales mix for Platform Solutions.

NSS net sales for the 2013 first quarter decreased by $18 million, or 5%, compared to the 2012 first quarter primarily due to less demand for U.S. Special Operations Command information technology (IT) support services, as our previous single-award contract converted to several multiple-award contracts which reduced our work share.
NSS operating income for the 2013 first quarter increased by $2 million, or 9%, compared to the 2012 first quarter. Operating margin increased by 80 basis points to 6.2%. Operating margin increased by 60 basis points due to higher margin sales mix and 20 basis points primarily due to higher award fees on an IT operation and maintenance support contract.

All financial guidance amounts, including the possible impact of the Sequestration cuts to the DoD budget, are estimates subject to change in the future, including as a result of matters discussed under the “Forward-Looking Statements” cautionary language beginning on page 6 and the company undertakes no duty to update its guidance.

The 2013 Guidance does not include any impact of the Sequestration cuts to the DoD budgets mandated by the Budget Control Act of 2011, which became effective on March 1, 2013. Presently, there is insufficient information to determine the full effect that the Sequestration cuts will have on our 2013 financial performance. However, based on our preliminary assessment, we believe the Sequestration cuts could reduce our 2013 Guidance by amounts up to: $500 million for net sales, 30 basis points for operating margin, $0.65 for diluted EPS, and $80 million for free cash flow. These potential Sequester reductions to our 2013 financial guidance exclude any potential non-cash goodwill impairment charges that could result from the Sequester or other DoD budget cuts.
