Our accomplishments in Q1 2004 are a testament to our continued commitment to our shareholders, customers, and employees.”
Chief Financial Officer Jack Pearlstein added, “Given the strong first quarter operating performance and our immediately accretive acquisition of UTA, we have been able to raise our forward guidance substantially since the earnings call in February.”

computer network for several thousand users and will manage a 24x7 Network Operations Center.
• Defense Department customer contract – DigitalNet will provide information security services and solutions using leading edge technology to include secure, XTS-based network guards.

Subsequent Events
On April 1, 2004, the Company completed its acquisition of User Technology Associates, Inc. (“UTA”), an Arlington, VA based federal information technology services provider, for $50.0 million in cash.

The Company’s guidance includes the results from the UTA acquisition, but excludes the results from any subsequent acquisitions.

Due to the forward looking nature of the projections of revenue, net income and diluted earnings on an as adjusted basis, information to reconcile such non-GAAP financial measures to the GAAP measures is not available without unreasonable effort.

(1) Revenues, as adjusted, represent revenues, as reported, less revenues derived from our NASA CSOC contract. Because our performance under the NASA CSOC contract ended on March 31, 2004, management believes that revenues, as adjusted, presents investors with a more meaningful depiction of our ongoing business. A reconciliation of revenues, as reported, to revenues, as adjusted, is as follows (dollars in thousands):

Revenues, as adjusted | | $ | 67,475 | | $ | 77,503 | |
(2) EBITDA is defined as net income as reported, plus interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization. Our method of computation may or may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. EBITDA is presented because we believe EBITDA is a meaningful indicator that can be used by investors to analyze and compare our operating performance to the operating performance of other companies. However, EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to net income as determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States as an indicator of operating performance or as an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. A reconciliation of net income as reported, to EBITDA is as follows (dollars in thousands):
| | Three months ended March 31, | |

Amortization | | 2,649 | | 1,881 | |
EBITDA | | $ | 9,602 | | $ | 12,811 | |
(3) EBITDA, as adjusted, represents EBITDA as set forth above, less gross profit associated our NASA CSOC contract and acquisition and related expenses, plus certain stock-based compensation. Our method of computation may or may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. EBITDA, as adjusted, should not be construed as either an alternative to net income, as determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States as an indicator of operating performance or as an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. Gross profit associated with our NASA CSOC contract represents the amount by which revenues associated with this contract exceed the costs of revenues associated with this contract. Because our performance under the NASA CSOC contract ended on March 31, 2004, management believes that EBITDA, as adjusted, presents investors with a more meaningful depiction of our ongoing business. In addition, we have excluded acquisition and related expenses from EBITDA, as adjusted, because management believes that the benefit for lease costs included in acquisition and related expenses is non-recurring as it relates to transactions concurrent with the commencement of substantive operations and the acquisition of our predecessor. We have also excluded certain stock-based compensation from EBITDA, as adjusted, because these charges are non-recurring and related to common stock issued in conjunction with the formation of the Company and the acquisition of our predecessor. Management believes that such presentation provides a more meaningful depiction of our ongoing business. A reconciliation of EBITDA to EBITDA, as adjusted, is as follows (dollars in thousands):

(4) Net income, as adjusted, represents net income, as reported, less gross profit, associated with our NASA CSOC contract and acquisition and related expenses, plus certain stock-based compensation, amortization of intangibles and interest related to debt retired with the proceeds of the IPO. Our method of computation may or may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. Net income, as adjusted, should not be construed as an alternative to net income, as determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Gross profit associated with our NASA CSOC contract represents the amount by which revenues associated with this contract exceeds the costs of revenues associated with this contract. Because our performance under the NASA CSOC contract ended on March 31, 2004, management believes that net income, as adjusted, presents investors with a more meaningful depiction of our ongoing business. In addition, we have excluded acquisition and related expenses from net income, as adjusted, because management believes that the benefit for lease costs included in acquisition and related expenses is non-recurring as it relates to transactions concurrent with the commencement of substantive operations and the acquisition of our predecessor. We have also excluded certain stock-based compensation from net income, as adjusted, because these charges are non-recurring and related to common stock issued in conjunction with the formation of the Company and the acquisition of our predecessor. We have also excluded amortization of intangibles from net income, as adjusted, because these expenses relate to the acquisition of our predecessor which was the formative transaction that commenced the substantive operations of our company, and management believes that such presentation provides a more meaningful comparison of our operating performance with the operating performance of other companies. We have also excluded interest expense related to debt retired with the proceeds of the IPO or the sale of 9% senior notes because such elimination reflects the effect of our current capital structure after consummation of the 2003 refinancing transactions. A reconciliation of net income to net income, as adjusted, is as follows (dollars in thousands):
| | Three months ended March 31, | |
| | 2003 | | 2004 | |

Net income, as reported | | $ | 354 | | $ | 4,626 | |

Net income, as adjusted | | $ | 4,145 | | $ | 4,871 | |
(5) The diluted weighted average common shares outstanding, as adjusted, reflects the following: a) shares of common stock issued in connection with the IPO, as if the offering was consummated on January 1, 2003, b) shares of common stock issued in connection with the conversion of the Class A Preferred Stock, including accrued dividends, upon the consummation of the IPO, as if the shares were issued on January 1, 2003, c) shares of carried stock, reserved stock, and restricted stock that vested upon the IPO with assumed vesting on January 1, 2003, and d) the treasury stock effect of warrants to purchase 94,868 shares of common stock. We have presented diluted weighted average common shares outstanding, as adjusted, to show the effect on earnings per share of the Company’s current capital structure after consummation of the refinancing transactions related to the IPO and the sale of 9% senior notes due 2010. A reconciliation of the historical diluted weighted average common shares outstanding to the diluted weighted average common shares outstanding, as adjusted, is as follows:
| | Three months ended March 31, | |
| | 2003 | | 2004 | |
Historical diluted weighted average common shares outstanding | | 5,501,593 | | 16,474,113 | |

Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding, as adjusted | | 16,384,933 | | 16,474,113 | |
(6) The diluted earnings per share, as adjusted, is computed by dividing net income, as adjusted, by the diluted weighted average common shares outstanding, as adjusted, during the period. The following details the computation of the diluted earnings per share, as adjusted, (dollars in thousands, except per share data):
