Falls Church, Va. — May 28, 2008 —DynCorp International Inc. (NYSE: DCP), a leading provider of specialized mission-critical technical services to civilian and military government agencies, today reports fiscal 2008 fourth quarter and fiscal 2008 full year financial results.
Fiscal 2008 Fourth Quarter Results
Revenue for the fiscal 2008 fourth quarter ended March 28, 2008 increased $20.6 million, or 3.7%, to $572.9 million, compared to revenue of $552.3 million for the fiscal 2007 fourth quarter. Revenue from the Government Services (GS) segment for the fourth quarter increased $17.6 million, or 4.9% over the comparable period in fiscal 2007. The higher GS revenue for the fourth quarter was attributable primarily to increased construction projects in Africa and Afghanistan. Revenue from the Maintenance and Technical Support Services (MTSS) segment increased $3.0 million, or 1.6% over the fiscal 2007 fourth quarter. The higher MTSS revenue was attributable to additional work associated with the Mine Resistant and Ambush Protected (MRAP) vehicle program and continued increases in support service levels for overhaul of aviation assets deployed primarily to Iraq and Afghanistan.
Operating income for the fiscal 2008 fourth quarter decreased 46.3% to $23.0 million, compared to operating income of $42.9 million for the fiscal 2007 fourth quarter. Operating margin for the fiscal 2008 fourth quarter was 4.0%, compared to operating margin of 7.8% in the fiscal 2007 fourth quarter. The decline in operating margin was primarily due to increased ongoing operating performance net of the recognition of $10.4 million in operating income related to claims on two aviation contracts during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007. In addition, in the first quarter of fiscal 2009, the Company received an adverse decision in a lawsuit brought by a former subcontractor, which the Company intends to appeal. Combined with an increase in other unrelated legal reserves, this resulted in a $12.5 million reduction in operating income. During the fourth quarter, our support of transition activities under the linguist and translation services contract awarded in February 2008 to Global Linguist Solutions (GLS), the Company’s majority-owned joint venture, did not result in additional revenue due to the protest filed by the incumbent contractor and an associated stop-work order issued by the customer. As a result, the Company’s fourth quarter operating income was negatively impacted by GLS losses totaling $6.7 million, including $3.3 million of minority interest-related losses.
Net income for the fiscal 2008 fourth quarter was $9.8 million, or $0.17 per share, compared to net income of $18.9 million, or $0.33 per share, for the comparable period in fiscal 2007. The decrease in 2008 fourth quarter net income was due to the decline in operating income, discussed above, offset by lower net interest costs in fiscal year 2008.
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) for the 2008 fourth quarter decreased to $39.6 million, or 6.9% of revenue, from $55.8 million, or 10.1% of revenue, for the comparable period in fiscal 2007. The reduction in EBITDA was primarily due to the decline in operating income, discussed above.
Fiscal 2008 Full Year Results
Revenue for the fiscal year ended March 28, 2008 increased by $57.5 million, or 2.8%, to $2.14 billion, compared to revenue of $2.08 billion for the Company’s fiscal year ended March 30, 2007. Of the $57.5 million increase, $26.1 million was attributable to the GS segment and $31.4 million was attributable to the MTSS segment.
Revenue from the GS segment for fiscal year 2008 increased 1.9% over fiscal year 2007 to $1.4 billion. The GS revenue growth was primarily driven by increased construction-management services in regions such as Africa and Afghanistan, and increases in drug-eradication services. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in the Company’s law-enforcement and security services due to the transition of Company operations in Iraq from leased facilities to customer-provided facilities during the fiscal year and the conclusion of contingency and logistics services provided after Hurricane Katrina in 2007.
Revenue from the MTSS segment for fiscal year 2008 increased 4.5% over fiscal year 2007 to $734.8 million. MTSS revenue growth was primarily driven by increases in support requirements associated with the Company’s Life Cycle Contractor Support programs, primarily for deployments in Iraq and Afghanistan, increased work with MRAP vehicles, and new threat management systems in the Company’s Aviation & Maintenance Services unit. The MTSS revenue increase was partially offset by a temporary decline in maintenance and repair services provided by the Company’s Field Service Operations, which resulted from longer deployment cycles for equipment in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Operating income for fiscal year 2008 increased 5.7% to $120.0 million, compared to operating income of $113.5 for the Company’s fiscal year 2007. This increase represents an operating margin of 5.6% as compared to an operating margin of 5.5% in fiscal year 2007. The increased operating income and operating margin reflect year-over-year revenue growth and improved cost of operations. These increases resulted primarily from: (i) strong contract performance combined with the elimination of non-recurring write-offs from contract losses in fiscal year 2007 in our Law Enforcement & Security services unit, (ii) non-recurring costs associated with severance expenses for certain former executives and bonus compensation related to the Company’s IPO from fiscal year 2007, and (iii) lower year-over-year depreciation and amortization. These increases were partially offset by the legal and GLS start-up costs discussed above.
Net income was $48.0 million in fiscal year 2008, compared to $27.0 million in fiscal year 2007. This net income increase of 77.5% was due to the elements positively impacting operating income discussed above, reduced net interest costs, increased affiliate income, and a lower effective tax rate. Earnings per share for fiscal year 2008 increased 71.4% to $0.84 per share from $0.49 per share in fiscal year 2007.
EBITDA in fiscal year 2008 increased 7.0% to $174.8 million, or 8.2% of revenue, compared to EBITDA of $163.4 million, or 7.8% of revenue, in fiscal year 2007. EBITDA growth was primarily driven by our improved operating income, discussed above, which was partially offset by legal and GLS startup costs totaling $15.9 million incurred during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2008.
Operating cash flow decreased 51.2% to $42.4 million in fiscal year 2008 compared to $86.8 million in fiscal year 2007. The decrease was driven by increases in working capital, primarily increased accounts receivable, offset by higher net income. Days sales outstanding (DSO) was 73 days at the end of fiscal year 2008, compared to 67 days at the end of fiscal year 2007.
Net debt, which is total debt less cash and cash equivalents, was $507.8 million on March 28, 2008, a reduction of $20.7 million year-over-year.
Backlog decreased 2.8% to $6.0 billion as of March 28, 2008. The decrease in backlog is primarily due to a general shift by government customers to Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contracts, which generally consist of short-term task orders that do not typically have as significant an impact on backlog as other contract vehicles.
Fiscal 2009 Guidance
The Company is issuing the following guidance for fiscal year 2009 ending April 3, 2009, based on its current backlog and management’s estimate of future contract awards. This guidance represents a significant increase from our fiscal year 2008 results primarily due to the estimated impact from the GLS operation.

Total backlog (2) | $ | 5,961 | $ | 6,132 | ||||
Estimated remaining contract value(3) | $ | 7,485 | $ | 8,991 |
(1) Backlog consists of orders and options under our contracts. We define contracted backlog as the estimated value of contract awards received from customers that have not been recognized as sales. Our backlog consists of funded and unfunded backlog. Funded backlog is based upon amounts actually appropriated by a customer for payment of goods and services less actual revenue recorded as of the measurement date under that appropriation. Unfunded backlog is the actual dollar value of unexercised contract options. Most of our U.S. government contracts allow the customer the option to extend the period of performance of a contract for a period of one or more years. These options may be exercised at the sole discretion of the customer. It has been our historical experience, however, that the customer has exercised contract options.
(2) As of March 28, 2008 and March 30, 2007, the backlog related to GLS was $3.5 billion and $3.3 billion, respectively, and is included in the table above.
(3)Estimated remaining contract value represents the aggregate contract revenue we estimate will be earned over the remaining life of certain contracts. When more than one company is awarded a contract for a given work requirement, we include in estimating remaining contract value only our estimate of the contract revenue we expect to earn over the remaining term of the contract. Funded backlog is based upon amounts actually appropriated by a customer for payment for goods and services. Because the U.S. federal government operates under annual appropriations, agencies of the U.S. federal government typically fund contracts on an incremental basis. Accordingly, the majority of the estimated remaining contract value is not funded backlog. Our estimated remaining contract value is based on our experience under contracts and we believe our estimates are reasonable. However, there can be no assurance that our existing contracts will result in actual revenue in any particular period or at all. These amounts could vary depending upon government policies, government budgets, and appropriations.
