CSC REPORTS SECOND QUARTER 2012 RESULTS
Strong Bookings, Stable Revenue, Goodwill Impairment Charge Recorded
FALLS CHURCH, Va., Nov. 9 – CSC (NYSE: CSC) today reported results for the second quarter of fiscal 2012 ended September 30, 2011.
The results are as follows:
| · | New business awards of $6.6 billion for the quarter resulted in a half year increase of 13% above last year. |
| · | Revenue increased by 1% to $3.97 billion from $3.94 billion in the year-ago quarter. |
| · | In the quarter, the Company recorded two significant non-cash charges arising from the annual goodwill impairment analysis and the previously disclosed claims settlement, resulting in an EPS of ($18.56). |
| Ø | The goodwill impairment charge arose from the Company’s annual test and the charge taken in the quarter was $2.69 billion, equivalent to ($18.21) EPS. |
| Ø | On August 24, 2011, the Company announced that it had reached an agreement in principle with the U.S. Government in a dispute of contract claims. The settlement was finalized in September resulting in a contract extension of approximately $1 billion and required the company to record a non-cash, pre-tax charge of $269 million which reduced EPS by $1.20. |
| · | Integration of the recently completed acquisition of iSOFT, including the conversion from IFRS to GAAP, reduced EPS by $0.09. |
| · | Excluding the impact of the two non cash charges and the iSOFT integration, pro forma EPS from continuing operations was $0.94 compared to as reported EPS of $1.05 for the previous year. |
| · | Pre-tax margin was -72.0% compared with 6.23% from the previous year. |
| · | Operating income margin was -1.89% which included the adverse impact of the U.S. Government settlement and the recently completed iSOFT acquisition. On a pro forma basis, operating income margin was 5.56% which compares to 7.75% for the prior year. |
| · | The Company’s cash position was impacted by the previously announced approximately $265 million refund of advanced payments to the NHS. Free cash flow for the quarter was negative $268 million, compared to last year’s free cash flow of $178 million. The cash payment of $277 million arising from the settlement with the U.S. Government was received in October and is therefore not reflected in the company’s second quarter financial results. |
New Business Awards
Across the three lines of business, new business awards for the second quarter were $6.6 billion. North American Public Sector (NPS) contributed $3.1 billion, MSS reported $2.6 billion, and Business Solutions & Services closed $0.9 billion of new business.
On a year-to-date basis, new business awards were approximately $8.9 billion compared to $7.9 billion in the previous year.
Revenue by Line of Business
For the quarter, revenue from BSS was $0.95 billion (an increase of 8.7% from the second quarter last year and 2.4% in constant currency). NPS revenue was $1.44 billion (down 4.8% from the second quarter last year and down 2.1% when adjusted for the settlement of disputed claims with the U.S. Government). MSS revenue was $1.62 billion (an increase of 2.4% from the second quarter of last year and a decline of 2.8% in constant currency).
Business Commentary
“The first half total bookings of $8.9 billion is encouraging and reflects the investment we have made in our sales organization,” said Michael W. Laphen, CSC Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. “I am encouraged with the direction of our commercial revenue in the quarter and although the NPS business continues to be impacted by the Federal budget uncertainty, I am comfortable with our relative position in this market. With respect to the bottom line, MSS is a turnaround story and as previously announced we have made several organization and process changes aimed at accelerating improvements. As stated above, we have taken a non-cash goodwill impairment charge resulting from our annual test which is normally conducted in our second quarter. In our estimation, a key contributor to this charge is the fact that our stock price has been under pressure of late as the result of several business and market uncertainties. During the quarter our equitable settlement with the US government was finalized, resulting in a $1 billion incremental contract value, a cash payment to the Company of $277 million and a non-cash pre-tax charge of $269 million.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The following tables reconcile operating income and free cash flow to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. CSC management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors regarding the Company’s financial condition and results of operations as they provide another measure of the Company’s profitability and ability to service its debt, and are considered important measures by financial analysts covering CSC and its peers. Management uses operating income to evaluate business unit financial performance and it is one of the measures used in assessing management performance. One of the limitations associated with the use of operating income (as compared to reported earnings) is that it does not reflect the complete financial results of the Company. CSC compensates for these limitations by providing reconciliation between operating income and income before taxes.

Note: Free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure and the Company's definition of such measure may differ from other companies. We define free cash flow as equal to the sum of (1) operating cash flows, (2) investing cash flows, excluding business acquisitions, dispositions and investments (including short-term investments and purchase or sale of available for sale securities), and (3) payments on capital leases and other long-term asset financings. Operating margin is defined as operating income as a percentage of revenue. Pre-tax margin is defined as income before taxes as a percentage of revenue.
