ANALEX ANNOUNCES 1st QUARTER 2005 FINANCIAL RESULTS
Revenue up 71%; Operating Income up 226%
Alexandria, VA, April 27, 2005 –ANALEX CORPORATION (Amex: NLX), a leading provider of mission-critical professional services to federal government clients, today reported first quarter 2005 revenue of $28.4 million, a 71% increase over first quarter 2004 revenue of $16.6 million. Operating income, as measured by earnings before interest and taxes or EBIT, increased to $2 million, a 226% increase over 2004.
This increase in revenue for the quarter is attributable to strong organic growth as well as the acquisition of BAI in May 2004. Excluding the contribution of the BAI acquisition, organic revenue growth for the quarter was 18% as compared to the first quarter 2004. Operating income, or earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT), increased 226% to $2 million as compared to the first quarter of 2004, while earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) increased by 220%, from $0.8 million to $2.6 million. EBITDA margins increased to 9.2% from 4.9% last year. The 18% revenue growth, performance of the BAI acquisition and cost containment all contributed to the significant increase in EBITDA margins.
These positive results are a reflection of the underlying strength of Analex’s core business as well as the synergies realized from the BAI acquisition. In the quarter, the company experienced certain non-cash charges of $1.4 million associated with acquisition financing activities which caused negative net income to the common stockholders. The net loss for the quarter was ($647,300), or ($0.04) per share of common stock representing a 45% improvement from a net loss of $1.2 million or ($0.09) per share on a fully-diluted basis in 2004.
Sterling Phillips, Analex’s Chairman and CEO, stated, “Analex’s first quarter results reflect the successful execution of our business strategy. Strong organic growth and the BAI acquisition improved the top line while simultaneously contributing to improvement in our margins and earnings. Demand for our services continues to be strong based upon our past performance and our commitment to providing our clients with superior quality and value. We are confident that our recent acquisition of ComGlobal will further expand our presence and capabilities in the federal marketplace.”
Cash flow from operations improved significantly in the quarter. Net cash provided by operations was $2.9 million as compared to net cash used of $1.3 million for the same period in 2004. Bank debt was $3.9 million at March 31, 2005, a reduction of $2.7 million from December 31, 2004. Analex remains compliant with the financial covenant requirements of its credit facility.
