QUARTER FISCAL YEAR 2004
| · | Revenue: $160 Million, up 37% from Third Quarter Fiscal Year 2003 |
| · | Net Income: $10.2 Million, up 42% from Third Quarter Fiscal Year 2003 |
| · | Raising Fiscal Year 2004 Guidance and Introducing Fiscal Year 2005 Guidance |
FAIRFAX, Va. – May 3, 2004 – SRA International, Inc. (NYSE: SRX), a leading provider of information technology services and solutions to the federal government, today announced operating results for the third quarter of fiscal year 2004, which ended March 31, 2004.
Revenue for the quarter increased 37% from $116.4 million in the March 2003 quarter to $160.0 million. Operating income for the quarter increased 41% from $11.5 million in the March 2003 quarter to $16.2 million. Operating income margin increased from 9.9% in the March 2003 quarter to 10.1%. Net income for the quarter increased 42% from $7.2 million (6.2% of revenue) in the March 2003 quarter to $10.2 million (6.4% of revenue).
Diluted earnings per share for the quarter increased 23% from $0.30 in the March 2003 quarter to $0.37. However, the diluted weighted average share count for the quarter increased 15%, from 23.8 million shares in the March 2003 quarter to 27.5 million shares, primarily as a result of the company’s sale of 2.5 million shares in a follow-on offering in June 2003. Without the additional shares, diluted earnings per share increased approximately 37% year-over-year. A reconciliation between this non-GAAP financial measure and reported EPS is provided as an attachment to this press release.
During the quarter, the Company acquired ORION Scientific Systems (ORION), a growing and profitable provider of specialized counterintelligence, counterterrorism, and law enforcement services. The ORION acquisition closed on January 30, 2004.
Ernst Volgenau, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of SRA, said, “This was another strong quarter. We continued to deliver robust organic growth, expand our margins, and build our backlog of business. We are leveraging core SRA and ORION capabilities to strengthen our position with the Department of Homeland Security and other important customers.”
Chief Financial Officer Stephen Hughes added, “We are very pleased that we were able to improve operating and net margins. Days sales outstanding improved again by two days in the March quarter to 76 from 78 in the previous quarter. We closed the quarter with $165.4 million of cash and cash equivalents and no debt. As expected, the ORION acquisition was accretive to earnings in the quarter.”
New Business Awards
During the third quarter, SRA won new business with contract value of $259 million. Backlog of signed business orders increased by $91 million during the quarter to $2.0 billion. A description follows of three important wins:
Exhibit 99.1
| · | SRA won a re-competition to provide conflict prevention and resolution services to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Office of General Counsel. The five-year contract has an estimated value of $65 million if all options are exercised, representing a substantial increase in value above the previous contract. Since 1999, SRA has provided EPA with facilitation, consensus building, case mediation and arbitration, and other alternative dispute resolution services for community issues, national environmental policy conflicts, and workplace disputes. |
| · | SRA received $11.5 million in task orders supporting research in information warfare and intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance systems on its $44.7 million Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contract with the Air Force Research Laboratory announced last quarter. |
| · | SRA was awarded a 12-month follow-on task order to provide security engineering, certification, and accreditation support to the Defense Information Systems Agency Public-Key Enabled, or PKE, Applications. The $5.5 million contract extends the Company’s previous PKE work to the area of Network Centric Enterprise Services and the Global Information Grid. |

These amounts represent management’s current expectations about the Company’s future financial performance, based on information available at this time.
