FAIRFAX, Va. – November 7, 2007 – SRA International, Inc. (NYSE: SRX), a leading provider of technology and strategic consulting services and solutions to federal government organizations, today announced operating results for the first quarter of fiscal year 2008, which ended September 30, 2007.
Revenue for the quarter was $364.1 million, up 20% from $304.0 million in the September 2006 quarter. Operating income for the quarter was $29.9 million, for an operating margin of 8.2%. Net income was $18.5 million, for a net margin of 5.1%. Diluted earnings per share for the quarter were $0.31, up $0.05 year over year.
These first quarter financial results include the effect of the Constella Group acquisition as of August 9, 2007. Constella contributed about $30 million of revenue and was accretive to earnings per share.
SRA President and CEO Stan Sloane said, “We’re pleased to see solid returns on our marketing and sales investments. Despite the challenging market conditions, we’ve bolstered our backlog with a number of valuable wins, and we’ve continued to devote more resources to the next wave of bid opportunities.”
CFO and Executive Vice President for Operations Stephen Hughes added, “One of the tenets of our strategic plan is to drive G&A cost efficiencies to increase our investment in business and employee development and to expand margins, and we were highly successful on those fronts in the quarter. Cash flows were also strong as we held Days Sales Outstanding to 69 days, equaling our best figure to date.”
New Business Awards
The Company won new business in the first quarter with potential value of $829 million, if all options are exercised. As of September 30, 2007, the Company’s backlog of signed business orders was $4.0 billion, an increase of 10% year over year. Constella’s contract backlog is included in that total.
Major highlights of recent competitive contract awards include:
• | | U.S. Navy, Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command (SPAWAR). The Navy awarded SRA a five-year, $80 million task order to provide program and acquisition management support to its Networks, Information Assurance and Enterprise Services Program Office in San Diego. |
• | | Department of Justice. SRA won a three-year, $59 million task order to continue implementing an enterprise-wide infrastructure architecture for the Justice Department. |
| Services include systems engineering, network management, software development and information assurance. |
• | | Small Business Administration (SBA), Disaster Credit Management System (DCMS). SRA was awarded a four-year, $30 million task order to host the DCMS, a Web-enabled loan processing system that the Company has had a separate contract to operate and maintain since 2002. This new task order involves program management and managed network, security, storage and disaster recovery services for the system. |
• | | Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Sector Specific Agency Executive Management Office (SSA EMO). DHS awarded SRA a five-year, $25 million task order to provide programmatic and technical support to the SSA EMO, which coordinates national infrastructure protection programs. |
• | | U.S. Central Command (USCENTCOM), Joint Intelligence Operations Center. SRA won a 3.5-year, $22 million task order to provide intelligence planning and analysis support to USCENTCOM. |
SRA was also awarded several multiple-award, indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity (ID/IQ) contracts in the September quarter. ID/IQ wins are not included in the Company’s quarterly bookings figure, but they provide a solid foundation for future growth. The largest ID/IQ that the Company won in the September quarter was Alliant, a General Services Administration contract vehicle with a $50 billion ceiling value over 10 years. The contract is currently under protest.
