FAIRFAX, Va. – August 12, 2008 – SRA International, Inc. (NYSE: SRX), a leading provider of technology and strategic consulting services and solutions to government organizations, today announced operating results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year (FY) 2008, which ended June 30, 2008.
Revenue for the quarter increased 18% from $326.2 million in the June 2007 quarter to $384.8 million. Revenue for the year increased 19% from $1.269 billion in FY 2007 to $1.507 billion.
Operating income for the quarter was $30.3 million, and full-year operating income was $119.4 million. Net income for the quarter was $18.8 million, and full-year net income was $73.3 million. Diluted earnings per share for the quarter were $0.32, and full-year diluted earnings per share were $1.24. Fourth quarter diluted earnings per share included about $0.01 from the release of the final escrow related to the 2006 sale of the Company’s remaining interest in Mantas, Inc.
SRA President and CEO Stan Sloane said, “Given our ongoing focus on accelerating organic growth, we’re pleased to have increased our opportunity pipeline to $28.3 billion, including a record $2.2 billion of pending bids. We’ve also repurchased $23 million of shares since the start of the June quarter, and our Board has authorized an additional $100 million stock buyback for the future.”
“We’re enthusiastic about our July acquisitions of Era Corporation and Interface & Control Systems, as both companies give us product capabilities and intellectual property in strategically important market segments. Their technologies are valuable differentiators as we move farther into large-scale systems integration. We’re pleased to welcome their employees to SRA.”
CFO and Executive Vice President of Operations Steve Hughes added, “The more profitable labor services component of revenue grew faster than total revenue again in FY 2008. We expect this trend to continue in FY09, leading to further margin expansion. In light of the AITS re-compete decision, we are pleased with the FY08 results and growth prospects for FY09.”
New Business Awards
The Company won new business in the fourth quarter with potential value of $405 million, if all options are exercised. As of June 30, 2008, the Company’s backlog of signed business orders was $3.9 billion, an increase of 15% year-over-year.
Major highlights of competitive contract awards in the quarter include:
| • | | Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC), Information Technology Support Services (ITSS). SRA won a five-year, $77 million contract to provide a range of technical |
services for FERC, including network and data center support, software engineering, records management, and information security. The award has been protested, and a decision is expected in the next few months.
| • | | Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Office of Emergency Management (OEM). The EPA awarded SRA a seven-year, $56 million contract to continue delivering program analysis and management support to the OEM. This recompete contract includes an expansion of the Company’s services into technical and regulatory development. |
| • | | National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA), New Campus East Deployment Planning and Execution (NDPE). NGA awarded the Company a five-year, $34 million contract to support the movement of all of its Washington, DC area missions and personnel to its New Campus East property on Fort Belvoir in Springfield, VA. |
| • | | National Institute of Environmental Health Science (NIEHS), Information Technology Support Services (ITSS).SRA won a 3.5-year, $26 million contract to provide enterprise-wide IT services for NIEHS. The Company will deliver infrastructure operations and application development services, as well as IT security and bioinformatics systems support. |
Share Buyback
In June and July, the Company repurchased more than one million shares of SRA stock, deploying about $22.7 million in cash, completing the $40 million buyback authorized by the Board of Directors in 2007. The Board has authorized an additional $100 million buyback at management’s discretion over time.
Forward Guidance
The Company is providing initial forward guidance for the full FY 2009. In the past, the Company has provided both quarterly and annual guidance. Management believes that annual guidance is more consistent with building long-term value, so the Company will not provide quarterly guidance going forward.
The table below represents management’s current expectations about the Company’s future financial performance, based on information available at this time. The forward guidance in this table includes the Interface and Control Systems acquisition for the full year, and it accounts for the Era Corporation acquisition as of July 30. It does not include any effect for acquisitions that SRA might make in the future.
| | | | |
Measure | | Fiscal Year Ending June 30, 2009 | | Growth from FY 2008 to 2009 |
Revenue | | $1.60 billion to $1.66 billion | | 6% to 10% |
Diluted earnings per share | | $1.30 to $1.35 | | 6% to 10% |
Please note that the growth calculation for diluted earnings per share excludes the Company’s $0.01 non-operating gain in FY 2008 from the Mantas escrow release.
