SRA Announces Financial Results for
Second Quarter of Fiscal Year 2011
| | • | | Revenue of $435 million, up 5% year-over-year |
| | • | | Diluted EPS from continuing operations of $0.34 |
| | • | | Operating cash flow of $30 million |
FAIRFAX, Va., February 8, 2011 — SRA International, Inc. (NYSE: SRX), a leading provider of technology and strategic consulting services and solutions to government organizations and commercial clients, today announced operating results for the second quarter of fiscal year (FY) 2011, which ended December 31, 2010.
Revenue for the quarter was $434.8 million, up 5.3% from $412.8 million in the December 2009 quarter. Organic revenue growth for the same period was 1.1%. Operating income for the quarter was $31.7 million, for an operating margin of 7.3%. Income from continuing operations was $19.8 million, for a net margin of 4.5%. Diluted earnings per share (DEPS) from continuing operations for the quarter were $0.34. Operating cash flow was $29.8 million.
During the quarter the company incurred a severance charge of $1.8 million in connection with a reduction in its indirect labor force. The actions resulted in a reduction to the annual selling, general and administrative expenses of approximately $10 million. The savings will phase in over the March quarter, and the full effect will be felt in the June quarter. The severance charge is included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the income statement.
SRA President and CEO Stan Sloane said, “Our pipeline of opportunities in the Federal market is robust. We are taking proactive steps to ensure our continued competitiveness, and are committed to delivering organic growth.”
Executive Vice President and CFO Rick Nadeau added, “Operating cash flow was strong in the quarter. We completed the acquisition of Platinum Solutions in November, and completed the quarter with approximately $60 million in cash and no debt.”
Contract Awards
SRA won new business in the second quarter with potential value of $270 million, if all option years are exercised. As of December 31, 2010, the company’s backlog of signed business orders was $4.84 billion, up 9% year-over-year, and the funded portion of backlog was $1.0 billion, up 20% year-over-year.
Major highlights of competitive contract awards in the quarter include:
| | • | | U.S. Special Operations Command.SRA was awarded the Special Operations Research, Development and Acquisition Center Program Executive Office-Fixed Wing task order under |
the SOCOM Global Battlestaff and Program Support vehicle. The task order is valued at $15.3 million with a period of performance of five years.
SRA was also awarded several multiple-award, IDIQ contracts in the second quarter, which are not included in the company’s quarterly bookings figure, but are expected to drive growth over time. These include:
| | • | | Federal Bureau of Investigation. Platinum Solutions, which was recently acquired by SRA, won a prime position on the Federal Bureau of Investigation Information Technology Supplies and Support Services, or IT Triple S contract. IT Triple S is a multiple-award IDIQ contract with a total ceiling value of $30 billion over 8 years, if all options are exercised. |
Forward Guidance
The company is updating revenue and earnings guidance for Fiscal Year 2011 previously provided on November 2, 2010. The table below represents management’s current expectations about the company’s future financial performance, based on information available at this time. SRA completed the acquisition of Platinum Solutions in November. The forward guidance does include the effect of the Platinum acquisition, but does not include any effect of any additional acquisitions or divestitures that SRA might make in the future. The guidance assumes that the FY 2011 diluted weighted-average shares outstanding are 58.2 million, excluding unvested restricted stock awards, and that the allocation of earnings to unvested restricted shares used in the calculation of diluted earnings per share is approximately 1.4% of net income.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The financial measures shown below, organic revenue and free cash flow from continuing operations, are non-GAAP financial measures. These measures are not calculated through the application of GAAP and are not the required form of disclosure by the Securities and Exchange Commission. As such, they should not be considered as substitutes for the most directly comparable GAAP measures and should not be used in isolation, but in conjunction with these GAAP measures. The use of any non-GAAP measure may produce results that vary from the GAAP measure and may not be comparable to a similarly defined non-GAAP measure used by other companies. Reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included below.
Reconciliation Between Total Revenue and Organic Revenue (Unaudited)
(in thousands)
Organic revenue, as presented, is computed by comparing our actual reported revenue in the current period, including revenue attributable to acquired companies, with adjusted revenue from the prior year period. In arriving at prior year revenue, we include the revenue of acquired companies for the prior year periods comparable to the current-year periods for which the companies are included in our actual reported revenue. Revenue from discontinued operations is not included in reported revenue, and therefore, is not considered in our calculation of organic revenue. The resulting rate is intended to represent our organic, or non-acquisitive, growth or decline year-over-year. We believe that this non-GAAP financial measure provides useful information because it allows investors to better assess the underlying growth rate of our business, including the post-acquisition activity of acquired companies.

Reconciliation Between Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities and Free Cash Flow (Unaudited)
(in thousands)
We define free cash flow, as presented, as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. Cash flows from discontinued operations are excluded from the calculation of free cash flow as these cash flows will not continue in future periods. We believe that this non-GAAP financial measure is useful for investors in analyzing our ability to generate cash flow for purposes such as repaying debt, funding business acquisitions, and repurchasing our common stock.
