COVID-19: Fourth Quarter and Full Fiscal Year Impact

The fourth quarter program revenue impact from the COVID-19 pandemic is estimated to be approximately $80 million and $4 million of adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾. For the full fiscal year, the program revenue impact is estimated to be approximately $250 million and $25 million of adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾. These impacts were primarily driven by reduced volume in our supply chain business, lower FAA training service revenues, and profit recovery on ready-state labor.

Fourth Quarter Summary Results

Revenues for the quarter increased $177 million, or 11%, compared to the prior year quarter primarily due to the acquisition of Unisys Federal. Excluding acquired revenues, revenues increased by 0.8% due to new business primarily supporting civilian customers and U.S. Air Force, partially offset by lower volume due to the COVID-19 pandemic, predominantly in the supply chain portfolio.

Operating income as a percentage of revenues increased to 5.9% for the three months ended January 29, 2021 as compared to 5.7% in the comparable prior year period primarily due the acquisition of Unisys Federal, lower acquisition and integration costs and strong program execution, partially offset by increased intangible asset amortization and the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Net income attributable to common stockholders for the quarter was $62 million, an increase of $3 million from the comparable prior year period primarily as the result of higher operating income, partially offset by higher interest expense and higher taxes.

Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ as a percentage of revenues for the quarter was 9.3%, compared to 8.7% for the prior year quarter due to the acquisition of Unisys Federal and solid program performance, partially offset by the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Diluted earnings per share was $1.05 and adjusted diluted earnings per share⁽¹⁾ was $1.67 for the quarter. The negative impact from acquisition and integrations costs and restructuring costs included within diluted earnings per share was $0.10 for the quarter. The weighted-average diluted shares outstanding during the quarter was 59.0 million shares.

Fiscal Year 2021 Summary Results

Revenues for the fiscal year increased $677 million compared to the prior year, primarily due to the acquisition of Unisys Federal. Adjusting for the impact of acquired revenues, revenues grew 0.6% due to new business primarily supporting the intelligence community and U.S. Air Force, and increased volume on existing programs. These increases were partially offset by the impacts of COVID-19 and completion of certain contracts.

Operating income as a percentage of revenues for the fiscal year was 5.5%, down from 5.8% of revenues in the prior fiscal year. The decrease in operating margin was primarily due to increased intangible asset amortization and the impacts of COVID-19, partially offset by the acquisition of Unisys Federal and gains related to the resolution of certain program contract matters.

Net income attributable to common stockholders for the fiscal year was $209 million, a decrease of $17 million from the prior fiscal year primarily due to higher interest expense, partially offset by higher operating income.

Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ as a percentage of revenues for the fiscal year increased to 8.9% of revenues, compared to 8.4% in the prior fiscal year. The increase was driven by the acquisition of Unisys Federal and gains related to the resolution of certain program contract matters, partially offset by the impacts of COVID-19.

Diluted earnings per share was $3.56 and adjusted diluted earnings per share⁽¹⁾ was $6.27 for the year. The negative impact from acquisition and integrations costs included within diluted earnings per share was $0.77 for the fiscal year. The weighted-average diluted shares outstanding during the year was 58.7 million shares.

Cash Generation and Capital Deployment

Total cash flows provided by operating activities for the fourth quarter were $53 million. The $16 million decrease in cash provided by operating activities compared to the prior year period was primarily due to higher income tax payments and a net increase in working capital, partially offset by higher profitability primarily related to Unisys Federal.

Total cash flows provided by operating activities for the year were $755 million, an increase of $297 million from the prior year, primarily due to sales of receivables under the MARPA facility ($185 million) and benefit from the deferral of payroll tax payments afforded by the CARES Act.

During the quarter, SAIC deployed $55 million of capital, consisting of $22 million in cash dividends, $19 million (approximately 0.2 million shares) of plan share repurchases, and $14 million of capital expenditures. In addition, SAIC made $23 million of term loan repayment in the fourth quarter. For the year, SAIC deployed $152 million of capital, consisting of cash dividends of $87 million, $46 million of capital expenditures, and plan share repurchases of $19 million. In addition, SAIC made $399 million of debt repayments in the fiscal year.

Quarterly Dividend Declared

Subsequent to fiscal year-end, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.37 per share of the Company’s common stock payable on April 30, 2021 to stockholders of record on April 16, 2021. SAIC intends to continue paying dividends on a quarterly basis, although the declaration of any future dividends will be determined by the Board of Directors each quarter and will depend on earnings, financial condition, capital requirements and other factors.

Backlog and Contract Awards

SAIC was awarded the following contracts during the quarter:

Notable New Business Awards:

U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Revolutionary Information Technology Services (RITS): SAIC was awarded a new $1.3 billion contract to provide enterprise technology support services to the Army Corps of Engineers. Under the five-year contract, SAIC will assist in providing modern and secure enterprise-wide IT support for more than 37,000 users in 43 geographic districts and over 1,500 field and project offices around the world.

Notable Recompete Awards:

U.S. Army AMCOM Hardware-in-the-Loop Aviation Services: SAIC was awarded a recompete contract, valued at $830 million, to continue providing hardware-in-the-loop (HWIL) aviation systems engineering services. Under the potential five and a half-year contract, SAIC will continue to provide systems engineering and integration services to all branches of the armed services.

Net bookings for the quarter were approximately $0.7 billion, which reflects a book-to-bill ratio of approximately 0.4. Net bookings for the year were approximately $11.9 billion, which reflects a book-to-bill ratio of approximately 1.7. In accordance with the company's backlog policy, bookings on awarded contracts are estimated realizable value, often less than awarded contract value but are re-evaluated over the life of the contract. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021, we included a valuation adjustment for open unfulfilled contracts, that in our judgment, may not be converted to future sales, but which have not been closed or de-obligated by the customer. The effect of this reduced backlog by $2.2 billion as of January 29, 2021. SAIC’s estimated backlog of signed business orders at the end of fiscal 2021 was approximately $21.5 billion of which $3.0 billion was funded.

SAIC was awarded the following contracts subsequent to the end of the quarter:

U.S. Army AMCOM S3I Modeling & Simulation Systems Engineering: SAIC was awarded a recompete contract, valued at $800 million over a five-year period of performance to continue providing engineering and professional services supporting systems-of-systems, live/virtual/constructive (LVC) and battlespace effectiveness models, simulations, and analysis.

U.S. Army AMCOM Hardware-in-the-Loop Modeling & Simulation Development: SAIC was awarded a recompete contract, valued at $3.6 billion over an eight and a half-year period of performance. Under the contract, SAIC will continue to provide engineering services to support the full life-cycle development and sustainment for force protection, trainers, and virtual, interactive, and multimedia systems.

U.S. Intelligence Community: SAIC was awarded a follow-on contract valued at $483 million, if all options are exercised, to support an intelligence space customer over a ten-year period of performance. Although the specific nature of the contract is classified, SAIC will continue to provide expertise that the customer requires to oversee the design, development, and initial operational capability of an extremely complex family of space systems, including space and ground segments as well as launch and user interfaces.

Other Notable News

SAIC Honored by Fortune's World's Most Admired Companies List: SAIC was named by Fortune Magazine as one of the World’s Most Admired Companies and ranked sixth within the Information Technology Services category. This is the Company’s fourth recognition on Fortune’s list since SAIC’s inception in 2013.

GAAP to Non-GAAP Guidance Reconciliation

The Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking adjusted diluted EPS to GAAP diluted EPS or adjusted EBITDA margin to GAAP net income due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation, including, but not limited to, amortization of acquired intangible assets and acquisition, integration and restructuring costs. As a result, the Company is not able to forecast GAAP diluted EPS or GAAP net income with reasonable certainty. The variability of the above charges may have an unpredictable and potentially significant impact on our future GAAP financial results.

Backlog represents the estimated amount of future revenues to be recognized under negotiated contracts and task orders as work is performed and excludes contract awards which have been protested by competitors until the protest is resolved in our favor. SAIC segregates backlog into two categories, funded backlog and negotiated unfunded backlog. Funded backlog for contracts with government agencies primarily represents contracts for which funding is appropriated less revenues previously recognized on these contracts, and does not include the unfunded portion of contracts where funding is incrementally appropriated or authorized by the U.S. government and other customers even though the contract may call for performance over a number of years. Funded backlog for contracts with non-government agencies represents the estimated value of contracts which may cover multiple future years under which SAIC is obligated to perform, less revenues previously recognized on these contracts. Negotiated unfunded backlog represents the estimated future revenues to be earned from negotiated contracts for which funding has not been appropriated or authorized, and unexercised priced contract options. Negotiated unfunded backlog does not include any estimate of future potential task orders expected to be awarded under indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ), U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) schedules or other master agreement contract vehicles.

This schedule describes the non-GAAP financial measures included in this earnings release. While we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures may be useful in evaluating our financial information, they should be considered as supplemental in nature and not as a substitute for financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations, definitions, and how we believe these measures are useful to management and investors are provided below. Other companies may define similar measures differently.

Adjusted operating income as a percentage of revenues		6.3			%		6.8			%		6.3			%		6.4			%

EBITDA is a performance measure that is calculated by taking net income and excluding interest and loss on sale of receivables, provision for income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted operating income are performance measures that exclude acquisition and integration costs and restructuring costs that we do not consider to be indicative of our ongoing operating performance. The acquisition and integration costs relate to the Company's significant acquisitions of Unisys Federal and Engility. The recovery of acquisition and integration costs and restructuring costs relate to costs recovered through the Company's indirect rates in accordance with Cost Accounting Standards. We believe that these performance measures provide management and investors with useful information in assessing trends in our ongoing operating performance and may provide greater visibility in understanding the long-term financial performance of the Company.

The acquisition and integration costs relate to the Company's recent acquisitions of Unisys Federal and Engility. The acquisition and integration costs and restructuring costs are net of the portion of costs recovered through the Company's indirect rates in accordance with Cost Accounting Standards. Adjusted diluted earnings per share also excludes amortization of intangible assets because we do not have a history of significant acquisition activity, we do not acquire businesses on a predictable cycle, and the amount of an acquisition's purchase price allocated to intangible assets and the related amortization term are unique to each acquisition. We believe that this performance measure provides management and investors with useful information in assessing trends in our ongoing operating performance and may provide greater visibility in understanding the long-term financial performance of the Company.

Free cash flow is calculated by taking cash flows provided by operating activities less expenditures for property, plant, and equipment. We believe that free cash flow provides management and investors with useful information in assessing trends in our cash flows and in comparing them to other peer companies, many of whom present a similar non-GAAP liquidity measure. Additionally, the Company provides free cash flow excluding the Master Accounts Receivable Purchasing Agreement (MARPA) for the sale of certain designated eligible U.S. government receivables. Under the MARPA, the Company can sell eligible receivables up to a maximum amount of $300 million. The Company provides free cash flow excluding MARPA to allow investors to more easily compare current period results to prior period results and to results of our peers. These measures should not be considered as a measure of residual cash flow available for discretionary purposes.
