Science Applications International Corporation, a premier Fortune 500® technology integrator driving our nation's digital transformation across the defense, space, civilian, and intelligence markets, today announced results for the first quarter ended May 3, 2024.
“We reported solid financial results in the quarter as we began executing against our enterprise growth strategy introduced at SAIC's 2024 Investor Day,” said SAIC CEO Toni Townes-Whitley. "We are confident that the strategy and investments we are making best position the company to maximize long-term shareholder value. While we are seeing early indications of progress, we expect returns from our investments to further accelerate in FY26 and FY27."
First Quarter Summary Results
Revenues for the quarter decreased $181 million or 9% compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to the sale of the logistics and supply chain management business ("Supply Chain Business") ($188 million) in the prior year and contract completions, partially offset by ramp up in volume on existing and new contracts. Adjusting for the impact of the divestiture of the Supply Chain Business, revenues grew 0.4%.
Operating income as a percentage of revenues decreased from the comparable prior year period primarily due to the sale of the Supply Chain Business in the prior year, a gain recognized from the deconsolidation of FSA in the prior year period, and contract completions, partially offset by ramp up in volume on existing and new contracts.
Adjusted EBITDA(1) as a percentage of revenues for the quarter decreased to 9.0% from 9.3% for the same period in the prior year primarily due to contract completions, partially offset by ramp up in volume on existing and new contracts.
Diluted earnings per share for the quarter was $1.48 compared to $1.79 in the prior year quarter. Adjusted diluted earnings per share(1) for the quarter was $1.92 compared to $2.14 in the prior year quarter. The weighted-average diluted shares outstanding during the quarter decreased to 52.1 million from 54.8 million during the prior year quarter.
Effective February 3, 2024, the first day of fiscal 2025, SAIC completed a business reorganization which replaced its previous two operating sectors with five customer facing business groups supported by the enterprise organizations, including the Innovation Factory. The five business groups represent SAIC's operating segments and have been aggregated into two reportable segments (Defense and Intelligence, and Civilian) given the similarity in economic and qualitative characteristics, and based on the nature of the customers they serve. See "Schedule 4 - Segment Operating Results" for reportable segment results.
Cash Generation and Capital Deployment
Cash flows provided by operating activities for the first quarter increased $16 million compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to higher cash provided by the Master Accounts Receivable Purchase Agreement ("MARPA Facility") in the current year, partially offset by higher incentive-based compensation payments in the current year and other changes in working capital.
During the quarter, SAIC deployed $107 million of capital, consisting of $81 million of plan share repurchases, $20 million in cash dividends, and $6 million of capital expenditures.
Quarterly Dividend Declared
As previously announced, subsequent to quarter end, the Company's Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.37 per share of the Company's common stock payable on July 26, 2024 to stockholders of record on July 12, 2024. 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
Net bookings for the quarter were approximately $2.6 billion, which reflects a book-to-bill ratio of 1.4 and a trailing twelve months book-to-bill ratio of 1.0. SAIC’s estimated backlog at the end of the quarter was approximately $23.6 billion. Of the total backlog amount, approximately $3.5 billion was funded.
