"Our second quarter results were solid, reflecting strong program performance and exceptional cash flow with a continued focus on returning capital to shareholders," said SAIC CEO Toni Townes-Whitley. “We are seeing encouraging trends as we execute our growth strategy. Our expanded pipeline of qualified opportunities is now converting to a higher number and quality of submissions and increasing book-to-bill, trends which are expected to accelerate and drive growth into Fiscal Year 2026.

⁽¹⁾Non-GAAP measure, see Schedule 6 for information about this measure.

Second Quarter Summary Results

Revenues for the quarter increased $34 million or 2% compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to ramp up in volume on existing and new contracts, partially offset by contract completions.

Operating income as a percentage of revenues decreased from the comparable prior year period primarily due to the gain on the sale of the Supply Chain Business ($234 million) 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 9.4% from 9.8% 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 $1.58 compared to $4.56 in the prior year quarter. Adjusted diluted earnings per share⁽¹⁾ for the quarter was $2.05 compared to $2.05 in the prior year quarter. The weighted-average diluted shares outstanding during the quarter decreased to 51.2 million from 53.9 million during the prior year quarter.

⁽¹⁾Non-GAAP measure, see Schedule 6 for information about this measure.

Cash Generation and Capital Deployment

Cash flows provided by operating activities for the second quarter decreased $12 million compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to higher cash used from the Master Accounts Receivable Purchase Agreement ("MARPA Facility") in the current year, partially offset by timing of collections, lower tax payments in the current year, and other net favorable changes in working capital.

During the quarter, SAIC deployed $226 million of capital, consisting of $201 million of plan share repurchases, $19 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 October 25, 2024 to stockholders of record on October 11, 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 $1.2 billion, which reflects a book-to-bill ratio of 0.6 and a trailing twelve months book-to-bill ratio of 1.1. SAIC’s estimated backlog at the end of the quarter was approximately $22.9 billion. Of the total backlog amount, approximately $4.2 billion was funded.

Notable New Awards:

U.S. Treasury: During the quarter, SAIC was awarded a one year, approximately $134 million task order to support the Treasury Cloud (TCloud). This effort provides enterprise-level commercial Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS), Platform as a Service (PaaS), and Software as a Service (SaaS) cloud products and professional services to support Treasury and Bureau business and mission operations.

Notable Recompete Awards:

Department of Veterans Affairs: During the quarter, SAIC was awarded a five-year (one year base, plus four, one-year option periods), $206 million recompete to deliver high-quality IT services that are crucial to the seamless execution of the Veterans Affairs Financial Services Center’s operations. This effort will support the Financial Services Center in Austin, TX with essential services such as infrastructure and application support, cloud services, cybersecurity, data analytics, database design, and administration.

U.S. Navy: During the quarter, SAIC was awarded three contracts worth $58 million to support the Airborne Electronic Attack (AEA) Integrated Product Team (IPT) Jammer Technique Optimization (JATO) Program, the International Program, and the AEA IPT EA-18G Program. These three contracts will deliver mission-critical solutions with dedicated support to the Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Division.

U.S. Defense and Space Portfolio: During the quarter, SAIC was awarded approximately $250 million of contract awards by defense and space organizations. These awards represent a combination of new business and recompetes.

GAAP to Non-GAAP Guidance Reconciliation

The Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking adjusted diluted EPS to GAAP diluted EPS, adjusted EBITDA margin to GAAP net income or transaction-adjusted free cash flow and free cash flow to GAAP net cash flows from operating activities due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation. Because certain deductions for non-GAAP exclusions used to calculate net income and cash flows from operating activities may vary significantly based on actual events, the Company is not able to forecast GAAP diluted EPS, GAAP net income or GAAP net cash flows from operating activities with reasonable certainty. The variability of the above charges may have an unpredictable and potentially significant impact on our future GAAP financial results.

In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by words such as “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “guidance,” and similar words or phrases. Forward-looking statements in this release may include, among others, estimates of future revenues, operating income, earnings, earnings per share, charges, total contract value, backlog, outstanding shares and cash flows, as well as statements about future dividends, share repurchases and other capital deployment plans.

Second Quarter Defense and Intelligence Results

Revenues for the quarter increased $26 million or 2% compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to ramp up in volume on existing and new contracts, partially offset by contract completions.

Operating income and adjusted operating income⁽¹⁾ as a percentage of revenues was comparable to the prior year period, primarily due to ramp up in volume on existing and new contracts, offset by contract completions.

Second Quarter Civilian Results

Revenues for the quarter increased $8 million or 2% compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to ramp up in volume on existing contracts.

Operating income and adjusted operating income⁽¹⁾ as a percentage of revenues decreased from the comparable prior year period partially due to timing and volume mix.

Second Quarter Corporate Results

Operating loss and adjusted operating loss⁽¹⁾ for the quarter increased $220 million and decreased $9 million, respectively, from the comparable prior year period primarily due to the gain recognized from the divestiture of the Supply Chain Business in the prior year period ($234 million), partially offset by lower selling, general and administrative expenses.

⁽¹⁾Non-GAAP measure, see Schedule 6 for information about this measure.

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, with the exception of certain IDIQ contracts where task orders are not competitively awarded and separately priced but instead are used as a funding mechanism, and where there is a basis for estimating future revenues and funding on future anticipated task orders.

Schedule 6:

SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
(Unaudited)

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.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

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 is a performance measure that excludes the impact of non-recurring transactions that we do not consider to be indicative of our ongoing operating performance. The acquisition and integration costs relate to the Company's acquisitions. The restructuring and impairment costs represent the reorganization and facilities optimization costs or impairments of long-lived assets. The recovery of acquisition and integration costs and restructuring and impairment costs relate to costs recovered through the Company's indirect rates in accordance with Cost Accounting Standards. The (gain) loss on divestitures includes gains associated with the deconsolidation of FSA and the sale of the logistics and supply chain management business, net of transaction costs. 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 recovery of acquisition and integration costs and restructuring and impairment costs relate to costs recovered through the Company's indirect rates in accordance with Cost Accounting Standards. Adjusted operating income 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. The (gain) loss on divestitures includes gains associated with the sale of the logistics and supply chain management business, net of transaction costs. 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. All adjustments to operating income for the periods presented were associated with Corporate costs and initiatives.

Free cash flow is calculated by taking cash flows provided by operating activities less expenditures for property, plant, and equipment and less cash flows from our Master Accounts Receivable Purchasing Agreement (MARPA Facility) for the sale of certain designated eligible U.S. government receivables. Under the MARPA Facility, the Company can sell eligible receivables up to a maximum amount of $300 million. Transaction-adjusted free cash flow excludes cash taxes, transaction fees, and other costs related to the divestiture of the logistics and supply chain management business from free cash flow as previously defined. We believe that free cash flow and transaction-adjusted 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 similar non-GAAP liquidity measures. These measures should not be considered as a measure of residual cash flow available for discretionary purposes.
