CACI Reports Results for Its Fiscal 2023 Second Quarter

Revenues of $1.6 billion, 11% YoY growth

Net income of $87.1 million and Diluted EPS of $3.68

Adjusted net income of $101.3 million and Adjusted diluted EPS of $4.28

CACI International Inc (NYSE: CACI), a leading provider of expertise and technology to government enterprise and mission customers, announced results today for its fiscal second quarter ended December 31, 2022.

John Mengucci, CACI President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “CACI delivered strong growth, profitability, and contract awards in our second quarter and first half. We are successfully executing our strategy, making the right investments, hiring and retaining top talent, winning new work, and managing the business efficiently. We remain confident in our full-year outlook and our ability to deliver value to both our customers and our shareholders.”

Second Quarter Results

Revenues in the second quarter of fiscal year 2023 increased 11 percent year-over-year, driven by 6 percent organic growth as well as acquisitions completed within the prior 12 months. The increase in income from operations was driven by higher revenue and gross profit. Diluted earnings per share and adjusted diluted earnings per share decreased due to higher interest expense and a higher tax rate, partially offset by higher income from operations. Net cash provided by operating activities excluding MARPA and free cash flow decreased due higher cash tax payments, including a $46 million payment related to Section 174 of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017.

Second Quarter Contract Awards

Contract awards in the second quarter totaled $3.5 billion, with approximately 70 percent for new business to CACI. Awards exclude ceiling values of multi-award, indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contracts. Some notable awards during the quarter were:

• CACI was awarded a mission expertise contract to provide network and exploitation analysis for an Intelligence Community (IC) customer’s foreign intelligence and cybersecurity missions. CACI recognized approximately $1.5 billion in second quarter awards and backlog based on currently identified requirements.

• CACI was awarded the Defense Counterintelligence and Security Agency (DCSA) Background Investigation Fieldwork Services Contract to provide background investigation capabilities to the DCSA. The five-year, single-award, indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity contract is valued at $2.25 billion. CACI recognized approximately $1.2 billion in second quarter awards and backlog based on prior and expected case volumes. CACI has a long-standing partnership with the DCSA and has supported national security by performing security clearance background investigations for three previous, consecutive iterations of the contract. Under this enterprise technology contract, more than 1,000 of CACI's background investigators will conduct these initial investigations and periodic reinvestigations nationwide assisting DCSA with over two million background investigations per year.

• CACI was awarded a single-award prime contract worth up to $284 million by the National Security Agency (NSA) to provide mission expertise and systems engineering support for NSA’s Cybersecurity Directorate. Under the five-year contract, CACI will help to modernize NSA’s systems engineering practices across their extended enterprise.

Total backlog as of December 31, 2022 was $26.5 billion compared with $24.1 billion a year ago, an increase of 10 percent. Funded backlog as of December 31, 2022 was $3.2 billion compared with $3.1 billion a year ago, an increase of 3 percent.

There are statements made herein that do not address historical facts and, therefore, could be interpreted to be forward-looking statements as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements are subject to risk factors that could cause actual results to be materially different from anticipated results. These risk factors include, but are not limited to, the following: our reliance on U.S. government contracts, which includes general risk around the government contract procurement process (such as bid protest, small business set asides, loss of work due to organizational conflicts of interest, etc.) and termination risks; significant delays or reductions in appropriations for our programs and broader changes in U.S. government funding and spending patterns; legislation that amends or changes discretionary spending levels or budget priorities, such as for homeland security or to address global pandemics like COVID-19; legal, regulatory, and political change from successive presidential administrations that could result in economic uncertainty; changes in U.S. federal agencies, current agreements with other nations, foreign events, or any other events which may affect the global economy, including the impact of global pandemics like COVID-19; the results of government audits and reviews conducted by the Defense Contract Audit Agency, the Defense Contract Management Agency, or other governmental entities with cognizant oversight; competitive factors such as pricing pressures and/or competition to hire and retain employees (particularly those with security clearances); failure to achieve contract awards in connection with re-competes for present business and/or competition for new business; regional and national economic conditions in the United States and globally, including but not limited to: terrorist activities or war, changes in interest rates, currency fluctuations, significant fluctuations in the equity markets, and market speculation regarding our continued independence; our ability to meet contractual performance obligations, including technologically complex obligations dependent on factors not wholly within our control; limited access to certain facilities required for us to perform our work, including during a global pandemic like COVID-19; changes in tax law, the interpretation of associated rules and regulations, or any other events impacting our effective tax rate; changes in technology; the potential impact of the announcement or consummation of a proposed transaction and our ability to successfully integrate the operations of our recent and any future acquisitions; our ability to achieve the objectives of near term or long-term business plans; the effects of health epidemics, pandemics and similar outbreaks may have material adverse effects on our business, financial position, results of operations and/or cash flows; and other risks described in our Securities and Exchange Commission filings.

Reconciliation of Net Income to Adjusted Net Income and Diluted EPS to Adjusted Diluted EPS (Unaudited)

Adjusted net income and Adjusted diluted EPS are non-GAAP performance measures. We define Adjusted net income and Adjusted diluted EPS as GAAP net income and GAAP diluted EPS, respectively, excluding intangible amortization expense and the related tax impact as we do not consider intangible amortization expense to be indicative of our core operating performance. We believe that these performance measures provide management and investors with useful information in assessing trends in our ongoing operating performance, provide greater visibility in understanding the long-term financial performance of the Company, and allow investors to more easily compare our results to results of our peers. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Reconciliation of Net Income to Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) (Unaudited)

The Company views Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin, both of which are defined as non-GAAP measures, as important indicators of performance, consistent with the manner in which management measures and forecasts the Company’s performance. Adjusted EBITDA is a commonly used non-GAAP measure when comparing our results with those of other companies. We define Adjusted EBITDA as GAAP net income plus net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense (including depreciation within direct costs), and earnout adjustments. We consider Adjusted EBITDA to be a useful metric for management and investors to evaluate and compare the ongoing operating performance of our business on a consistent basis across reporting periods, as it eliminates the effect of non-cash items such as depreciation of tangible assets, amortization of intangible assets primarily recognized in business combinations, as well as the effect of earnout gains and losses, which we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA margin is Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Reconciliation of Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities to Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities Excluding MARPA and to Free Cash Flow
(Unaudited)

The Company defines Net cash provided by operating activities excluding MARPA, a non-GAAP measure, as net cash provided by operating activities calculated in accordance with GAAP, adjusted to exclude cash flows from CACI’s Master Accounts Receivable Purchase Agreement (MARPA) for the sale of certain designated eligible U.S. government receivables up to a maximum amount of $200.0 million. Free cash flow is a non-GAAP liquidity measure and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. The Company defines Free cash flow as Net cash provided by operating activities excluding MARPA, less payments for capital expenditures. The Company uses these non-GAAP measures to assess our ability to generate cash from our business operations and plan for future operating and capital actions. We believe these measures allow investors to more easily compare current period results to prior period results and to results of our peers. Free cash flow does not represent residual cash flows available for discretionary purposes and should not be used as a substitute for cash flow measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
