“Revenues performed by former parent” represent work performed by SAIC’s former parent on pre-separation joint work recorded at revenue equal to cost.

(3)

“Adjusted diluted earnings per share” is calculated excluding acquisition and integration costs of $1 million and $16 million for the three and nine months ended October 30, 2015, respectively, and uses SAIC’s effective income tax rates for each period reported without the negative effect of the non-deductible acquisition costs that are included in reported net income.

Revenues for the third quarter were $1,129 million compared to $993 million during the prior year quarter, which equates to revenue growth of 14%. The increase in revenue was due to the acquisition of Scitor, which generated $148 million in revenue during the quarter. This increase was partially offset by lower material volume on supply chain contracts ($19 million).

As is shown in Schedule 5, in the third quarter the Company's internal revenue contracted 1.9% when revenue from the prior year quarter is adjusted to include Scitor’s historical revenue. The internal revenue contraction resulted primarily from lower material volume on supply chain contracts ($19 million) and lower revenues of $10 million for Scitor compared to Scitor’s prior year quarter.

Operating income for the quarter was $64 million, or 5.7% of revenues, up from $63 million in the prior year quarter. The increase in operating income was primarily driven by operating income generated by Scitor during the quarter ($5 million after $11 million of amortization of intangible assets acquired through the acquisition), which was partially offset by lower favorable changes in estimates on contracts accounted for under the percentage-of-completion method compared to the prior year quarter ($3 million) and current quarter costs associated with the integration of Scitor ($1 million). Adjusted operating income as a percentage of revenues was 5.8% for the quarter.

Net income for the quarter was $34 million compared to $37 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease was due to increased interest expense on incremental term loan borrowings related to the Scitor acquisition ($7 million, net of tax), partially offset by a lower effective tax rate of 32.1% ($3 million) and increased operating income ($1 million). The lower effective tax rate was due to the identification of additional expenditures that qualified for the manufacturers’ tax deduction and the federal research tax credit in prior fiscal years.

Diluted earnings per share was $0.72 for the quarter and adjusted diluted earnings per share was $0.73 (which excludes the estimated after-tax effects of $1 million of acquisition and integration costs). The weighted-average diluted shares outstanding during the quarter was 47.4 million shares.

Cash Generation and Capital Deployment

Total cash flows provided by operating activities for the quarter were $68 million, a decrease of $14 million from the comparable prior year quarter. The decrease in operating cash over the prior year quarter was primarily due to higher interest expense on incremental borrowings due to the Scitor acquisition ($10 million), a current quarter retirement plan contribution ($9 million) and the timing of customer receipts. Customer receipts were impacted during the current quarter by the ramp up of newly won contracts. These decreases to operating cash flows were partially offset by current quarter cash flows generated from Scitor’s operating activities and an increase in accounts payable primarily related to the timing of disbursements for newly won contracts.

During the quarter, SAIC deployed $30 million of capital, consisting of $13 million in cash dividends and $17 million in plan share repurchases (approximately 0.4 million shares) under SAIC’s previously announced share repurchase program. During the quarter, an additional 3.5 million shares were approved for share repurchases under the share repurchase program, bringing the total number of shares that may be purchased in future quarters to 4.6 million shares.

New Business Awards

Net bookings for the quarter were approximately $1.4 billion, which reflects a book-to-bill ratio of approximately 1.2. SAIC’s estimated backlog of signed business orders at the end of the quarter was approximately $7.4 billion of which $2.1 billion was funded. Negotiated backlog does not include any estimate of future task orders expected to be awarded under indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity, U.S. General Services Administration schedules or other master agreement contract vehicles.

SAIC was awarded the following notable contracts during the quarter:

U.S. Army – Aviation and Missile Research, Development and Engineering Center (AMRDEC): SAIC was awarded a task order on the Systems and Computer Resources Support (SCRS) contract to continue to provide a variety of systems engineering and software development services for AMRDEC. The single award, firm-fixed price level of effort task order has a one year ordering period, a two-year period of performance and an estimated contract value of $757 million. Work will be performed primarily in Alabama.

NASA Langley Information Technology Enhanced Services II (LITES II): SAIC was awarded NASA’s LITES II contract to provide a variety of information technology (IT) support services, including specialized work on science and engineering software used in modeling and simulation.

Work will be performed primarily in Virginia.

General Services Administration (GSA) Enterprise Operations: The GSA awarded SAIC a task order to assist with managing and evolving IT service delivery across the GSA enterprise. The single award, cost-plus-award-fee task order represents new work for SAIC and has a one year base period of performance, four one year options, and a total contract value of $549 million, if all options are exercised. Work will be performed in Washington, D.C. and other sites worldwide.

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

U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Risk Management Agency: SAIC was awarded a prime task order contract to continue to provide full life cycle IT services to the USDA Risk Management Agency. The single-award task order has a one year period of performance, four one year options and a total contract value of $156 million, if all options are exercised. Work will be performed in Missouri.

Negotiated unfunded backlog 5,347 5,210 4,513
Total backlog $ 7,414 $ 7,142 $ 6,172

We obtained $1.1 billion of backlog through the acquisition of Scitor during the second quarter. Backlog represents the estimated amount of future revenues to be recognized under negotiated contracts as work is performed and excludes contract awards which have been protested by competitors. SAIC segregates its 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 on 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.

(1)

“Internal revenue (contraction) growth” is a non-GAAP financial measure that management believes provides an indicator of how successful SAIC has been in growing revenue as we develop our base business and access new markets and capabilities provided by acquisitions like Scitor. We calculate our internal revenue growth (contraction) percentage by comparing our reported revenue for the current year to the reported revenue for the prior year comparable period adjusted to include the comparable period historical revenue of acquired businesses as if the acquisition took place in the prior year.

(2)

“Internal revenue (contraction) growth”, “adjusted operating income”, “EBITDA”, and “adjusted EBITDA” are non-GAAP financial measures that are reconciled in this schedule to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with greater visibility into revenue and operating income, but they are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP measures and should be read only in conjunction with SAIC's condensed and consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. The methods used to calculate these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the methods used by other companies and so similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures presented by other companies may not be comparable to those provided in this schedule.

“Adjusted diluted earnings per share” and “free cash flow” are non-GAAP financial measures that are reconciled in this schedule to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with greater visibility into diluted earnings per share and cash flows provided by operating activities, but they are not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable GAAP measures and should be read only in conjunction with SAIC's condensed and consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.

“Adjusted diluted earnings per share” is calculated excluding acquisition and integration costs of $1 million and $16 million for the three and nine months ended October 30, 2015, respectively, and uses SAIC’s effective income tax rates for each period reported without the negative effect of the non-deductible acquisition costs that are included in reported net income.
