Material Changes vs. Prior Period
- Revenue Growth: Revenue increased 4.9% ($20.4 million) for the quarter and 7.1% ($84.7 million) for the nine-month period compared to the prior year. Growth was driven by acquisitions (ISS, NSR, TCO) and organic growth in DoD and intelligence community contracts, partially offset by the loss of certain re-compete work and a decline in Department of Justice litigation support revenue.
- Profitability: Net income rose 5.2% for the quarter and 8.6% for the nine-month period. Operating margins remained relatively stable, though slightly compressed due to a higher mix of "other direct costs" (materials/subcontractors) which carry lower margins than direct labor.
- Accounting Changes: The company adopted FAS 123R (Share-Based Payment) effective July 1, 2005. Prior period results have been restated to reflect the expensing of stock options, which reduced reported net income for the comparable 2005 periods.
- Acquisitions: Significant cash outflows for investing activities ($187.6 million for the nine months) were driven by the acquisition of ISS ($145.8 million), NSR, and TCO.
Outlook, Risks, and Contingencies
- Subsequent Event: On May 1, 2006, the company completed a merger with AlphaInsight Corporation, adding approximately 360 employees and expanding capabilities in software and systems engineering for civilian agencies.
- Legal Proceedings: The company is involved in litigation related to the Abu Ghraib prison facility (Saleh v. Titan Corp. and Ibrahim v. Titan Corp.). Management believes these matters will not have a material adverse effect on financial position. A Federal Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed a decision against the company regarding a breach of contract claim with DISA, though no damages were awarded.
- Investigations: The company received a subpoena from the Department of Energy Office of Inspector General regarding "alliance benefits." Management believes the resolution will not materially impact financial results.
- Liquidity: The company maintains a $550 million credit facility. As of March 31, 2006, it had $343 million outstanding on the term loan and $25 million on the revolving facility. Management expects internally generated funds and available borrowings to be sufficient for operations and acquisitions.
Investor Verification Checklist
- Acquisition Integration: Verify the revenue contribution and integration progress of the ISS, NSR, and TCO acquisitions, which drove the majority of recent growth.
- Contract Re-compete Risks: Monitor the impact of lost re-compete work and the conclusion of the Department of Justice litigation support contract on future revenue stability.
- Legal Exposure: Track the status of the Abu Ghraib-related lawsuits and the Department of Energy subpoena to assess potential contingent liabilities.
- Debt Covenants: Confirm continued compliance with the financial covenants of the 2004 Credit Facility, particularly leverage and fixed-charge coverage ratios.
- Stock-Based Compensation: Review the impact of FAS 123R on future earnings, noting the immediate expensing of grants to employees nearing retirement age.
