Material Changes vs. Prior Period
- Revenue Growth: Revenue increased 5% ($2.7 million) year-over-year. This was driven by a 29% increase in Department of Justice (DoJ) litigation support revenue and growth in Department of Defense (DoD) contracts, partially offset by a 14% decline in commercial revenue due to a downturn in U.K. and U.S. data marketing.
- Profitability: Net income rose 16% ($311,000). Operating income improved due to better cost management, specifically a reduction in indirect labor costs despite revenue growth. Interest expense dropped 71% to $41,000 due to significantly lower average borrowings.
- Cash Flow: Net cash used in operating activities increased to $6.9 million (from $2.2 million) primarily due to a $12.7 million increase in accounts receivable, reflecting the timing of billings and collections on government contracts.
- Balance Sheet: Total assets grew to $88.8 million from $74.6 million. A new $9.1 million note payable was recorded to finance recent acquisitions.
Guidance, Outlook, and Risks
- Acquisitions:
- Completed: Acquired Automated Sciences Group, Inc. (ASG) on Sept 1, 1995, for $4.9 million. Expected to add $16 million in annual revenue and $400,000 in annual earnings.
- Pending: Signed a Letter of Intent on Oct 26, 1995, to acquire IMS Technologies, Inc. for $6.5 million plus $1.5 million in consulting fees. Expected to close Jan 3, 1996. Projected to add $22 million in annual revenue and $500,000 in net income.
- Outlook: Management expects DoJ revenues to remain constant for the balance of the fiscal year. Commercial data marketing revenues are expected to increase following the launch of the "InSite 95" product for Windows 95.
- Liquidity: The company maintains a $20 million unsecured line of credit in the U.S. and a 500,000 GBP line in the U.K. Management believes internal funds and credit lines are sufficient for working capital and acquisition needs.
- Legal Risks:
- Pentagen Litigation: CACI is defending against multiple lawsuits filed by Pentagen Technologies alleging intellectual property theft and False Claims Act violations. CACI previously won summary judgment on defamation claims against Pentagen principals, but an appeal is pending before the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals.
- Shareholder Suits: Previous shareholder suits (Pfirman and Chrysogelos) have been fully settled.
Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the collectability of the $500,000 holdback contingent on receivables from the ASG acquisition.
- Monitor the status of the pending IMS Technologies acquisition and the expected closing date of January 3, 1996.
- Track the outcome of the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals decision regarding the Pentagen defamation appeal (expected within 120 days of Sept 28, 1995).
- Assess the recovery of commercial data marketing revenues following the InSite 95 product launch.
- Review the aging of accounts receivable, which increased by $12.7 million during the quarter, to ensure no material bad debt provisions are needed.
