Material Changes vs. Prior Period
- Revenue Growth: Revenue increased 26.0% ($42.2 million) for the quarter and 27.4% ($84.3 million) for the six months compared to the prior year. Growth was driven by increased demand from federal customers and acquisitions.
- Profitability: Net income rose 76.8% for the quarter and 58.9% for the six months. Operating income increased 36.0% (quarter) and 32.0% (six months), aided by relatively lower indirect costs as a percentage of revenue.
- Acquisitions: Acquisitions accounted for $18.0 million of revenue growth in the quarter and $36.4 million for the six months. Key acquisitions included Acton Burnell, Inc. (Oct 2002) and Condor Technology Solutions (Aug 2002).
- Discontinued Operations: The prior year included a $1.25 million loss on the disposal of the Marketing Systems Group, which did not impact the current period.
- Interest Expense: Net interest expense turned into income due to high cash balances ($120.8 million in cash and marketable securities) generated from a secondary stock offering in March 2002.
Outlook, Risks, and Management Commentary
- Acquisition Strategy: Management continues to pursue acquisitions to expand its business base. Letters of intent were signed in late December 2002 and January 2003 for two additional companies focused on intelligence and defense IT services, with closings expected in Q3 FY2003.
- Liquidity: The company maintains strong liquidity with $94 million in cash and equivalents and a $185 million revolving credit facility (unused as of Dec 31, 2002). A $25 million balance on a credit facility was paid in full on January 8, 2003.
- Legal Proceedings: CACI is pursuing a claim against the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) for breach of contract regarding electronic data interchange networks. An amended claim has been submitted, with a trial likely in summer 2003. Management believes a favorable outcome could have a material impact on earnings.
- Risks: Risks include the UK economic downturn affecting international operations, government funding priorities (e.g., homeland security, war on terrorism), and the ability to complete fixed-price contracts within budget.
