Material Changes vs. Prior Period
- Revenue Growth: Revenue increased 30% ($27.9 million) year-over-year. Approximately $21.4 million of this increase is attributed to the November 1998 acquisition of QuesTech, Inc., while $6.5 million resulted from organic growth.
- Segment Performance: ISG revenue grew to $107.7 million (from $81.0 million), driven largely by Department of Defense contracts. MSG revenue increased to $12.5 million (from $11.4 million).
- Expense Structure: Direct costs as a percentage of revenue rose to 58.3% from 55.9%, driven by higher subcontract and equipment costs on new contracts. Interest expense more than doubled to $1.1 million due to increased borrowings to fund the QuesTech acquisition.
- Liquidity: Cash and equivalents dropped significantly from $2.4 million to $54,000. Operating activities consumed $0.6 million in cash, compared to generating $0.7 million in the prior year, due to higher direct cost disbursements and receivable growth.
Outlook, Risks, and Unusual Items
- Pending Transactions:
- Acquisition: Executed a letter of intent to acquire XEN Corporation for $4.3 million in cash, expected to close in December 1999.
- Divestiture: Signed a letter of intent to sell the COMNET products group to Compuware Corporation for approximately $40 million, expected to generate a net-after-tax gain of $20 million.
- Year 2000 Compliance: The company reports full compliance for supported product versions and internal systems. However, risks remain regarding customer payment delays if government systems fail. Estimated costs for compliance upgrades were approximately $2 million, largely capitalized.
- Legal Proceedings: Ongoing litigation with the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT). CACI seeks approximately $2.9 million in damages; ADOT has counterclaimed for over $100 million. Settlement discussions are ongoing with no resolution.
- Forward-Looking Risks: Management cites risks related to government funding priorities, contract recompetes, and the ability to complete pending acquisitions and divestitures.
Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the closing status and final terms of the XEN Corporation acquisition and the COMNET divestiture to Compuware.
- Monitor the resolution of the Arizona Department of Transportation lawsuit, specifically the potential $100 million counterclaim.
- Assess the impact of the significant cash burn in operating activities and the low cash balance ($54,000) against the $125 million credit facility availability.
- Confirm the timeline for the expected $20 million gain from the COMNET sale and its effect on future debt reduction.
- Review the stability of Department of Defense revenue streams, which comprised 50.1% of total revenue.
