DynCorp International Inc.'s Parent Reports Results for First Quarter 2018

Delta Tucker Holdings, Inc. ("Holdings"), the parent of DynCorp International Inc. ("DI," and together with Holdings, the "Company"), a leading global services provider, today reported first quarter 2018 financial results.

First quarter 2018 revenue was $534.3 million, up 16.2% compared to $459.9 million recorded in the first quarter of 2017. The increase was primarily due to increased scope on the Logistics Civil Augmentation Program IV ("LOGCAP IV"), Afghanistan Life Support Services ("ALiSS") and T-6 Contractor Operated and Maintained Base Supply Bridge ("T-6 COMBS") programs and the G4 Worldwide Logistics Support, CLS Transport and Naval Test Wing Pacific O-Level Maintenance ("Naval Test Wing Pacific") contracts. The increase in revenue was partially offset by lower volume on the Bureau for International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs, Office of Aviation ("INL Air Wing") program. Net income attributable to Holdings for the first quarter of 2018 was $16.4 million compared to a net loss of $0.5 million in the first quarter of 2017. The Company reported Adjusted EBITDA of $47.2 million for the first quarter of 2018 compared to $36.5 million for the same period in 2017.

"New business wins, continued growth on our existing contracts and exceptional operational performance drove increases in top line, earnings, and Adjusted EBITDA margins," said George Krivo, Chief Executive Officer. "We are beginning 2018 with a very strong quarter and are confident in the outlook for the remainder of the year."

Reportable Segment Results

DynAviation

Revenue in the first quarter of 2018 was $317.2 million, up 10.2% compared with $287.9 million recorded in the same period in 2017 primarily due to the new CLS Transport and Naval Test Wing Pacific contracts and the T-6 COMBS contract. The increase in revenue was partially offset by decreased content on the INL Air Wing contract and the completion of the Multi Sensor Aerial Intelligence Surveillance and Reconnaissance ("MAISR") Operations and Sustainment program.

Adjusted EBITDA was $27.0 million, compared to $21.4 million for the first quarter of 2017. The increase is primarily due to more favorable terms on the T-6 COMBS contract, the performance on our Naval Test Wing Atlantic contract and productivity gains on a number of programs.

DynLogistics

Revenue in the first quarter of 2018 was $217.5 million, up 26.2% compared with $172.4 million recorded in the same period in 2017. The increase was primarily due to increased scope on both the LOGCAP IV program and ALiSS contract and the G4 Worldwide Logistics Support contract, partially offset by the completion of the Philippines Operations Support ("POS") contract.

Adjusted EBITDA was $22.5 million, compared to $17.5 million for the first quarter of 2017. The increase was primarily due to higher volume on our LOGCAP IV program and ALiSS contract and the performance on the G4 Worldwide Logistics Support contract.

Liquidity

Cash provided by operating activities at the end of the first quarter of 2018 was $8.0 million compared to cash used in operating activities of $15.0 million for the same period in 2017.

The unrestricted cash balance at quarter-end was $117.5 million. The Company reduced its debt through a $54.9 million Excess Cash Flow payment on March 21, 2018 and had no borrowings outstanding under the Company's revolving credit facility.

DSO was 49 and 54 days as of the end of the first quarter of 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, as the Company continued to focus on managing its customer payment cycles.

Bill Kansky, Chief Financial Officer, added, "Our strong first quarter performance, along with better visibility for the balance of the year, gives us increased confidence and allows us to raise our full year Adjusted EBITDA guidance range to $166 million to $170 million for 2018."

Reconciliation to GAAP

In addition to the Company's financial results reported in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") included in this press release, the Company has provided certain financial measures that are not calculated according to GAAP, including EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. We define EBITDA as GAAP net income (loss) attributable to the Company adjusted for interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by adjusting EBITDA for certain items from operations and certain other items as defined in our Indenture and New Senior Credit Facility. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures are useful in evaluating operating performance and are regularly used by security analysts, institutional investors and other interested parties in reviewing the Company. We believe that Adjusted EBITDA is useful in assessing our ability to generate cash to cover our debt obligations including interest and principal payments. Non-GAAP financial measures, such as EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not intended to be a substitute for any GAAP financial measure and, as calculated, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of the performance of other companies.

For a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures please see the financial schedules accompanying this release.

The Company does not provide reconciliations of guidance for Adjusted EBITDA to Operating Income, in reliance on the unreasonable efforts exception provided under Item 10(e)(1)(i)(B) of Regulation S-K. The Company is unable, without unreasonable efforts, to forecast certain items required to develop meaningful comparable GAAP financial measures. These items include other (loss) income and certain income/expense or gain/loss adjustments under the Company's debt agreements that are difficult to predict in advance in order to include in a GAAP estimate.
