Revenues for the quarter decreased $17 million, or 2%, compared to the prior year quarter primarily due to completion of contracts ($37 million), including the loss of an IT integration contract supporting the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) ($13 million), and other net contract declines across our portfolio ($21 million). These decreases were partially offset by higher revenue on new information technology contracts supporting the U.S. Army and federal civilian agencies ($30 million) and higher revenue on platform integration programs ($11 million). The Company's internal revenue contraction(1) for the second quarter was 1.4%.

Operating income as a percentage of revenues decreased to 5.5% of revenues, compared to 6.4% for the prior year quarter, primarily due to lower contract profitability largely driven by prior year write-ups on programs supporting federal civilian agencies, lower profitability on re-competed supply chain management contracts and higher severance and facility expense.

Net income for the quarter decreased $1 million from the comparable prior year period primarily due to lower operating income partially offset by lower income tax expense as a result of the adoption of ASU 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting ($4 million). Based on the required adoption of the new standard we recognized the excess tax benefits related to employee share-based payments as a reduction to income tax expense rather than as previously recorded to additional paid in capital in equity. Net income was also positively impacted by lower interest expense as a result of the refinancing of our debt in the third quarter of the prior fiscal year.

EBITDA(1) as a percentage of revenues for the quarter was 6.5%, compared to 7.5% for the prior year quarter, which was impacted by lower contract profitability largely driven by prior year write-ups on programs supporting federal civilian agencies, lower profitability on supply chain management contracts and higher severance and facility expense. These drivers were partially offset by the absence of acquisition and integration costs in the current period.

Diluted earnings per share was $0.80 for the quarter. Diluted earnings per share was impacted by the accounting change related to ASU 2016-09 by $0.09. The weighted-average diluted shares outstanding during the quarter was 44.7 million shares.

Cash Generation and Capital Deployment

Total cash flows used by operating activities for the second quarter were $35 million. The $58 million decrease in cash provided by operating activities compared to the prior year period was primarily due to a government customer payment system issue ($45 million). Subsequent to the end of the quarter the payment system issue was resolved and the cash collected. Also contributing to the decrease in cash provided by operating activities were strong customer collections in the prior year period ($34 million), which were partially offset by lower payments for income taxes ($11 million), prior year working capital investments in U.S. Marine Corps platform integration and IT services programs ($11 million) and excess tax benefits for stock based compensation in the current year quarter ($4 million).

During the quarter SAIC deployed $51 million of capital, consisting of $37 million in plan share repurchases (510 thousand shares) under SAIC's previously announced share repurchase program, and $14 million in cash dividends.

New Business Awards

Net bookings for the quarter were approximately $2.1 billion, which reflects a book-to-bill ratio of approximately 2.0. Bookings were substantially comprised of re-compete awards during the quarter. SAIC's estimated backlog of signed business orders at the end of the quarter was approximately $9.2 billion of which $1.8 billion was funded.

SAIC was awarded the following contracts during the quarter:

Notable Protect Awards (maintaining our existing contract base):

Total backlog     $ 9,241     $ 8,196     $ 8,020
 

Backlog represents the estimated amount of future revenues to be recognized under negotiated contracts and task orders as work is performed and excludes contract awards which have been protested by competitors until the protest is resolved in our favor. SAIC segregates backlog into two categories, funded backlog and negotiated unfunded backlog. Funded backlog for contracts with government agencies primarily represents contracts for which funding is appropriated less revenues previously recognized on these contracts, and does not include the unfunded portion of contracts where funding is incrementally appropriated or authorized by the U.S. government and other customers even though the contract may call for performance over a number of years. Funded backlog for contracts with non-government agencies represents the estimated value of contracts which may cover multiple future years under which SAIC is obligated to perform, less revenues previously recognized on these contracts. Negotiated unfunded backlog represents the estimated future revenues to be earned from negotiated contracts for which funding has not been appropriated or authorized, and unexercised priced contract options. Negotiated unfunded backlog does not include any estimate of future potential task orders expected to be awarded under indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity (IDIQ), U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) schedules or other master agreement contract vehicles.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

(Unaudited)

 

This schedule describes the non-GAAP financial measures included in this earnings release. While we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures may be useful in evaluating our financial information, they should be considered as supplemental in nature and not as a substitute for financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations, definitions, and how we believe these measures are useful to management and investors are provided below. Other companies may define similar measures differently.

Internal revenue growth (contraction)(1)           $ (15 )   $ (35 )
Internal revenue growth (contraction) percentage (1.4 %) (1.6 %)
 

We utilize internal revenue growth (or internal revenue contraction if negative) to evaluate revenue growth. Internal revenue growth is calculated by comparing our reported revenues for the current year to the reported revenues for the prior year comparable period adjusted to include any pre-acquisition historical revenues of acquired businesses. We also adjust current and prior year revenue to exclude the impact of revenue performed by our former parent company, Leidos Holdings, Inc. ("former Parent") since revenues on pre-separation joint work are recorded equal to cost and are expected to decline over time. For fiscal 2017, a 53-week fiscal year, we have also adjusted revenue to exclude the estimated impact of the additional week in order to facilitate comparison to the current year period. We estimate the revenue impact of the additional week by dividing the first quarter fiscal 2017 revenues by the number of days in the first quarter and multiplying that amount by the number of additional days in the first quarter of fiscal 2017. We believe that adjusting prior year revenues to reflect the impact of the additional week improves comparability since differences in the number of days generally have a direct impact on the amount of revenues earned during the respective periods. We believe that internal revenue growth provides management and investors with useful information in assessing trends on how successful the Company has been in growing revenues as we develop our base business and access new markets and capabilities provided by acquisitions.

EBITDA is a performance measure that is calculated by taking net income and excluding interest expense, provision for income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted operating income are performance measures that exclude acquisition and integration costs that we do not consider to be indicative of our ongoing operating performance as they relate to the Company's significant acquisition of Scitor. We believe that these performance measures provide management and investors with useful information in assessing trends in our ongoing operating performance and may provide greater visibility in understanding the long-term financial performance of the Company.

Free cash flow is calculated by taking cash flows provided by operating activities less expenditures for property, plant, and equipment.

This measure should not be considered as a measure of residual cash flow available for discretionary purposes.
