GTEC Reports First Quarter 2010 Financial Results
Revenues of $46 million
Earnings per share of $0.12
Contract awards of $50 million; Award momentum carries into Q2
Funded backlog increases by 23% sequentially
Maintains 2010 forward guidance
MCLEAN, Va., May 10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Global Defense Technology & Systems, Inc. (Nasdaq: GTEC), a provider of mission-critical, technology-based systems, solutions and services for national security agencies and programs of the U.S. government, today announced its first quarter 2010 financial results.
First Quarter 2010 Results – Above Expectations
Revenue for the first quarter 2010 was $45.9 million. The Company's revenue from the Technology and Intelligence Services (TIS) and Force Mobility and Modernization Systems (FMMS) segments was $24.6 million and $21.3 million, respectively. Total segment operating income was $4.1 million, or 9.0% of segment revenues. Unallocated corporate expenses totaled $2.7 million. This resulted in operating income for the first quarter 2010 of $1.4 million and diluted earnings per share (EPS) of $0.12.
"Our first quarter results are above our expectations despite a number of challenges. Delays in contract award timing for our FMMS business pushed some of our revenue into the rest of the year and the impact of the federal government shutdown due to February weather emergencies shortened our billable labor at TIS during the quarter," said John Hillen, President & CEO of GTEC. "Our business development pipeline continues to expand and the contract awards we received late in the quarter and early in the second quarter provide continued momentum to meet our objectives of 14 to 20 percent growth in 2010."
Business Highlights – Contract Awards Momentum
Contract awards totaled $50 million for the first quarter 2010. Two significant awards are highlighted below:
- $18.7 million contract award from U.S. Army for field feeding systems
- $10.4 million, 5-year follow-on contract with the Naval Research Laboratory
GTEC's contract momentum continued into the second quarter of 2010, with a $26.7 million order to provide additional field feeding systems to the U.S. Army. The Company has approximately $60 million in two expeditionary camp solutions orders that are expected to be awarded by the end of the second quarter. The Company's qualified business development pipeline is currently over $3 billion, a significant increase from $1.8 billion at the end of 2009. This growth is largely due to newly qualified opportunities in our FMMS pipeline, which represents $1.5 billion of the total qualified pipeline, and continued growth in our TIS pipeline. Additionally, the FMMS pipeline has over $1 billion of opportunities, which are scheduled to be awarded by June 30, 2011.
As of March 31, 2010, GTEC had total backlog of $602 million and funded backlog of $127 million, which is up over 23% from December 31, 2009.
Balance Sheet Metrics – Strong Cash Flow
As of March 31, 2010, GTEC had no net debt based on over $4 million in operating cash flow in the first quarter.
Jim Allen, Executive Vice President & CFO of GTEC, noted, "We had strong cash flow in the first quarter and expect to execute on our recent awards and backlog to deliver operating results in line with our 2010 growth objectives."
Forward Guidance – Maintains Full Year Outlook
GTEC's second quarter 2010 and full year 2010 guidance is summarized in the table below. GTEC's guidance does not include the assumption of any future acquisitions.
