ARLINGTON, Va., April 29 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- CACI International Inc

Third Quarter Results
For the third quarter of Fiscal Year 2009 (FY09), we reported record revenue
of $674.0 million, up 6.3 percent over third quarter of Fiscal Year 2008
(FY08) revenue of $634.2 million. The increase in revenue during the quarter
was driven by organic growth of 5.5 percent. Organic growth for federal
government revenue in the quarter was 6.7 percent. Operating income for the
quarter was $45.0 million, up 3.5 percent compared with operating income of
$43.5 million in the year earlier quarter. The operating margin was 6.7
percent compared with 6.9 percent in the third quarter of FY08. Income before
taxes for the quarter was $39.7 million, 8.2 percent higher than what was
reported in the third quarter of FY08. Our effective tax rate increased to
41.0 percent from 39.3 percent in the year earlier quarter. During the third
quarter of FY09, our effective tax rate continued to be negatively impacted by
non-deductible losses on assets invested in our deferred compensation plan.
Net income for the third quarter was $23.4 million, up 5.1 percent compared
with $22.3 million for the third quarter of FY08. Diluted earnings per share
were $0.77, up 5.7 percent, compared with $0.73 per diluted share in the year
earlier quarter. Cash generated by operations was $80.1 million, up 27.7
percent compared with $62.8 million in the year earlier quarter. Days sales
outstanding at the end of the quarter were 61 compared with 67 days at the end
of the third quarter of FY08. Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation
and amortization (EBITDA), a non-GAAP measure, were $56.7 million in the
quarter compared with EBITDA of $55.8 million in the third quarter of FY08.
Third Quarter Highlights
Major highlights and accomplishments during the third quarter of FY09 include:

Executive Office for Simulation, Training and Instrumentation
Omnibus Contract II (PEO STOC II) contract vehicle with an overall

CEO Commentary
Commenting on the results, Paul Cofoni, CACI's President and CEO, said, "We
are very pleased with our record third quarter results: revenue, net income,
earnings per share, operating cash flow, and contract funding orders. Our U.S.
Operations turned in another solid quarter, and our United Kingdom operations
grew revenue and earnings sequentially. Our positive performance through the
first three quarters of the fiscal year validates our fundamental strategy of
focusing our services and solutions on the key areas of defense, intelligence,
and homeland security. We expect the government to continue to rely on the
valuable and proven contributions of contractors in these areas to counter the
very real and dangerous external threats that still face our nation.
"Throughout our history, we have consistently positioned ourselves with
high-value solutions in areas requiring the highest levels of thought
leadership and IT and professional services capability. These are areas that
demand the very best services and solutions. CACI's strategy is to provide
customers with the best solutions while assuring American citizens of the most
effective use of their hard-earned dollars. Our solutions are aligned with the
administration's focus on cyber security, smart power, and IT modernization,
where we expect our services to remain in high demand. The Intelligence
Community is another well-funded and high-demand / high-value area that
continues to provide opportunities for CACI. We are particularly proud of our
ISR and document exploitation capabilities, which bring critical value to our
clients.
"Over our 47-year history, we've grown with every administration and adjusted
to market changes with new solutions that meet client requirements while
enhancing shareholder value. Our forward indicators are strong, we are winning
Tier 1 contracts at a record rate, and have a robust pipeline of
opportunities. Our balance sheet, backlog, and cash flow are rock solid. CACI
leads in our markets, brings value to our clients, delivers on our
commitments, and builds long-term shareholder trust and value."
Nine Months FY09 Results
For the first nine months of FY09, we reported record revenue of $2.00
billion, up 13.4 percent over the first nine months of FY08 revenue of $1.77
billion. Operating income in the first nine months of FY09 was $131.5
million, up 12.9 percent, compared with $116.5 million reported in the first
nine months of FY08. The operating margin was 6.6 percent for the first nine
months of FY09, the same as in the year earlier period. Income before taxes
for the first nine months of FY09 was $114.4 million, 17.0 percent higher than
what was reported in the first nine months of FY08. The effective tax rate
for the first nine months of FY09 was 41.9 percent versus 38.9 percent in the
year earlier period. Net income for the first nine months of FY09 was $66.5
million, up 11.3 percent, compared with net income of $59.8 million for the
first nine months of FY08. Diluted earnings per share were $2.18, up 11.7
percent, compared with $1.96 per diluted share in the year earlier period.
Operating cash flow for the first nine months of FY09 was $94.5 million, up
20.2 percent, compared with $78.6 million for the similar period in FY08.
EBITDA for the first nine months was $166.7 million, an increase of 9.8
percent over EBITDA of $151.8 million in the first nine months of FY08.
CACI Revises its FY09 Earnings Guidance Range Upwards
We are raising the lower end of the range of our Fiscal Year 2009 earnings
guidance. The table below summarizes the guidance ranges for FY09:
(In millions, except for earnings per share) Fiscal Year 2009
Revenue $2,650 - $2,750
Net income $90.0 - $93.0
Diluted earnings per share $2.95 - $3.05
Diluted weighted average shares 30.5
We are raising the lower end of the ranges of our net income and diluted
earnings per share guidance as a result of stronger third quarter sales for
our United Kingdom subsidiary and an estimated lower full year tax rate of 42
percent. This guidance does not include any contributions from future
acquisitions.
This guidance represents our views as of April 29, 2009. Investors are
reminded that actual results may differ from these estimates for the reasons
described in this release and in our filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.

Reconciliation of Total Revenue Growth and Organic Revenue Growth
(Unaudited)
We are presenting organic revenue growth to reflect the effect of
acquisitions on total revenue growth. Revenue generated from the date a
business is acquired through the first anniversary of that date is
considered acquired revenue growth. All remaining revenue growth is
considered organic. We believe that this non-GAAP financial measure
provides investors with useful information to evaluate the growth rate of
our core business. This non-GAAP measure should not be considered in
isolation or as a substitute for performance measures prepared in
accordance with GAAP.

Reconciliation of Net Income and Earnings before Interest, Taxes,
Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA)
(Unaudited)
EBITDA, a measure used by management to evaluate operating performance, is
defined by us as GAAP net income plus net interest expense, income taxes,
and depreciation and amortization. We believe that this non-GAAP measure
is a valuable indicator of our operating performance. EBITDA is a
commonly used non-GAAP measure when comparing our results with those of
other companies, but EBITDA as defined by us may not be computed in the
same manner as similarly titled measures used by other companies. The
EBITDA margin is EBITDA divided by revenue. These non-GAAP measures
