“Our contracted services in support of the DoD and other federal government clients have been the largest contributor to our revenue increases for the third quarter and year to date,” said Maurice “Mo” Gauthier, VSE CEO, President and COO. “Recent awards in our Federal Services Group position us well for steady improvement in our federal markets based on a strong booking quarter. We also are pleased to report increases in both revenue and operating income for our Aviation Group for the third quarter.”

Revenues were $172.8 million in the third quarter of 2016 compared to $137.4 million in the third quarter of 2015. For the first nine months, revenues were $476.9 million in 2016 compared to $389.3 million in 2015. The increases were primarily due to the revenue increase from our Federal Services Group. Our Supply Chain Management and Aviation groups also contributed to revenue growth.

Operating income was $13.6 million for the third quarter of 2016 compared to $13.2 million in the third quarter of 2015. For the first nine months, operating income was $38.2 million in 2016 compared to $35.4 million in 2015. Our Aviation Group was the largest contributor to the increase in our operating income.

Net income was $7.1 million for the third quarter of 2016, or $0.65 per diluted share, compared to $6.5 million, or $0.60 per diluted share for the third quarter of 2015. Net income was $19.6 million for the first nine months of 2016, or $1.81 per diluted share, compared to $17.2 million, or $1.59 per diluted share for the first nine months of 2015.

Bookings in our Federal Services and IT, Energy and Management Consulting groups were $405 million for the first nine months of 2016 compared to revenue for these groups of $225 million for the period. Funded contract backlog at September 30, 2016 was $400 million, compared to $294 million at June 30, 2016 and $214 million at September 30, 2015.
