Vectrus posts solid second quarter 2015 financial results

Core business1 revenue increased 15%

Awarded positions on three indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contracts; new programs now underway

Free cash flow2 improvements enabled $6 million voluntary debt payment

Raising the lower end of 2015 revenue and adjusted EPS2 guidance


COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., Aug. 5, 2015 — Vectrus, Inc. (NYSE:VEC) announced second quarter 2015 results which included revenue of $309.5 million, operating income of $10.8 million and diluted earnings per share of $0.56. As of June 26, 2015, year-to-date net cash used in operating activities was $0.2 million and free cash flow use was $0.9 million, which represents an incremental change of $26.8 million in the second quarter.
“Our strong second quarter results were highlighted by 15% growth in the core business when compared to second quarter 2014,” said Ken Hunzeker, chief executive officer and president of Vectrus. "Our new Turkey-Spain Base Maintenance and Army Corps of Engineers IT contracts are now contributing to revenue as we expected, and we are pleased with the opportunities our recent IDIQ wins represent.”

Recent Contract Awards

During the quarter, Vectrus secured prime positions on three multiple award, IDIQ contracts:

AFCAP IV (Air Force Contract Augmentation Program) - Vectrus was one of eight companies selected for a prime position on the approximately $5 billion multiple award IDIQ contract that has an estimated completion date of September 2021.
 
TACOM TS3 (U.S. Army Tank-automotive and Armaments Command Strategic Service Solutions Equipment Related Services contract) - Vectrus was one of 18 large service providers selected for a prime position on the $1.1 billion multiple award IDIQ contract that has an estimated completion date of May 2023.

SeaPort-e (Seaport Enhanced) - Vectrus was awarded a position on the Navy’s SeaPort-e acquisition program for services procurements. This award creates a distinct position for Vectrus as a services provider for the Navy.

Vectrus was awarded a $62 million bridge contract to extend existing services at Maxwell Air Force Base. The one-year bridge extends into May 2016 and has the potential for an additional two, three-month option periods.

Additionally, subsequent to the end of the second quarter, Vectrus received a $221 million extension to the U.S. Army base operations and security support services contract in Kuwait. The six-month extension extends into March 2016.


Core Business and New Contracts Continue to Progress

"Our long-term strategy is yielding visible results. Core business revenue was $263.6 million for the second quarter, and Afghanistan revenue in the second quarter was $45.9 million," said Hunzeker. "We expect contributions from new business will continue to drive growth in our core business and will offset expected declines in Afghanistan-related work in 2015.”
 
As previously reported, the Turkey-Spain Base Maintenance Contract reached full operating capability at the beginning of the second quarter. The Army Corps of Engineers Enterprise Information Management and Information Technology Support Services contract also contributed to second quarter results, and achieved full operating capability in late July.

Second Quarter 2015 Results
Revenue $309.5 million
Operating income $10.8 million
Operating margin 3.5 percent
Diluted earnings per share $0.56

Second quarter 2015 revenue of $309.5 million declined $3.4 million or 1.1 percent compared to the second quarter 2014. On an adjusted basis, second quarter 2015 revenue2 of $309.5 million increased $8.0 million or 2.7 percent compared to the second quarter 2014.

Exhibit 99.1 

"In the second quarter, we were successful in achieving adjusted revenue growth after several periods of decline," said Matt Klein, chief financial officer at Vectrus. "We are pleased with our progress and expect to build from this solid foundation in the coming quarters."
Programs based in Afghanistan contributed $45.9 million of revenue in the second quarter 2015, down $27.2 million compared to the second quarter 2014.
Operating income was $10.8 million or 3.5 percent operating margin in the second quarter 2015, compared to $9.4 million or 3.0 percent in the second quarter 2014.
Second quarter 2015 diluted earnings per share were $0.56 compared to $0.59 in 2014 and adjusted diluted earnings per share2 were $0.56 compared to $0.81 in 2014.
Year-to-date, June 26, 2015, net cash used in operating activities was $0.2 million compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $2.6 million during the same period in 2014. Free cash flow use was $0.9 million year-to-date June 26, 2015, compared to $1.6 million provided during the same period in 2014.
"Our free cash flow improved $27 million compared to the first quarter," said Klein. "This enabled us to make a voluntary debt payment of $6 million in the quarter."

For the quarter ending June 26, 2015, book-to-bill3 ratio was 1.06x. The Company ended the quarter with total backlog of $2.5 billion. Funded backlog at June 26, 2015, was $0.7 billion.

Key Performance Indicators and Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The primary financial performance measures Vectrus uses to manage its business and monitor results of operations are revenue trends and operating income trends. In addition, we consider adjusted revenue, adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, and free cash flow, to be useful to management and investors in evaluating our operating performance for the periods presented, and to provide a tool for evaluating our ongoing operations. This information can assist investors in assessing our financial performance and measures our ability to generate capital for deployment among competing strategic alternatives and initiatives.
Adjusted revenue, adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, and free cash flow, however, are not measures of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP) and should not be considered a substitute for revenue, operating income, net income, diluted earnings per share, or net cash provided by operating activities as determined in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of adjusted revenue, adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, and free cash flow are provided below.
“Adjusted revenue” is defined as revenue adjusted to exclude the TARS program revenue which has been retained by Exelis.
“Adjusted operating income” is defined as net income, adjusted to exclude income taxes, interest income (expense), TARS program operating income, and separation costs incurred to become a public company.
“Adjusted operating margin” is defined as net income, adjusted to exclude income taxes, interest income (expense), TARS program operating income, and separation costs incurred to become a public company, divided by adjusted revenue.
"Adjusted net income" is defined as net income, adjusted to exclude TARS program operating income and separation costs incurred to become a public company, net of taxes.
"Adjusted diluted earnings per share" is defined as net income, adjusted to exclude TARS program operating income and separation costs incurred to become a public company, net of taxes divided by the weighted average diluted common shares outstanding.
“Free cash flow” is defined as GAAP net cash (used in) and provided by operating activities less capital expenditures.
"Adjusted funded orders" is defined as funded orders adjusted to exclude the TARS program.
"Core business revenue" is defined as revenue (or adjusted revenue) less Afghanistan programs revenue.
