-- First quarter 2015 revenue of $403 million

-- Adjusted diluted EPS of $0.40 and adjusted EBITDA of $33 million

CHANTILLY, Va., May 11, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Engility Holdings, Inc. EGL today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2015, which include one month of TASC's performance and $28 million of acquisition-related expenses.

First Quarter 2015 Results

For the first quarter of 2015, the Company reported total revenue of $403 million. GAAP operating income was $0.3 million and GAAP operating margin was 0.1%. GAAP net loss attributable to Engility was $13 million, or $0.55 per diluted share. Cash flow used in operating activities was $48 million, which reflects $46 million of various acquisition-related payments in the quarter.

Adjusted operating income was $29 million and adjusted operating margin was 7.1%. Adjusted net income attributable to Engility was $10 million, or $0.40 per diluted share. Adjusted EBITDA was $33 million.

Adjusted net income, operating margin and EBITDA excludes $23 million of TASC acquisition and integration costs, and $1 million of restructuring and legal and settlement costs. Adjusted operating margin and net income also excludes $4 million of amortization of intangible asset expenses associated with the TASC and DRC acquisitions. In addition, adjusted net income excludes $5 million of bank fees previously capitalized and included in interest expense. Information about our use of non-GAAP financial information is provided below under "Non-GAAP Measures."

"I am pleased with our performance in the first quarter," said Tony Smeraglinolo, President and CEO of Engility. "We achieved financial results that were in-line with our expectations, and for the third consecutive quarter, we reported a funded order book-to-bill ratio that exceeded 1.0x. We also closed the TASC acquisition and our integration efforts are progressing well, which should enable us to achieve our synergy targets. While our proposal activity remains strong, we continue to encounter significant headwinds associated with the extended length of time it takes from proposal submission to contract award to revenue generation."

Key Performance Indicators for the First Quarter of 2015

Contract funded orders were $430 million and the funded order book-to-bill ratio was 1.1x.
Funded backlog was $938 million.
Days sales outstanding (DSO), net of advanced payments and pro forma to include three months of revenue from TASC, was 63 days.

Fiscal Year 2015 Guidance

We are reiterating the fiscal year 2015 financial guidance we issued on March 24, 2015 based on our first quarter 2015 financial results and our outlook for the remainder of 2015. The table below summarizes our fiscal year 2015 guidance and includes approximately 10 months of TASC's expected financial results since the acquisition closed on February 26, 2015.

		Outlook for Fiscal Year 2015
Revenue		$2.0 billion - $2.3 billion
GAAP Diluted EPS ⁽¹⁾		($0.05) - $0.45
Adjusted Diluted EPS ⁽¹⁾		$1.70 - $2.20
Adjusted EBITDA ⁽¹⁾		$190 million - $220 million
GAAP operating cash flow		$50 million - $60 million

⁽¹⁾ 2015 GAAP and adjusted diluted EPS guidance assumes weighted average outstanding shares of approximately 34 million. GAAP diluted EPS assumes a full-year effective tax rate of approximately 35 percent excluding non-deductible one-time costs associated with the TASC acquisition. Adjusted diluted EPS assumes 2015 net cash tax payments of approximately $5 million. Our adjusted diluted EPS and adjusted EBITDA guidance excludes approximately $70 million to $75 million of amortization of acquired intangible assets, and deal and integration costs associated with the TASC acquisition.

Non-GAAP Measures

The tables under "Engility Holdings, Inc. Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures" present Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Operating Margin, Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization (EBITDA), Adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Diluted EPS, reconciled to their most directly comparable GAAP measure. These financial measures are calculated and presented on the basis of methodologies other than in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("Non-GAAP Measures"). Engility has provided these Non-GAAP Measures to adjust for, among other things, the impact of transaction and integration costs and amortization expenses related to our acquisitions of TASC and DRC, as well as restructuring and legal and settlement costs. These items have been adjusted because they are not considered core to the Company's business or otherwise not considered operational or because these charges are non-cash or non-recurring. The Company presents these Non-GAAP Measures because management believes that they are meaningful to understanding Engility's performance during the periods presented and the Company's ongoing business. Non-GAAP Measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and therefore are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled metrics or the financial results of other companies. These Non-GAAP Measures should be considered a supplement to, not a substitute for, or superior to, the corresponding financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.
