- Strong Bookings, Pending Kadix Acquisition Prompt Company to Raise Projections - ANDOVER, Mass., July 31
ANDOVER, Mass., July 31 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Dynamics Research Corporation (Nasdaq: DRCO), a leading provider of innovative engineering, technical and information technology services and solutions to federal and state governments, today announced operating results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2008.
Financial Results
The Company reported revenue of $55.3 million and earnings of $0.17 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2008, compared with revenue of $58.0 million and earnings of $0.16 per diluted share for the same period in 2007.
For the six months ended June 30, 2008 revenue was $111.8 million compared with $114.8 million for the same period in 2007. For the six month period ended June 30, 2008 the net loss was $3.6 million, or $0.38 per diluted share, which included a first quarter 2008 provision for litigation of $8.8 million, which reduced earnings by $0.70 per diluted share. Excluding the litigation provisions in 2008 and 2007, net income would have been $3.1 million, or $0.32 per diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2008, compared with $2.7 million, or $0.29 per diluted share for the same period in 2007.
Business Highlights
"The second quarter 2008 results mark the eighth consecutive quarter of year-over-year earnings increases," said Jim Regan, DRC's chairman and chief executive officer. "We continue to transition our business mix away from lower-end small business set-aside advisory and assistance services work to higher-end value added services. Revenue growth in the first half of the year has been strong in the military training, homeland security, and state child welfare system businesses. The profit increase generated from this shift to a more favorable mix fully offsets the on-going loss of Advisory & Assistance Services work of approximately $5 million per quarter on the year-over-year comparisons with the prior year."
"In the business development area we have had another very successful quarter," Regan continued. "Our book-to bill ratio was 1.2 to 1, and our new business wins for the quarter were $26 million in total contract value. For the first half of the year the annual revenue value of our new business wins totaled an estimated $60 million, surpassing the $54 million total for all of 2007."
"Looking forward the outlook for growth in the military training, homeland security, federal civilian agency and state businesses remains strong. Further, the pending acquisition of Kadix Systems, LLC, announced today, which we plan to complete in the next few days, significantly strengthens our presence in a large high-growth market and will accelerate our market penetration with the Department of Homeland Security," Regan concluded.
Company Guidance
The Company's estimate for revenue for 2008, including the acquired Kadix operations from the expected date of acquisition, is in the range of $240 to $250 million. Regarding earnings for the year, excluding the $0.70 litigation provision taken in the first quarter, the Company anticipates results to be in the range of $0.72 to $0.78 per diluted share. For the third quarter of 2008 the Company anticipates revenue in the range of $63 to $65 million and earnings per diluted share of $0.17 to $0.20.
Conference Call
The Company will conduct a second quarter 2008 conference call on Thursday, July 31, 2008 at 4:30 p.m. ET. The call will be available via telephone at (877) 741-4251, and accessible via Web cast at www.drc.com.
