(1)		Non-GAAP measure, see Schedule 5 for information about this measure.

Revenues for the quarter increased $32 million, or 2.8%, compared to the prior year quarter due to newly awarded contracts ($54 million), which includes an information technology (IT) integration contract supporting state and local customers, and increased orders in our supply chain portfolio ($24 million). These increases were partially offset by completion of contracts and other net decreases across our portfolio ($46 million).

Operating income as a percentage of revenues of 6.2%, was consistent with 6.3% for the prior year quarter.

Adjusted operating income⁽¹⁾ as a percentage of revenues increased to 7.4%, compared to 6.4% for the prior year quarter due to improved performance across our portfolio ($22 million), inclusive of newly awarded contracts, and higher net favorable changes in estimates related to performance obligations satisfied over time ($14 million). These improvements were partially offset by an increase in our inventory provision ($25 million).

Net income for the quarter increased $5 million as compared to the same period in the prior year due to a lower effective tax rate, partially offset by expenses associated with the debt refinancing activities in the current quarter.

Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ as a percentage of revenues for the quarter increased to 8.3%, compared to 7.4% for the prior year quarter, consistent with adjusted operating income⁽¹⁾.

Diluted earnings per share was $1.11 for the quarter and adjusted diluted earnings per share⁽¹⁾ was $1.35. The weighted-average diluted shares outstanding during the quarter was 43.2 million shares.

(1)		Non-GAAP measure, see Schedule 5 for information about this measure.

Cash Generation and Capital Deployment

Cash flows provided by operating activities for the third quarter were $86 million, compared to $80 million during the same period in the prior year. The improvement is primarily due to higher customer collections, partially offset by an increase in vendor payments and payments for acquisition and integration costs.

During the quarter SAIC deployed $13 million of capital in cash dividends. No plan share repurchases were made during the quarter pending the close of the Engility acquisition.

New Business Awards

Net bookings for the quarter were approximately $1.2 billion, which reflects a book-to-bill ratio of 1.0. SAIC’s estimated backlog of signed business orders at the end of the quarter was approximately $10.4 billion of which $2.4 billion was funded. Although not contributing to bookings for the quarter, SAIC was awarded several single-award indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity vehicles with $1.2 billion of ceiling value.

BACKLOG
(Unaudited)
The estimated value of our total backlog as of the dates presented was:
		November 2, 2018				August 3, 2018				February 2, 2018
		(in millions)
Funded backlog		$	2,394			$	2,099			$	2,012
Negotiated unfunded backlog		8,051				8,355				8,215
Total backlog		$	10,445			$	10,454			$	10,227

Backlog represents the estimated amount of future revenues to be recognized under negotiated contracts and task orders as work is performed and excludes contract awards which have been protested by competitors until the protest is resolved in our favor. SAIC segregates backlog into two categories, funded backlog and negotiated unfunded backlog. Funded backlog for contracts with government agencies primarily represents contracts for which funding is appropriated less revenues previously recognized on these contracts, and does not include the unfunded portion of contracts where funding is incrementally appropriated or authorized by the U.S. government and other customers even though the contract may call for performance over a number of years. Funded backlog for contracts with non-government agencies represents the estimated value of contracts which may cover multiple future years under which SAIC is obligated to perform, less revenues previously recognized on these contracts. Negotiated unfunded backlog represents the estimated future revenues to be earned from negotiated contracts for which funding has not been appropriated or authorized, and unexercised priced contract options. Negotiated unfunded backlog does not include any estimate of future potential task orders expected to be awarded under indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity (IDIQ), U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) schedules or other master agreement contract vehicles.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

(Unaudited)

This schedule describes the non-GAAP financial measures included in this earnings release. While we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures may be useful in evaluating our financial information, they should be considered as supplemental in nature and not as a substitute for financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations, definitions, and how we believe these measures are useful to management and investors are provided below. Other companies may define similar measures differently.

Adjusted operating income as a percentage of revenues		7.4		%		6.4		%		6.5		%		5.9		%

EBITDA is a performance measure that is calculated by taking net income and excluding interest, provision for income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted operating income are performance measures that exclude restructuring and acquisition and integration costs that we do not consider to be indicative of our ongoing operating performance. The acquisition and integration costs relate to the Company's pending significant acquisition of Engility. The restructuring costs excluded relate to the Company's plan in fiscal 2018 to restructure certain aspects of its operations and is the only significant restructuring since we began operating as an independent company five years ago. We believe that these performance measures provide management and investors with useful information in assessing trends in our ongoing operating performance and may provide greater visibility in understanding the long-term financial performance of the Company.

Adjusted diluted earnings per share is a performance measure that excludes restructuring and acquisition and integration costs that we do not consider to be indicative of our ongoing operating performance. The acquisition and integration costs relate to the Company's pending significant acquisition of Engility. The restructuring costs excluded relate to the Company's plan in fiscal 2018 to restructure certain aspects of its operations and is the only significant restructuring since we began operating as an independent company five years ago.

Free cash flow is calculated by taking cash flows provided by operating activities less expenditures for property, plant, and equipment. We believe that free cash flow provides management and investors with useful information in assessing trends in our cash flows and in comparing them to other peer companies, many of whom present a similar non-GAAP liquidity measure. This measure should not be considered as a measure of residual cash flow available for discretionary purposes.
