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

Revenues for the quarter increased $453 million, or 38%, compared to the prior year quarter due to the acquisition of Engility. Adjusting for the impact of acquired revenues, revenues contracted 1.5% due to acquisition related dis-synergies.

Operating income as a percentage of revenues of 5.8%, decreased from 6.2% in the comparable prior year period, due to increased intangible asset amortization, lower current quarter net profit write-ups and acquisition and integration costs, partially offset by cost synergies.

Net income attributable to common stockholders for the quarter increased $7 million as compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to increased operating income ($17 million, net of tax), partially offset by higher interest expense and a higher effective tax rate.

Adjusted EBITDA(1) as a percentage of revenues for the quarter remained consistent with the prior year. Cost synergies related to the acquisition were offset by lower net profit write-ups.

Diluted earnings per share for the quarter was $0.94 compared to $1.11 in the prior year quarter. Adjusted diluted earnings per share(1) for the quarter was $1.39 compared to $1.47 in the prior year quarter. The weighted-average diluted shares outstanding during the quarter increased to 58.3 million from 43.2 million during the prior year quarter, primarily due to shares issued for the acquisition of Engility.

(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 $116 million, an increase of $30 million compared to the same period in the prior year. The improvement is primarily due to cash provided from the operating activities of Engility.

During the quarter, SAIC deployed $24 million of capital, consisting of $21 million in cash dividends and $3 million of term loan repayment. There were no plan share repurchases in the third quarter. Not included in the third quarter capital deployment was the $100 million repayment of funds borrowed on our revolving credit facility during the second quarter to directly repurchase shares from a private equity shareholder.

New Business Awards

Net bookings for the quarter were approximately $2.2 billion, which reflects a book-to-bill ratio of 1.4. SAIC’s estimated backlog of signed business orders at the end of the quarter was approximately $14.5 billion of which $2.9 billion was funded.

SAIC was awarded the following contracts during the quarter:

U.S. Intelligence Community: SAIC was awarded a total of $582 million in contracts to support various U.S. space and intelligence community customers, including $68 million from the previously-announced Zeus contract awarded by the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency to continue the Innovative GEOINT Application Provider Program (IGAPP). SAIC will provide services and solutions to customers with requirements for highly-specialized technical and operational expertise in technology integration, engineering, IT modernization and mission operations.

Notable Recompete Awards:

The U.S. Army selected SAIC to modernize its IT infrastructure by migrating enterprise applications to a cloud environment. The contract was competed under the Information Technology Enterprise Solutions - 3 Services (ITES-3S) contract.

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.

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 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 significant acquisition of Engility. The recovery of acquisition and integration costs relate to acquisition and integration costs recovered through the Company's indirect rates in accordance with Cost Accounting Standards. 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 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 recent acquisition of Engility and is net of the recovery of acquisition and integration costs recovered through the Company's indirect rates in accordance with Cost Accounting Standards. Adjusted diluted earnings per share also excludes amortization of intangible assets because we do not have a history of significant acquisition activity, we do not acquire businesses on a predictable cycle, and the amount of an acquisition's purchase price allocated to intangible assets and the related amortization term are unique to each acquisition. We believe that this performance measure provides 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.

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.
