SAN DIEGO, May 07, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kratos Defense & Security Solutions, Inc. (Nasdaq:KTOS), a leading National Security Solutions provider, today reported its first quarter 2020 financial results.  For the first quarter of 2020, Kratos reported Revenues of $168.9 million, a 5.3% increase over the first quarter of 2019, and first quarter 2020 Adjusted EBITDA of $16.3 million, a 6.9% decrease over the first quarter of 2019, reflecting increased research and development investments of approximately $1.8 million, primarily in the Company’s space and satellite communications business related to investments in new software-based and open space platforms and technologies.    Operating Income of $4.7 million for the first quarter of 2020 includes an increase in non-cash stock based compensation expense of $2.1 million and an increase in depreciation expense of $0.8 million.  First quarter 2020 Cash Flow generated from Operations was $4.0 million, and Free Cash Flow from Operations was a use of $2.4 million after the funding of $6.4 million of capital expenditures.  Cash used to fund strategic acquisitions was $14.2 million.  Adjusted EPS* was $0.09 for the first quarter of 2020, compared to $0.11 for the first quarter of 2019.  Kratos reported a first quarter 2020 Net Loss of $0.2 million, and GAAP EPS was a loss of $0.00 for the first quarter of 2020.

For the first quarter of 2020, Kratos’ Unmanned Systems Segment (KUS) reported Revenues of $42.0 million, an increase of $7.1 million, or 20.3%, over the first quarter of 2019, and Adjusted EBITDA of $2.3 million, an increase of 15.0%, over first quarter 2019 Adjusted EBITDA of $2.0 million.  KUS’s book-to-bill ratio for the first quarter of 2020 was 1.5 to 1.0 and for the last twelve months ended March 29, 2020 was 1.2 to 1.0.  Total backlog for KUS at the end of the first quarter of 2020 was $174.4 million.  

For the first quarter of 2020, Kratos’ Government Solutions Segment (KGS) reported Revenues of $126.9 million, up from $125.5 million in the first quarter of 2019.  Organic revenue growth in the first quarter of 2020 in our Microwave Products and Rocket System businesses and the inclusion of a full quarter’s financial performance of our turbine technologies business, were offset primarily by expected declines in our training solutions business and legacy government services business.  First quarter 2020 KGS Adjusted EBITDA of $14.0 million decreased from $15.5 million in the first quarter of 2019, primarily as a result of a less favorable mix of revenues.  For the first quarter of 2020, KGS reported bookings of $151.0 million and a book-to-bill ratio of 1.2 to 1.0, with bookings of $542.1 million and a book to bill ratio of 1.0 to 1.0, in the last twelve months ended March 29, 2020.

For the first quarter of 2020, Kratos reported consolidated bookings of $213.1 million and a book-to-bill ratio of 1.3 to 1.0, with bookings of $751.1 million and a book-to-bill ratio of 1.0 to 1.0, in the last twelve months ended March 29, 2020. Backlog at March 29, 2020 was $646.8 million, up $45.6 million, or 7.6%, from the backlog at December 29, 2019.  Kratos’ bid and proposal pipeline remained consistent as compared to year-end, at $7.7 billion at March 29, 2020.   

Eric DeMarco, Kratos’ President and CEO, said, “As Kratos addresses the challenges presented by COVID-19, we remain focused on providing mission critical, affordable, leading technology systems and solutions for our national security mission, while maintaining a safe and healthy environment for our employees.  I am extremely proud of the commitment of Kratos employees to our customers and country and the value they continue to create for our Company and its shareholders in the current environment.  In the first quarter, Kratos Unmanned Systems, Space and Satellite Communications, Microwave Electronics, C5ISR and Rocket System DoD focused businesses performed particularly well, with strong Q1 bookings providing increased future visibility.”

Mr. DeMarco concluded, “Since our last financial report, we have continued to execute our business plan, including important progress with Kratos’ tactical unmanned aerial drone system programs and initiatives, including Valkyrie, Gremlins, Air Wolf, Thanatos and Mako.   Kratos is now involved in several new major DoD programs, including OPIR, GBSD, ABMS, Skyborg, Golden Horde and Vanguard, which we believe reflects the alignment of our business portfolio with the future national security priorities of the U.S. and its Allies.”

Financial Guidance

We are providing initial Second Quarter 2020 guidance for Revenues of $160 million to $170 million and Adjusted EBITDA of $12 million to $16 million.

We are affirming our full year 2020 Adjusted EBITDA guidance of $72 million to $78 million and we are affirming our full year 2020 Free Cash Flow guidance of generation of $7 million to a use of $18 million, including capital expenditures of $40 to $45 million.

We are adjusting our full year 2020 revenue guidance from $740 million to $780 million, to $720 million to $760 million, primarily to reflect the expected impact of COVID-19 on our business, vendors, suppliers and customers (1), the non-renewal of an option on a sole source training contract by an international customer and the extension through the end of 2020 of a previously protested U.S. Navy/RSNF Training Contract.  Including our first quarter bookings, our affirmed Adjusted EBITDA guidance reflects an overall forecasted improved revenue mix and profitability in our DoD and National Security business areas, including in our space, satellite, unmanned systems and microwave electronic operations.

Kratos’ fiscal year 2020 guidance excludes any potential contribution from expected Valkyrie or other tactical drone production or system contracts, with expected orders to be taken into consideration and our financial forecast adjusted once such contracts/orders are received and the related financial contribution can be estimated. 

The 2020 capital expenditure forecast currently includes expected outlays of $15 to $17 million associated with the production of 12 Valkyrie aircraft prior to receipt of expected customer award(s); therefore, these aircraft will be reflected as Company-owned tactical drones until receipt of the related customer award(s), and approximately $5 million related to the production of Company-owned aerial target drone systems in preparation for fulfilling forecasted customer requirements.  Kratos will adjust/reduce these initial forecasted capital expenditure outlays once expected customer orders are received and the related financial contribution can be estimated.

The Company will provide additional information in its earnings call today. 

(1) The company's 2020 financial outlook includes updated guidance for net sales reflecting the currently expected impacts related to COVID-19. The ultimate impact of the Global COVID-19 Pandemic on the company's financial outlook for 2020 remains uncertain.

Management will discuss the Company’s first quarter 2020 financial results, as well as its second quarter and full year 2020 guidance on a conference call beginning at 2:00 p.m. Pacific (5:00 p.m. Eastern) today. Analysts and institutional investors may participate in the conference call by dialing (866) 393-0674, and referencing the call by ID number 8476815.

Note Regarding Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This news release contains non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted earnings per share (computed using income from continuing operations before income taxes, excluding depreciation, amortization of intangible assets, amortization of capitalized contract and development costs, stock-based compensation expense, acquisition and restructuring related items and other, which includes but is not limited to legal related items and foreign transaction gains and losses, less the estimated tax cash payments) and Adjusted EBITDA (which includes net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interest and excludes, among other things, losses and gains from discontinued operations, acquisition and restructuring related items,  stock compensation expense, foreign transaction gains and losses, and the associated margin rates). Additional non-GAAP financial measures include Free Cash Flow from Operations and Adjusted EBITDA related to our KUS and KGS businesses. Kratos believes this information is useful to investors because it provides a basis for measuring the Company’s available capital resources, the actual and forecasted operating performance of the Company’s business and the Company’s cash flow, excluding non-recurring items and non-cash items that would normally be included in the most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company’s management uses these non-GAAP financial measures along with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures in evaluating the Company’s actual and forecasted operating performance, capital resources and cash flow. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information presented in compliance with GAAP, and investors should carefully evaluate the Company’s financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP and reconciliations to those financial statements. In addition, non-GAAP financial measures as reported by the Company may not be comparable to similarly titled amounts reported by other companies. As appropriate, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures and information reconciling these non-GAAP financial measures to the Company’s financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP are included in this news release.

*Adjusted earnings per share (Adjusted EPS) excludes income (loss) from discontinued operations, depreciation, non-cash intangible amortization expense, as the Company has historically been acquisitive, non-cash amortization of capitalized contract and development costs, non-cash stock-based compensation costs, foreign transaction gains and losses, certain non-recurring items such as acquisition and restructuring related items and other, including legal fees, and includes cash actually expected to be paid for income taxes on continuing operations, reflecting the benefit of the Company’s net operating loss carry forwards of over $300 million. Kratos believes that reporting adjusted earnings per share is a meaningful metric to present the Company’s financial results.

Unaudited Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures
Note: (1) Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure defined as GAAP net income (loss) attributable to Kratos adjusted for net income (loss) attributable to noncontrolling interest, income (loss) from discontinued operations, net interest expense, provision for income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense of intangible assets, amortization of capitalized contract and development costs, stock-based compensation, acquisition and restructuring related items and other, and foreign transaction gain (loss).
Adjusted EBITDA as calculated by us may be calculated differently than Adjusted EBITDA for other companies. We have provided Adjusted EBITDA because we believe it is a commonly used measure of financial performance in comparable companies and is provided to help investors evaluate companies on a consistent basis, as well as to enhance understanding of our operating results. Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as either an alternative to net income or as an indicator of our operating performance or an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity. The adjustments to calculate this non-GAAP financial measure and the basis for such adjustments are outlined below. Please refer to the following table below that reconciles GAAP net income (loss) to Adjusted EBITDA.
The adjustments to calculate this non-GAAP financial measure, and the basis for such adjustments, are outlined below:
Interest income and interest expense, net. The Company receives interest income on investments and incurs interest expense on loans, capital leases and other financing arrangements, including the amortization of issue discounts and deferred financing costs. These amounts may vary from period to period due to changes in cash and debt balances.
Income taxes. The Company's tax expense can fluctuate materially from period to period due to tax adjustments that may not be directly related to underlying operating performance or to the current period of operations and may not necessarily reflect the impact of utilization of our NOLs.
Depreciation. The Company incurs depreciation expense (recorded in cost of revenues and in operating expenses) related to capital assets purchased, leased or constructed to support the ongoing operations of the business. The assets are recorded at cost or fair value and are depreciated over the estimated useful lives of individual assets.
Amortization of intangible assets. The Company incurs amortization of intangible expense related to acquisitions it has made. These intangible assets are valued at the time of acquisition and are amortized over the estimated useful lives.
Amortization of capitalized contract and development costs. The Company incurs amortization of previously capitalized software development and non-recurring engineering costs related to certain targets in its Unmanned Systems and ballistic missile target businesses as these units are sold.
Stock-based compensation expense. The Company incurs expense related to stock-based compensation included in its GAAP presentation of selling, general and administrative expense. Although stock-based compensation is an expense of the Company and viewed as a form of compensation, these expenses vary in amount from period to period, and are affected by market forces that are difficult to predict and are not within the control of management, such as the market price and volatility of the Company's shares, risk-free interest rates and the expected term and forfeiture rates of the awards. Management believes that exclusion of these expenses allows comparison of operating results to those of other companies that disclose non-GAAP financial measures that exclude stock-based compensation.
Foreign transaction (gain) loss. The Company incurs transaction gains and losses related to transactions with foreign customers in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. In addition, certain intercompany transactions can give rise to realized and unrealized foreign currency gains and losses.
Acquisition and transaction related items. The Company incurs transaction related costs, such as legal and accounting fees and other expenses, related to acquisitions and divestiture activities. Management believes these items are outside the normal operations of the Company's business and are not indicative of ongoing operating results.
Restructuring costs. The Company incurs restructuring costs for cost reduction actions which include employee termination costs, facility shut-down related costs and remaining lease commitment costs for excess or exited facilities. Management believes that these costs are not indicative of ongoing operating results as they are either non-recurring and/or not expected when full capacity and volumes are achieved.
Legal related items. The Company incurs costs related to pending legal settlements and other legal related matters. Management believes these items are outside the normal operations of the Company's business and are not indicative of ongoing operating results.
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information provided in accordance with GAAP. This non-GAAP financial measure may not be computed in the same manner as similarly titled measures used by other companies. The Company expects to continue to incur expenses similar to the Adjusted EBITDA financial adjustments described above, and investors should not infer from the Company's presentation of this non-GAAP financial measure that these costs are unusual, infrequent, or non-recurring.

Adjusted income from continuing operations and adjusted income from continuing operations per diluted common share (Adjusted EPS) are non-GAAP measures for reporting financial performance and exclude the impact of certain items and, therefore, have not been calculated in accordance with GAAP. Management believes that exclusion of these items assists in providing a more complete understanding of the Company's underlying continuing operations results and trends and allows for comparability with our peer company index and industry. The Company uses these measures along with the corresponding GAAP financial measures to manage the Company's business and to evaluate its performance compared to prior periods and the marketplace. The Company defines adjusted income from continuing operations before amortization of intangible assets, depreciation, stock-based compensation, foreign transaction gain/loss, and acquisition and restructuring related items and other. The Company uses the estimated cash tax provision in computing adjusted earnings per share to reflect the benefit from the utilization of the Company's net operating losses. Adjusted EPS expresses adjusted income from continuing operations on a per share basis using weighted average diluted shares outstanding.
The following table reconciles the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures to the non-GAAP financial measures.
