Vectrus posts strong first quarter 2016 financial results

First quarter revenue increased 19 percent
Book-to-bill1 ratio of 1.9x due to contract modifications
Diluted EPS increased 33 percent; adjusted diluted EPS increased 30 percent,
year-over-year
Raising lower end of 2016 guidance for revenue, diluted EPS and free cash flow2

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., May 10, 2016 — Vectrus, Inc. (NYSE:VEC) announced solid first quarter 2016 results, which included revenue of $310.7 million, operating income of $11.8 million and diluted earnings per share of $0.61. As of April 1, 2016, year-to-date net cash provided by operating activities was $1.7 million and free cash flow2 improved $29.4 million year-over-year. First quarter 2016 also saw solid funded orders of $605.2 million, representing a funded book-to-bill1 ratio of 1.9x.
“Strong performance was driven by continued organic growth in our business, which resulted in a 30 percent increase in adjusted diluted EPS2,” said Ken Hunzeker, chief executive officer and president of Vectrus. “Full year revenue visibility improved due to significant modifications to existing work in the Middle East and Europe.”

Subsequent to the end of the quarter, Vectrus won the nearly $12 million Enterprise Legacy Voice and Information System (ELVIS) contract, a re-compete of an information technology effort Vectrus has supported for almost 20 years in Europe.

“The ELVIS re-compete represents a key win for us in an area with significant growth potential,” said Hunzeker.

Exhibit 99.1 

First Quarter 2016 Results
Revenue of $310.7 million
Operating income of $11.8 million
Operating margin of 3.8 percent
Diluted earnings per share of $0.61

First quarter 2016 revenue of $310.7 million increased $49.8 million, or 19.1 percent, compared to the first quarter 2015. In the first quarter of 2016, Vectrus benefited from strong performance on Middle East programs and contributions from programs that achieved full operating capability in the second and third quarters of 2015.
Programs based in Afghanistan contributed $32.1 million of revenue in the first quarter 2016, down $11.5 million compared to the first quarter 2015.
Operating income was $11.8 million, or 3.8 percent of operating margin, in the first quarter 2016, compared to $9.4 million, or 3.6 percent operating margin, in the first quarter 2015. On an adjusted basis operating income2 was $9.5 million in the first quarter 2015. Programs based in Afghanistan contributed $0.6 million of operating income or a 1.8 percent operating margin in the first quarter of 2016, down $2.2 million compared to the same period in 2015.
First quarter 2016 diluted earnings per share were $0.61 compared to $0.46 in the first quarter 2015, and adjusted diluted earnings per share2 were $0.47 in the same period in 2015.
In the first quarter 2016, net cash provided by operating activities was $1.7 million compared to net cash used in operating activities of $27.2 million during the same period in 2015. Free cash flow2 was $1.7 million in the first quarter 2016, compared to negative free cash flow2 of $27.7 million during the same period in 2015.
“Free cash flow2 improved by $29.4 million, which was driven by strong cash collections in the quarter,” said Matt Klein, chief financial officer of Vectrus. “Our organizational focus and commitment to improving free cash flow2 generation resulted in days sales outstanding of 57 in the first quarter, the lowest we have reported as a public company.”

For the quarter ended April 1, 2016, the Company ended with total backlog of $2.5 billion and funded backlog of $1.0 billion.
2016 Guidance

“We reported a strong start to 2016, which was driven by solid performance across all of our major programs and operational excellence initiatives," said Klein. "Given our outlook for the remainder of the year, we are increasing the lower end of our previously communicated ranges for revenue, diluted EPS and free cash flow2. We now expect 2016 revenue, diluted EPS and free cash flow2 to be in the range of $1,150 million to $1,190 million, $2.02 to $2.31 and $22 million to $30 million, respectively."

Exhibit 99.1 

Key Performance Indicators and Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The primary financial performance measures Vectrus uses to manage its business and monitor results of operations are revenue trends and operating income trends. In addition, we consider adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, and free cash flow, to be useful to management and investors in evaluating our operating performance for the periods presented, and to provide a tool for evaluating our ongoing operations. This information can assist investors in assessing our financial performance and measures our ability to generate capital for deployment among competing strategic alternatives and initiatives.
Adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, and free cash flow, however, are not measures of financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP) and should not be considered a substitute for operating income, net income, diluted earnings per share, or net cash provided by operating activities as determined in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of these items are provided below.
“Adjusted operating income” is defined as operating income, adjusted to exclude items that may include, but are not limited to, other income; significant charges or credits that impact current results but are not related to our ongoing operations and unusual and infrequent non-operating items and non-operating tax settlements or adjustments, such as separation costs incurred to become a stand-alone public company.
“Adjusted operating margin” is defined as adjusted operating income divided by revenue.
"Adjusted net income" is defined as net income, adjusted to exclude items that may include, but are not limited to, other income; significant charges or credits that impact current results that are related to our ongoing operations and unusual and infrequent items an non-operating tax settlements or adjustments, such as separation costs incurred to become a stand-alone public company.
"Adjusted diluted earnings per share" is defined as adjusted net income divided by the weighted average diluted common shares outstanding.
“Free cash flow” is defined as GAAP net cash provided by or used in operating activities less capital expenditures.
