Arlington, VA — March 23, 2011 — Vangent, Inc., a leading global provider of information management and strategic business process services, today announced results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2010.
Full Year 2010 Results and Highlights
Total revenue from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2010 was $761.8 million, an increase of $177.9 million or 30% over the prior year.
Revenue growth for the full year 2010 was primarily attributable to Vangent’s work on the U.S. Census contract, the acquisition of Buccaneer Computer Systems and Services, Inc. and contracts with the U.S. Department of Education, which are reflected in the Government Group results, plus the ramp-up of a contract in the International Group.
Operating income for the year ended December 31, 2010 increased 117% to $51.9 million compared to $23.9 million in the prior year. The strong growth in operating income was primarily due to increased revenue from Vangent’s contracts with the U.S. Census and the U.S. Department of Education as well as the acquisition of Buccaneer.
Vangent reported net income of $40.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 compared to a net loss of $34.0 million in the prior year. The change is primarily due to the strong year-over-year operating income results and the reversal in the fourth quarter of 2010 of a tax valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets.
Adjusted EBITDA increased 36% to $95.1 million for the full year ended December 31, 2010 compared to $70.1 million for 2009. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily attributable to the increase in operating income.

Vangent’s total contract backlog, which is the amount of revenue the Company expects to realize over the remaining term of the contracts, including the base period and all option years, totaled $1.9 billion at December 31, 2010. Vangent’s funded backlog, the portion for which funding has been authorized, totaled $416.3 million.
Total debt as of December 31, 2010 was $406.8 million. During the fourth quarter of 2010, Vangent repaid the $16 million in borrowings drawn on the credit facility for the acquisition of Buccaneer. Cash and cash equivalents were $27.2 million at December 31, 2010. Net cash provided by operating activities for continuing operations was $72.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2010, an increase of $23.4 million compared to the prior year due to cash flows from the 2010 U.S. Census contract. Vangent’s total liquidity, which includes $49.8 million available under its credit facility, was $77.0 million.
Fourth Quarter 2010 Results and Highlights
Total revenue from continuing operations for the three months ended December 31, 2010 was $176.4 million, an increase of $3.9 million or 2% compared to $172.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2009. The increase in total revenue was primarily attributable to Vangent’s acquisition of Buccaneer in the third quarter of 2010 which offset lower revenue on the U.S. Census contract.
Operating income for the three months ended December 31, 2010 was $4.6 million compared to a net loss of $0.3 million for the same period in 2009. Impairment charges for goodwill and intangible assets were lower for 2010 compared to 2009.
Net income for the three months ended December 31, 2010 was $38.5 million compared to a net loss of $23.6 million in the same period in 2009. The increase in net income for the fourth quarter of 2010 primarily resulted from a tax benefit from continuing operations of $37.1 million which reflects the reversal of a previously established valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as well as the improved operating results.
Adjusted EBITDA increased $1.8 million to $21.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2010, compared to $19.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2009. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily attributable to the Buccaneer acquisition.
“This was a pivotal year for Vangent. The acquisition of Buccaneer has gone extremely well. Our successful execution of the U.S. Census contract, combined with stellar operations and superior delivery across the organization, contributed to the best year on record for customer satisfaction and results,” stated Mac Curtis, President and CEO of Vangent. “We ended 2010 with strong top and bottom line performance and a solid working capital and cash management position, paving the way for another successful year when our government customers need Vangent more than ever. With our long track record of helping the government reduce costs and improve efficiencies, we are excited about opportunities that are top of mind with the U.S. Congress such as fraud detection and prevention, data center consolidation and other cost-saving initiatives that drive pay-for-performance in health care.”
Discontinued Operations
As previously reported, in the fourth quarter of 2009, Vangent completed an evaluation of its international business and committed to a plan to sell its business operations in Latin America. The consolidated financial statements have been revised for all periods presented to report Vangent’s Latin American business as discontinued operations.
In 2010, Vangent completed the sales of its operations in Mexico and Argentina. Vangent completed the sale of its operations in Venezuela in February 2011.

EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. Management uses this measure as an indicator of operating performance. EBITDA is not an indicator of financial performance under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) or a measure of liquidity and may not be comparable to similarly captioned information reported by other companies. In addition, it should not be considered as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, income (loss) before income taxes, cash flows from operating activities, or other traditional indicators of operating performance.
Adjusted EBITDA is a financial measure used to calculate the consolidated leverage ratio, one of the more restrictive financial covenants under the senior secured credit facility. Adjusted EBITDA, as defined in the senior secured credit facility, excludes (i) discontinued operations, (ii) impairment charges, (iii) equity-based compensation expense, (iv) management fee and expenses paid to Veritas Capital, and (v) other items as defined in the senior secured credit facility, including an adjustment to include the pre-acquisition EBITDA results of the acquired company for the calculation of the consolidated leverage ratio. The adjustment to EBITDA for the pre-acquisition results of Buccaneer was $6,574 for the year ended December 31, 2010, resulting in Adjusted EBITDA, including the pro forma results of Buccaneer, of $101,646 for the year ended December 31, 2010.
