CSC REPORTS CONTINUING IMPROVEMENT IN OPERATIONS
IN THIRD QUARTER 2013
Diluted EPS from Continuing Operations of $0.77
Operating Income of $268 Million
Operating Margin of 7.1% Includes Restructuring
Free Cash Flow of $245 Million
Bookings of $3.0 Billion
FY2013 EPS from Continuing Operations Target Increased to $2.50 - $2.70
FALLS CHURCH, Va., February 5 - CSC (NYSE: CSC) today reported third quarter 2013 diluted earnings per share of $3.27 consisting of $0.77 from continuing operations and $2.50 from two businesses that were divested during the quarter. This compares with a diluted loss per share of ($8.96) in the third quarter 2012, which included a charge relating to the UK National Health Service (NHS) contract of $9.93 per share. Total revenues were $3.78 billion compared with $3.69 billion in the year ago period, an increase of 2.8% in constant currency.
Financial Highlights
• | Diluted EPS from continuing operations of $0.77 per share included a workforce restructuring charge of $26 million, or $0.13 per share. |
• | Income from continuing operations before taxes of $155 million compares with a loss from continuing operations before taxes in the year ago period resulting from the $1.5 billion NHS charge. |
• | Operating income of $268 million compares with an operating loss in the year ago period resulting from the NHS charge. |
• | Pre-tax margin of 4.1% compares with a loss in the prior year. |
• | Operating margin of 7.1% compares with a loss in the year ago period. Operating margin excluding restructuring was 7.7% for the third quarter. |
• | Operating cash flow of $413 million compares with $720 million in the previous year which included a US Claims settlement of $277 million. |
• | Free cash flow of $245 million for the quarter compares with $499 million in the previous year which also included the US Claims settlement. |
• | The company divested its credit services business and certain businesses in Italy during the quarter. The net impact of these transactions is reflected in the $2.50 of diluted EPS from discontinued operations. |
• | During the quarter, CSC returned cash to shareholders by repurchasing approximately 1.97 million shares of common stock for an aggregate price of $77 million and paying $31 million in cash dividends, or $0.20 per share. |
• | Ending cash and cash equivalents were $2.20 billion. |
“Our turnaround is tracking to plan. We are transitioning to our new operating model and we are aligning our assets with our strategy of leading the next generation of technology services and solutions. Our cost takeout initiatives are yielding results as demonstrated by higher profit margins in all three lines of business when compared with the prior year. As a result, we are raising our target for fiscal year 2013 EPS from continuing operations to $2.50 - $2.70,” said Mike Lawrie, President and CEO. “During the quarter, we divested certain non-core businesses and we are using the proceeds to return cash to shareholders through our share buyback program and incremental contributions to our pension plans.”
Lines of Business
Managed Services Sector (MSS) revenue of $1.62 billion decreased by 3% as reported, and 2.8% in constant currency, when compared with the third quarter of 2012. Segment operating margin increased by 120 basis points to 7.7% due to better contract performance and cost takeout partially offset by workforce restructuring charges of $8 million. MSS signed $1.4 billion of new business during the quarter.
Business Solutions & Services (BSS) revenue of $0.85 billion increased by 28.7% as reported and 29.4% in constant currency. The year-over-year increases are due to a $204 million reduction of revenue in the year ago period resulting from NHS. BSS operating margin of 4.2% expanded when compared to a loss in the prior year due to the NHS charge. Operating margin improved primarily as the result of cost takeout progress and included a restructuring charge of $8 million. New business awards for BSS were $0.9 billion.
North American Public Sector (NPS) revenue of $1.34 billion declined by 2.8% from the third quarter of 2012 primarily due to reductions in contracts from Civil agencies which were partially offset by revenue growth from Department of Defense contracts. Operating margin of 10.2% increased by 550 bps when compared with the prior year and included better cost management and the benefit of a $22 million settlement. NPS awards of $0.7 billion declined from one year ago primarily due to delays in government procurement.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The following tables reconcile operating income, earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) and free cash flow to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. CSC management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to investors regarding the Company's financial condition and results of operations as they provide another measure of the Company's profitability and ability to service its debt, and are considered important measures by financial analysts covering CSC and its peers.
Management uses operating income to evaluate business unit financial performance and it is one of the measures used in assessing management performance. One of the limitations associated with the use of operating income (as compared to reported earnings) is that it does not reflect the complete financial results of the Company. CSC compensates for these limitations by providing reconciliation between operating income and income before taxes. Management uses free cash flow as one of the factors in reviewing the overall performance of the business. Management compensates for the limitations of this non-GAAP measure by also reviewing the GAAP measures of operating, investing and financing cash flows as well as debt levels measured by the debt-to-total capitalization ratio.
GAAP Reconciliations
CSC defines operating income as revenue less costs of services, depreciation and amortization expense, restructuring costs and segment general and administrative (G&A) expense, excluding corporate G&A. Operating margin is defined as operating income as a percentage of revenue. Pre-tax margin is defined as income (loss) from continuing operations before taxes as a percentage of revenue. A reconciliation of consolidated operating income to income from continuing operations before taxes is as follows:
