(in millions except earnings per share and DSO)			Q2, FY21			Q2, FY20			% Change
Revenue			$1,468.7			$1,395.5			5.2%

Net income			$106.5			$79.2			34.5%
Diluted earnings per share			$4.18			$3.11			34.4%
Net cash provided by operating activities excluding MARPA1			$189.8			$117.5			61.6%
Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), a non-GAAP measure2			$174.6			$140.9			23.9%

(1)		Second quarter FY21 and second quarter FY20 net cash provided by operating activities exclude CACI’s Master Accounts Receivable Purchase Agreement (MARPA). For more details, see the Reconciliation of Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities to Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities Excluding MARPA on page 10 of this release.
(2)		See the Reconciliation of Net Income to Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) on page 10 of this release.
(3)		The DSO calculations for second quarter FY21 and second quarter FY20 exclude the impact of the Company’s MARPA, which was 10 days and 9 days, respectively.

Revenue in Q2 FY21 increased 5.2% year-over-year as reported and 4.3% organically. The year-over-year increase in operating income was driven by higher revenue, strong operating performance, favorable fixed-price contract performance, and lower indirect costs. The year-over-year increase in net income was due to higher operating income and lower interest expense, partially offset by a higher effective tax rate. The increase in cash from operations, excluding MARPA, was driven by higher net income and favorable working capital management.

Second Quarter Contract Awards

Contract awards in Q2 FY21 totaled $2.1 billion. These awards exclude ceiling values of multi-award, indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contracts. Some notable awards during the quarter were:

• A four-and-a-half year task order, with a ceiling value of $160 million, by the U.S. Air Force Central Command’s (AFCENT) Network Operations and Security Center (NOSC) to provide enterprise expertise including networking, technical, and cyber support to multiple deployed AFCENT NOSC sites through U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM).
• A five-year single award contract, with a ceiling value of $447 million, to provide acquisition mission technology.
• A seven-year task order, with a ceiling value of $376 million, to provide mission technology to modernize a federal customer’s web-based supply chain system.
• A three-year task order, with a ceiling value of $96 million, to provide engineering and logistics expertise for the U.S. Army’s Medical Communications for Combat Casualty Care (MC4) Program.
• A six-and-a-half year indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity contract, with a ceiling of $1.5 billion, to continue providing automated litigation support services to federal agencies.

Total backlog as of December 31, 2020 was $22.4 billion compared with $20.3 billion a year ago, an increase of 10%. Funded backlog as of December 31, 2020 was $2.9 billion compared with $2.8 billion a year ago, an increase of 3%.

Reconciliation of Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities to
Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities Excluding MARPA
(Unaudited)

The Company defines net cash provided by operating activities excluding CACI’s Master Accounts Receivable Purchase Agreement (MARPA) as net cash provided by operating activities calculated in accordance with GAAP, adjusted to exclude net cash received from CACI’s MARPA for the sale of certain designated eligible U.S. government receivables. Under the MARPA, the Company can sell eligible receivables, including certain billed and unbilled receivables up to a maximum amount of $200.0 million. The Company provides net cash provided by operating activities excluding MARPA to allow investors to more easily compare current period results to prior period results and to results of our peers. This non-GAAP measure should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

Reconciliation of Net Income to Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA)
(Unaudited)

The Company views Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin, both of which are defined as non-GAAP measures, as important indicators of performance, consistent with the manner in which management measures and forecasts the Company’s performance. Adjusted EBITDA is a commonly used non-GAAP measure when comparing our results with those of other companies. We define Adjusted EBITDA as GAAP net income plus net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense, including depreciation within direct costs, and earnout adjustments. We consider Adjusted EBITDA to be a useful metric for management and investors to evaluate and compare the ongoing operating performance of our business on a consistent basis across reporting periods, as it eliminates the effect of non-cash items such as depreciation of tangible assets, amortization of intangible assets primarily recognized in business combinations, as well as the effect of earnout gains and losses, which we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA margin is adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
