RESTON, VA, September 4, 2025-Science Applications International Corporation (NASDAQ: SAIC), a premier Fortune 500 technology integrator driving our nation's digital transformation across the defense, space, civilian, and intelligence markets, today announced results for the second quarter ended August 1, 2025.
"Our second quarter results reflect strong program performance, and our bookings reflect further momentum in our business development efforts; however, slower on-contract growth and continued delays in new business awards and new program ramps are contributing to a more challenging revenue environment than previously forecasted," said Toni Townes-Whitley, SAIC Chief Executive Officer. "We are responding purposefully by aligning our cost structure while sustaining key investments to drive long-term value creation. Our revised guidance assumes that the operating environment remains stable but does not improve this year. We believe that this more cautious outlook is prudent, and we are confident in our ability to execute against it."

Second Quarter Summary Results
Revenues for the quarter decreased $49 million or 3% compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to contract completions and ramp down in volume on existing contracts, partially offset by new contracts.
Operating income as a percentage of revenues for the quarter increased compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to improved profitability across our contract portfolio and a recovery of costs from the settlement of a patent infringement matter, partially offset by costs related to the settlement of federal tax audits and the indirect rates impact of state taxes related to the One Big Beautiful Bill Act.
Adjusted EBITDA(1) as a percentage of revenues for the quarter increased to 10.5% from 9.4% for the same period in the prior year primarily due to improved profitability across our contract portfolio and a recovery of costs from the settlement of a patent infringement matter, partially offset by the indirect rates impact of state taxes related to the One Big Beautiful Bill Act.
Diluted earnings per share for the quarter was $2.71 compared to $1.58 in the prior year quarter. Adjusted diluted earnings per share(1) for the quarter was $3.63 compared to $2.05 in the prior year quarter.

(1)Non-GAAP measure, see Schedule 6 for information about this measure.
Cash Generation and Capital Deployment
Cash flows provided by operating activities for the second quarter decreased $16 million compared to the prior year quarter primarily due to timing of customer collections and vendor payments, partially offset by lower cash outflows from the usage of the Master Accounts Receivable Purchase Agreement ("MARPA Facility") in the current year and other changes in working capital.
During the quarter, SAIC deployed $130 million of capital, primarily consisting of $106 million of plan share repurchases and $17 million in cash dividends.
Quarterly Dividend Declared
Subsequent to quarter end, the Company's Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.37 per share of the Company's common stock payable on October 24, 2025 to stockholders of record on October 10, 2025. SAIC intends to continue paying dividends on a quarterly basis, although the declaration of any future dividends will be determined by the Board of Directors each quarter and will depend on earnings, financial condition, capital requirements and other factors.

GAAP to Non-GAAP Guidance Reconciliation
The Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking adjusted diluted EPS to GAAP diluted EPS, adjusted EBITDA margin to GAAP net income or free cash flow to GAAP net cash flows from operating activities due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation. Because certain deductions for non-GAAP exclusions used to calculate net income and cash flows from operating activities may vary significantly based on actual events, the Company is not able to forecast GAAP diluted EPS, GAAP net income or GAAP net cash flows from operating activities with reasonable certainty. The variability of the above charges may have an unpredictable and potentially significant impact on our future GAAP financial results.
