Fourth Quarter Summary Results

Revenues for the quarter decreased $88 million compared to the prior year quarter primarily due to ramp down in volume on existing contracts, including the impact of government shutdown, and contract completions, partially offset by new contracts and the acquisition of SilverEdge ($23 million).

Operating income as a percentage of revenues increased to 7.6% for the quarter as compared to 7.5% in the comparable prior year period primarily due to lower selling, general and administrative expenses, partially offset by timing and volume mix in our contract portfolio.

Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ as a percentage of revenues for the quarter was 10.3%, compared to 9.6% for the prior year quarter primarily due to lower selling, general and administrative expenses, partially offset by timing and volume mix in our contract portfolio.

Fiscal Year 2026 Summary Results

Revenues for the fiscal year decreased $217 million compared to the prior year primarily due to contract completions and ramp down in volume on existing contracts, including approximately $26 million attributable to the government shutdown, partially offset by new contracts. Revenues attributed to SilverEdge for the year ended January 30, 2026 were $27 million. Adjusting for the acquisition of SilverEdge, revenues contracted by approximately 3.3%.

Operating income as a percentage of revenues for the fiscal year decreased compared to the prior year primarily due to executive transition costs, net of recoveries, the favorable resolution of the Assault Amphibious Vehicle (“AAV”) contract termination in the prior year ($13 million), costs related to the settlement of federal tax audits, and timing and volume mix in our contract portfolio, partially offset by a recovery of costs from the settlement of a patent infringement matter.

Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ as a percentage of revenues for the fiscal year increased compared to the prior year primarily due to a recovery of costs from the settlement of a patent infringement matter and lower other selling, general and administrative expenses, partially offset by the favorable resolution of the AAV contract termination in the prior year ($13 million), and timing and volume mix in our contract portfolio.

Diluted earnings per share for the year was $7.70 compared to $7.17 in the prior year. Adjusted diluted earnings per share⁽¹⁾ was $10.75 for the year compared to $9.13 in the prior year. The weighted-average diluted shares outstanding during the year decreased to 46.5 million shares from 50.5 million shares during the prior year.

⁽¹⁾Non-GAAP measure, see Schedule 6 for information about this measure.

Cash Generation and Capital Deployment

Total cash flows provided by operating activities for the fourth quarter were $258 million, an increase of $143 million compared to the prior year quarter, primarily due to timing of customer collections, lower cash outflows from the usage of the Master Accounts Receivable Purchase Agreement (“MARPA Facility”), and lower cash taxes paid, net of tax refunds received in the current year, partially offset by timing of vendor payments.

Total cash flows provided by operating activities for the year were $609 million, an increase of $115 million from the prior year, primarily due to timing of customer collections, lower cash outflows from the usage of the MARPA Facility, lower cash taxes paid, net of tax refunds received in the current year, and other changes in working capital, partially offset by timing of vendor payments.

During the quarter, SAIC deployed $122 million of capital, consisting primarily of $97 million of share repurchases in accordance with established repurchase plans and $17 million in cash dividends to shareholders. For the year, SAIC deployed $524 million of capital, consisting primarily of share repurchases of $422 million (approximately 4.0 million shares) in accordance with established repurchase plans and cash dividends of $70 million to shareholders.

Quarterly Dividend Declared

As previously announced, subsequent to fiscal year-end, the Company’s Board of Directors (“Board of Directors”) declared a cash dividend of $0.37 per share of the Company’s common stock payable on April 24, 2026 to stockholders of record on April 10, 2026. 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.

Backlog and Contract Awards

Net bookings for the quarter were approximately $0.6 billion, which reflects a book-to-bill ratio of approximately 0.3. Net bookings for the year were approximately $7.8 billion, which reflects a book-to-bill ratio of approximately 1.1.

GAAP to Non-GAAP Guidance Reconciliation

The Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking adjusted diluted EPS to GAAP diluted EPS or adjusted EBITDA margin to GAAP net income 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 may vary significantly based on actual events, the Company is not able to forecast GAAP diluted EPS or GAAP net income with reasonable certainty. The variability of the above charges may have an unpredictable and potentially significant impact on our future GAAP financial results.

Forward-Looking Statements

Certain statements in this release contain or are based on “forward-looking” information within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by words such as “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “guidance,” and similar words or phrases. Forward-looking statements in this release may include, among others, estimates of future revenues, operating income, earnings, earnings per share, charges, total contract value, backlog, outstanding shares and cash flows, as well as statements about future dividends, share repurchases and other capital deployment plans. Such statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risk, uncertainties and assumptions, and actual results may differ materially from the guidance and other forward-looking statements made in this release as a result of various factors. Risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could cause or contribute to these material differences include those discussed in the “Risk Factors,” “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Legal Proceedings” sections of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as updated in any subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and other filings with the SEC, which may be viewed or obtained through the Investor Relations section of our website at www.saic.com or on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.

Schedule 5:

SCIENCE APPLICATIONS INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION
BACKLOG
(Unaudited)

The estimated value of our total backlog as of the dates presented was:

Backlog represents the estimated amount of future revenues to be recognized under negotiated contracts and task orders as work is performed and excludes contract awards which have been protested by competitors until the protest is resolved in our favor. SAIC segregates backlog into two categories, funded backlog and negotiated unfunded backlog. Funded backlog for contracts with government agencies primarily represents contracts for which funding is appropriated less revenues previously recognized on these contracts, and does not include the unfunded portion of contracts where funding is incrementally appropriated or authorized by the U.S. government and other customers even though the contract may call for performance over a number of years. Funded backlog for contracts with non-government agencies represents the estimated value of contracts which may cover multiple future years under which SAIC is obligated to perform, less revenues previously recognized on these contracts. Negotiated unfunded backlog represents the estimated future revenues to be earned from negotiated contracts for which funding has not been appropriated or authorized, and unexercised priced contract options. Negotiated unfunded backlog does not include any estimate of future potential task orders expected to be awarded under indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity (IDIQ), U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) schedules or other master agreement contract vehicles, with the exception of certain IDIQ contracts where task orders are not competitively awarded and separately priced but instead are used as a funding mechanism, and where there is a basis for estimating future revenues and funding on future anticipated task orders.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
(Unaudited)

This schedule describes the consolidated non-GAAP financial measures included in this earnings release. While we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures may be useful in evaluating our financial information, they should be considered as supplemental in nature and not as a substitute for financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations, definitions, and how we believe these measures are useful to management and investors are provided below. Other companies may define similar measures differently.

Adjusted Operating Income

Adjusted operating income is a performance measure that primarily excludes the impact of non-recurring transactions and activities that we do not consider to be indicative of our ongoing operating performance. Adjusted operating income is calculated by taking operating income and excluding depreciation and amortization, acquisition, integration, restructuring, and impairment costs, and any other material non-recurring costs. Acquisition, integration, restructuring and impairment costs represent costs incurred related to acquisitions, reorganizations, facilities optimization efforts, and impairments of long-lived assets, along with associated depreciation. Recovery of acquisition, integration, restructuring and impairment costs represents costs recovered through our indirect rates in accordance with Cost Accounting Standards. Depreciation of property, plant, and equipment relates to property, plant, and equipment specifically identifiable for each segment and Corporate. Adjusted operating income also excludes amortization of intangible assets because we do not have a history of significant acquisition activity, and therefore consider acquisitions to be a non-recurring activity, and the amount of an acquisition’s purchase price allocated to intangible assets and the related amortization term are unique to each acquisition. Executive transition costs, net of recoveries, represent costs associated with the departure of our CEO and other executives in the third quarter of the fiscal year 2026, net of the portion recovered through our indirect rates in accordance with Cost Accounting Standards. Costs related to the settlement of federal tax audits represent costs related to the IRS audit settlement for fiscal years 2016 through 2019. We believe that adjusted operating income provides management and investors with useful information in assessing trends in our ongoing operating performance and may provide greater visibility in understanding our long-term financial performance.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

The performance measure EBITDA is calculated by taking net income and excluding interest and loss on sale of receivables, provision for income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is a performance measure that excludes the impact of non-recurring transactions and activities that we do not consider to be indicative of our ongoing operating performance. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by taking EBITDA and excluding acquisition, integration, restructuring and impairment costs, and any other material non-recurring costs. Acquisition, integration, restructuring and impairment costs represent costs incurred related to acquisitions, reorganizations, facilities optimization efforts, and impairments of long-lived assets, along with associated depreciation. Recovery of acquisition, integration, restructuring and impairment costs represents costs recovered through our indirect rates in accordance with Cost Accounting Standards. Executive transition costs, net of recoveries, represent costs associated with the departure of our CEO and other executives in the third quarter of the fiscal year 2026, net of the portion recovered through our indirect rates in accordance with Cost Accounting Standards. Costs related to the settlement of federal tax audits represent costs related to the IRS audit settlement for fiscal years 2016 through 2019. We believe that EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA provide management and investors with useful information in assessing trends in our ongoing operating performance and may provide greater visibility in understanding the long-term financial performance of our Company.

Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share

Adjusted diluted earnings per share is a performance measure that excludes the impact of non-recurring transactions that we do not consider to be indicative of our ongoing operating performance. Adjusted diluted earnings per share is calculated by taking diluted earnings per share and excluding amortization of intangible assets, acquisition, integration, restructuring, and impairment costs, and any other material non-recurring costs. Acquisition, integration, restructuring and impairment costs represent costs incurred related to acquisitions, reorganizations, facilities optimization efforts, and impairments of long-lived assets, along with associated depreciation. Recovery of acquisition, integration, restructuring and impairment costs represents costs recovered through our indirect rates in accordance with Cost Accounting Standards. Adjusted diluted earnings per share also excludes amortization of intangible assets because we do not have a history of significant acquisition activity, we do not acquire businesses on a predictable cycle, and the amount of an acquisition’s purchase price allocated to intangible assets and the related amortization term are unique to each acquisition. We believe that adjusted diluted earnings per share provides management and investors with useful information in assessing trends in our ongoing operating performance and may provide greater visibility in understanding the long-term financial performance of the Company.

Free Cash Flow

Free cash flow is calculated by taking cash flows provided by operating activities less expenditures for property, plant, and equipment and less cash flows from our Master Accounts Receivable Purchasing Agreement (MARPA Facility) for the sale of certain designated eligible U.S. government receivables. Under the MARPA Facility, the Company can sell eligible receivables up to a maximum amount of $300 million. We believe that free cash flow provides management and investors with useful information in assessing trends in our cash flows and in comparing them to other peer companies, many of whom present similar non-GAAP liquidity measures. These measures should not be considered as a measure of residual cash flow available for discretionary purposes.
