Reston, va.--(business wire)--caci international inc (nyse: caci), a leading provider of expertise and technology to government enterprise and mission customers, announced results today for its fiscal

first half. we are successfully executing our strategy, making the right investments, hiring and retaining top talent, winning new work, and managing the business efficiently. we remain confident in our full-year outlook and our ability to deliver value to both our customers and our shareholders.” second quarter results three months ended (in millions, except earnings per share and dso) 12/31/2022 12/31/2021 % change revenues $1,649.4 $1,485.8 11.0% income from operations $130.9 $124.1 5.4% net income $87.1 $90.3 -3.5% adjusted net income, a non-gaap measure1 $101.3 $103.6 -2.3%

non-gaap measure, see the related explanation and reconciliation to the gaap measure included below in this release. the dso calculations for three months ended december 31, 2022 and 2021 exclude the impact of the company’s master accounts receivable purchase agreement (marpa), which was 8 days and 8 days, respectively. revenues in the second quarter of fiscal year 2023 increased 11 percent year-over-year, driven by 6 percent organic growth as well as acquisitions completed within the prior 12 months. the increase in income from operations was driven by higher revenue and gross profit. diluted earnings per share and adjusted diluted earnings per share decreased due to higher interest expense and a higher tax rate, partially offset by higher income from operations. net cash provided by operating activities excluding marpa and free cash flow decreased due higher cash tax payments, including a $46 million payment related to section 174 of the tax cuts and jobs act of 2017. second

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. three months ended six months ended (in thousands) 12/31/2022 12/31/2021 % change 12/31/2022

provided by operating activities excluding marpa and to free cash flow (unaudited) the company defines net cash provided by operating activities excluding marpa, a non-gaap measure, as net cash provided by operating activities calculated in accordance with gaap, adjusted to exclude cash flows from caci’s master accounts receivable purchase agreement (marpa) for the sale of certain designated eligible u.s. government receivables up to a maximum amount of $200.0 million. free cash flow is a non-gaap liquidity measure and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. the company defines free cash flow as net cash provided by operating activities excluding marpa, less payments for capital expenditures. the company uses these non-gaap measures to assess our ability to generate cash from our business operations and plan for future operating and capital actions. we believe these measures allow investors to more easily compare current period results to prior period results and to results of our peers. free cash flow does not represent residual cash flows available for discretionary purposes and should not be used as a substitute for cash flow measures prepared in accordance with gaap. three months ended six months ended (in thousands) 12/31/2022 12/31/2021 12/31/2022 12/31/2021 net cash provided by operating activities $ 62,247 $ 122,812 $
