FAIRFAX, Virginia, March 3, 2004 ManTech International Corporation (Nasdaq: MANT), a leading provider of innovative technologies and solutions focused on mission-critical national security programs for the Intelligence Community, the Department of Defense and other federal government customers, today announced results for the fourth quarter and for the full year ended December 31, 2003, that reflect strong growth in revenues and profitability.
This past year was an outstanding year for ManTech, said ManTech International Chairman of the Board, CEO and President George J. Pedersen. In addition to reporting record growth in both revenue and earnings during 2003, the acquisitions we made over the last year-and-a-half have exceeded our expectations in terms of enhancing our overall technical capabilities, deepening our penetration into our target markets in the defense and Intelligence Community, and producing growth in sales and profits. We are also particularly pleased that we have increased our involvement with the Department of Homeland Security, Department of Justice and other agencies.
Fourth Quarter Results
For the fourth quarter of 2003, ManTech reported revenue of $194.8 million, up $52.3 million, or 37 percent, compared to $142.5 million for the same period in 2002. The results reflect an organic growth rate of 14.5 percent from the $170.2 million of pro forma revenue (adjusted to include full-year revenue of acquired subsidiaries) for the comparable period in 2002.
Operating income for the quarter was $16.8 million, an increase of 58 percent over 2002. Operating margin for the quarter expanded to 8.6 percent compared with 7.5 percent for the same period in 2002. The margin expansion in the quarter is primarily attributable to improved cost controls compared to the previous year. Fully diluted EPS were $0.31 for the fourth quarter of 2003, up 138 percent from $0.13 in 2002.
Full Year 2003
Revenues for the full year 2003 were $701.6 million, up $201.4 million, or 40 percent, over 2002 revenues of $500.2 million. Sales growth in 2003 was attributable to new business supporting national security programs for the Department of Defense, intelligence and federal civilian agency customers, as well as the results of companies acquired in 2003. The results reflect a full year organic growth rate of 14 percent based on year over year pro forma revenue.
Operating income for 2003 was $61 million, an increase of 58 percent from $38.5 million in 2002. Operating margins improved for the year 2003, increasing to 8.7 percent from 7.7 percent in 2002. The margin expansion in 2003 was attributable to higher margin contributions from new contracts and acquired companies, as well as operating efficiencies. Net income from continuing operations rose 54 percent to $35.2 million for 2003, while diluted EPS for 2003 were $1.09, up 47 percent from $0.74 in 2002.
During 2003, ManTech won contracts with an estimated value in excess of $1 billion. Reported backlog as of December 31, 2003 was $1.5 billion, compared with $1.4 billion as of December 31, 2002. Funded backlog as of December 31, 2003, was $375 million, an increase of almost 91 percent over $197 million in 2002. At the end of 2003, ManTech had more than $1 billion in proposals under evaluation and a pipeline of qualified opportunities of $5 billion.
ManTech derived approximately 89 percent of its revenue during 2003 from prime contracts, and over 40 percent of its revenue from work under GSA schedule contracts. Revenue from the Department of Defense and the Intelligence Community accounted for over 91 percent of revenue for 2003. Revenue from work in secure systems and information technology solutions was 82 percent of revenue in 2003, up from 76 percent in 2002.
Throughout 2003 we remained true to our strategy to advance ManTechs innovative technologies and solutions for critical national security programs to support the war on terrorism, Pedersen said. The majority of our past efforts have been projects for the Department of Defense and the Intelligence Community, but more recently we have been awarded some significant assignments by the Department of Homeland Security and the Department of Justice.
Homeland Security and Justice Department Initiatives
Earlier this year ManTech announced the award of three contracts from the Department of Homeland Security. One involving program management and strategic planning in the amount of $11.5 million; another for the design, development and implementation of information technology capabilities and infrastructure with an estimated value of $21.6 million; and a third valued at $29 million to provide personnel security investigation services.
Just as significantly, the Joint Regional Information Exchange System (JRIES), which ManTech helped to develop for the Defense Intelligence Agency, has been adopted by the Department of Homeland Security, as announced in Secretary Tom Ridges press conference last month. JRIES is part of the computer-based counterterrorism communications system and will be expanded to all 50 states, five territories, Washington, D.C., and 50 major urban areas. ManTech recently received contracts from Pennsylvania and California involving JRIES.
ManTech won three task orders recently from the Department of Justice with an estimated total value of $23 million to support their Consolidated Office Network program. The task orders came under a Department of Justice blanket purchase agreement which was awarded to ManTech last year and had an estimated value of $100 million per year, for five to ten years.
These events, along with work we are doing for the FBI, which is using ManTechs proprietary multi-level, secure architecture solution, signifies that our effort to expand our marketplace beyond defense and intelligence is bearing fruit and establishing a strong presence in this evolving market, Pedersen said. As we enter 2004, strong budget trends for our markets, our solid balance sheet, our expanded credit facility and improving operating results will allow us to capitalize on the momentum created from our fully integrated, unified business platform.

Company Guidance
Recent business trends and the expectation of continuing strength in our national security markets supports the companys guidance for 2004. ManTechs guidance for revenue in the first quarter of 2004 is in the range of $182 million to $186 million, and diluted EPS in the range of $0.28 to $0.29 per share. For the full year 2004, revenue guidance is in the range of $795 million to $810 million, with diluted EPS in the range of $1.23 to $1.25, a 13 percent to 15 percent growth rate. ManTech assumes diluted shares of 32.4 million for the first quarter and 32.5 million for the full year 2004. Finally, this outlook does not reflect the impact of any future business acquisitions.

NOTE: EBITDA is defined as net income plus the loss from discontinued operations, interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, minority interest, and minus other income.
EBITDA as calculated by us may be calculated differently than EBITDA for other companies. We have provided EBITDA because we believe it is a commonly used measure of financial performance in comparable companies and is provided to help investors evaluate companies on a consistent basis, as well as to enhance an understanding of our operating results. EBITDA should not be construed as either an alternative to net income, as an indicator of our operating performance, or as an alternative to cash flows as a measure of liquidity.
