COVID-19: Third Quarter Impact
We estimate the third quarter program impact from the COVID-19 pandemic to be approximately $60 million of revenue and $9 million of adjusted EBITDA(1). These impacts were primarily driven by reduced volume in our supply chain business, lower FAA training service revenues, and uncertain profit recovery on ready-state labor. Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, SAIC has operated as an essential business, continuing to operate in a resilient market and business model.
Summary Results
Revenues for the quarter increased $188 million, or 11.5%, compared to the prior year quarter due to the acquisition of Unisys Federal, revenue on new contracts primarily supporting the U.S. Air Force, and increased volume on existing programs, partially offset by the impacts of COVID-19 and completion of contracts. Adjusting for the impact of acquired revenues, revenues contracted 0.7% primarily due to the impacts of COVID-19.
Operating income as a percentage of revenues of 6.1%, increased from 5.8% in the comparable prior year period due to the acquisition of Unisys Federal, lower acquisition and integration costs, and lower indirect costs, partially offset by increased intangible asset amortization and the impacts of COVID-19.
Net income attributable to common stockholders for the quarter increased $5 million as compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to increased operating income ($12 million, net of tax), partially offset by higher interest expense.
Adjusted EBITDA(1) as a percentage of revenues for the quarter increased to 9.0% of revenues from 8.3% of revenues in in the prior year quarter driven by the acquisition of Unisys Federal and lower indirect costs, partially offset by the impacts of COVID-19.
Diluted earnings per share for the quarter was $1.02 compared to $0.94 in the prior year quarter. Adjusted diluted earnings per share(1) for the quarter was $1.62 compared to $1.39 in the prior year quarter. The weighted-average diluted shares outstanding during the quarter increased to 58.7 million from 58.3 million during the prior year quarter.
Cash Generation and Capital Deployment
Cash flows provided by operating activities for the third quarter were $231 million, an increase of $115 million compared to the same period in the prior year. The improvement is primarily due to cash provided from deferred payroll tax payments as provided for in the CARES Act, one less payroll week for legacy Engility operations, the timing of collections and lower inventory balance, partially offset by higher cash interest payments.
During the quarter, SAIC deployed $239 million of capital, consisting of $21 million in cash dividends, $18 million of mandatory debt repayment, and $200 million of voluntary debt repayment. There were no share repurchases in the third quarter.
Quarterly Dividend Declared
Subsequent to the end of the quarter, the Company's Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.37 per share of the Company's common stock payable on January 29, 2021 to stockholders of record on January 15, 2021. 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 $5.0 billion, which reflects a book-to-bill ratio of 2.7. SAIC has produced a book to bill of 2.1 on a year-to-date basis and 2.0 for the trailing twelve months. SAIC’s estimated backlog of signed business orders at the end of the quarter was approximately $22.6 billion. Of the total backlog amount, approximately $3.3 billion was funded.

Total backlog$22,553 $19,424 $15,317 
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.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
(Unaudited)
This schedule describes the 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.

EBITDA is a performance measure that 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 and adjusted operating income are performance measures that exclude acquisition and integration costs and restructuring costs that we do not consider to be indicative of our ongoing operating performance. The acquisition and integration costs relate to the Company's significant acquisitions of Engility and Unisys Federal. The recovery of acquisition and integration costs and restructuring costs relate to costs recovered through the Company's indirect rates in accordance with Cost Accounting Standards. We believe that these performance measures 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 the Company.

Adjusted diluted earnings per share is a performance measure that excludes acquisition and integration costs and restructuring costs that we do not consider to be indicative of our ongoing operating performance. The acquisition and integration costs relate to the Company's recent acquisitions of Engility and Unisys Federal. The acquisition and integration costs and restructuring costs are net of the portion of costs recovered through the Company's 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 this performance measure 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 is calculated by taking cash flows provided by operating activities less expenditures for property, plant, and equipment. 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 a similar non-GAAP liquidity measure. Additionally, the Company provides free cash flow excluding the Master Accounts Receivable Purchasing Agreement (MARPA) for the sale of certain designated eligible U.S. government receivables. Under the MARPA, the Company can sell eligible receivables up to a maximum amount of $300 million. The Company provides free cash flow excluding MARPA to allow investors to more easily compare current period results to prior period results and to results of our peers. These measures should not be considered as a measure of residual cash flow available for discretionary purposes.
