    <title>Cubic Reports Second Quarter Fiscal Year 2013 Results</title> 
    <link>http://www.cubic.com/News/Press-Releases/ID/792/Cubic-Reports-Second-Quarter-Fiscal-Year-2013-Results</link> 
    <description>
    Sales increased 7 percent over second quarter 2012 to $364.3 million
    Net income of $27.2 million compared to $23.4 million in the same period last year
    Earnings per share of $1.02 compared to $0.88 in the same period last year
    Total backlog of $2.80 billion at March 31, 2013 compared to $2.83 billion at September 30, 2012
    Net Income was positively impacted by retroactive federal R&amp;amp;D tax credit of $1.9 million
    Results were negatively impacted by restructuring and other charges totaling $7.4 million, before taxes

SAN DIEGO, Calif. – May 2, 2013 – Cubic Corporation (NYSE: CUB) today reported its results for the second quarter of fiscal year 2013.&amp;#160; Sales for the second quarter of 2013 were $364.3 million, an increase of 7 percent compared to $339.6 million in the second quarter of 2012. Net income attributable to Cubic shareholders rose 16 percent to $27.2 million, or $1.02 per share, from $23.4 million, or $0.88 per share, in the second quarter of 2012. The benefit from retroactive renewal of the U.S. federal research and development tax credit was approximately $1.9 million and contributed $0.07 to earnings per share. Operating income was $34.6 million, up 6 percent from $32.5 million last year. Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (Adjusted EBITDA), a non-GAAP measure (as described below), was $41.5 million in this year’s second quarter compared to $38.0 million last year, an increase of 9 percent.
The second quarter of 2013 included a charge of $6.1 million, before applicable income taxes, for restructuring costs due to workforce reductions at Cubic Defense Systems. The global realignment was necessitated due to delayed U.S. government procurement decisions and a change in business mix. The realignment is expected to result in operating profit margin improvements during the remainder of the fiscal year.
&quot;Overall we had a good quarter led by a strong performance in our transportation segment.” said William W. Boyle, Chief Executive Officer of Cubic Corporation. “Despite the unsettling DoD environment, we continue to win U.S. defense contracts and expand our transportation segment into new market areas. We remain encouraged for the remainder of the year due to our strong pipeline of international opportunities.”
Reportable Segment Results
Transportation Systems (38% of consolidated sales)
Cubic Transportation Systems (CTS) develops and delivers innovative fare collection systems and services for public transit authorities worldwide. In the second quarter of this year, CTS sales increased 5 percent to $138.8 million compared to $131.7 million in the same period last year. The increase resulted from higher sales on contracts in the U.K., including an annual system usage incentive, as well as higher U.S. sales on a bus contract and sales from the recently acquired NextBus, Inc.&amp;#160;&amp;#160;
Operating income from CTS in the second quarter this year increased 38 percent to $32.2 million from $23.4 million in the second quarter of last year, primarily due to higher sales in the U.K. and Australia, an increase in the annual system usage incentive mentioned above, and a more favorable mix of higher margin sales in the quarter compared to last year.&amp;#160;

&amp;#160;
CTS total backlog decreased from $1,663.7 million as of September 30, 2012 to $1,616.3 million at March 31, 2013, primarily due to negative changes in currency translation.
Mission Support Services (34% of consolidated sales)
Mission Support Services (MSS) is a leading provider of highly specialized support services to the U.S. government and allied nations. Sales from MSS decreased 4 percent to $122.2 million in the second quarter this year, compared to $126.9 million in the second quarter of last year. The decrease in sales was primarily due to lower activity at the Joint Readiness Training Center (JRTC) in Fort Polk, Louisiana, which was partially offset by higher sales on contracts for the national security community and from NEK Special Programs Group LLC (NEK), a company acquired in December 2012 that provides training to the Special Forces community.
MSS operating income was $3.6 million in the second quarter this year compared to $4.6 million in the second quarter of last year. The decrease was from increased personnel costs on a flight simulator training contract and an operating loss of $0.3 million from NEK inclusive of acquisition-related costs of $0.4 million.

Total backlog for MSS increased 9 percent or $69.6 million from $737.0 million to $806.6 million, partially due to the addition of backlog from the acquisition of NEK and the recently won U.S. Navy training services contract valued at $134.0 million.
Defense Systems (28% of consolidated sales)
Cubic Defense Systems (CDS) is focused on two primary lines of business: training systems and secure communications. In the second quarter, training systems sales were up 25 percent to $87.6 million from $70.3 million last year while operating income was down 10 percent to 7.0 million this year from $7.8 million last year.
Certain CDS product lines previously categorized as “Other” have been reclassified into “Secure communications” due to a management realignment. Secure communications sales increased 50 percent from $10.4 million last year to $15.6 million this year, reflecting higher sales from personnel locator systems. Secure communications operating loss decreased to $0.6 million in the second quarter from $1.7 million last year primarily due to the increase in higher margin personnel locator system sales, which was partially offset by a loss on a data link contract.

CDS backlog is being negatively impacted by delays in contract awards and extensions, which are due in part to the budgetary uncertainties that our U.S. government customers are experiencing. CDS backlog was $381.1 million at March 31, 2013, down from $430.9 million at September 30, 2013.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
To supplement our consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), we use Adjusted EBITDA which represents net income attributable to Cubic before interest, taxes, non-operating income, depreciation and amortization. We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA provides useful information to investors with which to analyze our operating trends and performance and ability to service and incur debt. Also, Adjusted EBITDA is a factor we use in measuring our performance and compensating certain of our executives. Further, we believe Adjusted EBITDA facilitates company-to-company operating performance comparisons by backing out potential differences caused by variations in capital structures (affecting net interest expense), taxation and the age and book depreciation of property, plant and equipment (affecting relative depreciation expense), and non-operating expenses which may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to operating performance. In addition, we believe that Adjusted EBITDA is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in their evaluation of companies, many of which present an Adjusted EBITDA measure when reporting their results. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measurement of financial performance under GAAP and should not be considered as an alternative to net income as a measure of performance. In addition, other companies may define Adjusted EBITDA differently and, as a result, our measure of Adjusted EBITDA may not be directly comparable to Adjusted EBITDA of other companies. Furthermore, Adjusted EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP.
Because of these limitations, Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as a measure of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using Adjusted EBITDA only supplementally.&amp;#160;You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on Adjusted EBITDA.

The following table reconciles Adjusted EBITDA to net income attributable to Cubic, which we consider to be the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to Adjusted EBITDA.
