BOOZ ALLEN HAMILTON ANNOUNCES
FIRST QUARTER FISCAL 2019 RESULTS
Strong Performance Consistent with Three-Year Goals
Revenue Increase of 8.1 percent to $1.65 billion, and Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses1 Growth of 9.2 percent
Diluted Earnings Per Share and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share1, both of $0.72
21.4 percent Increase in Total Backlog to $17.1 Billion, New Record Since IPO; and Record First Quarter Book-to-Bill of 1.64x
Quarterly Dividend of $0.19 per Share
McLean, Virginia; July 30, 2018 - Booz Allen Hamilton Holding Corporation (NYSE: BAH), the parent company of management and technology consulting and engineering services firm Booz Allen Hamilton Inc., today announced preliminary results for the first quarter of fiscal 2019.
The Company delivered strong first quarter results that support its fiscal year 2019 guidance, as well as the investment thesis detailed at Booz Allen’s Investor Day in June.
“We are capitalizing on the unique position in the market that we have created by transforming Booz Allen over the past six years,” said Horacio Rozanski, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Our clients now have the resources to do what they have wanted and needed to do for several years: integrate leading-edge technology into their most important missions.”
The Company reported first-quarter revenue growth of 8.1 percent, and a 9.2 percent increase in revenue, excluding billable expenses.1 The strong top-line growth contributed to a 25.1 percent increase in Adjusted EBITDA1 to $177.8 million, and Adjusted EBITDA margin on revenue1 was 10.8 percent. Adjusted diluted earnings per share1 for the quarter was $0.72, up 53.2 percent.
Total backlog increased by 21.4 percent over the prior year period to $17.1 billion and the book-to-bill ratio for the first quarter was 1.64. Headcount was 4.7 percent above the end of the prior year period, with a slight sequential decline in the first quarter.
The Company adopted two accounting standards, ASC 606 and ASU 2017-07, both effective April 1, 2018; accordingly, the first quarter fiscal 2018 results have been restated. Adoption of these two standards is factored into fiscal 2019 guidance and is not expected to be material to full-year results. Additional information on the revenue and operating income impacts of adopting these accounting standards is available in the Company’s Form 10-Q for the first quarter of fiscal 2019.
The Company declared a regular quarterly dividend of $0.19 per share, which is payable on August 31, 2018, to stockholders of record on August 14, 2018.
Financial Summary
First Quarter, Ended June 30, 2018 - A summary of Booz Allen’s results for the first quarter of fiscal 2019 is below. All comparisons are to the prior year period, as restated, and a description of key drivers can be found in the Company’s Earnings Call Presentation for the first quarter posted on investors.boozallen.com.

| |
• | Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses:1 $1.17 billion, an increase of 9.2 percent. |
| |
• | Operating Income and Adjusted Operating Income:1 Each $161.6 million, and each an increase of 27.6 percent. |

Net cash used in operating activities for the first quarter of fiscal 2019 was $(27.0) million as compared to $4.0 million in net cash provided by operating activities in the prior year period.

1 Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Diluted EPS, Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue and Free Cash Flow are non-GAAP financial measures. See “Non-GAAP Financial Information” below for additional detail.
Financial Outlook
For our fiscal 2019, we are reaffirming guidance issued on May 29, 2018:
| |
• | Revenue: Growth in the 6 to 8 percent range |
| |
• | Adjusted Diluted EPS: 1 $2.35 - $2.50 |
This EPS estimate is based on fiscal 2019 estimated average diluted shares outstanding in the range of 141 million to 145 million shares, and assumes an effective tax rate in the range of 25 percent to 27 percent, which reflects recent changes in U.S. tax law.

Non-GAAP Financial Information
“Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses” represents revenue less billable expenses. Booz Allen uses Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses because it provides management useful information about the Company's operating performance by excluding the impact of costs that are not indicative of the level of productivity of its consulting staff headcount and its overall direct labor, which management believes provides useful information to its investors about its core operations.
“Adjusted Operating Income” represents Operating Income before: (i) adjustments related to the amortization of intangible assets resulting from the acquisition of our Company by The Carlyle Group (the “Carlyle Acquisition”), and (ii) transaction costs, fees, losses, and expenses, including fees associated with debt prepayments. Booz Allen prepares Adjusted Operating Income to eliminate the impact of items it does not consider indicative of ongoing operating performance due to their inherent unusual, extraordinary or non-recurring nature or because they result from an event of a similar nature.
“Adjusted EBITDA” represents net income before income taxes, net interest and other expense and depreciation and amortization before certain other items, including transaction costs, fees, losses, and expenses, including fees associated with debt prepayments. “Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue” is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue. "Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses" is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA divided by Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses. Booz Allen prepares Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses to eliminate the impact of items it does not consider indicative of ongoing operating performance due to their inherent unusual, extraordinary or non-recurring nature or because they result from an event of a similar nature.
“Adjusted Net Income” represents net income before: (i) adjustments related to the amortization of intangible assets resulting from the Carlyle Acquisition, (ii) transaction costs, fees, losses, and expenses, including fees associated with debt prepayments, (iii) amortization or write-off of debt issuance costs and write-off of original issue discount, (iv) release of income tax reserves, and (v) re-measurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities as a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “2017 Tax Act”) in each case net of the tax effect where appropriate calculated using an assumed effective tax rate. Booz Allen prepares Adjusted Net Income to eliminate the impact of items, net of tax, it does not consider indicative of ongoing operating performance due to their inherent unusual, extraordinary or non-recurring nature or because they result from an event of a similar nature. We view net income excluding the impact of the re-
measurement of the Company's deferred tax assets and liabilities as a result of the 2017 Tax Act as an important indicator of performance consistent with the manner in which management measures and forecasts the Company's performance and the way in which management is incentivized to perform.
“Adjusted Diluted EPS” represents diluted EPS calculated using Adjusted Net Income as opposed to Net Income. Additionally, Adjusted Diluted EPS does not contemplate any adjustments to net income as required under the two-class method of calculating EPS as required in accordance with GAAP.
“Free Cash Flow” represents the net cash generated from operating activities less the impact of purchases of property and equipment.
Booz Allen utilizes and discusses in this release Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue, Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Diluted EPS because management uses these measures for business planning purposes, including managing its business against internal projected results of operations and measuring its performance. Management views Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue, Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Diluted EPS as measures of the core operating business, which exclude the impact of the items detailed in the supplemental exhibits, as these items are generally not operational in nature. These supplemental performance measures also provide another basis for comparing period to period results by excluding potential differences caused by non-operational and unusual or non-recurring items. Management also utilizes Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses because it provides management useful information about the Company's operating performance by excluding the impact of costs that are not indicative of the level of productivity of its consulting staff headcount and its overall direct labor, which management believes provides useful information to its investors about its core operations. Booz Allen also utilizes and discusses Free Cash Flow in this release because management uses this measure for business planning purposes, measuring the cash generating ability of the operating business and measuring liquidity generally. Booz Allen presents these supplemental measures because it believes that these measures provide investors and securities analysts with important supplemental information with which to evaluate Booz Allen’s performance, long term earnings potential, or liquidity, as applicable, and to enable them to assess Booz Allen’s performance on the same basis as management. These supplemental performance measurements may vary from and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures by other companies in Booz Allen’s industry. Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue, Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, and Free Cash Flow are not recognized measurements under GAAP and when analyzing Booz Allen’s performance or liquidity, as applicable, investors should (i) evaluate each adjustment in our reconciliation of revenue to Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses, operating income to Adjusted Operating Income, net income to Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue, Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share, and net cash provided by operating activities to Free Cash Flow, (ii) use Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue, Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Diluted EPS in addition to, and not as an alternative to revenue, operating income, net income or diluted EPS as measures of operating results, each as defined under GAAP, and (iii) use Free Cash Flow, in addition to, and not as an alternative to, net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of liquidity, each as defined under GAAP. Exhibit 4 includes a reconciliation of Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue, Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, and Free Cash Flow to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.
With respect to our expectations under “Financial Outlook” above, a reconciliation of Adjusted Diluted EPS guidance to the closest corresponding GAAP measure is not available without unreasonable efforts on a forward-looking basis due to our inability to predict our stock price, equity grants and dividend declarations during the course of fiscal 2019. Projecting future stock price, equity grants and dividends to be declared would be necessary to accurately calculate the difference between Adjusted Diluted EPS and GAAP EPS as a result of the effects of the two-class method and related possible dilution used in the calculation of EPS. Consequently, any attempt to disclose such reconciliation would imply a degree of precision that could be confusing or misleading to investors. We expect the variability of the above charges to have an unpredictable, and potentially significant, impact on our future GAAP financial results.

Additional information concerning these and other factors can be found in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), including our Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on May 29, 2018.
All forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the foregoing cautionary statements. All such statements speak only as of the date made and, except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

DISCLAIMER Forward Looking Safe Harbor Statement Certain statements contained in this presentation and in related comments by our management include “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Examples of forward-looking statements include information concerning Booz Allen’s preliminary financial results, financial outlook and guidance, including forecasted revenue, Diluted EPS, Adjusted Diluted EPS, free cash flow, future quarterly dividends, and future improvements in operating margins, as well as any other statement that does not directly relate to any historical or current fact. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “could,” “should,” “forecasts,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “projects,” “outlook,” “believes,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” “preliminary,” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, we can give you no assurance these expectations will prove to have been correct. These forward-looking statements relate to future events or our future financial performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to differ materially from any future results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. A number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in or implied by these forward-looking statements, including those factors discussed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018, which can be found at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. All forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the foregoing cautionary statements. All such statements speak only as of the date made and, except as required by law, we undertake no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Note Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Data Information Booz Allen discloses in the following information Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue, Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, and Free Cash Flow which are not recognized measurements under GAAP, and when analyzing Booz Allen’s performance or liquidity as applicable, investors should (i) evaluate each adjustment in our reconciliation of revenue to Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses, operating income to Adjusted Operating Income, net income to Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue, Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share, and net cash provided by operating activities to Free Cash Flow, and the explanatory footnotes regarding those adjustments, each as defined under GAAP, (ii) use Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue, Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue Excluding Billable Expenses, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted Diluted EPS in addition to, and not as an alternative to revenue, operating income, net income or diluted EPS as measures of operating results, and (iii) use Free Cash Flow in addition to and not as an alternative to net cash provided by operating activities as a measure of liquidity, each as defined under GAAP. The Financial Appendix includes a reconciliation of Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses, Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue, Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, and Free Cash Flow to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Booz Allen presents these supplemental performance measures because it believes that these measures provide investors and securities analysts with important supplemental information with which to evaluate Booz Allen’s performance, long term earnings potential, or liquidity, as applicable and to enable them to assess Booz Allen’s performance on the same basis as management. These supplemental performance and liquidity measurements may vary from and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures by other companies in Booz Allen’s industry. With respect to our expectations under “Fiscal 2019 Full Year Outlook,” reconciliation of Adjusted Diluted EPS guidance to the closest corresponding GAAP measure is not available without unreasonable efforts on a forward-looking basis due to our inability to predict our stock price, equity grants and dividend declarations during the course of fiscal 2019. Projecting future stock price, equity grants and dividends to be declared would be necessary to accurately calculate the difference between Adjusted Diluted EPS and GAAP EPS as a result of the effects of the two-class method and related possible dilution used in the calculation of EPS. Consequently, any attempt to disclose such reconciliation would imply a degree of precision that could be confusing or misleading to investors. We expect the variability of the above charges to have an unpredictable, and potentially significant, impact on our future GAAP financial results. 2

Additionally, on April 1, 2018, we adopted FASB Accounting Standard Update (ASU) No. 2017-07, Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Cost, on a fully retrospective method beginning with fiscal 2017. For more information on the impacts the adoption of these standards had on the Company's accounting policies, practices, estimates, or significant judgments, refer to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2018 and Notes 2 and 3 found in the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2018 2) ASU 2017-07 changed the presentation of net periodic benefit cost components on the consolidated statement of operations. Under ASU 2017-07, $7.6 million and $8.0 million of net periodic benefit costs related to non-service components were reclassified to Other income (expense), net in the consolidated statement of operations for fiscal 2018 and fiscal 2017, respectively 4

The impact of this change relates to the interim financial reporting period differences between the actual indirect cost incurred and allocated to contracts compared to the estimated amounts allocated to contracts using the estimated annual forward-pricing rates established with the U.S. government. Prior to the adoption of ASC 606, the Company’s practice was to record during interim reporting periods adjustments to revenue based on the indirect spending incurred as of that interim period ended primarily for cost-reimbursable and fixed-price contracts 2) Under ASU 2017-07, $1.9 million and $2.0 million of net periodic benefit costs related to non-service components were reclassified to Other income (expense), net in the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the quarterly periods during fiscal 2018 and fiscal 2017, respectively 5

APPENDIX
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION • "Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses" represents revenue less billable expenses. We use Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses because it provides management useful information about the Company's operating performance by excluding the impact of costs that are not indicative of the level of productivity of our consulting staff headcount and our overall direct labor, which management believes provides useful information to our investors about our core operations. • "Adjusted Operating Income" represents operating income before: (i) adjustments related to the amortization of intangible assets resulting from the acquisition of our Company by The Carlyle Group (the “Carlyle Acquisition”), and (ii) transaction costs, fees, losses, and expenses, including fees associated with debt prepayments. We prepare Adjusted Operating Income to eliminate the impact of items we do not consider indicative of ongoing operating performance due to their inherent unusual, extraordinary, or non-recurring nature or because they result from an event of a similar nature. • "Adjusted EBITDA" represents net income before income taxes, net interest and other expense and depreciation and amortization and before certain other items, including transaction costs, fees, losses, and expenses, including fees associated with debt prepayments. “Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue” is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA divided by revenue. Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses is calculated as Adjusted EBITDA divided by Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses. The Company prepares Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin on Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses to eliminate the impact of items it does not consider indicative of ongoing operating performance due to their inherent unusual, extraordinary or non-recurring nature or because they result from an event of a similar nature. • "Adjusted Net Income" represents net income before: (i) adjustments related to the amortization of intangible assets resulting from the Carlyle Acquisition, (ii) transaction costs, fees, losses, and expenses, including fees associated with debt prepayments, (iii) amortization or write-off of debt issuance costs and write-off of original issue discount, (iv) release of income tax reserves, and (v) re-measurement of deferred tax assets and liabilities as a result of the 2017 Tax Act in each case net of the tax effect where appropriate calculated using an assumed effective tax rate. We prepare Adjusted Net Income to eliminate the impact of items, net of tax, we do not consider indicative of ongoing operating performance due to their inherent unusual, extraordinary, or non-recurring nature or because they result from an event of a similar nature. We view net income excluding the impact of the re-measurement of the Company's deferred tax assets and liabilities as a result of the 2017 Tax Act as an important indicator of performance consistent with the manner in which management measures and forecasts the Company's performance and the way in which management is incentivized to perform. • "Adjusted Diluted EPS" represents diluted EPS calculated using Adjusted Net Income as opposed to net income. Additionally, Adjusted Diluted EPS does not contemplate any adjustments to net income as required under the two-class method as disclosed in the footnotes to the consolidated financial statements. • "Free Cash Flow" represents the net cash generated from operating activities less the impact of purchases of property and equipment. 10
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL INFORMATION (a) Reflects the combination of Interest expense and Other income (expense), net from the condensed consolidated statement of operations. (b) The first quarter of fiscal 2018 reflects the tax effect of adjustments at an assumed effective tax rate of 40%. For fiscal 2019, with the enactment of the 2017 Tax Act, adjustments are reflected using an assumed effective tax rate of 26%, which approximates a blended federal and state tax rate for fiscal 2019, and consistently excludes the impact of other tax credits and incentive benefits realized. (c) Excludes an adjustment of approximately $0.6 million and $0.5 million of net earnings for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, associated with the application of the two-class method for computing diluted earnings per share. 11
FINANCIAL RESULTS – KEY DRIVERS First Quarter Fiscal 2019 – Below is a summary of the key factors driving results for the fiscal 2019 first quarter ended June 30, 2018 as compared to the prior year: • Revenue increased by 8.1% to $1.6 billion driven by continued strength in client demand, which led to a total headcount increase of more than 1,100 and an increase in direct client staff labor, as well as improved contract performance. • Revenue, Excluding Billable Expenses increased 9.2% to $1.2 billion due to increased client demand which led to increased client staff headcount, an increase in direct client staff labor, and improved contract performance. • Operating Income and Adjusted Operating Income both increased 27.6% to $161.6 million. Increases in both were primarily driven by the same factors driving revenue growth, as well as strong operating performance. • Net income increased 47.6% to $104.2 million and Adjusted Net Income increased 47.4% to $104.7 million. These increases were primarily driven by the same factors as Operating Income and Adjusted Operating Income. Additionally, Net Income and Adjusted Net Income benefitted from the Company’s recognition of an additional income tax benefit of approximately $15.9 million driven by a lower federal corporate tax rate. The increases in Net Income and Adjusted Net Income were partially offset by an increase in interest expense of $4.3 million primarily due to interest on the Senior Notes as well as increases in interest on the Company’s term loans due to rising LIBOR rates. • EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA both increased 25.1% to $177.8 million. These increases were due to the same factors as Operating Income and Adjusted Operating Income. • Diluted EPS and Adjusted Diluted EPS both increased to $0.72 from $0.47 in the prior year period. The increases were primarily driven by the same factors as Net Income and Adjusted Net Income, as well as a lower share count in the first quarter of fiscal 2019. • Net cash used in operating activities was $(27.0) million as of June 30, 2018 as compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $4.0 million as of June 30, 2017. The decline was primarily due to delays in the billing and collection of our revenue growth, which includes administrative delays in client payment processing and a decrease in accounts payable associated with the timing of vendor payments. Free Cash Flow was $(47.5) million as of June 30, 2018 as compared to $(7.5) million as of June 30, 2017. The decline was due to the same factors affecting cash provided by operating activities, as well as an increase in capital expenditures related to software and infrastructure investments to support operations and growth. We expect to generate operating cash flow of approximately $380 million to $420 million and spend approximately $100 million on capital expenditures for fiscal 2019. This would result in a fiscal 2019 free cash flow range of approximately $280 million to $320 million. Assuming the midpoint of our fiscal 2019 free cash flow range, or approximately $300 million, and growing fiscal 2019 revenue to approximately $6.6 billion, the midpoint of our fiscal 2019 revenue guidance range of 6 to 8 percent growth over fiscal 2018, we expect our free cash flow as a percentage of our revenue to be approximately 4.5 percent for fiscal 2019. • As of March 31, 2018, total backlog was $17.1 billion, an increase of 21.4% compared to June 30, 2017. Funded backlog increased 11.6%. 12
