Kratos Defense & Security Solutions Inc. (KTOS, Financial) filed Annual Report for the period ended 2011-12-25.
Kratos Defense has a market cap of $211.2 million; its shares were traded at around $5.93 with and P/S ratio of 0.5.
Product sales, which are all from the KGS segment, increased $245.8 million from $123.7 million for the year ended December 26, 2010 to $369.5 million for the year ended December 25, 2011. As a percentage of total revenue, product revenues were 30.3% for the year ended December 26, 2010 as compared to 51.1% for the year ended December 25, 2011. This increase was primarily related to the acquisitions of Herley and Integral. Service revenue decreased in the KGS segment by $7.1 million from $248.5 million for the year ended December 26, 2010 to $241.4 million for the year ended December 25, 2011. The decrease in service revenue was primarily a result of our acquisition of Integral, which had service revenue of $51.1 million offset by decreases in revenue of $58.2 million due to increased competitive pricing pressures experienced in our legacy services businesses, resulting in the reduction of revenues, and to a lesser extent expected reductions of small business set aside contract work from companies we previously acquired and in-sourcing of our employees by the U.S. Government in certain of our businesses in the KGS segment. The increase in revenue in the PSS segment is a result of the acquisition of HBE.
Cost of revenues. Cost of revenues increased from $270.9 million for the year ended December 27, 2009 to $324.2 million for the year ended December 26, 2010. The $53.3 million increase in cost of revenues was primarily a result of the acquisition of Gichner and DEI and to a lesser extent by the acquisitions of SCT and HBE partially offset by reductions in revenue and reduced costs as a result of increased margins due to planned reductions of lower margin pass though work in our KGS segment. Gichner and DEI incurred combined cost of revenues of $85.4 million and SCT and HBE incurred combined cost of revenues of $1.2 million. Gross margin increased from 19.0% for the year ended December 27, 2009 to 20.6% for the year ended December 26, 2010. The margin on service revenue increased from 18.6% to 22.3% for the year ended December 27, 2009 and December 26, 2010, respectively. This increase was due primarily to the planned reductions of lower margin pass through work. Gross margins on product sales decreased for the year ended December 26, 2010 as compared to December 27, 2009 from 25.9% to 16.7%, respectively, as a result of the Gichner acquisition and the associated product mix. Margins in the PSS segment increased from 29.5% for the year ended December 27, 2009 to 32.0% for the year ended December 26, 2010 as a result of performance improvements and revenue growth.
Selling, general and administrative expenses. Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") increased $9.6 million from $47.7 million to $57.3 million for the years ended December 27, 2009 and December 26, 2010, respectively. The increase of $9.6 million was primarily due to an increase in costs of $12.5 million from the acquisitions of Gichner, DEI, SCT, and HBE offset by reduction in SG&A in our KGS segment. Included in the SG&A expenses for 2009 and 2010 are amortization of purchased intangibles of $5.7 million and $9.2 million, respectively. The increase in amortization year over year was primarily a result of the Gichner and DEI acquisitions. As a percentage of revenues, SG&A decreased from 14.3% in 2009 to 14.0% in 2010. Excluding the impact of the amortization of purchased intangibles, SG&A expenses decreased from 12.6% to 11.5% of revenues for 2009 and 2010, respectively, reflecting leverage on increased revenues.
Loss from discontinued operations. Loss from discontinued operations improved from a loss of $3.2 million to a loss of $0.1 million for the year ended December 27, 2009 and December 26, 2010, respectively. In 2009, $2.0 million of the loss was related to the impairment of assets related to the Southeast Division recorded to reflect management's estimate of the fair value of this business. In 2010, the loss was primarily due to a reduction in liabilities as a result of the final settlement of sales and use tax liabilities related to our discontinued wireless deployment business partially offset by losses in the Southeast Division. Revenues generated by these businesses were approximately $5.9 million and $2.2 million for the year ended December 27, 2009 and December 26, 2010, respectively. Excluding the impairment charge, losses before taxes were $1.8 million for the year ended December 27, 2009 and $0.9 million for the year ended December 26, 2010. For the year ended December 27, 2009 and December 26, 2010, we recognized a tax benefit of $0.6 million and $0.8 million, respectively, primarily related to the expiration of the statute of limitations for certain domestic and foreign tax contingencies. In August 2010, we divested our Southeast Division for approximately $0.1 million cash consideration and the assumption of certain liabilities.

Highlight of Business Operations:
On August 9, 2010, we acquired DEI in a cash merger valued at approximately $14.0 million, of which $9.0 million was paid in cash at closing and approximately $5.0 million of which represented the acquisition date fair value of additional performance-based consideration, of which $0.4 million was achieved and paid in September 2010 and $2.5 million was earned for 2011 and is expected to be paid in March 2012, subject to potential reductions if certain cash receipts are not collected. The fair value of the DEI Contingent Consideration (as defined below) was increased by $0.4 million during the three-month period ended September 25, 2011. Pursuant to the terms of the DEI Agreement, upon achievement of certain cash receipts, revenue, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ("EBITDA") and backlog amounts in 2010, 2011 and 2012, we will be obligated to pay the former stockholders of DEI certain additional contingent consideration (the "DEI Contingent Consideration"). As of December 25, 2011, the potential undiscounted amount of future DEI Contingent Consideration including the amount earned in 2011 that may be payable by us for performance under the DEI Agreement is between $2.5 million and $6.5 million, which includes $2.5 million earned for 2011. The DEI Contingent Consideration will be reduced in the event certain anticipated cash receipts are not collected within agreed upon time periods, which could decrease the future payments by approximately $6.0 million.Product sales, which are all from the KGS segment, increased $245.8 million from $123.7 million for the year ended December 26, 2010 to $369.5 million for the year ended December 25, 2011.
