(BUSINESS WIRE) — August 7, 2015 — Harris Corporation (NYSE: HRS) reported fiscal 2015 fourth quarter results, which included results of Exelis Inc. following the May 29, 2015 acquisition closing date.
Revenue in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015 was $1.53 billion, compared with $1.33 billion in the prior year. GAAP loss from continuing operations was $56 million, or $0.51 per diluted share. Non-GAAP income from continuing operations in the fourth quarter was $148 million, or $1.32 per diluted share, and excluded acquisition-related costs and charges for restructuring and other items. The net benefit from the Exelis acquisition to Harris non-GAAP income from continuing operations was $0.09 per diluted share. Prior year GAAP income from continuing operations was $138 million, or $1.28 per diluted share. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures is provided in the tables.
Orders in the fourth quarter were $1.53 billion compared with $1.09 billion in the prior year. Free cash flow (net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures) in the fourth quarter was $413 million compared with $334 million in the prior year.
“Fourth quarter results were solid, and the integration of Harris and Exelis is off to a good start,” said William M. Brown, chairman, president and chief executive officer. “We announced our reorganization into four market-focused segments for fiscal 2016 and we consolidated headquarters, combining the top talent from across both companies. We also announced our intention to close Exelis’ Ft. Wayne tactical radio facility and consolidate operations into our world-class Rochester facility. These initial integration steps mark good progress towards achieving the significant cost savings and improved competitive position this combination affords us.”
For full fiscal year 2015, revenue was $5.08 billion compared with $5.01 billion in the prior year. GAAP income from continuing operations was $334 million, or $3.11 per diluted share.

Higher revenue from the Foundation GEOINT Content Management program, the F-35 program, and Highband Networking Radios™ for the U.S. Army’s Warfighter Information Network – Tactical (WIN-T) Increment 2 program was partially offset by lower revenue from two classified programs and the U.S. Navy’s Commercial Broadband Satellite program.

Harris also was awarded contracts totaling $21 million from classified customers.
