FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Stanley Adds New Customers, Contract Vehicles and Service Offerings
with Closing of Oberon Acquisition
ARLINGTON,
Va.
-
July 15, 2008
- Stanley, Inc.
(NYSE: SXE), a leading provider of systems integration and professional
services to the U.S. federal government, announced today that it has completed its
acquisition of Oberon Associates, Inc., an engineering, intelligence
operations and information technology services company.
As
previously announced, Stanley entered into a definitive agreement to acquire
Oberon on June 10, 2008. The purchase price at closing was approximately $170
million, net of cash acquired, subject to certain post-closing working capital
and other adjustments.
Founded
in 2002, Oberon provides engineering, operational intelligence and information
technology support to multiple elements of the U.S. Army, in addition to the
U.S. Air Force, Defense Information Systems Agency, Transportation Security Administration
and several agencies throughout the intelligence community. Oberon's areas of
expertise include biometrics systems engineering, integration and operational
deployment; intelligence community support; communications engineering; and
information technology and enterprise data management.
"The
acquisition of Oberon further expands the range of solutions offered to our
customers, bringing biometric applications experts, functional experts within
the intelligence community, and expertise in communications and information
management systems to Stanley", said Phil Nolan, Stanley's chairman, president
and CEO. "It also provides even greater career opportunities for our collective
employees".
The
acquisition of Oberon adds more than 600 employees, including 10 regional
offices in the United States and seven countries abroad.

Stanley
also announced that it has exercised and closed on an additional $69 million of
available credit through a partial exercise of the accordion feature associated
with the company's Senior Revolving Credit and Term Loan Facility. The additional
credit capacity was provided by three existing lenders and three new lenders.
"This
increase in our senior credit facility will be used in part to fund the
acquisition of Oberon and to provide additional funding for working capital
requirements", said Brian Clark, Stanley's executive vice president and chief financial
officer. "We are executing on our strategy to foster growth in new areas by
deploying the strength of Stanley's balance sheet for our mergers and
acquisitions program".
Stanley
will update its previously announced financial guidance to reflect the Oberon
acquisition in its fiscal first quarter 2009 earnings call scheduled for July 31,
2008, at 5:00 pm Eastern.
