2003 Annual Report  ManTech International Corporation

Letter to Our Shareholders

2003 was an outstanding year for ManTech International.

We achieved record growth in revenue and earnings,

successfully acquired two companies and expanded our

business base.

Strong Financial Performance

Our revenues rose 40 percent to $701.6 million in 2003

compared to $500.2 million in the prior year. Operating

income increased 58 percent to $61 million in 2003.

Operating income margins, driven largely by improvements

in contract margins and a shift in contract mix, improved

to 8.7 percent during the year, up from 7.7 percent in

2002. Earnings per share on a fully diluted basis were

$1.09 last year, a 47 percent increase over the $0.74 

earnings per share in 2002.

Disciplined Execution

In 2003 we took advantage of significant opportunities 

in our markets and we boosted our internal growth by

approximately 14 percent and continued to make strategic

acquisitions.The acquisitions we made over the past year-

and-a-half have enhanced our technical capabilities,

deepened our penetration into select target markets in

defense and intelligence, and contributed significantly to

sales and profit growth.Throughout 2003 we remained

true to the strategic course we charted in 2001 to apply

ManTech’s innovative technologies and solutions to

advance national security programs that support the 

war on terrorism.
