Item 1.01 Entry Into Material Definitive Agreement
On July 29, 2008 Registrant acquired all outstanding capital stock of the privately-held Omega Training Group, Inc., headquartered in Columbus, Georgia. The purchase was for $61 million in cash which was funded from existing cash reserves. Omega provides training, testing, analysis, logistics and staffing services to U.S. Army locations at the U.S. Army Infantry School at Fort Benning, Fort Bliss, Fort Jackson and Fort Hood. None of these locations are significant customers of Registrant’s Defense Group. Founded in 1990, Omega now has 790 employees worldwide.
Omega will be managed within Registrant’s Mission Support Business Unit. Registrant estimates revenues from Omega will be approximately $60-70 million during the fiscal year ending September 30, 2009.
