international revenue to $195.4 million from $119.8 million.
CSC’s revenues from the U.S. federal government rose 1.9% to $449.3 million
from last year’s $440.9 million, and is consistent with the company’s
expectation that fiscal 2000 full year federal growth will reach the mid-single
digit range. Department of Defense (DoD) revenue declined slightly, reflecting
the end of certain contracts. Civil agency revenues grew 9.3% as growth from
other civil agencies more than offset expected NASA reductions.
CSC ’s federal market pipeline of opportunities over the next 30 months is an
extremely robust $22 billion and the overall market for information technology
services to the U.S. federal government is as vital as it has ever been.
Escalating e-business engagements place CSC well on the way to achieving a
substantial increase in such revenues for fiscal 2000. The rapidly growing
utilization of the Web to enhance the competitiveness and efficiency of clients
presents abundant opportunities for CSC, which is uniquely positioned to offer
end-to-end capabilities encompassing a balance of strategy, experience and
technology. These exciting developments in e-business applications and
solutions are being driven by the need of both public and private organizations
to achieve higher levels of responsiveness, customer satisfaction and results.
