"Our first quarter revenue and operating income declined as compared to prior year levels," said Maurice "Mo" Gauthier, VSE CEO. Our Supply Chain Management Group continues to provide consistent results while our other Groups are impacted by our client's contracting and budgeting challenges. In response to these challenges, we took actions in April 2013 to reduce our indirect costs to achieve and retain balance with our workload. We will continue to make such adjustments as dictated by market conditions."
Mr. Gauthier continued, "We are pleased to report a stronger quarter for bookings as compared to current revenues. Our cash flow remains strong and we continue to pay down our debt, which positions us to consider a variety of options to increase shareholder value and remain focused on our long term strategy of diversification into adjacent markets."
For the first quarter of 2013, revenues were $119.2 million compared to $140.0 million in the first quarter of 2012. Operating income for the first quarter of 2013 was $9.9 million compared to $12.5 million in the first quarter of 2012. Revenues from our Supply Chain Management Group remained steady, while revenues from our Federal, International, and IT, Energy and Management Consulting Groups declined compared to the prior year.
Income from continuing operations for the first quarter of 2013 was $5.3 million, or $0.99 per diluted share, compared to $6.8 million, or $1.28 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2012.
Bookings were $154 million in the first quarter of 2013 as compared to revenue of $119 million. Funded contract backlog at March 31, 2013 was $264 million, compared to $250 million at December 31, 2012 and $299 million at March 31, 2012.
In April 2013, we made staff reductions and implemented plans for future actions that are expected to result in an estimated $6 million of reduced indirect labor and related costs in 2013. We will continue to assess the need for further reductions to remain competitive and profitable as we go forward.
