Harris Corporation (NYSE:HRS) reported revenue in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016 of $1.90 billion compared with $1.53 billion in the prior year. GAAP income from continuing operations was $162 million, or $1.29 per diluted share, and non-GAAP income from continuing operations was $183 million, or $1.45 per diluted share, excluding acquisition-related costs and restructuring and other charges. In the prior year quarter, GAAP loss from continuing operations was $56 million, or $0.51 per diluted share, and non-GAAP income from continuing operations was $148 million, or $1.32 per diluted share, excluding acquisition-related costs and restructuring and other charges.
For full fiscal year 2016, revenue was $7.47 billion, compared with $5.08 billion in the prior year. GAAP income from continuing operations was $345 million, or $2.75 per diluted share, and non-GAAP income from continuing operations was $715 million, or $5.70 per diluted share, excluding acquisition-related items, asset impairments and restructuring and other charges. In the prior year, GAAP income from continuing operations was $334 million, or $3.11 per diluted share, and non-GAAP income from continuing operations was $551 million, or $5.14 per diluted share, excluding acquisition-related costs and restructuring and other charges. Fiscal 2016 orders were $7.51 billion, bringing book-to-bill for the year to greater than one. Net cash provided by operating activities was $924 million and free cash flow was $772 million. Fourth quarter and full fiscal year 2015 results included results of Exelis operations only for the partial period following the May 29, 2015 acquisition closing date. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures is provided in the tables.
Our results reflect our continued success in integrating Exelis and achieving our targets for synergy savings and earnings accretion, said William M. Brown, chairman, president and chief executive officer. We delivered on our earnings goals and ended the year with a book-to-bill of greater than one. This performance demonstrates the benefits of the Exelis acquisition, which has added scale, technology, and greater operating resilience against the backdrop of lower tactical revenue. Our company-wide operational excellence initiatives continued to lower costs, drive strong cash flow and improve execution and customer satisfaction. We also met our fiscal 2016 deleveraging goals and continued to reshape our portfolio with the April sale of Aerostructures.
Combining the capabilities of Harris and Exelis enables our company to address the most compelling opportunities in the marketplace, Brown continued. While we continue to face top-line pressure in certain markets in fiscal 2017, the long-term trends driving demand are positive. We will capitalize on these opportunities through commitment to innovation and creation of product and systems-based solutions that leverage extensive capabilities across our businesses. In the near-term, we expect the synergies we are achieving through the Exelis transaction, as well as our focus on operational excellence, to continue to positively impact our results. Overall, we are committed to driving sustainable long-term growth and creating significant value for our shareholders.
