Operating Results
“We continued our strong growth in fiscal 2013 with record revenue for the quarter and the first nine months compared to any fiscal year, along with record backlog as March 31," stated Tony Wormington, President. “We had strong license growth in the quarter compared to last year's quarter. However, our support and services revenue was once again the leading contributor to our total revenue growth with 11% growth in that revenue line for the quarter compared to last year. Once again the primary driver within support and services is our electronic payments.”
License revenue for the third quarter increased to $16.7 million from $15.0 million a year ago, and was 6% of total revenue in both quarters.

For the nine months ended March 31, 2013 gross margin on license was 91% compared to 89% for the nine months ended March 31, 2012. The change in license gross margin for both the quarter and nine months is a result of fluctuations in the sales mix of products delivered.

The support and service gross margin was 41% for the nine month periods ending March 31, 2013 compared to 40% in the same period last year.

For the nine months ended March 31, 2013, operating expenses increased 14% to $160.1 million, compared to $140.1 million for the same period a year ago, which was significantly impacted by the Lyndhurst, New Jersey expenses noted last quarter.

According to Kevin Williams, CFO, “our provision for income taxes decrease for the quarter was due primarily to the Research and Experimentation Credit ("R&E Credit"), being signed into law during the quarter, which retroactively extended the credit from January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2013. The decrease in the provision for the first nine months is due to this and the release of previously unrecognized tax benefits last quarter."

Gross margin was 40% in both the current and prior year fiscal quarters.
