JACK HENRY & ASSOCIATES FISCAL 2007 FIRST QUARTER NET INCOME INCREASES 10%
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Monett, MO. October 30, 2006 - Jack Henry & Associates, Inc. (Nasdaq: JKHY),
a leading provider of integrated technology solutions that performs data
processing for financial institutions, today announced first quarter fiscal
2007 results with a 10% increase in revenue, an increase of 12% in gross
profit which resulted in a 10% rise in net income over the first quarter of
fiscal 2006.
For the quarter ended September 30, 2006, the company generated total
revenue of $150.6 million, compared to $137.0 million in the same quarter a
year ago. Gross profit increased to $63.3 million compared to $56.6 million
in the first quarter of fiscal 2006. Net income totaled $21.4 million, or
$0.23 per diluted share, compared to $19.4 million, or $0.21 per diluted
share in the same quarter a year ago.
According to Jack Prim, CEO, "We are pleased with our performance in the
quarter which saw solid organic growth and continued strong growth in the
recurring revenue components of our support and services offerings. Our
National User Group meeting in Orlando last week had record attendance with
over 1,500 bankers. Several new products and partnerships were introduced
to this audience and received a strong reception which we believe bodes well
for the sales environment, particularly in the last half of the fiscal
year."
Operating Results
"During our first fiscal quarter of 2007, we continued to experience the
strong demand for our support and service offerings, which is reflected by a
solid increase in every component within this revenue line compared to the
same quarter a year ago," stated Tony Wormington, President. "Also, during
the quarter we continued to experience increasing demand for the products we
market under our ProfitStars brand to non-core customers, which had a
positive impact on both our revenue and earnings for the quarter compared to
the prior year."
License revenue decreased 8% to $15.5 million, or 10% of first quarter total
revenue, compared to $16.9 million, or 12% of first quarter total revenue
a year ago. Growth of implementation services, in-house support fees,
outsourcing, and ATM/Debit card switch fees and electronic payments
contributed to the 16% increase in support and service revenue which
expanded to $115.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2006 from $99.4
million for the same period a year ago. Support and service revenue grew to
77% of fiscal 2006 first quarter revenue from 73% of revenue last year.
Hardware sales in the first quarter of fiscal 2007 decreased 6% to $19.5
million, or 13% of total revenue in the first quarter, from $20.7 million,
or 15% of total revenue in the prior year's quarter.
Cost of sales for the first quarter increased 9%, from $80.4 million for the
three months ended September 30, 2005 to $87.3 million for the same period
in the current fiscal year. Gross profit in the current year first quarter
increased 12% to $63.3 million, representing a 42% gross margin, compared to
$56.6 million, or a 41% gross margin, last year. Cost of sales increased
primarily due to additional headcount, product costs and processing fees.
Gross margin on license revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2007 was 96%
compared to 95% a year ago for the same period and is primarily due to a
decrease in the amount of third party software delivered during the quarter.
Support and service gross margins improved to 37% in the first quarter of
fiscal 2007 from 35% a year ago due to continued leveraging of resources.
Hardware gross margins were also higher for the first quarter at 30%
compared to 26% for the same quarter last year primarily due to the sales
mix of hardware sold, and vendor rebates.
Operating expenses increased 17% to $30.4 million for the first quarter of
fiscal 2007 compared to $26.0 million for the same quarter a year ago
primarily due to increased headcount and related expenses. Selling and
marketing expenses rose 5% in the first quarter to $12.0 million from $11.4
million in the prior year's quarter. Selling and marketing expenses were 8%
of revenue for both years. Research and development expenses increased 26%
to $8.5 million or 6% of total revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2007,
from $6.7 million or 5% of total revenue for the same quarter of fiscal
2006. General and administrative costs increased 27% to $9.9 million, or 7%
of revenue, in the first quarter of fiscal year 2007, from $7.8 million, or
6% of revenue for the same quarter a year ago. The increase in general and
administrative costs is largely attributable to the costs related to the new
accounting software system that was implemented during fiscal 2006, for
increased personnel costs, increased amortization and maintenance expenses.
In addition, certain salaries were being capitalized as part of the
development of the new system in the first quarter of fiscal 2006 that are
currently being expensed.
Operating income grew 8% to $32.9 million compared to $30.6 million a year
ago. Operating income was 22% of revenue in both fiscal years. Provision
for income taxes in the first quarter of fiscal 2007 was 37.5% compared to
37.0% in the same period a year ago due to the termination of the Research
and Experimentation Tax Credit. First quarter net income totaled $21.4
million, or $0.23 per diluted share, compared to $19.4 million, or $0.21 per
diluted share in the first quarter of fiscal 2006.
For the first quarter of 2007, the bank systems and services segment revenue
increased 12% to $124.7 million, with a gross margin of 43% from $111.4
million in revenue with a gross margin of 42% in the first quarter in fiscal
2006. The credit union systems and services segment revenue increased 1% to
$25.9 million with a gross margin of 35% for the first quarter of 2007 from
revenue of $25.6 million with gross margin of 37% in the same quarter a year
ago. The decrease in gross margin for the credit union segment is due to a
decrease in license revenue from the prior year's quarter. License revenue
has substantially higher margins than other revenue components. "Gross
margin continues to remain solid and actually improved for almost every line
item of revenue, however, the sales mix of license, services and hardware
caused the total gross margin in the credit union segment to drop slightly
compared to a year ago," stated Kevin Williams, CFO.
Balance Sheet, Cash Flow, and Backlog Review
Cash, cash equivalents, and investments decreased to $51.6 million from
$56.6 million compared to September 30, 2005. During the first quarter, the
revolving debt facility of $50.0 million was paid in full with cash from
operations. Trade receivables increased $29.9 million, or 34% to $118.8
million compared to September 30, 2005 at $88.9 million. The increase is
primarily due to billings for deposits in conjunction with the continuing
growth in contracting activities, particularly those with larger financial
institutions.
Deferred revenue increased 14% to $155.9 million at September 30, 2006
compared to a year ago, due to increased prepaid in-house maintenance and
deposits. Stockholders' equity grew 8% to $575.8 million at September 30,
2006, from $530.9 million at September 30, 2005, which this increase is
primarily due to net income offset by the purchase of treasury shares during
the previous twelve months.
Cash flow from operations decreased to $61.5 million for the first quarter
of fiscal 2007 from $107.9 million for the same quarter in fiscal 2006. The
$46.4 million decrease consists primarily of a decrease in the change in
receivables of $59.7 million. This decrease is due to a change in the
timing of billings for annual software maintenance. The effects of the
decrease in the change in receivables were partially offset by a $2.0
million increase in net income, a $1.3 million increase in depreciation and
amortization, plus a combined increase of $0.5 million in deferred income
taxes, the loss on disposal of property and equipment and stock-based
compensation. Additionally, the increase of $3.0 million in accrued income
taxes, the combined $2.7 million change in prepaid, accrued expenses and
accounts payable and the change in deferred revenues of $3.8 million offset
the decrease in the change in receivables.
Net cash used in investing activities in the current quarter was $14.4
million and primarily included capital expenditures of $8.1 million and
capitalized software development of $4.8 million. In the first quarter in
fiscal 2006, net cash used in investing activities of $12.0 million and
primarily included capital expenditures of $8.0 million and capitalized
software development of $4.0 million.
Net cash from financing activities used cash of $71.4 million and included
repayment of a credit facility of $50.0 million, payment of dividends of
$5.0 million and the purchase of treasury stock of $19.8 million. Cash used
was offset by proceeds of $3.4 million from the exercise of stock options,
excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation and sale of common stock.
In the first quarter of fiscal 2006, cash used in financing activities was
$51.9 million and included repayment of a credit facility of $45.0 million,
payment of dividends of $4.1 million and the purchase of treasury stock of
$6.3 million. This cash used was offset by proceeds of $3.5 million from
the exercise of stock options and sale of common stock.
Backlog, which is a measure of future business and revenue, increased 8%
compared to year-ago levels to $222.4 million ($69.7 million in-house and
$152.7 million outsourcing) at September 30, 2006. Backlog at September 30,
2005, was $205.8 million ($63.4 million in-house and $142.4 million
outsourcing) and at June 30, 2006, it was $221.9 million ($66.3 million in-
house and $155.6 million outsourcing).
