SunGard Data Systems Inc.
Announces Third Quarter 1995 Results,
Acquisitions and Management Changes
Wayne, PA -- SunGard Data Systems Inc. reported today that net income for
the quarter ended September 30, 1995 was $12,008,000, compared to net
income of $10,744,000 for the third quarter of 1994. Fully diluted
earnings per share were $0.31 for the quarter, compared to $0.28 for the
quarter ended September 30, 1994. Results for 1995's third quarter include
one-time, after-tax merger costs of $1,351,000 associated with the
previously announced acquisition of Intelus Corporation. Excluding the
one-time costs, net income for the quarter was $13,359,000, an increase of
24.3% over net income for the third quarter of 1994, and fully diluted
earnings per share were $0.34, an increase of 21.4%.
For the first nine months of 1995, net income was $35,347,000, compared to
the prior year's nine-month results of $30,585,000. Fully diluted earnings
per share were $0.91, compared to $0.79 for the first nine months of 1994.
Excluding the one-time, after-tax merger costs, net income for the quarter
ended September 30, 1995 was $36,698,000, an increase of 20.0%, and fully
diluted earnings per share were $0.95, an increase of 20.3%.
Revenues for the third quarter of 1995 were $132,114,000, up 20.2% over
third-quarter 1994 revenues of $109,908,000. For the nine months ended
September 30, 1995, revenues of $378,723,000 increased 19.6% over revenues
of $316,652,000 for the comparable period last year.
James L. Mann, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "Results for
the third quarter met
expectations. As previously announced, our outlook for fully diluted
earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 1995 remains in the
range of $1.26 to $1.31, prior to merger costs." This outlook, which may
change, is based upon management's current assessment of both internal and
external factors.
Mann continued, "Our acquisition activity level in the third quarter of
1995 was particularly high. In addition to the acquisitions of Bi-Tech
Software, Inc. on July 14 and Intelus Corporation on August 31, we
announced definitive agreements to acquire MACESS Corporation and
Renaissance Software Inc. Also during the third quarter, we acquired All
Solutions Financial Systems of Perth, Western Australia, and Market
Investment Solutions Inc. (MIS) of Aurora, Colorado." All Solutions, a
provider of fund and asset administration systems in Australia and New
Zealand, joins SunGard's Trust and Shareholder Systems Group. MIS, a
provider of PC-based investment management, accounting and reporting
systems for the insurance industry, is part of SunGard's Financial Systems
Group.
SunGard also announced the naming of two new group chief executives.
Michael K. Muratore has been appointed as Chief Executive Officer of
SunGard's Financial Systems Group. Mr. Muratore's former position, Chief
Executive Officer of SunGard's Computer Services Group, has been filled by
Bruce H. Battjer. Since joining the company in 1990, Mr. Battjer, age 44,
has served in various executive positions in SunGard's Recovery Services
Group, most recently as President of SunGard Planning Solutions.
SunGard's business is computer service and application software. The
