Jack Henry & Associates, Inc. Reports Second Quarter Fiscal 2019 Results

MONETT, Mo., Feb. 5, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Jack Henry & Associates, Inc. (NASDAQ: JKHY), a leading provider of technology solutions and payment processing services primarily for the financial services industry, today announced results for the second quarter of fiscal 2019.

The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and related amendments, collectively referred to as ASC Topic 606, on July 1, 2018. The prior year numbers presented below have been re-cast as part of our full retrospective adoption of the new standard.

GAAP Results for the Quarter

Revenue for the quarter ended December 31, 2018 increased to $386.3 million, an 8% improvement over the second quarter of fiscal 2018.  Operating income increased 4% to $88.2 million. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act ("TCJA") enacted December 22, 2017 resulted in a large credit to the provision for income taxes in fiscal 2018, which contributed to the large decrease in net income of 58% compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2018. Net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2019 was $68.1 million, or $0.88 per diluted share.

For the six months ended December 31, 2018, revenue increased to $778.8 million, an 8% increase compared to the six months ended December 31, 2017.  Operating income increased 5% over the prior year-to-date period to $191.4 million. Net income totaled $151.6 million, or $1.96 per diluted share, a decrease of 34% compared to the six months ended December 31, 2017, again due mainly to the effects of the TCJA on the prior year period.

Non-GAAP Results for the Quarter

On an adjusted basis for the quarter ended December 31, 2018, revenue increased 9% compared to the prior year quarter to $379.4 million. Operating income increased 12% to $84.9 million.

For the six months ended December 31, 2018, non-GAAP adjusted revenue increased 9% compared to the six months ended December 31, 2018 to $764.1 million, and operating income increased 14% to $183.0 million.

According to David Foss, President and CEO, "We are pleased to report another strong quarter of revenue and operating income growth. Our sales organization had another solid quarter with all brands again exceeding quota as demand for our solutions remains high.  We contracted another thirteen new core customers during the quarter, with all of them selecting our outsourcing model.  The outstanding technology and service delivered by our teams continues to be recognized by new and existing clients."

Operating Results

Revenue, operating expenses, operating income, and net income for the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2018, as compared to the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2017, were as follows:

  • The increased revenue in the services and support line for the second quarter of fiscal 2019 was mainly driven by growth in our 'outsourcing and cloud' revenue, partially due to the Ensenta acquisition, and increased 'in-house support' revenue. The increase in processing revenue was also partially due to Ensenta, although all components of processing revenue increased even after excluding Ensenta revenue. Deconversion fees, which are included within services and support, decreased $3.1 million compared to the second quarter of the prior year. Excluding deconversion fees from both periods, and revenue from fiscal 2019 acquisitions, total revenue increased 9% for the second quarter of fiscal 2019 compared to the same quarter of fiscal 2018.
  • For the six months ended December 31, 2018, deconversion fees decreased $6.0 million compared to the prior year-to-date period. Excluding deconversion fees from both periods and revenue from fiscal 2019 acquisitions, total revenue increased 9%. All components of processing revenue increased. The increase in Services & Support was primarily driven by increased 'outsourcing and cloud' revenue, partially due to Ensenta, as well as increased 'in-house support' revenue, primarily from higher software usage revenue resulting partially from the addition of new customers.
  • For the second quarter of fiscal 2019, core segment revenue increased 5% to $129.7 million from $123.3 million in the same period a year ago. Payments segment revenue increased 14% to $138.0 million, from $121.4 million in the same quarter last year. Revenue from the complementary segment increased 7% to $103.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 from $96.7 million in the same period of fiscal 2018. Revenue in the corporate and other segment decreased 4% to $15.3 million, compared to $15.9 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2018.
  • For the six months ended December 31, 2018, revenue in the core segment increased 7% to $267.3 million, compared to $250.6 million a year ago. Payments segment revenue increased 11% to $272.2 million, from $244.3 million for the first six months of fiscal 2018. Complementary segment revenue increased 10% to $210.6 million, up from $191.7 million a year ago.

  • Cost of revenue increased 10% for the second quarter of fiscal 2019 compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2018 and increased 1% as a percentage of revenue. The increased costs were primarily due to increased headcount driving increased salaries and benefits; higher direct costs of product, including spending related to our ongoing project to expand our credit and debit card platform; and increased amortization expense. Excluding costs related to deconversions and bonuses provided by the Company in response to the lower tax rate resulting from the TCJA, cost of revenue increased 9%.
  • For the six months ended December 31, 2018, cost of revenue increased 9% compared to the equivalent period of the prior year but remained a consistent percentage of revenue. The increased costs were primarily due to the same factors discussed above. Excluding costs related to deconversions and bonuses provided by the Company in response to the lower tax rate resulting from the TCJA, cost of revenue increased 8%.
  • Research and development expense increased for both the second quarter and year-to-date period mainly due to increased salary and personnel costs resulting from increased headcount and the acquisition of Ensenta, but remained consistent with the prior year second quarter and year-to-date period as a percentage of total revenue.
  • Selling, general, and administrative expenses for both the second quarter and year-to-date period of fiscal 2019 increased mainly due to increased commissions, salaries, and benefits. Selling, general, and administrative expense remained a consistent percentage of revenue in both the quarter and fiscal year-to-date periods.
  • There were no sales of businesses in fiscal 2019. For the first six months of fiscal 2018, gains on disposals of businesses totaled $1.9 million, due to the ATM Manager gain of $0.2 million in the second quarter, and the first quarter sale of our jhaDirect product line.
  • For the second quarter of fiscal 2019, operating income increased 4% to $88.2 million, or 23% of revenue, compared to $84.8 million, or 24% of revenue in the second quarter of fiscal 2018. For the year-to-date period, operating income increased 5% to $191.4 million, or 25% of revenue, compared to operating income of $181.8 million, also 25% of revenue, for the six months ended December 31, 2017.

Net Income

Net income for the second quarter ended December 31, 2018 was significantly impacted in the prior year by the TCJA and the related re-measurement of net deferred tax liabilities.

  • Provision for income taxes increased in the second quarter, with an effective tax rate at 22.9% of income before income taxes, compared to (90.4)% for the same quarter of the prior year. For the six months ended December 31, 2018, provision for income taxes increased, with an effective tax rate at 20.9% of income before income taxes, compared to (25.5)% for the same period last year. The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily the result of the TCJA enacted in the prior fiscal year on December 22, 2017, and the related re-measurement of net deferred tax liabilities. The increase is partially offset by the reduced U.S. federal corporate tax rate of 21% effective for the current fiscal year and increased excess tax benefits recognized during fiscal 2019.

According to Kevin Williams, CFO, "Our operating margins are showing the headwinds created by the double costs related to the migration of our new electronic payments platform and the new pay for performance bonus program that we rolled out at the beginning of the year which is utilizing a portion of the savings from the TCJA. Deconversion fees were down again this quarter and year-to-date compared to last year, which is a positive for us as we keep our customers, but it creates a tough comp on a GAAP basis, which is why we think it is important to show operations excluding this impact on a Non-GAAP basis. It appears that deconversion fees will be down significantly for the entire fiscal year compared to last year."

Non-GAAP Impact of Effects of Deconversion Fees, Acquisitions, Gains on Divestitures, and New Bonus Program

The table below shows our revenue and operating income (in thousands) for the second quarter and six months ended December 31, 2018 compared to the prior year periods, excluding the impacts of deconversion fees, fiscal 2019 acquisitions, gain on divestitures, and expenses related to a bonus program enacted by the Company in fiscal 2019 in response to the TCJA.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) is the term used to refer to the standard framework of guidelines for financial accounting in the United States.  GAAP includes the standards, conventions, and rules accountants follow in recording and summarizing transactions in the preparation of financial statements.  In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with GAAP, we have provided certain non-GAAP financial measures.

These non-GAAP measures include adjusted revenue and operating income.

We believe these non-GAAP measures help investors better understand the underlying fundamentals and true operations of our business.  The non-GAAP revenue and operating income presented eliminate items management believes are not indicative of the Company's operating performance.  Revenue increase/ decrease adjusts for one-time deconversion fees, contributions of current fiscal year acquisitions, gain or loss on divestitures, and the impact of the new bonus program put in place with the positive impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, giving investors further insight into our performance.  For these reasons, management also uses these non-GAAP measures in its assessment and management of the Company's performance.

Any non-GAAP measures should be considered in context with the GAAP financial presentation and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP measures.  Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to related GAAP measures are included.

Quarterly Conference Call

The company will hold a conference call on February 6, 2019; at 7:45 a.m. Central Time and investors are invited to listen at www.jackhenry.com.
