EXHIBIT 99.1

Monett, MO. October 29, 2007- 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 2008 results with a 16% increase in revenue, an increase of 10% in gross profit which resulted in a 10% rise in net income over the first quarter of fiscal 2007.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2007, the company generated total revenue of $175.3 million, compared to $150.6 million in the same quarter a year ago. Gross profit increased to $69.5 million compared to $63.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2007. Net income totaled $23.5 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, compared to $21.4 million, or $0.23 per diluted share in the same quarter a year ago.

According to Jack Prim, CEO, "We are pleased with our overall performance in the quarter which saw solid organic revenue growth of over 15% and continued strong growth in the recurring revenue components of our support and services offerings. Our banking National User Group meeting in Dallas last week had attendance of 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 future sales, particularly in the second half of the fiscal year."

"During the first fiscal quarter of 2008, we continued to experience the growing demand for our outsourcing 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. "The combination of the continuing shift towards outsourced system and processing delivery and some deal slippage in the banking segment led to license fee revenue that was down significantly in the quarter compared to the prior year. However this was more than offset by 20% growth in Support and Service and Hardware revenue compared to the prior year quarter."

Cost of sales for the first quarter increased 21%, from $87.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2006 to $105.8 million for the same period in the current fiscal year. Gross profit in the current year first quarter increased 10% to $69.5 million, a 40% margin, compared to $63.3 million, a 42% margin last year. Cost of sales increased primarily due to additional labor costs, product costs and processing fees.

Gross margin on license revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2008 was 94% compared to 96% a year ago for the same period and is primarily due to an increase in the amount of third party software delivered during the quarter. Support and service gross margins were 37% during both periods. Hardware gross margins were lower for the first quarter at 26% compared to 30% for the same quarter last year primarily due to the volume, sales mix of hardware sold, and vendor rebates.

Operating expenses increased 11% to $33.7 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2008 compared to $30.4 million for the same quarter a year ago primarily due to increased employee-related expenses. Selling and marketing expenses rose 17% in the first quarter to $14.0 million from $12.0 million in the prior year's quarter. Selling and marketing expenses were 8% of revenue for both years. Research and development expenses increased 17% to $10.0 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2008, from $8.5 million for the same quarter of fiscal 2007. Research and development expenses remained at 6% of revenue for both periods. General and administrative costs decreased 1% to $9.8 million, or 6% of revenue, in the first quarter of fiscal year 2008, from $9.9 million or 7% of revenue for the same quarter a year ago.

Operating income grew 9% to $35.8 million, or 20% of revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2008, compared to $32.9 million, or 22% of revenue, a year ago. Provision for income taxes in the first quarter of fiscal 2008 was 36.5% compared to 37.5% in the same period a year ago. As of the first quarter of fiscal 2007, the Research and Experimentation Credit had expired and was not considered in determining the provision for income taxes for that period. The Credit was subsequently renewed and has been considered for the current quarter. First quarter net income totaled $23.5 million, or $0.26 per diluted share, compared to $21.4 million, or $0.23 per diluted share in the first quarter of fiscal 2007.

For the first quarter of 2008, the bank systems and services segment revenue increased 16% to $144.5 million, with a gross margin of 39% from $124.7 million in revenue with a gross margin of 43% in the first quarter in fiscal 2007. The credit union systems and services segment revenue increased 19% to $30.8 million with a gross margin of 40% for the first quarter of 2008 from revenue of $25.9 million with gross margin of 35% in the same quarter a year ago. The increase in gross margin for the credit union segment is due to an increase in license revenue from the prior year's quarter. License revenue has substantially higher margins than other revenue components. "The credit union segment continued with the sales momentum that we saw in the previous sequential quarter or the fourth quarter of last fiscal year. We had some very nice competitive wins during both quarters and these are typically in-house system sales. The sales forecasts continue to look solid for all of our brands: Jack Henry Banking, Symitar and ProfitStars," stated Kevin Williams, CFO.

Cash and cash equivalents increased to $54.5 million from $49.8 million compared to September 30, 2006. During the first quarter, the revolving debt facility of $70.0 million was paid in full with cash from operations. Trade receivables increased $13.4 million, or 11% to $132.2 million compared to September 30, 2006 at $118.8 million. The increase is commensurate with increases in revenue.

Deferred revenue increased 13% to $175.6 million at September 30, 2007 compared to a year ago. Stockholders' equity grew 7% to $616.6 million at September 30, 2007, from $575.8 million at September 30, 2006.

Cash provided by operations totaled $69.1 million in the current quarter compared to $61.5 million during last year's quarter. The following table summarizes net cash (in thousands) from operating activities:

Net cash used in investing activities in the current quarter was $30.7 million and primarily included payments for acquisitions of $17.4 million, capital expenditures of $9.7 million and capitalized software development of $5.7 million.

Cash used was offset by proceeds of $8.4 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 2007, cash used in financing activities was $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.
