According to Jack Prim, CEO, “We continue to see an improved spending environment, favorably influenced by improving financial institution balance sheets and fee income that has been less negatively impacted than was expected a year ago. In addition to the solid financial performance in the quarter our biennial employee engagement survey showed solid gains across the board, which we believe bodes well for our Customers and our Shareholders.”

Operating Results
“We continue to have a very strong fiscal 2012 with record revenue, record gross profit and net income for the third quarter compared to any fiscal year and record all time backlog,” stated Tony Wormington, President. “Our Support and Services line of revenue continues to grow and contribute nicely, which represents 88% of our total revenue. Within this line we continue to see strong growth in all of our electronic payment offerings with 11% growth in revenue for both the quarter and year to date compared to the same periods last year. Overall our Support and Services revenue grew 8% for the quarter compared to a year ago and has grown 6% year to date.”

For the nine months ended March 31, 2012 gross margin on license was 89% compared to 88% in the same period a year ago.

Hardware gross margins also increased to 28% for the nine month period this fiscal year, from 26% in the nine month period last fiscal year.
Operating expenses increased 5% in the third quarter of fiscal 2012 compared to the same quarter a year ago primarily due to increased selling and marketing expenses.

For the nine months ending March 31, 2012, operating expenses increased 2% to $140.1 million, compared to $136.9 million for the same period a year ago, primarily due to increased commission expenses in line with increased revenue.

Third quarter net income totaled $36.7 million, or $0.42 per diluted share, compared to $33.1 million, or $0.38 per diluted share in the third quarter of fiscal 2011.
Operating income increased 11% to $175.1 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2012 compared to $158.3 million for the same period a year ago.

For the third quarter of 2012, the bank systems and services segment revenue increased 6% to $194.7 million from $183.5 million in the same quarter last year.

According to Kevin Williams, CFO, the reported results for the quarter were in line with our internal budget and forecasts, as total revenue continues to be within 1%. However, our margins continue to be slightly ahead of budget as our Managers and Associates continue to do an outstanding job of focusing on revenue growth while at the same time controlling our overall costs.
