  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).
