According to Jack Prim, CEO, "We are pleased to announce a solid performance in a market that continues to send mixed signals.  With continued improvement in the general economy as the year progresses we hope to see a slowdown in the number of bank failures and a more favorable environment for financial institution spending, resulting in continued improvements in revenue growth."

"License revenue was up 29% with 5% organic growth, support and services revenue grew 20% with 4% organic growth and hardware increased 8% compared to the prior year with 3% organic growth for the quarter compared to last year. Total revenue grew 19% compared to last year with 4% organic growth. The acquisitions that we announced during our second fiscal quarter obviously had a solid contribution during the quarter and continue to perform as projected," stated Tony Wormington, President. "From this increased revenue we experienced an increase in gross profit of 23% for the quarter compared to the prior year with 8% organic growth, this being leveraged from the 4% organic revenue growth. Our managers and all of our associates continue to focus on improving margins through the control of costs which is reflected in the current quarter results."
