JACK HENRY & ASSOCIATES FISCAL 2004 NET INCOME INCREASES 26%
------------------------------------------------------------
Monett, MO, July 27, 2004 - Jack Henry & Associates, Inc. (Nasdaq: JKHY), a
leading provider of integrated technology solutions that performs data
processing for financial institutions, today reported strong results with
revenues rising 15% for the fourth quarter and 16% for the fiscal year ended
June 30, 2004. Gross profit and margins continue to improve and have
contributed to a 25% increase in net income for the fourth quarter and a 26%
increase in net income for fiscal year 2004.
Net income totaled $17.6 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, while revenues
increased 15% to $126.0 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004. A
year ago, the fourth quarter net income was $14.1 million, or $0.16 per
diluted share on revenues of $109.2 million. For fiscal year 2004, net
income increased 26% to $62.3 million, or $0.68 per diluted share, compared
to $49.4 million or $0.55 per diluted share for the fiscal year ended June
2003. Revenues increased 16% to $467.4 million for fiscal year 2004
compared to $404.6 million for fiscal 2003.
Fiscal 2004 Highlights
"Jack Henry had an exceptional year in fiscal 2004, posting record revenues,
earnings and operating cash flow," said Michael E. Henry, Chairman. "The
16% increase in revenue was leveraged to a 26% increase in net income
primarily due to the efforts of our employees to control costs, utilization
of existing infrastructure and continuing to improve processes and
procedures. I am very proud of our employees and of our company's position
for future success."
"Contributing to the strong fiscal year was an increase of 30% in license
revenue compared to last year and continued growth in our support and
services revenue which increased 20% this year and primarily is recurring
revenue. Our credit union segment had a very impressive year with a 39%
increase in revenue while expanding gross margins from 30% a year-ago to 39%
this year," said Jack F. Prim, CEO. "We expect this growth to continue as
we expand our geographic footprint for outsourcing, complete the integration
of our recent acquisitions and continue to see improvements from the
realignment of our sales force a year ago."
Operating Results
License revenue increased 83% to $21.9 million, or 17% of fourth quarter
revenues, compared to $12.0 million, or 11% of fourth quarter revenues a
year ago. Growth of in-house support fees, outsourcing, and ATM/Debit card
and switch fees contributed to the 20% increase in support and service
revenue. Support and service revenues grew to $83.7 million, or 66% of
fourth quarter revenues, compared to $69.8 million, or 64% of last year's
fourth quarter revenues. Hardware sales were off 26%, to $20.5 million in
the fourth quarter from $27.5 million in the prior year's quarter. For
fiscal 2004, license revenue increased 30% to $62.6 million or 13% of
revenue from $48.3 million or 12% of revenue for fiscal 2003. Support and
service revenues grew to $311.3 million from $260.5 million, reflecting 20%
growth. Support and service revenue represented 67% of revenue in fiscal
2004, while it was 64% of revenue in fiscal 2003. Hardware for the fiscal
year 2004 decreased 2% from $95.9 million or 24% of revenue for fiscal year
2003 to $93.5 million or 20% of revenue for fiscal year 2004.
Cost of sales for the fourth quarter increased 10%, from $66.2 million for
the three months ended June 30, 2003 to $72.7 million for the same period
ended June 30, 2004. Fourth quarter gross profit increased 24% to $53.3
million, producing a gross margin of 42%, compared to $43.0 million with a
gross margin of 39% in last year's final quarter. For fiscal year 2004,
cost of sales rose 11% to $279.4 million from $251.3 million for fiscal
2003. Gross profit increased 23% to $188.0 million with a gross margin of
40%, compared to $153.3 million with a gross margin of 38% for the fiscal
year ended 2003. Cost of sales increased mainly due to growth in our
headcount relating to the support and service revenues, third party pass-
through expenses and depreciation expense.
Gross margins on license revenue for the current fourth quarter and fiscal
year remained consistent at 89% and 92%, respectively. Support and service
gross margins improved slightly to 34% from 33% for the fourth quarter and
to 33% from 32% for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2004. Hardware gross
margins were lower for the fourth quarter at 25% compared to 33% for the
same quarter last year primarily due to volume and sales mix of hardware and
a decrease in rebates received on the specific hardware sold. For both
fiscal years, the hardware margin remained flat at 28%.
For the fourth quarter of 2004, the bank systems and services segment
revenue increased 10% to $99.6 million from $90.3 million. The related
gross margin for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2004 increased to 41% from 40%
a year ago. The credit union systems and services segment revenue increased
40% to $26.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2004 from $18.9 million
in the same period a year ago. The related gross margin increased
substantially to 47% for the current fourth quarter from 36% for the prior
year's fourth quarter.
For the year ended June 30, 2004, revenue in the bank systems and services
segment increased 11% to $382.1 million from $343.1 million. The associated
gross margin for this segment increased to 40% from 39% in the same period
last year. For fiscal 2004, revenue in the credit union systems and
services segment increased 39% to $85.3 million from $61.5 million. Gross
margin for the credit union system and services segment increased to 39%
from 30% for fiscal year 2003. "The credit union segment gross margin
continues to improve due to additional products and service being sold in
the credit union segment which carries higher margins, continued leverage
of existing resources, improved processes and procedures and overall
controlling of costs," said Kevin D. Williams, CFO.
Operating expenses increased 16% for the fourth quarter and 17% for fiscal
2004. Selling and marketing expense rose 22% in the fourth quarter and 17%
for the fiscal year, relatively in line with revenue growth. The largest
increase was in the research and development area, with a 41% increase for
the fourth quarter and a 49% increase for the fiscal year 2004. This is due
to ongoing development of enhancements to existing products for financial
institutions for both segments of our business. In fiscal 2003, a large
percentage of employee related expenses were capitalized as part of major
ongoing development projects, which have since been completed. General and
administrative costs decreased 3% in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2004,
while expenses for the fiscal year remained flat, primarily due to cost
control measures throughout the year.
Operating income increased 32% to $29.2 million, or 23% of fourth quarter
revenues, compared to $22.1 million, or 20% of revenues in the fourth
quarter of fiscal 2003. For fiscal year 2004, operating income grew 28% to
$98.8 million, or 21% of annual revenues, compared to $77.3 million, or 19%
of annual revenues for fiscal 2003. Provision for income taxes was
increased in the fourth quarter to adjust the annual rate to 37.5% from
36.5% for the fiscal year due to changes in the effective state tax
provision. Fourth quarter net income totaled $17.6 million, or $0.19 per
diluted share, compared to $14.1 million or $0.16 per diluted share in the
fourth quarter of fiscal 2003. Fiscal 2004 net income grew 26% to $62.3
million, or $0.68 per share, compared to $49.4 million, or $0.55 per share
for fiscal year 2003.
Cash Flow, Balance Sheet and Backlog Review
Cash, cash equivalents, and investments increased $21.7 million to $54.8
million compared to June 30, 2003. Trade receivables which reflect our
annual in-house maintenance billings as of each year end increased $18.9
million to $169.9 million compared to a year ago. Deferred revenue
increased 10% to $145.0 million at June 30, 2004 compared to a year ago.
There continues to be no debt on the balance sheet as of June 30, 2004.
Stockholders' equity grew 21% to $442.9 million at June 30, 2004, from
$365.2 million at June 30, 2003.
Cash flow from operations increased to $112.8 million for fiscal year 2004
from $98.9 million for fiscal 2003. The primary reason for the $13.9
million increase is the $12.9 million increase in net income. Depreciation
and amortization expenses were $33.5 million for the fiscal year compared to
$30.2 million in the last year. Net cash used in investing activities was
$100.0 million and included capital expenditures of $49.1 million year-to-
date compared to $46.0 million in the respective period a year ago. Payment
for acquisitions used cash flows from operations of $48.3 million, compared
to $6.5 million in fiscal year 2003. Net cash provided by financing
activities was $9.0 million and included proceeds of $21.7 million this year
compared to $3.5 million a year ago from the exercise of stock options
offset by dividends paid of $13.4 million this year compared to $12.3
million last year. In fiscal year 2003, we purchased treasury stock of
$18.2 million.
Backlog, which is a measure of future business and revenue, was up 4% from
year-ago levels, and up 2% from the prior quarter at $191.3 million ($67.2
million in-house and $124.1 million outsourcing) at June 30, 2004. Backlog
at March 31, 2004, was $187.9 million ($66.4 million in-house and $121.5
million outsourcing), and at June 30, 2003, it was $183.1 million ($69.5
million in-house and $113.7 million outsourcing).
