 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


  JACK HENRY & ASSOCIATES EXPANDS OFFERINGS BY ADDING CALL REPORTER SOFTWARE
  --------------------------------------------------------------------------

 MONETT, MO. and AUSTIN, TX, June 8, 2004  -- Jack Henry & Associates, Inc.
 (Nasdaq: JKHY), a leading provider of integrated technology solutions that
 perform data processing for financial institutions, today announced that
 it has signed agreements to purchase specific assets including a suite of
 regulatory reporting products for the banking industry from Alex eSolutions,
 Inc. The transaction was closed with an effective date of June 1, 2004; the
 terms were not disclosed.

 Two products, more commonly known to existing clients as the Sheshunoff Call
 Report and Sheshunoff Y-9, are among the suite of products acquired by Jack
 Henry.  "Each of the products in the suite assists banks to effectively and
 efficiently fulfill regulatory reporting requirements, while streamlining
 the process.  Every one of our core customers needs these products," stated
 Michael E. Henry, Chairman, and CEO of Jack Henry.  "Included in this
 transaction are over 3,000 current customers, which will represent either
 a new customer or another product we now offer to our existing customers."

 "These products bring another layer of depth to our existing offerings and
 allow us to expand the Jack Henry brand beyond our current core customer
 base," said Jack Prim, President of Jack Henry. As of September 2004, the
 FDIC will require all transmissions of bank call reports be transmitted
 electronically in an XBRL format. "Being in a position to provide compliant
 solutions for banks to satisfy this requirement is very important to us.  We
 are excited about our position in the market to meet that deadline and offer
 compliant solutions to the Call Report Modernization initiative," added
 Prim.

 "Financially, the acquisition should be slightly accretive immediately and
 improve over time." stated Kevin D. Williams, Chief Financial Officer of
 Jack Henry.  "Our history has been to continue operations in the same city
 where they existed at the time of an acquisition.  Continuing with that same
 approach the daily operations will remain in Austin, TX, and will be woven
 into our nation-wide internal communication network, which we believe will
 minimize any disruption in operations, and avoid what we consider to be
 unnecessary expenditures."
