Tyler Technologies Reports Earnings For Second Quarter 2015

Quarterly net income rises 28 percent as revenues grow 18 percent

PLANO, Texas – July 22, 2015 – Tyler Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: TYL) today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2015.

Second Quarter 2015 Financial Highlights:

 

    Total revenue was $146.3 million, up 17.6 percent from $124.4 million for the second quarter of 2014. Organic growth was 16.8 percent.

 

    Recurring revenue from maintenance and subscriptions was $86.4 million, an increase of 18.6 percent compared to the second quarter of 2014, and comprised 59.1 percent of second quarter 2015 revenue.

 

    Royalty revenue from Microsoft Dynamics® AX, which is included in software licenses and royalties, was $1.2 million, up 111.3 percent compared to $576,000 for the second quarter of 2014.

 

    Operating income was $29.6 million, an increase of 25.3 percent from $23.6 million for the second quarter of 2014.

 

    Net income was $18.8 million, or $0.52 per diluted share, up 27.8 percent compared to $14.7 million, or $0.42 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2014.

 

    Cash flow from operations was $16.9 million, up 37.8 percent compared to $12.3 million for the second quarter of 2014.

 

    Non-GAAP operating income was $36.0 million, up 25.3 percent from $28.7 million for the second quarter of 2014.

 

    Adjusted EBITDA was $38.2 million, up 24.2 percent compared to $30.7 million for the second quarter of 2014.

 

    Non-GAAP net income was $23.3 million, or $0.65 per diluted share, up 26.8 percent compared to $18.4 million, or $0.52 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2014.

 

    Total backlog was $723.0 million, up 10.4 percent from $654.7 million at June 30, 2014. Software-related backlog (excluding appraisal services) was $672.4 million, an increase of 8.6 percent compared to $619.1 million at June 30, 2014.

“Tyler Technologies again achieved outstanding results in the second quarter, exceeding our expectations for both revenues and earnings,” said John S. Marr Jr., Tyler’s president and chief executive officer. “All of our major revenue lines grew by more than 14 percent, with software licenses and royalties, subscriptions, and appraisal services revenues each growing more than 20 percent. As expected, we experienced pressure on gross margins associated with onboarding of new professional services and development staff to support our growing backlog, including an increase in total headcount of 212 in the first half of 2015. Nonetheless, we expanded our operating margin and non-GAAP operating margin by 120 and 150 basis points, respectively, as we continue to gain leverage in our SG&A and R&D expenses.

“As we’ve previously discussed, this quarter presented a very difficult bookings comparison, as the second quarter of 2014 included approximately $64 million of new contracts in California for our

Odyssey® court case management solution. Lumpy bookings, especially with respect to large contracts, are simply a characteristic of our business. However, excluding the California Odyssey signings in last year’s second quarter, bookings rose 3 percent this quarter and 12 percent on a trailing 12 month basis.

“Tyler’s backlog reached a new high of $723 million at June 30. The new business pipeline remains active and our competitive position in the marketplace continues to be very strong. With our robust performance for the first half of the year and current outlook for the remainder of 2015, we have again raised our earnings guidance for the full year.”

Guidance for 2015

As of July 22, 2015, Tyler Technologies is providing the following guidance for the full year 2015:

 

    Total revenues are expected to be in the range of $575 million to $581 million.

    Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share are expected to be approximately $2.50 to $2.58.

 

    Pretax non-cash, share-based compensation expense is expected to be approximately $20.0 million to $20.5 million.

    Capital expenditures are expected to be between $13.5 million and $14.5 million, and total depreciation and amortization expense is expected to be between $15.5 million and $16.0 million, including approximately $6.7 million of amortization of acquisition intangibles.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Tyler Technologies has provided in this press release financial measures that have not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and are therefore considered non-GAAP financial measures. This information includes non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP earnings per diluted share, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA. We use these non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing our financial results and believe they are useful to investors, as a supplement to GAAP measures, in evaluating Tyler’s ongoing operational performance. Tyler believes the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing our financial results with other companies in our industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP financial measures discussed above exclude share-based compensation expense, employer portion of payroll taxes on employee stock transactions, and expenses associated with amortization of intangibles arising from business combinations. We use these measures and believe they are useful to investors because they provide additional insight in comparing results from period to period.

Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP measures used by Tyler Technologies may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, which has been provided in the financial statement tables included below in this press release.

Forward-looking Statements

This document contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are not historical in nature and typically address future or anticipated events, trends, expectations or beliefs with respect to our financial condition, results of operations or business. Forward-looking statements often contain words such as “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “foresees,” “forecasts,” “estimates,” “plans,” “intends,” “continues,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “projects,” “might,” “could” or other similar words or phrases. Similarly, statements that describe our business strategy, outlook, objectives, plans, intentions or goals also are forward-looking statements. We believe there is a reasonable basis for our forward-looking statements, but they are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties and actual results could differ materially from the expectations and beliefs reflected in the forward-looking statements. We presently consider the following to be among the important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations and beliefs: (1) changes in the budgets or regulatory environments of our

customers, primarily local and state governments, that could negatively impact information technology spending; (2) our ability to protect client information from security breaches and provide uninterrupted operations of data centers; (3) material portions of our business require the Internet infrastructure to be adequately maintained; (4) our ability to achieve our financial forecasts due to various factors, including project delays by our customers, reductions in transaction size, fewer transactions, delays in delivery of new products or releases or a decline in our renewal rates for service agreements; (5) general economic, political and market conditions; (6) technological and market risks associated with the development of new products or services or of new versions of existing or acquired products or services; (7) our ability to achieve growth or operational synergies through the integration of acquired businesses, while avoiding unanticipated costs and disruptions to existing operations; (8) competition in the industry in which we conduct business and the impact of competition on pricing, customer retention and pressure for new products or services; (9) the ability to attract and retain qualified personnel and dealing with the loss or retirement of key members of management or other key personnel; and (10) costs of compliance and any failure to comply with government and stock exchange regulations. A detailed discussion of these factors and other risks that affect our business are described in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the detailed “Risk Factors” contained in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K. We expressly disclaim any obligation to publicly update or revise our forward-looking statements.
