"We built on the momentum from our strong first quarter performance to again deliver exceptional results for
the second quarter," said Lynn Moore, Tyler's president and chief executive officer. "SaaS revenues grew
23.2%, and SaaS arrangements comprised 97% of our new software contract value, as clients across all
segments of the public sector increasingly embrace the cloud. Transaction revenues outperformed our plan,
primarily due to higher transaction volumes, including e-filing and new payment services. In addition,
operating margins exceeded our expectations and benefited from improved professional services margins, as
well as continued progress around key initiatives associated with our cloud transition.
"Our new business pipeline remains at elevated levels, reflecting a robust market environment, growing cross-
sell opportunities, and continued solid execution by our sales organization. We're pleased with our progress
under each of the pillars supporting our near and long-term growth objectives. Our outlook for the remainder
of 2024 is positive, and we have revised our full-year guidance accordingly," concluded Moore.

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, adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow, and free cash flow margin. 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 because they provide
additional insight in comparing results from period to period. 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, expenses associated
with amortization of intangibles arising from business combinations, acquisition-related expenses, and lease
restructuring costs and other. Annualized recurring revenues (ARR) is calculated by annualizing the current
quarter's recurring revenues from maintenance and subscriptions.
Tyler currently uses a non-GAAP tax rate of 22.0%. This rate is based on Tyler's estimated annual GAAP
income tax rate forecast, adjusted to account for items excluded from GAAP income in calculating Tyler's
non-GAAP income, as well as significant non-recurring tax adjustments. The non-GAAP tax rate used in
future periods will be reviewed periodically to determine whether it remains appropriate in consideration of
factors including Tyler's periodic annual effective tax rate calculated in accordance with GAAP, changes
resulting from tax legislation, changes in the geographic mix of revenues and expenses, and other factors
deemed significant. Due to differences in tax treatment of items excluded from non-GAAP earnings, as well
as the methodology applied to Tyler's estimated annual tax rate as described above, the estimated tax rate on
non-GAAP income may differ from the GAAP tax rate and from Tyler's actual tax liabilities.
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

for Second Quarter 2024
July 24, 2024
Page 5
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 clients, primarily local and state governments, that could
negatively impact information technology spending; (2) disruption to our business and harm to our
competitive position resulting from cyber-attacks, security vulnerabilities and software updates; (3) our ability
to protect client information from security breaches and provide uninterrupted operations of data centers; (4)
our ability to achieve growth or operational synergies through the integration of acquired businesses, while
avoiding unanticipated costs and disruptions to existing operations; (5) material portions of our business
require the Internet infrastructure to be adequately maintained; (6) our ability to achieve our financial
forecasts due to various factors, including project delays by our clients, reductions in transaction size, fewer
transactions, delays in delivery of new products or releases or a decline in our renewal rates for service
agreements; (7) general economic, political and market conditions, including continued inflation and rising
interest rates; (8) technological and market risks associated with the development of new products or services
or of new versions of existing or acquired products or services; (9) competition in the industry in which we
conduct business and the impact of competition on pricing, client retention and pressure for new products or
services; (10) the ability to attract and retain qualified personnel and dealing with rising labor costs, and the
loss or retirement of key members of management or other key personnel; and (11) costs of compliance and
any failure to comply with government and stock exchange regulations. 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 and quarterly report on
Form 10-Q. We expressly disclaim any obligation to publicly update or revise our forward-looking
statements.

“During 2023, we excelled on many fronts executing our four-pronged growth strategy to drive predictable, higher recurring revenues and long-term margin expansion. We leveraged our unmatched installed base, broad suite of offerings, and strong relationships across local, state, and federal agencies to expand our cross-sell and upsell opportunities. We continued to take a balanced and opportunistic approach with respect to capital allocation and closed four strategic acquisitions, adding AI technology that can be leveraged across Tyler's product portfolio. We further strengthened our balance sheet and aggressively reduced our term debt with fourth quarter repayments of $90 million. For the full year, we reduced debt by $345 million, bringing our net leverage at year-end to under one times proforma EBITDA.
“We enter 2024 with tremendous optimism and confidence in the year ahead and beyond as we execute our strategy supporting our Tyler 2030 vision. The public sector market remains very healthy, as evidenced by our elevated levels of RFP and sales demonstration activity. We are on track with key initiatives around our cloud transition, including the migration of on-premises clients to the cloud and the planned exit from our proprietary data centers, and we expect to return to a trajectory of operating margin expansion in 2024,” concluded Moore.

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, adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow, and free cash flow margin. 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 because they provide additional insight in comparing results from period to period. 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, expenses associated with amortization of intangibles arising from business combinations, acquisition-related expenses, and lease restructuring costs and other. Annualized recurring revenue (ARR) is calculated by annualizing the current quarter's recurring revenues from subscriptions and maintenance.
Tyler currently uses a non-GAAP tax rate of 22.0%. This rate is based on Tyler's estimated annual GAAP income tax rate forecast, adjusted to account for items excluded from GAAP income in calculating Tyler's non-GAAP income, as well as significant non-recurring tax adjustments. The non-GAAP tax rate used in future periods will be reviewed periodically to determine whether it remains appropriate in consideration of factors including Tyler's periodic annual effective tax rate calculated in accordance with GAAP, changes resulting from tax legislation, changes in the geographic mix of revenues and expenses, and other factors deemed significant. Due to differences in tax treatment of items excluded from non-GAAP earnings, as well as the methodology applied to Tyler's estimated annual tax rate as described above, the estimated tax rate on non-GAAP income may differ from the GAAP tax rate and from Tyler's actual tax liabilities.
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.

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 clients, primarily local and state governments, that could negatively impact information technology spending; (2) disruption to our business and harm to our competitive position resulting from cyber-attacks and security vulnerabilities; (3) our ability to protect client information from security breaches and provide uninterrupted operations of data centers; (4) our ability to achieve growth or operational synergies through the integration of acquired businesses, while avoiding unanticipated costs and disruptions to existing operations; (5) material portions of our business require the Internet infrastructure to be adequately maintained; (6) our ability to achieve our financial forecasts due to various factors, including project delays by our clients, reductions in transaction size, fewer transactions, delays in delivery of new products or releases or a decline in our renewal rates for service agreements; (7) general economic, political and market conditions, including continued inflation and rising interest rates; (8) technological and market risks associated with the development of new products or services or of new versions of existing or acquired products or services; (9) competition in the industry in which we conduct business and the impact of competition on pricing, client retention and pressure for new products or services; (10) 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 (11) costs of compliance and any failure to comply with government and stock exchange regulations.

"During 2022, we achieved notable milestones toward several key strategic initiatives. We integrated our payments teams and launched a significant go-to-market strategy for payments. We also leveraged our strong relationships across state and local agencies to expand our cross-sell opportunities. We made meaningful progress in our cloud journey through continued investment in cloud optimization and through a move to cloud-only deployment for many of our core solutions. Overall, the year was highlighted by significant wins, highly successful upsell efforts, and state enterprise renewals and expansions.
"Throughout the year, we demonstrated a balanced yet opportunistic approach across our business and with respect to capital allocation. While our bar is high for acquisitions, we maintain a strategic lens toward M&A opportunities and closed three transactions during 2022 that bring innovative and robust offerings to elevate our payments business and broaden our product suites. We further strengthened our balance sheet and aggressively reduced our term debt with fourth quarter repayments of $90 million. For the full year, we reduced debt by $360 million, bringing our net leverage at year-end to 1.64 times proforma EBITDA.
"As we move into 2023, I've never been more confident about Tyler's long-term prospects. This is an important year in our cloud transition, and we expect to reach an inflection point with a significant decline in license revenue that is being replaced by valuable long-term recurring SaaS revenue. In addition to short-term revenue headwinds from this mix shift, operating margins are expected to trough this year with a return to margin expansion in 2024. As we discussed throughout last year, we will also experience revenue comparison headwinds due to the end of COVID-related revenues in the fourth quarter of 2022. We're pleased that our 2023 guidance reflects expectations for high single-digit organic revenue growth, excluding COVID-related revenues, and we look forward to reporting our progress on our growth initiatives throughout the coming year," concluded Moore.
Guidance for 2023
As of February 15, 2023, Tyler Technologies is providing the following guidance for the full year 2023:
GAAP and non-GAAP total revenues are both expected to be in the range of $1.935 billion to $1.970 billion.
GAAP diluted earnings per share are expected to be in the range of $4.10 to $4.25 and may vary significantly due to the impact of stock incentive awards on the GAAP effective tax rate.
Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share are expected to be in the range of $7.50 to $7.65.
Interest expense is expected to be approximately $26 million, including approximately $4 million of amortization of debt discounts and issuance costs.
Pretax share-based compensation expense is expected to be approximately $99 million.
Research and development expense is expected to be in the range of $108 million to $110 million.
Fully diluted shares for the year are expected to be in the range of 42.5 million to 43.0 million shares.
GAAP earnings per share assumes an estimated annual effective tax rate of approximately 21% after discrete tax items including approximately $1 million of discrete tax benefits related to share-based compensation.
The non-GAAP annual effective tax rate is expected to be 22%.
Capital expenditures are expected to be in the range of $68 million to $70 million, including approximately $37 million of software development costs. Total depreciation and amortization expense is expected to be approximately $132 million, including approximately $91 million from amortization of acquisition intangibles.
GAAP to non-GAAP guidance reconciliation
Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share excludes the estimated full year impact of share-based compensation expense and employer portion of payroll tax related to employee stock transactions of approximately $99 million, and amortization of acquired software and intangible assets of approximately $91 million. Additionally, the non-GAAP tax rate of 22.0% is estimated periodically as described below under "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" and excludes approximately $1 million of estimated discrete tax benefits that are included in the GAAP estimated annual effective tax rate.

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 revenues, 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, adjusted EBITDA, and free cash flow. 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 because they provide additional insight in comparing results from period to period. 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 write-downs of acquisition-related deferred revenue, share-based compensation expense, employer portion of payroll taxes on employee stock transactions, expenses associated with amortization of intangibles arising from business combinations, acquisition-related expenses, and lease restructuring costs and other asset write-offs.
Tyler's non-GAAP tax rate for 2022 was 22.5% and for 2023 is 22.0%. This rate is based on Tyler's estimated annual GAAP income tax rate forecast, adjusted to account for items excluded from GAAP income in calculating Tyler's non-GAAP income, as well as significant non-recurring tax adjustments. The non-GAAP tax rate used in future periods will be reviewed periodically to determine whether it remains appropriate in consideration of factors including Tyler's periodic annual effective tax rate calculated in accordance with GAAP, changes resulting from tax legislation, changes in the geographic mix of revenues and expenses, and other factors deemed significant. Due to differences in tax treatment of items excluded from non-GAAP earnings, as well as the methodology applied to Tyler's estimated annual tax rate as described above, the estimated tax rate on non-GAAP income may differ from the GAAP tax rate and from Tyler's actual tax liabilities.
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) the continuing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, including its potential effects on the economic environment, our customers and our operations, as well as any changes to federal, state or local government laws, regulations or orders in connection with the pandemic; (2) changes in the budgets or regulatory environments of our clients, primarily local and state governments, that could negatively impact information technology spending; (3) disruption to our business and harm to our competitive position resulting from cyber-attacks and security vulnerabilities; (4) our ability to protect client information from security breaches and provide uninterrupted operations of data centers; (5) our ability to achieve growth or operational synergies through the integration of acquired businesses, while avoiding unanticipated costs and disruptions to existing operations; (6) material portions of our business require the internet infrastructure to be adequately maintained; (7) our ability to achieve our financial forecasts due to various factors, including project delays by our clients, reductions in transaction size, fewer transactions, delays in delivery of new products or releases or a decline in our renewal rates for service agreements; (8) general economic, political and market conditions, including inflation and changes in interest rates; (9) technological and market risks associated with the development of new products or services or of new versions of existing or acquired products or services; (10) competition in the industry in which we conduct business and the impact of competition on pricing, client retention and pressure for new products or services; (11) 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 (12) 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 and quarterly report on Form 10-Q. We expressly disclaim any obligation to publicly update or revise our forward-looking statements.

Tyler Technologies Reports Earnings for Third Quarter 2022
Source: Business Wire
Revenues grew approximately 9% organically, excluding COVID-related revenues
Tyler Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: TYL) today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022.
Third Quarter 2022 Financial Highlights:
Both GAAP and non-GAAP total revenues were $473.2 million, up 2.9% from $459.9 million and 2.7% from $460.6 million, respectively, for the third quarter of 2021. On an organic basis (excluding COVID-related revenues), GAAP revenues grew 9.0% and non-GAAP revenues grew 8.8%.
Recurring revenues from maintenance and subscriptions were $371.7 million, up 0.2% from $370.8 million for the third quarter of 2021, and comprised 78.5% of third quarter 2022 revenues, compared to 80.6% for the third quarter of 2021. On an organic basis (excluding COVID-related revenues), recurring revenues were $364.5 million, up 9.3%.
Revenues included a total of $11.7 million from NIC's COVID-related initiatives, which are expected to end in the fourth quarter. Revenues from COVID-related initiatives totaled $43.3 million in the third quarter of 2021.
Operating income was $60.9 million, up 8.4% from $56.2 million for the third quarter of 2021. Non-GAAP operating income was $117.8 million, up 0.9% from $116.8 million for the third quarter of 2021.
Net income was $53.2 million, or $1.26 per diluted share, up 20.5% from $44.2 million, or $1.04 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2021. Non-GAAP net income was $87.4 million, or $2.06 per diluted share, up 2.8% from $85.0 million, or $2.01 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2021.
The annual non-GAAP effective tax rate is 22.5%, down from 24.0% in 2021, as the result of an increase in the estimated research tax credit. For the third quarter, the non-GAAP effective tax rate was 19.6% to reflect the change in tax rate for the first nine months of the year.
Cash flows from operations were $129.4 million compared to $205.4 million for the third quarter of 2021. Free cash flow was $115.6 million compared to $192.8 million for the third quarter of 2021.
Adjusted EBITDA was $126.9 million, up 1.5% from $125.0 million for the third quarter of 2021.
Software subscription arrangements comprised approximately 91% of the total new software contract value for the third quarter, compared to approximately 74% for the third quarter of 2021.
Software subscription bookings for the third quarter added $28.1 million in annual recurring revenue.
Annualized non-GAAP recurring revenues (ARR) were $1.49 billion, unchanged from $1.49 billion for the third quarter of 2021 due to a reduction in COVID-related subscription revenue. On an organic basis, excluding COVID-related revenues, annualized non-GAAP ARR grew 11.2%.
Total backlog was $1.88 billion, up 6.3% from $1.77 billion at September 30, 2021.
"Third quarter results were highlighted by strong execution and robust public sector market demand, supported by healthy budgets," said Lynn Moore, Tyler's president and chief executive officer. "We are carrying strong momentum across our divisions, and market activity continues to build and drive larger opportunities and multi-suite wins. Professional services revenue continues to be pressured as we onboard new implementation team members and build capacity to support our growing backlog.
"Overall, we reported solid top and bottom-line results while advancing our cloud-first strategy. Total contract value for new software subscription agreements reached a new high and comprised 91% of our new software contract value this quarter. Contract signings were highlighted by a five-year $54 million contract with the U.S. Department of State for our Case Management Development Platform. This represents the largest win in our Federal Division's history, although only approximately $8 million of the contract value was included in the third quarter bookings due to certain contract provisions.
"In light of the rising interest rate environment, we continue to prioritize the use of excess cash to aggressively reduce debt, while being opportunistic toward strategic acquisitions and investments that enhance our long-term growth strategy. During the quarter, we reduced term debt by $190 million and our net leverage is now under two times proforma EBITDA.
"Looking forward, we are encouraged by continued strength in the public sector markets as reflected in stable or increasing RFP and demo activity across our business units. We are also pleased that our software revenue mix continues to arc towards SaaS even more rapidly than previously expected, even though the increased mix of SaaS arrangements is putting pressure on near-term revenue growth, as license revenue will decline faster than planned this year and in 2023. We have reduced the upper end of our full year revenue guidance to reflect lower license revenue, as well as pressure on professional services revenue related to staffing. The midpoint of our annual non-GAAP EPS guidance, adjusted for the reduction in our effective tax rate, is unchanged," concluded Moore.
Guidance for 2022
As of October 26, 2022, Tyler Technologies is providing the following guidance for the full year 2022:
GAAP and non-GAAP total revenues are both expected to be in the range of $1.837 billion to $1.857 billion.
Total revenues are expected to include approximately $49 million of COVID-related revenues from NIC's TourHealth and rent relief services. Revenue from TourHealth concluded in the second quarter, while revenue from the rent relief program are expected to end in the fourth quarter.
GAAP diluted earnings per share are expected to be in the range of $3.89 to $4.05 and may vary significantly due to the impact of stock option activity on the GAAP effective tax rate.
Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share are expected to be in the range of $7.51 to $7.65.
Interest expense is expected to be approximately $28 million, including approximately $7 million of non-cash amortization of debt discounts and issuance costs.
Pretax non-cash, share-based compensation expense is expected to be approximately $107 million.
Research and development expense is expected to be in the range of $97 million to $100 million.
Fully diluted shares for the year are expected to be in the range of 42.4 million to 42.8 million shares.
GAAP earnings per share assumes an estimated annual effective tax rate of approximately 14.0% after discrete tax items, including approximately $8 million of discrete tax benefits related to share-based compensation.
The non-GAAP annual effective tax rate is expected to be 22.5%, down from 24% based on a change in our estimated research tax credit and its effect on our annual effective GAAP tax rate.
Capital expenditures are expected to be in the range of $58 million to $62 million, including approximately $34 million of capitalized software development costs. Total depreciation and amortization expense is expected to be approximately $147 million, including approximately $112 million from amortization of acquisition intangibles.
GAAP to non-GAAP guidance reconciliation
Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share excludes the estimated full-year impact of non-cash share-based compensation expense and employer portion of payroll tax related to employee stock transactions of approximately $107 million, amortization of acquired software and intangible assets of approximately $112 million, acquisition-related costs of approximately $1 million, and lease restructuring costs of approximately $1 million. Additionally, the non-GAAP tax rate of 22.5% is estimated periodically as described below under "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" and excludes approximately $8 million of estimated discrete tax benefits that are included in the GAAP estimated annual effective tax rate.

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 revenues, 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, adjusted EBITDA, and free cash flow. 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 because they provide additional insight in comparing results from period to period. 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 write-downs of acquisition-related deferred revenue, share-based compensation expense, employer portion of payroll taxes on employee stock transactions, expenses associated with amortization of intangibles arising from business combinations, acquisition-related expenses, and lease restructuring costs. Annualized non-GAAP recurring revenues (ARR) is calculated by annualizing the current quarter's non-GAAP recurring revenues from maintenance and subscriptions.
Tyler currently uses a non-GAAP tax rate of 22.5%. This rate is based on Tyler's estimated annual GAAP income tax rate forecast, adjusted to account for items excluded from GAAP income in calculating Tyler's non-GAAP income, as well as significant non-recurring tax adjustments. The non-GAAP tax rate used in future periods will be reviewed periodically to determine whether it remains appropriate in consideration of factors including Tyler's periodic annual effective tax rate calculated in accordance with GAAP, changes resulting from tax legislation, changes in the geographic mix of revenues and expenses, and other factors deemed significant. Due to differences in tax treatment of items excluded from non-GAAP earnings, as well as the methodology applied to Tyler's estimated annual tax rate as described above, the estimated tax rate on non-GAAP income may differ from the GAAP tax rate and from Tyler's actual tax liabilities.
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) the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, including its potential effects on the economic environment, our customers and our operations, as well as any changes to federal, state or local government laws, regulations or orders in connection with the pandemic; (2) changes in the budgets or regulatory environments of our clients, primarily local and state governments, that could negatively impact information technology spending; (3) disruption to our business and harm to our competitive position resulting from cyber-attacks and security vulnerabilities; (4) our ability to protect client information from security breaches and provide uninterrupted operations of data centers; (5) our ability to achieve growth or operational synergies through the integration of acquired businesses, while avoiding unanticipated costs and disruptions to existing operations; (6) material portions of our business require the Internet infrastructure to be adequately maintained; (7) our ability to achieve our financial forecasts due to various factors, including project delays by our clients, reductions in transaction size, fewer transactions, delays in delivery of new products or releases or a decline in our renewal rates for service agreements; (8) general economic, political and market conditions, including inflation and increases in interest rates; (9) technological and market risks associated with the development of new products or services or of new versions of existing or acquired products or services; (10) competition in the industry in which we conduct business and the impact of competition on pricing, client retention and pressure for new products or services; (11) 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 (12) costs of compliance and any failure to comply with government and stock exchange regulations. 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 and quarterly report on Form 10-Q. We expressly disclaim any obligation to publicly update or revise our forward-looking statements.

Tyler Technologies Reports Earnings for Second Quarter 2022
Source: Business Wire
Total revenues grew 16.0% driven by 28.2% growth in subscriptions
Tyler Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: TYL) today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022.
Second Quarter 2022 Financial Highlights:
Both GAAP and non-GAAP total revenues were $468.7 million, up 16.0% from $404.1 million and 15.6% from $405.4 million, respectively, for the second quarter of 2021. On an organic basis (excluding COVID-related revenues), GAAP revenues grew 6.2% and non-GAAP revenues grew 5.8%.
Recurring revenues from maintenance and subscriptions were $372.6 million, up 16.7% from $319.2 million for the second quarter of 2021, and comprised 79.5% of second quarter 2022 revenue, up from 79.0% for the second quarter of 2021. On an organic basis (excluding COVID-related revenues), recurring revenues were $331.4 million, up 7.7%.
Subscription revenue and software services revenue included a total of $15.2 million from NIC's COVID-related initiatives. Revenues from TourHealth concluded in the second quarter, and revenues from the Virginia rent relief program are expected to wind down in the third quarter.
Operating income was $56.8 million, up 48.2% from $38.3 million for the second quarter of 2021. Non-GAAP operating income was $110.6 million, up 3.0% from $107.4 million for the second quarter of 2021.
Net income was $39.9 million, or $0.94 per diluted share, up 56.5% from $25.5 million, or $0.61 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2021. Non-GAAP net income was $79.5 million, or $1.88 per diluted share, up 2.9% from $77.2 million, or $1.83 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2021.
Cash flows from operations were $76.7 million compared to negative $20.3 million for the second quarter of 2021. Free cash flow was $60.0 million compared to negative $33.5 million for the second quarter of 2021.
Adjusted EBITDA was $119.0 million, up 3.8% from $114.7 million for the second quarter of 2021.
Software subscription arrangements comprised approximately 74% of the total new software contract value for the second quarter, compared to approximately 65% for the second quarter of 2021.
Software subscription bookings for the second quarter added $27.6 million in annual recurring revenue.
Annualized non-GAAP recurring revenue (ARR) was $1.49 billion, up 16.3% from $1.28 billion for the second quarter of 2021.
Total backlog was $1.85 billion, up 13.9% from $1.63 billion at June 30, 2021.
“Our market conditions remain strong, reflected by request for proposal and demo activities that continue to trend positively," said Lynn Moore, Tyler's president and chief executive officer. Total revenues grew approximately 16.0%, with organic revenue growth of 6.2%. Subscription revenues grew 28.2% in total and 14.1% organically, marking our 66th consecutive quarter of double-digit subscription revenue growth. Services revenues were flat on an organic basis, as we work to grow our implementation teams to support our growing backlog and anticipated continued sales growth.
"Our NIC division continued to exhibit strength in the second quarter, with core revenue growth of 8%, excluding COVID-related revenues, which we expect to end in the third quarter. Our enthusiasm around cross-sell opportunities with NIC remains high, and the pipeline of those opportunities doubled this quarter.
"Cash flows from operations and free cash flow were both robust at $76.7 million and $60.0 million, respectively. As interest rates continue to rise, we're prioritizing the use of excess cash to aggressively reduce debt, while maintaining flexibility to take advantage of opportunities to pursue strategic acquisitions and investments that survive long-term value.
"Our strong competitive position and the active public sector market resulted in robust second quarter bookings of approximately $562 million, which grew 21% over last year. Excluding NIC, bookings grew 16%. For the trailing twelve months, bookings were approximately $2.0 billion, up 53%, and excluding NIC, were approximately $1.5 billion, growing 21%.
"Subscription agreements comprised 74% of our new software contract value this quarter, as we continue to see an acceleration in the shift of our new contract mix from license to SaaS. In addition, the number of clients converting from on-premises to SaaS reached a new high of 96 in the second quarter. As expected, margins compressed compared to the second quarter of 2021, reflecting changes in revenue mix and costs related to our accelerated transition to the cloud.
"We're pleased with our results for the first half of 2022 and remain confident in our ability to perform at a high level even against a challenging macroeconomic backdrop. That confidence is driven by the unique characteristics of the public sector market, the durability of our business model, and the reliability of our growing recurring revenues from providing mission-critical solutions to our clients.
"While our revenue and operating margin expectations for the full year have not changed, we have adjusted our earnings guidance to reflect changes in our assumptions around interest expense, given current expectations for interest rate hikes and accelerated non-cash amortization of debt discounts and issuance costs associated with our prepayment of debt," concluded Moore.
Guidance for 2022
As of July 27, 2022, Tyler Technologies is providing the following guidance for the full year 2022:
GAAP and non-GAAP total revenues are both expected to be in the range of $1.835 billion to $1.870 billion.
Total revenues are expected to include approximately $44 million of COVID-related revenues from NIC's TourHealth and rent relief services. Revenues from TourHealth concluded in the second quarter, while revenues from the rent relief program are expected to wind down in the third quarter.
GAAP diluted earnings per share are expected to be in the range of $3.60 to $3.76 and may vary significantly due to the impact of stock incentive awards on the GAAP effective tax rate.
Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share are expected to be in the range of $7.36 to $7.52.
Interest expense is expected to be approximately $30 million, including approximately $7.5 million of non-cash amortization of debt discounts and issuance costs. This represents an increase of approximately $7 million compared to our previous guidance, based on current expectations for rate hikes and accelerated non-cash amortization of debt discounts and issuance costs associated with debt repayments, with an impact on both GAAP and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share of approximately $0.12 per share.
Pretax non-cash, share-based compensation expense is expected to be approximately $107 million.
Research and development expense is expected to be in the range of $98 million to $101 million.
Fully diluted shares for the year are expected to be in the range of 42.4 million to 42.8 million shares.
GAAP earnings per share assumes an estimated annual effective tax rate of approximately 22.0% after discrete tax items, including approximately $8 million of discrete tax benefits related to share-based compensation.
The non-GAAP annual effective tax rate is expected to be 24%.
Capital expenditures are expected to be in the range of $58 million to $62 million, including approximately $34 million of capitalized software development costs. Total depreciation and amortization expense is expected to be approximately $144 million, including approximately $109 million from amortization of acquisition intangibles.
GAAP to non-GAAP guidance reconciliation
Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share excludes the estimated full-year impact of non-cash share-based compensation expense and employer portion of payroll tax related to employee stock transactions of approximately $107 million, amortization of acquired software and intangible assets of approximately $109 million, and acquisition-related costs of approximately $1 million. Additionally, the non-GAAP tax rate of 24% is estimated periodically as described below under "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" and excludes approximately $8 million of estimated discrete tax benefits that are included in the GAAP estimated annual effective tax rate.

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 revenues, 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, adjusted EBITDA, and free cash flow. 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 because they provide additional insight in comparing results from period to period. 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 write-downs of acquisition-related deferred revenue, share-based compensation expense, employer portion of payroll taxes on employee stock transactions, expenses associated with amortization of intangibles arising from business combinations and acquisition-related expenses.
Tyler currently uses a non-GAAP tax rate of 24%. This rate is based on Tyler's estimated annual GAAP income tax rate forecast, adjusted to account for items excluded from GAAP income in calculating Tyler's non-GAAP income, as well as significant non-recurring tax adjustments. The non-GAAP tax rate used in future periods will be reviewed periodically to determine whether it remains appropriate in consideration of factors including Tyler's periodic annual effective tax rate calculated in accordance with GAAP, changes resulting from tax legislation, changes in the geographic mix of revenues and expenses, and other factors deemed significant. Due to differences in tax treatment of items excluded from non-GAAP earnings, as well as the methodology applied to Tyler's estimated annual tax rate as described above, the estimated tax rate on non-GAAP income may differ from the GAAP tax rate and from Tyler's actual tax liabilities.
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) the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, including its potential effects on the economic environment, our customers and our operations, as well as any changes to federal, state or local government laws, regulations or orders in connection with the pandemic; (2) changes in the budgets or regulatory environments of our clients, primarily local and state governments, that could negatively impact information technology spending; (3) disruption to our business and harm to our competitive position resulting from cyber-attacks and security vulnerabilities; (4) our ability to protect client information from security breaches and provide uninterrupted operations of data centers; (5) our ability to achieve growth or operational synergies through the integration of acquired businesses, while avoiding unanticipated costs and disruptions to existing operations; (6) material portions of our business require the Internet infrastructure to be adequately maintained; (7) our ability to achieve our financial forecasts due to various factors, including project delays by our clients, reductions in transaction size, fewer transactions, delays in delivery of new products or releases or a decline in our renewal rates for service agreements; (8) general economic, political and market conditions, including inflation and increases in interest rates; (9) technological and market risks associated with the development of new products or services or of new versions of existing or acquired products or services; (10) competition in the industry in which we conduct business and the impact of competition on pricing, client retention and pressure for new products or services; (11) 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 (12) costs of compliance and any failure to comply with government and stock exchange regulations. 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 and quarterly report on Form 10-Q. We expressly disclaim any obligation to publicly update or revise our forward-looking statements.

Tyler Technologies Reports Earnings for First Quarter 2021
Source: Business Wire
Subscription revenues grew 25%; cash flow from operations grew 26%
Tyler Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: TYL) today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2021.
First Quarter 2021 Financial Highlights:
Total revenues were $294.8 million, up 6.6% from $276.5 million for the first quarter of 2020. Non-GAAP total revenues were $294.8 million, up 6.5% from $276.8 million for the first quarter of 2020.
Recurring revenues from maintenance and subscriptions were $221.6 million, up 13.0% from $196.1 million for the first quarter of 2020, and comprised 75.2% of first quarter 2021 revenue.
Operating income was $38.2 million, up 12.7% from $33.9 million for the first quarter of 2020. Non-GAAP operating income was $78.9 million, up 18.1% from $66.8 million for the first quarter of 2020.
Net income was $37.0 million, or $0.88 per diluted share, down 22.2% compared to $47.6 million, or $1.16 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2020. Non-GAAP net income was $60.0 million, or $1.43 per diluted share, up 16.5% compared to $51.5 million, or $1.25 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2020.
Cash flows from operations were $71.7 million, up 26.4% from $56.7 million for the first quarter of 2020. Free cash flow was $61.7 million, up 33.9% from $46.0 million for the first quarter of 2020.
Adjusted EBITDA was $85.7 million, up 17.1% compared to $73.2 million for the first quarter of 2020.
Software subscription arrangements comprised approximately 66% of the total new software contract value in the first quarter, compared to approximately 73% in the first quarter of 2020.
Subscription bookings in the first quarter added $10.2 million in annual recurring revenue.
Annualized non-GAAP recurring revenues were $886.4 million, up 12.9% from $785.0 million for the first quarter of 2020.
Total backlog was $1.55 billion, up 3.0% from $1.50 billion at March 31, 2020. Software-related backlog (excluding appraisal services) was $1.50 billion, up 2.9% from $1.46 billion at March 31, 2020.
Effective January 1, 2021, Tyler adopted the requirements of ASU No. 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes; and ASU No. 2020-06, Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity's Own Equity. We do not expect the adoption of these two standards to have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
On March 31, 2021, Tyler acquired DataSpec, a provider of electronic management of veterans' claims, and ReadySub, a cloud-based platform that assists school districts with absence tracking, filling substitute teacher assignments, and automating essential payroll processes. The two acquisitions will not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
On April 21, 2021, Tyler completed the acquisition of NIC Inc. for approximately $2.3 billion in cash. NIC is a leading provider of digital government solutions and payments processing that serves more than 7,100 federal, state, and local government agencies across the nation. In connection with the acquisition, in March Tyler completed a $600 million offering of 0.25% convertible senior notes due 2026, and in April entered into a new $1.4 billion senior unsecured credit facility that includes $900 million of three and five-year term notes, and a new $500 million five-year revolving credit agreement.
“Our first quarter results surpassed our expectations, providing an exceptional start to 2021,” said Lynn Moore, Tyler’s president and chief executive officer. “Total revenues grew 6.6% to reach an all-time quarterly high, led by subscriptions revenue growth of 25.4%. A favorable revenue mix coupled with effective cost management drove our non-GAAP gross margin to 53.3%, up 210 basis points, and our non-GAAP operating margin to 26.8%, a 270 basis point improvement. Cash flows from operations and free cash flow remained very robust, growing 26.4% and 33.9%, respectively.
"We're pleased to see signs of growing activity in our public sector markets, and expect that the $350 billion of direct federal fiscal relief for state and local government under the American Rescue Plan Act will have a positive impact on government technology spending. Bookings in the first quarter were solid at approximately $247 million, but were down 22.8% against a challenging comparison with the first quarter of 2020, which included several large contracts, including two SaaS contracts with the North Carolina Administrative Office of the Courts that totaled approximately $38 million.
"In addition to the DataSpec and ReadySub acquisitions in March, last week we completed the NIC acquisition - the largest in our history. We are extremely excited to welcome our new teams to Tyler and look forward to the benefits these transactions will bring to our clients, shareholders, and employees. NIC had very strong first quarter results that exceeded their plan. NIC's first quarter core revenues, excluding the TourHealth and COVID initiatives that are expected to wind down after the second quarter, grew more than 10% over last year, and their operating income, excluding the TourHealth and COVID initiatives and acquisition costs, rose more than 20%.
"We remain on track to achieve or exceed the annual revenue and EPS guidance that we communicated in February for Tyler, excluding the impact of the NIC acquisition. Because of antitrust restrictions, we took a conservative approach to our integration and strategic planning for NIC prior to closing the transaction. We are currently working closely with NIC's leadership to evaluate strategic growth opportunities that take advantage of the combined strengths of the two businesses. We expect to complete the fine-tuning of our joint operating and financial plans for the remainder of the year and issue 2021 guidance for the combined company during the second quarter," added Moore.

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 revenues, 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, adjusted EBITDA, and free cash flow. 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 because they provide additional insight in comparing results from period to period. 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 write-downs of acquisition-related deferred revenue and acquired subleases, share-based compensation expense, employer portion of payroll taxes on employee stock transactions, expenses associated with amortization of intangibles arising from business combinations, acquisition-related expenses, and incremental costs associated with COVID-19.
Tyler currently uses a non-GAAP tax rate of 24%. This rate is based on Tyler's estimated annual GAAP income tax rate forecast, adjusted to account for items excluded from GAAP income in calculating Tyler's non-GAAP income, as well as significant non-recurring tax adjustments. The non-GAAP tax rate used in future periods will be reviewed periodically to determine whether it remains appropriate in consideration of factors including Tyler's periodic effective tax rate calculated in accordance with GAAP, changes resulting from tax legislation, changes in the geographic mix of revenues and expenses, and other factors deemed significant. Due to differences in tax treatment of items excluded from non-GAAP earnings, as well as the methodology applied to Tyler's estimated annual tax rate as described above, the estimated tax rate on non-GAAP income may differ from the GAAP tax rate and from Tyler's actual tax liabilities.
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) the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, including its potential effects on the economic environment, our customers and our operations, as well as any changes to federal, state or local government laws, regulations or orders in connection with the pandemic; (2) changes in the budgets or regulatory environments of our clients, primarily local and state governments, that could negatively impact information technology spending; (3) disruption to our business and harm to our competitive position resulting from cyber-attacks and security vulnerabilities; (4) our ability to protect client information from security breaches and provide uninterrupted operations of data centers; (5) our ability to achieve growth or operational synergies through the integration of acquired businesses, while avoiding unanticipated costs and disruptions to existing operations; (6) material portions of our business require the Internet infrastructure to be adequately maintained; (7) our ability to achieve our financial forecasts due to various factors, including project delays by our clients, reductions in transaction size, fewer transactions, delays in delivery of new products or releases or a decline in our renewal rates for service agreements; (8) general economic, political and market conditions; (9) technological and market risks associated with the development of new products or services or of new versions of existing or acquired products or services; (10) competition in the industry in which we conduct business and the impact of competition on pricing, client retention and pressure for new products or services; (11) 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 (12) costs of compliance and any failure to comply with government and stock exchange regulations. 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 and quarterly report on Form 10-Q. We expressly disclaim any obligation to publicly update or revise our forward-looking statements.
