Tyler Technologies Second Quarter 2004 Operating Income Increases
63%; Net Income Rises 50% on 22% Revenue Growth DALLAS, July 28
/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Tyler Technologies, Inc. (NYSE:TYL) today
reported that operating income for the quarter ended June 30, 2004
increased 63% compared with the same quarter of 2003, fueled by a
29% increase in software-related revenues (software licenses,
software services and maintenance). Total revenues for the quarter
ended June 30, 2004 increased 22% to $44.3 million from $36.1
million in the same period last year. Software- related revenues
grew in the aggregate 29% for the quarter, while appraisal services
revenues declined 4%. Tyler's results include the operations of
Eden Systems, Inc. since its acquisition by Tyler in December 2003.
Pro forma revenues, as if the acquisition of Eden had occurred as
of the beginning of 2003, increased 12% from $39.4 million in the
three months ended June 30, 2003. Operating income for the quarter
ended June 30, 2004 was $5.0 million, compared with operating
income of $3.1 million in the same quarter of 2003. Net income for
the three months ended June 30, 2004 was $3.0 million, or $0.07 per
diluted share. Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2003 was
$2.0 million, or $0.04 per share. Second quarter EBITDA, or
earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and
amortization, increased 51% to $7.8 million from $5.2 million in
the second quarter of 2003. Revenues for the six months ended June
30, 2004 increased 25% to $85.7 million from $68.5 million in 2003.
Pro forma revenues for the first half of 2004 increased 16% from
$74.2 million in the first half of 2003. Operating income for the
six months ended June 30, 2004 was $8.4 million, an increase of 74%
compared to $4.8 million in 2003. Net income for the six months
ended June 30, 2004 was $5.1 million, or $0.11 per diluted share.
Excluding an after-tax realized gain in connection with the cash
sale of Tyler's entire investment in H.T.E., Inc (HTE) in 2003, net
income for the six months ended June 30, 2004 would have increased
65% from $3.1 million, or $0.07 per share, in the first six months
of 2003. Including the after-tax realized gain of $16.2 million, or
$0.35 per share, from the HTE investment, net income for the six
months ended June 30, 2003 totaled $19.3 million, or $0.42 per
diluted share. EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2004 was
$14.1 million. Excluding the realized gain on the HTE investment in
the first half of 2003, EBITDA in the first half of 2004 would have
increased 55% over EBITDA of $9.1 million in the first half of
2003. EBITDA for the first six months of 2003, including the HTE
gain of $23.2 million, totaled $32.3 million. Free cash flow for
the second quarter of 2004 was $5.5 million (cash provided by
operating activities of $7.3 million minus capital expenditures of
$1.8 million). For the second quarter of 2003, free cash flow was
$3.5 million (cash provided by operating activities of $5.6 million
minus capital expenditures of 2.1 million). Tyler has no debt and
had $35.2 million in cash, short-term investments, and certificates
of deposit at June 30, 2004. "Tyler continued to show solid growth
in both revenues and earnings in the second quarter, with
exceptionally strong growth in our software revenues," said John S.
Marr, Jr., Tyler's Chief Operating Officer. "We were pleased with
our top-line growth, which included organic growth of approximately
11%. Expansion into new geographies and success in larger
opportunities continue to be the primary drivers of internal
growth. In addition, the Eden Systems acquisition contributed
growth of approximately 11% in the second quarter." Mr. Marr added,
"Tyler's overall gross margin for the second quarter increased
slightly to 38.6% from 38.4% in the same quarter last year,
primarily due to a continuation of the positive shift in our
revenue mix toward more software-related revenues. In the second
quarter of 2004, 79.8% of our total revenues were software-related,
compared to 75.8% of our revenues in the same quarter of 2003.
"Selling, general and administrative expenses declined to 25.8% of
revenues in the current quarter from 27.8% in the same quarter last
year. Operating income increased 63% from the second quarter of
last year, and our operating margin grew to 11.3% from 8.5% last
year. "Cash flow continued to be very solid this quarter,"
continued Mr. Marr. "In accordance with our plan, capital spending
for software development declined from last year's level. In
addition, we continued to repurchase our common stock on the open
market under the existing Board authorization. During the second
quarter, Tyler repurchased approximately 327,000 shares of common
stock at an average cost of $8.95 per share. As of June 30, 2004,
we have just under 1.5 million shares remaining under our current
repurchase authorization. "Our guidance for the full year 2004 has
not changed and our current outlook for the second half of the year
is positive," added Mr. Marr. "We continue to expect that revenue
growth for the year 2004 will be in the range of 20% to 24%, with
approximately half of the growth coming from the acquisition of
Eden Systems. Net earnings for the full year 2004 are expected to
be in the range of $12 million to $13 million, with fully diluted
earnings per share of $0.27 to $0.29. Tyler's effective income tax
rate for 2004 is expected to be approximately 41%. In addition, we
still expect that total capital expenditures in 2004 will be below
2003 expenditures, with capital spending in the range of $7.5
million to $8.0 million." Tyler Technologies will hold a conference

income before interest, income taxes, depreciation and
amortization. Although EBITDA is not a calculation in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
(GAAP), we believe that EBITDA is widely used as a measure of
operating performance. Nevertheless, the measure should not be
considered in isolation or as a substitute for operating income,
cash flows from operating activities or any other measure for
determining operating performance or liquidity that is calculated
in accordance with GAAP. In addition, since all companies do not
calculate EBITDA in the same manner, this measure may not be
comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other
companies. The following reconciles EBITDA to net income for the
