-- Services and support revenue increased for the three months ended March
31, 2025, primarily driven by growth in data processing and hosting
revenue within cloud of 12.0% and higher deconversion revenue by $8,801,
partially offset by the decrease in license and hardware revenues of
35.0%. Processing revenue increased for the three months ended March 31,
2025, primarily driven by growth in card revenue of 8.1%, transaction
and digital revenue of 14.6%, and payment processing revenue of 10.4%.
-- Services and support revenue increased for the nine months ended March
31, 2025, primarily driven by growth in data processing and hosting
revenue within cloud of 12.1% and higher deconversion revenue by $3,549,
partially offset by a decrease in license and hardware revenues of
30.7%. Processing revenue increased for the nine months ended March 31,
2025, primarily driven by growth in card revenue of 6.6% and transaction
and digital revenue of 11.9%. Another driver was an increase in payment
processing revenues.
-- For the three months ended March 31, 2025, core segment revenue
increased 8.4%, payments segment revenue increased 7.7%, complementary
segment revenue increased 12.2%, and corporate and other segment revenue

-- Cost of revenue increased for the three months ended March 31, 2025,
primarily due to higher direct costs generally consistent with increases
in the related lines of revenue and increased internal licenses and
fees, partially offset by a rise in labor cost deferral. Cost of revenue
increased for the nine months ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to
higher direct costs generally consistent with increases in the related
lines of revenue, compensation increases in the trailing twelve months,
higher internal licenses and fees from increased deployments and prices,
a rise in amortization from capital development projects placed into
service in the trailing twelve months, and increased cloud consumption
fees, partially offset by a decrease in license and hardware costs
consistent with the decrease in related lines of revenue and a rise in
labor cost deferral.
-- Research and development expense increased for the three and nine months
ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to higher personnel costs (net of
capitalization) from compensation increases and employee headcount
additions in the trailing twelve months. For the nine months ended March
31, 2025, increased internal licenses and fees was also a contributor.
-- Selling, general, and administrative expense increased for the three
months ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to higher personnel costs
from compensation increases related to a rise in employee headcount in
the trailing twelve months. Selling, general, and administrative expense
decreased for the nine months ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to the
decrease in non-recurring personnel costs when compared to the prior
fiscal year period, partially offset by an increase in recurring
personnel costs from higher commissions expense and compensation
increases related to a rise in employee headcount in the trailing twelve
months .

respectively.
According to Mimi Carsley, CFO and Treasurer, "Our third quarter results included strong growth in key areas of our revenue, led by public and private cloud at 12% and processing at nearly 9%. Those results were tempered by mostly non-recurring contraction in some of our non-key revenue areas, including licenses and hardware, leading to overall non-GAAP revenue growth of 7%. That strong revenue growth and our disciplined approach to controlling costs led to non-GAAP operating income growth of over 17%."
6 Operating margin is calculated by dividing operating income by revenue. Operating margin plus operating expense components as a percentage of total revenue may not equal 100% due to rounding.

*The VEDIP program expense for the fiscal nine months ended March 31, 2024, was related to a Company voluntary separation program offered to certain eligible employees beginning in July 2023.
**GAAP revenue is comprised of services and support and processing revenues (see page 2). Reducing services and support revenue by deconversion revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024 which was $9,644 for the current fiscal year quarter and $843 for the prior fiscal year quarter, results in non-GAAP adjusted services and support revenue growth of 5.6% quarter over quarter. There were no non-GAAP adjustments to processing revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2025, or 2024.
Reducing services and support revenue by deconversion revenue for the nine months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024, which was $13,410 for the current fiscal year period and $9,861 for the prior fiscal year period, results in non-GAAP adjusted services and support revenue growth of 5.0% period over period. There were no non-GAAP adjustments to processing revenue for the nine months ended March 31, 2025, or 2024.
***Non-GAAP adjusted operating margin is calculated by dividing non-GAAP adjusted operating income by non-GAAP adjusted revenue.
****The tax impact of adjustments is calculated using a tax rate of 24% for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024. The tax rate for non-GAAP adjustment items takes a broad look at our recurring tax adjustments and applies them to non-GAAP revenue that does not have its own specific tax impacts.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) is the term used to refer to the standard framework of guidelines for financial accounting in the United States. GAAP includes the standards, conventions, and rules accountants follow in recording and summarizing transactions in the preparation of financial statements. In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with GAAP, we have provided certain non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted revenue, adjusted operating income, adjusted segment income, adjusted cost of revenue, adjusted operating expenses, adjusted operating margin, adjusted segment income margin, non-GAAP earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (non-GAAP EBITDA), free cash flow, return on invested capital (ROIC), non-GAAP adjusted net income, and non-GAAP earnings per share (EPS).
We believe non-GAAP financial measures help investors better understand the underlying fundamentals and true operations of our business. Adjusted revenue, adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted segment income, adjusted segment income margin, adjusted cost of revenue, adjusted operating expenses, adjusted net income, and non-GAAP EPS eliminate one-time deconversion revenue and associated costs and the effects of the VEDIP program expense related to a Company voluntary separation program offered to certain eligible employees beginning in July 2023, which management believes are not indicative of the Company's operating performance. Such adjustments give investors further insight into our performance. Non-GAAP EBITDA is defined as net income attributable to the Company before the effect of interest expense, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, adjusted for net income before the effect of interest expense, taxes, depreciation, and amortization attributable to eliminated one-time deconversions and the VEDIP program expense. Free cash flow is defined as net cash from operating activities, less capitalized expenditures, internal use software, and capitalized software, plus proceeds from the sale of assets. ROIC is defined as net income divided by average invested capital, which is the average of beginning and ending long-term debt and stockholders' equity for a given period. Management believes that non-GAAP EBITDA is an important measure of the Company's overall operating performance and excludes certain costs and other transactions that management deems one time or non-operational in nature; free cash flow is useful to measure the funds generated in a given period that are available for debt service requirements and strategic capital decisions; and ROIC is a measure of the Company's allocation efficiency and effectiveness of its invested capital. For these reasons, management also uses these non-GAAP financial measures in its assessment and management of the Company's performance.
Non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Non-GAAP financial measures have no standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP and therefore, are unlikely to be comparable with calculations of similar measures for other companies.
Any non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in context with the GAAP financial presentation and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP measures. Reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures to related GAAP measures are included.

FAQ for Analysts / Investors
1. What caused the slowing of non-GAAP revenue growth in the 3(rd) quarter?
-- Hardware revenue was down $4 million from the prior year quarter.
Revenue growth would have been 7.8% overall had hardware revenue
remained consistent.
-- Growth in our key areas of revenue (Cloud and Processing revenue) grew
at 9.8%, compared to 8.8% a year ago.
2. What are the key factors lowering annual non-GAAP revenue guidance?
-- The outlook for hardware revenue is down as we are seeing customers
delay large capital purchases, possibly due to economic uncertainty.
-- Similar to hardware, we are seeing customers delaying the start of
signed non-recurring projects and the implementation of post-core
products.
-- Given the recent decline in consumer sentiment, there is risk that we
could see lower transaction volumes in the coming months.
3. What caused Core segment revenue growth for the 3(rd) quarter to lag behind Payments and Complementary?
-- License and credit union hardware revenue was a drag on Core revenue
growth in the 3(rd) quarter.
-- However, growth in our key areas of revenue, like Cloud, outperformed
the prior year's quarter.
4. What is driving the growth in operating margins?
-- Growth in the key areas of our business has added new high incremental
margin revenue, and we have been disciplined in our approach to
compensation, headcount and infrastructure costs throughout the fiscal
year.
5. What is the M&A outlook for Jack Henry financial institutions?
-- We have seen an acceleration of merger activity, including acquisitions
of financial institutions by Jack Henry customers.
