Montag, 31.07.2017 22:20 von

PR Newswire

SAN JOSE, Calif., July 31, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- FICO (NYSE:FICO), a leading predictive analytics and decision management software company, today announced results for its third fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2017.

Third Quarter Fiscal 2017 GAAP Results

Net income for the quarter totaled $25.2 million, or $0.78 per share, versus $35.0 million, or $1.08 per share, reported in the prior year period. The current quarter earnings include a reduction to income tax expense of $2.7 million, or $0.08 per share, associated with the adoption of FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-09 ("ASU 2016-09"). The current quarter also includes a pre-tax restructuring charge of $4.5 million, or $0.09 per share after tax.

Net cash provided by operating activities for the quarter was $72.0 million versus $85.4 million in the prior year period.

Third Quarter Fiscal 2017 Non-GAAP Results

Non-GAAP Net Income for the quarter was $37.4 million vs. $46.8 million in the prior year period. Non-GAAP EPS for the quarter was $1.16 vs. $1.45 in the prior year period. Free cash flow for the quarter was $66.8 million vs. $80.0 million in the prior year period. Free cash flow for both periods reflects the impact of ASU 2016-09. These non-GAAP financial measures are described in the financial table captioned "Non-GAAP Results" and are reconciled to the corresponding GAAP measures in the financial tables at the end of this release.

Third Quarter Fiscal 2017 GAAP Revenue

The company reported revenues of $231.0 million for the quarter as compared to $238.8 million reported in the prior year period. 

"We had a very strong quarter in our Scores business, where our efforts to expand our revenue sources continue to pay off," said Will Lansing, chief executive officer. "We also had a strong bookings quarter, posting more than $90 million for the third consecutive quarter, and continuing to build a backlog of recurring revenue."

Revenues for the third quarter of fiscal 2017 across each of the company's three operating segments were as follows:

  • Applications revenues, which include the company's preconfigured decision management applications and associated professional services, were $133.8 million in the third quarter, compared with $141.6 million in the prior year quarter, a decrease of 5%. This was primarily due to decreased license sales in Fraud Management Solutions.
  • Scores revenues, which include the company's business-to-business (B2B) scoring solutions and associated professional services, and business-to-consumer (B2C) service, were $69.5 million in the third quarter, compared to $61.1 million in the prior year quarter, an increase of 14%. B2B revenue increased 13% and B2C revenue increased 16% from the prior year quarter.
  • Decision Management Software revenues, which include FICO® Blaze Advisor®, FICO® Xpress Optimization and related professional services, were $27.7 million in the third quarter compared to $36.1 million in the prior year quarter, a decrease of 23%, due primarily to decreased license revenues of Blaze Advisor.

Outlook 

The company is updating its previously provided guidance for fiscal 2017 as a result of the impact of ASU 2016-09 on the current quarter to approximately:

During the quarter ended December 31, 2016, we adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-09 which addresses, among other items, updates to the presentation of excess tax benefits related to stock based compensation. Excess tax benefits are no longer classified as a reduction of operating cash flows. We have adopted changes to our condensed consolidated statements of cash flows on a retrospective basis. The impact to net cash provided by operating activities and net cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended June 30, 2016 was $16.1 million.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures



























To supplement the consolidated GAAP financial statements, the company uses the following non-GAAP financial measures: non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP EPS, and free cash flow. Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP EPS exclude the impact of amortization expense, share-based compensation expense, restructuring and acquisition-related, and adjustment to tax valuation allowance items. Free cash flow excludes capital expenditures and dividends paid.  The presentation of these financial measures is not intended to be considered  in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. 

















Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational decision-making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons.  Our management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance and liquidity by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of recurring business results including significant non-cash expenses.  We believe management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our performance when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods.  These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management's internal comparisons to historical performance and liquidity as well as comparisons to our competitors' operating results.  We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they allow for greater transparency with respect to key measures used by management in its financial and operating decision-making.
