FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

JULY 25, 2013

QUALITY SYSTEMS, INC. REPORTS FISCAL 2014 FIRST QUARTER RESULTS

Lead Generation Increases 172 Percent Year-over-Year;

Pipeline Jumps Six Percent to $150.1 Million Quarter-over-Quarter

IRVINE, Calif. … July 25, 2013 … Quality Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:QSII) announced today results for its fiscal 2014 first quarter ended June 30, 2013.

The Company reported revenues of $109.5 million for the first quarter ended June 30, 2013, a decrease of seven percent when compared with $118.3 million for the 2013 first quarter. Net income for the fiscal 2014 first quarter was $12.9 million, a decrease of 16 percent versus net income of $15.5 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2013. Fully diluted earnings per share for the fiscal 2014 first quarter was $0.22, a decline of 15 percent from $0.26 reported in the first quarter of the last fiscal year.

During the quarter, the Company saw considerable advancement in lead generation, which grew 172 percent year-over-year. Additionally, Quality Systems is seeing significant growth in its sales pipeline for the first time in several quarters, which jumped to $150.1 million, a six percent improvement versus the prior quarter. These two key metrics, along with a reduction in total operating expenses, are signs that the restructuring efforts the Company implemented in late fiscal 2013 — which included consolidation of its sales and marketing efforts, cross selling of services and solutions as well as the centralization of shared services — are beginning to show positive momentum. Revenue from the Company’s Revenue Cycle Management (RCM) and Electronic Data Interface (EDI) services grew 11 percent and 21 percent, respectively, in the fiscal 2014 first quarter compared with the same period last year, as clients continue to recognize the benefits of such services amid changing healthcare models and healthcare reform.

“Our management team is greatly encouraged that our restructuring plan is beginning to bear fruit. The bottom line is that our leads are up, our pipeline is up and our operating expenses are down,” explained Steven T. Plochocki, Quality Systems’ President and Chief Executive Officer.

“As the healthcare information technology sector continues to rapidly evolve and new models arise, we play a key role in helping our clients adapt. Quality Systems is now the only company to have

achieved Stage 2 Meaningful Use (MU) certification for physicians, dentists and hospitals. In fact, the Company ranks among the top four for MU attestations for physicians, and is one of only four organizations in the top 12 for attestations for both the inpatient and ambulatory markets. Moreover, according to CMS, in the first quarter of this calendar year, NextGen Healthcare ranked number one in terms of improvement for new physicians reaching attestation, and also ranked number one in client retention rate, at 87 percent. We are leading the way in the marketplace by assisting our clients in reaching important industry milestones necessary to their success. Our efforts in this area continue to be a priority for our entire organization,” Plochocki concluded.

Quality Systems also announced that its Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of Seventeen and One-Half Cents ($0.175) per share on the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock, payable to shareholders of record as of September 13, 2013 with an anticipated distribution date of October 4, 2013. The $0.175 per share cash dividend is pursuant to the Company’s current policy to pay a regular quarterly dividend on the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock, subject to further Board review and approval, and establishment of record and distribution dates by the Board prior to the declaration and payment of each such quarterly dividend.

SAFE HARBOR PROVISIONS FOR FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This news release may contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including but not limited to, statements regarding future events, developments, the Company’s future performance, as well as management’s expectations, beliefs, intentions, plans, estimates or projections relating to the future (including, without limitation, statements concerning revenue, net income and earnings per share). Risks and uncertainties exist that may cause the results to differ materially from those set forth in these forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause the anticipated results to differ from those described in the forward-looking statements are set forth in Part I, Item A of our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2013, including but not limited to: the volume and timing of systems sales and installations; length of sales cycles and the installation process; the possibility that products will not achieve or sustain market acceptance; seasonal patterns of sales and customer buying behavior; impact of incentive payments under The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act on sales and the ability of the Company to meet continued certification requirements; the development by competitors of new or superior technologies; the timing, cost and success or failure of new product and service introductions, development and product upgrade releases; undetected errors or bugs in software; product liability; changing economic, political or regulatory influences in the health-care industry; changes in product-pricing policies; availability of third-party products and components; competitive pressures including product offerings, pricing and promotional activities; the Company’s ability or inability to attract and retain qualified personnel; possible regulation of the Company’s software by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration; changes of accounting estimates and assumptions used to prepare the prior periods’ financial statements; and general economic conditions. A significant portion of the Company’s quarterly sales of software product licenses and computer hardware is concluded in the last month of a fiscal quarter, generally with a concentration of such revenues earned in the final ten business days of that month. Due to these and other factors, the Company’s revenues and operating results are very difficult to forecast. A major portion of the Company’s costs and expenses, such as personnel and facilities, are of a fixed nature and, accordingly, a shortfall or decline in quarterly and/or annual revenues typically results in lower profitability or losses. As a result, comparison of the Company’s period-to-period financial performance is not necessarily meaningful and should not be relied upon as an indicator of future performance. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

This news release contains certain non-GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) financial measures which are provided only as supplemental information. Investors should consider these non-GAAP financial measures only in conjunction with the comparable GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP measures are not in accordance with or a substitute for, U.S. GAAP. Pursuant to the requirements of Regulation G, the Company has provided a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measure in the accompanying financial tables. Other companies may calculate non-GAAP measures differently than Quality Systems, which limits comparability between companies.

The Company believes that its presentation of non-GAAP measures, such as Days Sales Outstanding (“DSO”), provide useful supplemental information to investors and management regarding the Company’s financial condition and results. The Company calculates DSO as follows: net revenue for the quarter is annualized (multiplied by four) and then divided by 365 days to yield an average daily sales amount. The balance of accounts receivable, net of any reserves for bad debts, is then divided by that average daily sales amount resulting in the DSO.
