FINANCIAL SUMMARY

Financial Results for Q1

Overall sales bookings, including term extensions, increased 23% compared to the prior year quarter. New sales bookings, net of term extensions (SNET), decreased 9% compared to the prior year quarter.

We ended Q1 with a 12-month backlog of $889 million and a 60-month backlog of $4.1 billion. After adjusting for foreign currency fluctuations, our 12-month backlog remained essentially flat and our 60-month backlog increased $30 million from Q4 2014.

Non-GAAP revenue in Q1 was $233 million, an increase of $11 million, or 5%, above the prior year quarter.

Non-GAAP operating income was $10 million for the quarter, up 45% from last year’s $7 million. Adjusted EBITDA of $37 million was up 16% from last year’s $32 million. Net EBITDA margin in Q1 2015 was 18% versus 16% margin last year, after adjusting for $31 million and $28 million of pass through interchange fees in Q1 2015 and Q1 2014, respectively.

Q1 non-GAAP net income was $2 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, versus a non-GAAP net loss of $2 million, or ($0.01) per diluted share in Q1 2014.

ACI ended the first quarter with $68 million in cash on hand. Following $42 million in net debt payments during Q1, ACI ended the quarter with a debt balance of $850 million. Operating free cash flow (OFCF) for the quarter was $39 million, up 159% from last year’s $15 million.

Reiterating Guidance (Adjusted for FX)

While our underlying guidance has not changed, we are updating our revenue range slightly to account for an incremental $10 million in foreign exchange headwinds. We now expect to generate non-GAAP revenue in a range of $1.04 to $1.07 billion for the full year, down from a range of $1.05 to $1.08 billion. This range continues to represent 3-6% organic growth after adjusting for foreign currency fluctuations. We continue to expect adjusted EBITDA to be in a range of $280 to $290 million. We expect to generate between $240 and $250 million in non-GAAP revenue in the second quarter. Lastly, we expect full year 2015 net new sales bookings to increase in the upper single digit range.

To supplement our financial results presented on a GAAP basis, we use the non-GAAP measures indicated in the tables, which exclude certain business combination accounting entries related to the acquisition of Online Resources Corporation and significant transaction-related expenses, as well as other significant non-cash expenses such as depreciation, amortization and share-based compensation, that we believe are helpful in understanding our past financial performance and our future results. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to our GAAP results and are not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. Management generally compensates for limitations in the use of non-GAAP financial measures by relying on comparable GAAP financial measures and providing investors with a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures only in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way to view aspects of our operations that, when viewed with our GAAP results, provide a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. Certain non-GAAP measures include:

ACI is also presenting operating free cash flow, which is defined as net cash provided by operating activities, plus payments associated with acquired opening balance sheet liabilities, net after-tax payments associated with employee-related actions and facility closures, net after-tax payments associated with significant transaction-related expenses, and less capital expenditures. Operating free cash flow is considered a non-GAAP financial measure as defined by SEC Regulation G. We utilize this non-GAAP financial measure, and believe it is useful to investors, as an indicator of cash flow available for debt repayment and other investing activities, such as capital investments and acquisitions. We utilize operating free cash flow as a further indicator of operating performance and for planning investing activities. Operating free cash flow should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, net cash provided by operating activities. A limitation of operating free cash flow is that it does not represent the total increase or decrease in the cash balance for the period. This measure also does not exclude mandatory debt service obligations and, therefore, does not represent the residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures. We believe that operating free cash flow is useful to investors to provide disclosures of our operating results on the same basis as that used by our management.

ACI also includes backlog estimates, which include all software license fees, maintenance fees and service fees specified in executed contracts, as well as revenues from assumed contract renewals to the extent that we believe recognition of the related revenue will occur within the corresponding backlog period. We have historically included assumed renewals in backlog estimates based upon automatic renewal provisions in the executed contract and our historic experience with customer renewal rates.

Backlog is considered a non-GAAP financial measure as defined by SEC Regulation G. Our 60-month backlog estimate represents expected revenues from existing customers using the following key assumptions:

Estimates of future financial results are inherently unreliable. Our backlog estimates require substantial judgment and are based on a number of assumptions as described above. These assumptions may turn out to be inaccurate or wrong, including, but not limited to, reasons outside of management’s control. For example, our customers may attempt to renegotiate or terminate their contracts for a number of reasons, including mergers, changes in their financial condition, or general changes in economic conditions in the customer’s industry or geographic location, or we may experience delays in the development or delivery of products or services specified in customer contracts which may cause the actual renewal rates and amounts to differ from historical experiences. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates may also impact the amount of revenue actually recognized in future periods. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that contracts included in backlog estimates will actually generate the specified revenues or that the actual revenues will be generated within the corresponding 60-month period.

Backlog should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, reported revenue and deferred revenue.
