FICO Announces Earnings of $0.55 per Share for Second Quarter Fiscal 2012



Revenue of $160 million vs. $153 million in prior year

MINNEAPOLIS, April 25, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- FICO (NYSE: FICO), the leading provider of analytics and decision management technology, today announced financial results for its second fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2012.

(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20111010/CG83314LOGO)

Second Quarter Fiscal 2012 Results

Net income for the quarter totaled $20.0 million, or $0.55 per share versus $7.7 million, or $0.19 per share reported in the prior year period, which included $0.20 per share of restructuring costs.

Second Quarter Fiscal 2012 Revenue

The company reported revenues of $159.5 million for the quarter as compared to $152.8 million reported in the prior year period, an increase of 4%.

"Our results this quarter were solid, driven by revenue growth in our Tools and Scores businesses," said Will Lansing, chief executive officer. "The operating leverage we have worked hard to establish is paying off, with net income and cash flow up significantly from a year ago. After my first 90 days, I've come away very impressed with the strength of our people, products, and prospects for even greater success."

Revenues for second quarter fiscal 2012 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 $96.1 million in the second quarter compared to $95.9 million in the prior year quarter.
  • Scores revenues, which include the company's business-to-business (B2B) scoring solutions and associated professional services, and the myFICO® business-to-consumer (B2C) service, were $44.4 million in the second quarter compared to $41.0 million in the prior year quarter, an increase of 8%, that included a large project conducted by a major customer utilizing historical B2B scores.
  • Tools revenues, which include Blaze Advisor®, Xpress Optimization and related professional services, were $19.0 million in the second quarter compared to $15.9 million in the prior year quarter, an increase of 19%, primarily due to an increase in Blaze Advisor® license sales during the quarter.

Bookings

Bookings for the second quarter were $78.4 million compared to $57.7 million in the prior year period. Bookings represent contracts signed in the current reporting period that will generate new future revenue streams. Management regards the volume of bookings achieved, among other factors, as an important indicator of future revenues, but they are not comparable to, nor should they be substituted for, an analysis of the company's revenues, and they are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties concerning timing and contingencies affecting product delivery and performance.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow

Cash and cash equivalents, and investments were $207.3 million at March 31, 2012, as compared to $256.7 million at September 30, 2011. Significant changes in cash and cash equivalents from September 30, 2011, include $83.5 million of cash provided by operations, $33.4 million from the issuance of common stock from share-based payment plans, $156.8 million used for repurchases of common stock, $13.4 million used for purchases of property and equipment, and $1.4 million of dividends paid.

Outlook

The company reiterates the previously issued guidance for fiscal 2012, which follows:


Fiscal 2012 GAAP Guidance

Revenue

$640 million -  $645 million

GAAP Net Income

$86 million - $89 million
