Filed April 29, 2013For Securities:FICO

Summary

Fair Isaac Corporation (FICO) reported its first quarter 2013 results, showing a 12% increase in total revenues to $179.3 million compared to the same period last year. This growth was primarily driven by the Applications segment, which saw a 22% increase in revenue, boosted by acquisitions and strong performance in mobility and fraud solutions. Despite revenue growth, net income for the quarter decreased by 8% to $18.5 million, or $0.51 per diluted share, primarily due to increased operating expenses, including higher cost of revenues and selling, general, and administrative costs, largely influenced by recent acquisitions. The company maintained a strong liquidity position with $131.2 million in cash and cash equivalents and an undrawn revolving line of credit.

Frequently Asked Questions

Revenue growth was primarily driven by the Applications segment, which saw a 22% increase year-over-year. This growth was significantly boosted by recent acquisitions, particularly in mobility solutions (due to the Adeptra acquisition) and fraud solutions (driven by a large multi-year license transaction).

Net income declined by 8% primarily due to a significant increase in operating expenses. Cost of revenues rose by 21% due to higher third-party software/data costs and personnel expenses related to acquisitions. Selling, general, and administrative expenses also increased by 19%, driven by higher labor costs and acquisition integration expenses. Amortization of intangible assets also increased substantially due to recent acquisitions.

FICO maintains a strong liquidity position with $131.2 million in cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2013. The company also has an undrawn $200 million revolving credit facility. Management believes these resources, along with anticipated operating cash flows, are sufficient to meet working capital needs and upcoming debt obligations, including a $49 million principal payment due in May 2013.

FICO acquired CR Software, LLC in November 2012 for $29.6 million to strengthen its enterprise-class collections and recovery solutions. Subsequently, after the quarter ended March 31, 2013, FICO acquired Infoglide Software, Inc. for approximately $7 million to enhance its fraud detection, entity resolution, and social network analysis capabilities. These acquisitions are expected to contribute to future revenue growth and expand FICO's solution offerings.
