Insights

The reported 21.7% growth in SaaS revenues and an overall 7.9% increase in recurring revenues for Tyler Technologies signifies a robust performance in the high-margin SaaS domain, which is a positive indicator for investors seeking stability in revenue streams. The emphasis on recurring revenue is particularly important as it suggests a predictable and sustainable business model, which is often rewarded by the market with higher valuations. Moreover, the company's ability to expand its SaaS mix to 89% of new software contract value indicates a successful transition towards a subscription-based model, aligning with broader industry trends.

The free cash flow increase of 17.1% in Q4 and the reduction of net leverage to under one times proforma EBITDA reflects prudent financial management and provides the company with strategic flexibility for future investments or shareholder returns. The substantial debt reduction in 2023 enhances the company's financial health and could be a positive signal for credit ratings and investor confidence. However, the slight decrease in free cash flow on a yearly basis warrants monitoring to assess if it's a temporary fluctuation or indicative of underlying trends.

From a market perspective, Tyler Technologies' landmark contract with the California Department of Parks and Recreation represents a significant vote of confidence from a large public sector client. This not only serves as a testament to the company's competitive positioning but also sets a precedent for future deals of similar magnitude. The strategic collaboration with Amazon Web Services is another critical development, likely to enhance the company's cloud offerings and potentially improve market share within the digital modernization space.

Given the company's focus on the public sector, the health of this market is a key driver for its performance. The reported elevated levels of RFP and sales demonstration activity suggest a robust pipeline of opportunities, which could translate into strong future revenue growth. However, it is important for investors to consider the cyclical nature of government spending and regulatory changes that might influence the company's growth trajectory.

From a legal standpoint, the mention of cash tax payments related to IRC Section 174 capitalization rules is noteworthy. This indicates compliance with recent changes in tax regulations that could affect the company's tax strategy and cash flows. Investors should be aware of such regulatory impacts, as they can have material effects on the company's financials. The proactive disclosure of these payments reflects transparency in financial communication, which is vital for maintaining investor trust.

Additionally, the completion of acquisitions like ResourceX and ARInspect for a combined purchase price of approximately $37 million demonstrates the company's strategic use of capital for growth through technological enhancement. Legal due diligence in these acquisitions is critical to ensure the integration of these new technologies aligns with existing product portfolios and does not introduce unforeseen liabilities or compliance issues.

“Our fourth quarter results reflected a strong finish to a pivotal year in our cloud transition and a return to year-over-year operating margin expansion,” said Lynn Moore, Tyler’s president and chief executive officer. “We achieved our key objectives for the year and both earnings and cash flow surpassed our expectations. Recurring revenue growth for the quarter was solid, highlighted by SaaS revenue growth of 21.7%, marking our 12th consecutive quarter of SaaS revenue growth of 20% or more. Free cash flow reached a new high for a fourth quarter and our SaaS mix expanded to 89% of new software contract value.

“We're pleased with the strength of new contract signings during the fourth quarter, including a landmark win with the California Department of Parks and Recreation for our integrated Outdoor Recreation platform, including payments. This transaction-based, self-funded eight-year contract is the largest transaction-based arrangement in Tyler's history. We're also excited to have signed our expanded strategic collaboration agreement with Amazon Web Services to further enable the growing adoption of Tyler's cloud-based mission-critical solutions and to support our public sector clients' digital modernization needs.

“During 2023, we excelled on many fronts executing our four-pronged growth strategy to drive predictable, higher recurring revenues and long-term margin expansion. We leveraged our unmatched installed base, broad suite of offerings, and strong relationships across local, state, and federal agencies to expand our cross-sell and upsell opportunities. We continued to take a balanced and opportunistic approach with respect to capital allocation and closed four strategic acquisitions, adding AI technology that can be leveraged across Tyler's product portfolio. We further strengthened our balance sheet and aggressively reduced our term debt with fourth quarter repayments of $90 million. For the full year, we reduced debt by $345 million, bringing our net leverage at year-end to under one times proforma EBITDA.

“We enter 2024 with tremendous optimism and confidence in the year ahead and beyond as we execute our strategy supporting our Tyler 2030 vision. The public sector market remains very healthy, as evidenced by our elevated levels of RFP and sales demonstration activity. We are on track with key initiatives around our cloud transition, including the migration of on-premises clients to the cloud and the planned exit from our proprietary data centers, and we expect to return to a trajectory of operating margin expansion in 2024,” concluded Moore.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Tyler Technologies has provided in this press release financial measures that have not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and are therefore considered non-GAAP financial measures. This information includes non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP earnings per diluted share, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow, and free cash flow margin. We use these non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing our financial results and believe they are useful to investors, as a supplement to GAAP measures, in evaluating Tyler’s ongoing operational performance because they provide additional insight in comparing results from period to period. Tyler believes the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing our financial results with other companies in our industry, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP financial measures discussed above exclude share-based compensation expense, employer portion of payroll taxes on employee stock transactions, expenses associated with amortization of intangibles arising from business combinations, acquisition-related expenses, and lease restructuring costs and other. Annualized recurring revenue (ARR) is calculated by annualizing the current quarter's recurring revenues from subscriptions and maintenance.

Tyler currently uses a non-GAAP tax rate of 22.0%. This rate is based on Tyler's estimated annual GAAP income tax rate forecast, adjusted to account for items excluded from GAAP income in calculating Tyler's non-GAAP income, as well as significant non-recurring tax adjustments. The non-GAAP tax rate used in future periods will be reviewed periodically to determine whether it remains appropriate in consideration of factors including Tyler's periodic annual effective tax rate calculated in accordance with GAAP, changes resulting from tax legislation, changes in the geographic mix of revenues and expenses, and other factors deemed significant. Due to differences in tax treatment of items excluded from non-GAAP earnings, as well as the methodology applied to Tyler's estimated annual tax rate as described above, the estimated tax rate on non-GAAP income may differ from the GAAP tax rate and from Tyler's actual tax liabilities.

Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP measures used by Tyler Technologies may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, which has been provided in the financial statement tables included below in this press release.

Forward-looking Statements

This document contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are not historical in nature and typically address future or anticipated events, trends, expectations or beliefs with respect to our financial condition, results of operations or business. Forward-looking statements often contain words such as “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “foresees,” “forecasts,” “estimates,” “plans,” “intends,” “continues,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “projects,” “might,” “could” or other similar words or phrases. Similarly, statements that describe our business strategy, outlook, objectives, plans, intentions or goals also are forward-looking statements. We believe there is a reasonable basis for our forward-looking statements, but they are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties and actual results could differ materially from the expectations and beliefs reflected in the forward-looking statements. We presently consider the following to be among the important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations and beliefs: (1) changes in the budgets or regulatory environments of our clients, primarily local and state governments, that could negatively impact information technology spending; (2) disruption to our business and harm to our competitive position resulting from cyber-attacks and security vulnerabilities; (3) our ability to protect client information from security breaches and provide uninterrupted operations of data centers; (4) our ability to achieve growth or operational synergies through the integration of acquired businesses, while avoiding unanticipated costs and disruptions to existing operations; (5) material portions of our business require the Internet infrastructure to be adequately maintained; (6) our ability to achieve our financial forecasts due to various factors, including project delays by our clients, reductions in transaction size, fewer transactions, delays in delivery of new products or releases or a decline in our renewal rates for service agreements; (7) general economic, political and market conditions, including continued inflation and rising interest rates; (8) technological and market risks associated with the development of new products or services or of new versions of existing or acquired products or services; (9) competition in the industry in which we conduct business and the impact of competition on pricing, client retention and pressure for new products or services; (10) the ability to attract and retain qualified personnel and dealing with the loss or retirement of key members of management or other key personnel; and (11) costs of compliance and any failure to comply with government and stock exchange regulations. These factors and other risks that affect our business are described in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the detailed “Risk Factors” contained in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K and quarterly report on Form 10-Q. We expressly disclaim any obligation to publicly update or revise our forward-looking statements.
