Agilysys, Inc. (NASDAQ: AGYS), a leading global provider of hospitality software solutions that deliver High Return Hospitality, today reported operating results for its fiscal 2024 first quarter ending June 30, 2023.

Summary of Fiscal 2024 First Quarter Financial Results

  • Total net revenue increased 18.0% to a record $56.1 million, compared to total net revenue of $47.5 million in the comparable prior-year period.
  • Recurring revenue (comprised of subscription and maintenance charges) was a record $32.1 million, or 57.3% of total net revenue compared to $27.7 million, or 58.4% of total net revenue for the same period in fiscal 2022. Subscription revenue increased 27.4% year-over-year and was 52.2% of total recurring revenue compared to 47.4% of total recurring revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2023.
  • Gross margin was 59.0% compared to 60.0% in the comparable prior-year period.
  • Net income attributable to common shareholders was $1.1 million, or $0.04 per diluted share compared to $2.6 million, or $0.10 per diluted share in the comparable prior-year period.
  • Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) was $6.3 million compared to $6.7 million in the comparable prior-year period (reconciliation included in financial tables).
  • Adjusted diluted EPS (non-GAAP) was $0.18 per share compared to $0.21 per share in the comparable prior-year period (reconciliation included in financial tables).
  • Free cash flow (non-GAAP) in the fiscal 2024 first quarter was $(3.0) million compared to free cash flow of $0.0 million in the fiscal 2023 first quarter (reconciliation included in financial tables). Ending cash balance was $107.1 million, compared to ending cash balance of $112.8 million as of fiscal 2023 year-end.

Ramesh Srinivasan, President and CEO of Agilysys, commented, “We are pleased to report our sixth consecutive record revenue quarter at $56.1M, an 18% increase over the comparable prior year quarter. April-June Q1 of fiscal 2024 was our highest ever quarter across four major revenue categories - subscription revenue, overall recurring revenue, product and services revenue. Subscription revenue grew 27.4% year-over-year, while one-time revenue consisting of product and services revenue was 21% higher. Adjusted EBITDA was 11.2% of revenue, higher than our previous expectations for the first fiscal quarter.

Our growing competitive strength across product, services and support continues to drive good selling success. This was our best ever Q1 April-June sales quarter, measured in annual contract value terms. That selling success was matched well by improved services implementation efficiency, leaving backlog levels across product, recurring revenue and services at near record levels.

We remain confident of achieving the revenue, profitability and subscription revenue growth guidance levels provided for fiscal 2024. With respect to profitability, we expect the second half of the fiscal year to be significantly higher than the first couple of quarters. We are pleased with the continuing positive business momentum and have great reasons to be bullish about our short, medium and long-term performance.”

Fiscal 2024 Outlook

We are reiterating full year fiscal 2024 guidance of revenue to be $230 to $235 million, inclusive of 25% year-over-year subscription revenue growth and Adjusted EBITDA of 13% of revenue for the full fiscal year.

Dave Wood, Chief Financial Officer, commented, “We are happy with our best ever start to a fiscal year across almost all aspects of the business. Continuing sales expansion across both current and new customers, total backlog remaining close to record levels, increasing sales and marketing investments and improving product strengths, have us well positioned to achieve our fiscal 2024 financial plan. We are working through a couple of quarters of growth-related cost increase pressures and expect the second half of the fiscal year to return to normal profitability levels. We remain committed to executing well on disciplined growth fundamentals.”

Forward-Looking Language

This press release contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as: “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “goal,” “seek,” “believe,” “project,” “estimate,” “expect,” “strategy,” “future,” “likely,” “may,” “should,” “will” and similar references to future periods. Examples of forward-looking statements include, among others, our revenue, subscription revenue and Adjusted EBITDA guidance for 2024 fiscal year and statements we make regarding profitability being significantly higher in the second half of the fiscal year.

Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are based only on our current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding the future of our business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of our control. Our actual results and financial condition may differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause our actual results and financial condition to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements include, among others, the impact macroeconomic factors may have on the overall business environment, our ability to achieve our fiscal 2024 guidance, future revenue growth, the company's ability to convert the backlog into revenue, and the risks described in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Company’s reports on Form 10-K and Form 10-Q. Additionally, references to "record" financial and business levels in this document refer only to the time period after Agilysys made the transformation to an entirely hospitality focused software solutions company in FY2014.

Any forward-looking statement made by us in this press release is based only on information currently available to us and speaks only as of the date on which it is made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement that may be made from time to time, whether written or oral, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

To supplement the unaudited consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP in this press release, certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined by the SEC rules are used. These non-GAAP financial measures include EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, adjusted basic earnings per share, adjusted diluted earnings per share and free cash flow. Management believes that such information can enhance investors’ understanding of the Company’s ongoing operations.

The Company has included the following non-GAAP financial measures in this press release: adjusted net income, adjusted basic earnings per share and adjusted diluted earnings per share. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide valuable insight into the Company’s overall profitability from core operations before certain non-cash and non-recurring charges. The Company defines adjusted net income as net income before amortization expense (including amortization of developed technology), share-based compensation, convertible preferred stock issuance costs, and one-time charges including severance and other charges, impairments and legal settlements, less the related income tax effect of these adjustments, as applicable, and defines adjusted earnings per share as adjusted net income divided by basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding.

See the accompanying tables below for the definitions and reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most closely related GAAP measures.
