Q4 FINANCIAL SUMMARY

Revenue in Q4 was $283 million, an increase of $59 million, or 26%, above the prior-year quarter.

New sales bookings, net of term extensions (SNET), increased 25% compared to the prior-year quarter. Excluding the contribution from Online Resources and Official Payments, SNET increased 13% in Q4, compared to last year's quarter.

Operating income was $86 million for the quarter, an increase of $10 million, or 14%, above the prior-year quarter. Q4 adjusted EBITDA of $117 million was 15% above the prior year's $101 million.

Net income for the quarter was $50 million, or $1.28 per diluted share, compared to net income of $50 million, or $1.24 per diluted share, during the same period the prior year. Operating free cash flow in Q4 was $62 million, up from $24 million in the prior-year quarter.

FULL YEAR 2013 FINANCIAL SUMMARY

Revenue for the full year 2013 was $865 million, an increase of $198 million, or 30%. The acquisitions of Online Resources and Official Payments contributed $144 million of GAAP revenue to the full year. Non-GAAP revenue for the full year 2013 was $871 million, up 26% from the prior year's $689 million. These figures include $6 million and $22 million, respectively, in deferred revenue not reportable under GAAP purchase accounting requirements.

New sales bookings, net of term extensions (SNET) for the year was $600 million, up 20% from $501 million in 2012. Excluding the contribution from Online Resources and Official Payments, SNET grew 7% compared to the prior year.

Operating income for the full year 2013 was $123 million, versus $74 million for the full year 2012. Non-GAAP operating income for the year was $155 million, up 21% from the prior year's $128 million. Adjusted EBITDA of $239 million for the year grew 25% from the prior year's $191 million. Non-GAAP figures include $6 million and $22 million of deferred revenue adjustments due to purchase accounting and exclude one-time acquisition-related expenses of $26 million and $31 million in 2013 and 2012, respectively. Excluding pass through interchange revenues of $38 million in 2013, net adjusted EBITDA margin represented 29% of revenue in the 2013, versus 28% in 2012.

Net income for the year ended December 31, 2013 was $64 million, or $1.60 per diluted share, compared to net income of $49 million, or $1.22 per diluted share, in the prior year. Non-GAAP net income for the year was $85 million, or $2.11 per diluted share, versus $84 million, or $2.10 per diluted share for 2012. Operating free cash flow for the year was $151 million, up from $24 million the prior year.

We ended the year with a 60-month backlog of $3.9 billion, adjusted for foreign currency fluctuations, up 24% from last quarter. Similarly, our 12-month backlog increased to $870 million. Official Payments contributed $696 million and $142 million to 60- and 12-month backlog, respectively.

As of December 31, 2013, we had $95 million in cash on hand, a debt balance of $755 million, down slightly from last quarter's $764 million. We repurchased $81 million of our stock during 2013.

INCREASING SHARE REPURCHASE AUTHORIZATION

Year to date in 2014, we have repurchased 930,000 shares for $54 million. In addition, ACI's Board of Directors has authorized an increase to its Share Repurchase Program of $100 million. Including this increase, we now have $156 million remaining on our share buyback authorization.

2014 GUIDANCE

We expect to generate non-GAAP revenue in a range of $1.06 to $1.08 billion for the full year and $220 to $230 million in the first quarter. Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be in a range of $290 to $300 million. This guidance excludes $13 to $15 million of one-time integration-related expenses and $2 million of deferred revenue haircut. Lastly, we expect full year 2014 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 acquisitions of S1, Online Resources and Official Payments 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 of viewing 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:

Non-GAAP revenue: revenue plus deferred revenue that would have been recognized in the normal course of business by S1 and Online Resources if not for GAAP purchase accounting requirements. Non-GAAP revenue should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, revenue.
Non-GAAP operating income: operating income (loss) plus deferred revenue that would have been recognized in the normal course of business by S1 and Online Resources, if not for GAAP purchase accounting requirements and significant transaction related expenses. Non-GAAP operating income should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, operating income.
Adjusted EBITDA: net income (loss) plus income tax expense, net interest income (expense), net other income (expense), depreciation, amortization and non-cash compensation, as well as deferred revenue that would have been recognized in the normal course of business by S1 and Online Resources if not for GAAP purchase accounting requirements and significant transaction related expenses. Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, operating income.

ACI is also presenting operating free cash flow, which is defined as net cash provided by operating activities, plus payments associated with the cash settlement of acquisition related options and significant acquired opening balance sheet liabilities, plus net after-tax payments associated with employee-related actions and facility closures, net after-tax payments associated with significant transaction related expenses, net after-tax payments associated with IBM IT outsourcing transition and termination, 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 services 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:

Maintenance fees are assumed to exist for the duration of the license term for those contracts in which the committed maintenance term is less than the committed license term.
License, facilities management, and software hosting arrangements are assumed to renew at the end of their committed term at a rate consistent with our historical experiences.
Non-recurring license arrangements are assumed to renew as recurring revenue streams.
Foreign currency exchange rates are assumed to remain constant over the 60-month backlog period for those contracts stated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar.
Our pricing policies and practices are assumed to remain constant over the 60-month backlog period.

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 for 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.
