Explanatory Note
ACI Worldwide, Inc. is filing this Amendment to its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2009 (“Form 10-Q”), as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on May 8, 2009. This Amendment is being filed solely to correct an inadvertent omission in Item 4, “Controls and Procedures.” The sentence, “Based upon this evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of that date,” has been added to the end of the first paragraph.
This Form 10-Q/A continues to speak as of the date of the Form 10-Q and no attempt has been made to modify or update disclosures in the original Form 10-Q except as noted above. This Form 10-Q/A does not reflect events occurring after the filing of the Form 10-Q or modify or update any related disclosures, and information not affected by this amendment is unchanged and reflects the disclosure made at the time of the filing of the Form 10-Q with the SEC. In particular, any forward-looking statements included in this form 10-Q/A represent management’s view as of the filing date of the Form 10-Q. Accordingly, this 10-Q/A should be read in conjunction with the original filing of our Transition Report on Form 10-Q.
As required by Rule 12b-15, under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, new certifications of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer are being filed and/or furnished as exhibits to this Form 10-Q/A.

Item 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Our management, under the supervision of and with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this report, March 31, 2009. Based upon this evaluation, our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of that date.
As of December 31, 2008, the Company reported a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting related to accounting for complex software implementation service arrangements in the Asia Pacific region. A material weakness is defined in Public Company Accounting Oversight Board Auditing Standard No. 5 as a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. In connection with our overall assessment of internal control over financial reporting, we have evaluated the effectiveness of our internal controls as of March 31, 2009 and have concluded that the material weakness related to accounting for complex software implementation services arrangements in the Asia Pacific region was not remediated as of March 31, 2009.
Except for the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting as referenced in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008, no other material weaknesses were identified in our evaluation of internal controls as of March 31, 2009.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Remediation plans established and initiated by management in fiscal year 2008 continue to be implemented. There were no other changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended March 31, 2009 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
While we have implemented or continue to implement our remediation activities, we believe it will take multiple quarters of effective application of the control activities, including adequate testing of such control activities, in order for us to revise our conclusion regarding the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting.
