“Our fourth quarter results marked a solid finish to an eventful year, as public sector demand remains strong and SaaS adoption continues at an accelerated pace,” said Lynn Moore, Tyler’s president and chief executive officer. “The Tyler team executed well with strong cross-division sales synergies and several multi-suite wins during the quarter. Even as our SaaS mix expanded to 86% of our new software contract value, we achieved organic growth (excluding COVID-related revenues) of 6.0% for the fourth quarter and 8.2% for the year. As expected, operating margins were pressured by the acceleration of our cloud transition, as well as an increase in R&D expense as certain development costs that we expected to capitalize were expensed.

"During 2022, we achieved notable milestones toward several key strategic initiatives. We integrated our payments teams and launched a significant go-to-market strategy for payments. We also leveraged our strong relationships across state and local agencies to expand our cross-sell opportunities. We made meaningful progress in our cloud journey through continued investment in cloud optimization and through a move to cloud-only deployment for many of our core solutions. Overall, the year was highlighted by significant wins, highly successful upsell efforts, and state enterprise renewals and expansions.

"Throughout the year, we demonstrated a balanced yet opportunistic approach across our business and with respect to capital allocation. While our bar is high for acquisitions, we maintain a strategic lens toward M&A opportunities and closed three transactions during 2022 that bring innovative and robust offerings to elevate our payments business and broaden our product suites. 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 $360 million, bringing our net leverage at year-end to 1.64 times proforma EBITDA.

"As we move into 2023, I've never been more confident about Tyler's long-term prospects. This is an important year in our cloud transition, and we expect to reach an inflection point with a significant decline in license revenue that is being replaced by valuable long-term recurring SaaS revenue. In addition to short-term revenue headwinds from this mix shift, operating margins are expected to trough this year with a return to margin expansion in 2024. As we discussed throughout last year, we will also experience revenue comparison headwinds due to the end of COVID-related revenues in the fourth quarter of 2022. We're pleased that our 2023 guidance reflects expectations for high single-digit organic revenue growth, excluding COVID-related revenues, and we look forward to reporting our progress on our growth initiatives throughout the coming year," concluded Moore.

As of February 15, 2023, Tyler Technologies is providing the following guidance for the full year 2023:

•GAAP and non-GAAP total revenues are both expected to be in the range of $1.935 billion to $1.970 billion.

•GAAP diluted earnings per share are expected to be in the range of $4.10 to $4.25 and may vary significantly due to the impact of stock incentive awards on the GAAP effective tax rate.

•Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share are expected to be in the range of $7.50 to $7.65.

•Interest expense is expected to be approximately $26 million, including approximately $4 million of amortization of debt discounts and issuance costs.

•Pretax share-based compensation expense is expected to be approximately $99 million.

•Research and development expense is expected to be in the range of $108 million to $110 million.

•Fully diluted shares for the year are expected to be in the range of 42.5 million to 43.0 million shares.

•GAAP earnings per share assumes an estimated annual effective tax rate of approximately 21% after discrete tax items including approximately $1 million of discrete tax benefits related to share-based compensation.

•The non-GAAP annual effective tax rate is expected to be 22%.

•Capital expenditures are expected to be in the range of $68 million to $70 million, including approximately $37 million of software development costs. Total depreciation and amortization expense is expected to be approximately $132 million, including approximately $91 million from amortization of acquisition intangibles.

GAAP to non-GAAP guidance reconciliation

Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share excludes the estimated full year impact of share-based compensation expense and employer portion of payroll tax related to employee stock transactions of approximately $99 million, and amortization of acquired software and intangible assets of approximately $91 million.

Additionally, the non-GAAP tax rate of 22.0% is estimated periodically as described below under "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" and excludes approximately $1 million of estimated discrete tax benefits that are included in the GAAP estimated annual effective tax rate.

More information about Tyler Technologies, an S&P 500 company headquartered in Plano, Texas, can be found at tylertech.com.

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 revenues, 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, and free cash flow. 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 write-downs of acquisition-related deferred revenue, 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 asset write-offs.

Tyler's non-GAAP tax rate for 2022 was 22.5% and for 2023 is 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.

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) the continuing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, including its potential effects on the economic environment, our customers and our operations, as well as any changes to federal, state or local government laws, regulations or orders in connection with the pandemic; (2) changes in the budgets or regulatory environments of our clients, primarily local and state governments, that could negatively impact information technology spending; (3) disruption to our business and harm to our competitive position resulting from cyber-attacks and security vulnerabilities; (4) our ability to protect client information from security breaches and provide uninterrupted operations of data centers; (5) our ability to achieve growth or operational synergies through the integration of acquired businesses, while avoiding unanticipated costs and disruptions to existing operations; (6) material portions of our business require the internet infrastructure to be adequately maintained; (7) 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; (8) general economic, political and market conditions, including inflation and changes in interest rates; (9) technological and market risks associated with the development of new products or services or of new versions of existing or acquired products or services; (10) 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; (11) 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 (12) costs of compliance and any failure to comply with government and stock exchange regulations. A detailed discussion of 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.
