Greene wrote:

“JKHY reported solid 2QFY19 results with ~$7M and $0.02 of upside revenue and EPS, respectively. Revenue/EBIT grew ~9/12% Y/Y in 2Q (i.e., ex. termination fee comparisons, M&A, bonuses linked to tax savings). Organic revenue growth continues to sharply outpace peers, and aggregate sales again exceeded quota across each of JKHY’s three core brands, highlighted by 13 new core customer signings during the quarter (all selected outsourced model). JKHY generated ~$102M in FCF during 1H, down ~11% Y/Y, weighed down by high capex/cap SW. We await commentary on the sales/demand environment, revenue drivers, and forward outlook for FY19. Maintain Perform. Our estimates are under review.”
