Oppenheimer Maintains a Hold Rating on Jack Henry & Associates (JKHY)


Oppenheimer analyst Glenn Greene maintained a Hold rating on Jack Henry & Associates (JKHY) yesterday. The company’s shares closed yesterday at $149.06.

Greene noted:

“JKHY reported solid in-line 3QFY19 results with revenue and EPS both directionally comparable to our estimates. Revenue/EBIT grew ~5/-1% Y/Y in 3Q (i.e., ex. termination fee comparisons, M&A, bonuses linked to tax savings). Organic revenue growth was directionally consistent with peers’ during the quarter. Management suggests that sales results again remained strong. JKHY generated ~$105M in FCF Y/Y, weighed down by higher 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.”
