Jack Henry & Associates Reports First Quarter Fiscal 2027 Revenue Growth
Financial technology firm Jack Henry & Associates reported an 8.8% increase in revenue for the first quarter, exceeding initial guidance.
Jack Henry & Associates announced total revenue of $701.5 million for the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2026, marking an 8.8% increase compared to the same period in 2025. The company’s operating income grew by 12.5%, while earnings per share rose to $2.28 from $1.97 in the previous year.
The performance was driven largely by growth in hosting services and expanded processing volumes as clients continue to adopt the firm's private cloud infrastructure. CEO Greg Adelson stated that the results exceeded internal outlooks provided in August, citing a strong sales environment and robust pipeline demand.
As of September 30, 2026, the company held $25.4 million in cash and cash equivalents, with $85 million in outstanding debt. The firm also returned capital to shareholders, executing $71 million in stock repurchases during the quarter.
Looking ahead, Jack Henry & Associates has maintained its full-year fiscal 2027 guidance, projecting revenue between $2.698 billion and $2.718 billion. This forecast assumes no acquisitions or divestitures for the remainder of the fiscal year.
