Factors to Note Ahead of Tyler’s Q1 Results

Tyler Technologies’ first-quarter revenues are likely to have been driven by the demand for its subscription-based software-as-a-service (SaaS) products as the public sector continues to shift from on-premise and backdated systems to scalable cloud-based frameworks. Our estimate for the company’s first-quarter Subscription segment revenues is pegged at $361.7 million, indicating a year-over-year increase of 15.5%.

Nevertheless, public sector entities’ transition to SaaS at an accelerated pace is likely to have affected TYL’s Software Licenses and Royalties segment revenues. Our estimate for the segment’s first-quarter revenues is pegged at $7.1 million, indicating an 18.7% year-over-year decline.

Our estimate for Professional Services’ first-quarter revenues is pinned at $64.5 million, indicating a year-over-year decline of 0.4%. Our estimate of $114 million for the Maintenance segment’s first-quarter revenues suggests a year-over-year decrease of 2.7%. Overall, our estimate for the company’s Total Subscriptions, Professional Services and Maintenance revenues, which include all four abovementioned segments, is pegged at $540.2 million. The figure indicates a year-over-year increase of 9.1%.

However, macroeconomic and geopolitical risks might have negated Tyler Technologies’ business during the first quarter. Still-high interest rates and persistent inflationary conditions are expected to have led public sectors to postpone procurement processes and lengthen sales cycles, which might have hurt the company’s top line in the quarter under review.

The acceleration in the shift to the cloud in the new business and the related decline in license revenues are likely to have weighed on operating margins.
