ACI Worldwide, Inc. Reports Financial Results for the
Quarter Ended September 30, 2021
Q3 2021 revenue of $317 million
Q3 2021 net new ARR up 50% versus Q3 2020
Raising full year 2021 guidance
MIAMI, FL — November 4, 2021 — ACI Worldwide (NASDAQ: ACIW), a leading global provider of real-time digital payment software, t oday announced financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2021.
“ACI delivered a solid third quarter, continuing a string of quarterly financial results within our guidance range,” said Odilon Almeida, president and CEO of ACI Worldwide.
“This has been an important year in our transformation. We have streamlined our organization, sharpened our go-to-market, and continued our focus on ensuring customers remain at the center of what we do. As we near the end of 2021, these efforts show positive results, and I am pleased with our progress,” Almeida continued.
“We have increased our full-year guidance, signed 99% of our guided 2021 full-year revenue and expect to achieve the Rule of 40 this year for the first time. All of this gives us high confidence in our increased outlook and indicates that the laser-focused execution of our three-pillar strategy – Fit-for-growth, Focused-on-growth, and Step-change value creation – is working. It sets ACI on a pathway towards predictable and profitable organic growth, shows consistent delivery of our financial promises, and makes us increasingly optimistic about our future growth prospects,” Almeida concluded.
THREE-PILLAR STRATEGY PROGRESS
Fit-for-Growth
Throughout 2020 and 2021, the company’s fit-for-growth pillar was about cementing the next steps in its evolution by changing its business approach, streamlining its organization, sharpening its go-to-market strategy, and focusing on discipline around costs and profitability improvement in an environment of COVID-19 pressures.
In optimizing the organization, ACI sourced annual cost savings of $60 million and bolstered the commercial function, increasing its customer-facing salesforce. The revamped salesforce is already generating success. For example, roughly one-third of the company’s pipeline in the Bill Payment segment originates from recent hires.
These actions contributed to adjusted EBITDA growth of 17% and increased net adjusted EBITDA margin by more than 450 basis points in 2020.

Focused-on-Growth
The company’s focused-on-growth initiatives prioritize investments in digital transformation aligned with the payment modernization agendas of customers. These initiatives continue to focus on real-time payments and investments in “last mile”, global merchants with a particular focus on innovation in Omni-commerce, and emerging markets.
These efforts have boosted sales bookings, with net new ARR bookings up 50% from the third quarter of 2021. The ARR in the Americas nearly doubled from the previous year. The company has already signed 96% of its expected revenue for the fourth quarter or 99% of the guided revenue for the full year. The company’s revised guidance projects 5% organic revenue growth and 6-7% EBITDA growth in 2021.
Step-Change, Value Creation
The company’s endeavors in its third pillar, step-change value creation through M&A, are also ongoing. The company continues to review its business portfolio and M&A opportunities with a focus on exploring all options to maximize shareholder value in the short and long term.
Q3 2021 FINANCIAL RESULTS
Net new ARR bookings were up 50% from the third quarter last year, with wins recorded in all three business segments across multiple geographies. Many of these wins are from established global, regional, and national organizations -- from corporations to central governments. Fintech companies, including cryptocurrency and Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) providers, are also procuring ACI services.
Recurring revenue was $245 million, up 1% from Q3 2020. Total revenue in the quarter was $317 million, up slightly from Q3 2020.
•Bank segment recurring revenue increased 2% and Bank segment adjusted EBITDA decreased 6%, versus Q3 2020.
•Merchant segment recurring revenue increased 11% and Merchant segment adjusted EBITDA decreased 25%, versus Q3 2020.
•Biller segment recurring revenue declined 2%, and Biller segment adjusted EBITDA decreased 6%, versus Q3 2020.
Total adjusted EBITDA in the quarter was $74 million compared to $87 million in Q3 2020, primarily due to the timing of non-recurring, high-margin license renewals. Net adjusted EBITDA margin was 32% in the quarter, compared to 38% in Q3 2020. Net income in the quarter of $14 million declined compared to $16 million in Q3 2020.
Cash flows from operating activities in the quarter were $40 million, down from $67 million in Q3 2020. ACI ended the quarter with $141 million in cash on hand and nearly $500 million available on its credit facility after paying down $35 million in debt in the quarter.
INCREASING 2021 GUIDANCE
For the full year of 2021, ACI now expects revenue to be in a range of $1.355 billion to $1.360 billion, up from a range of $1.335 billion to $1.345 billion. The company expects adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $380 million to $385 million, which is at the higher end of the previous guidance range.

The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to our GAAP results and are not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.

•Diluted EPS adjusted for non-cash and significant transaction related items: diluted EPS plus tax effected significant transaction related items, amortization of acquired intangibles and software, and non-cash stock-based compensation. Diluted EPS adjusted for non-cash and significant transaction related items should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, diluted EPS.
•Recurring revenue: revenue from software as a service and platform as a service fees and maintenance fees. Recurring revenue should be considered in addition to, rather than as a substitute for, total revenue.
