The consensus mark for earnings is pegged at $1.41 per share, suggesting an increase of 5.2% from the year-ago quarter’s reported figure.

Let’s see how things are shaping up for this announcement.
Jack Henry & Associates, Inc. Price and EPS Surprise
Jack Henry’s fiscal second-quarter results are likely to benefit from growing momentum in services and support categories. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for services and support revenues is pegged at $343.3 million, indicating growth of 6.3% from the year-ago quarter’s reported figure.
Strength across the Core segment due to continued migration from on-premise to private cloud and robust growth in its public cloud offerings is expected to aid the upcoming results. Increasing demand for the Jack Henry Platform, a single public cloud-native platform designed to run the entire financial institution, and the company’s growing technology modernization strategies might have been other positives. The consensus estimate for the Core segment’s revenues is pinned at $182.2 million, indicating a rise of 5.2% from the year-ago reported figure.
Strength across the Payments segment due to robust card transaction solutions and growth in its Enterprise Payment Solutions business is likely to have acted as a tailwind for the company in the quarter under review. Moreover, JKHY’s strong sales across Financial Crimes Defender and continued expansion of faster payments infrastructure, PayCenter, are likely to have driven its Payments segment in the to-be-reported quarter. The consensus mark for Payments revenues is pegged at $225.9 million, implying growth of 5.2% year over year.
The company’s diverse mix of solutions, including Banno, Financial Crimes Defender and Fraud & Risk Management Add-ons, is expected to have driven growth in the Complementary segment during the fiscal second quarter. The consensus estimate for Complementary revenues is pegged at $172.8 million, indicating a jump of 7.4% from the year-ago quarter.
