Agilysys, Inc. (NASDAQ:AGYS), a leading global provider of hospitality software solutions and services, today reported results for its Fiscal 2026 third quarter ending December 31, 2025.

Summary of Fiscal 2026 Third Quarter Financial Results

Total net revenue increased 15.6% to a record $80.4 million compared to total net revenue of $69.6 million in the comparable prior-year period.
Recurring revenue (comprised of subscription and maintenance charges) was a record $52.0 million, or 64.7% of total net revenue, compared to $44.4 million, or 63.8% of total net revenue for the same period in Fiscal 2025. Subscription revenue increased 23.1% year-over-year and was 67.0% of total recurring revenue compared to 63.8% of total recurring revenue in the third quarter of Fiscal 2025.
Gross margin was 62.5% in the Fiscal 2026 third quarter compared to 63.0% in the comparable prior-year period.
Net income in the Fiscal 2026 third quarter was $9.9 million, or $0.35 per diluted share, compared to $3.8 million, or $0.14 per diluted share, in the comparable prior-year period.
Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) was $17.3 million compared to $14.7 million in the comparable prior-year period (reconciliation included in financial tables).
Adjusted diluted EPS (non-GAAP) was $0.42 per share in the Fiscal 2026 third quarter compared to $0.38 per share in the comparable prior-year period (reconciliation included in financial tables).
Free cash flow (non-GAAP) in the Fiscal 2026 third quarter was $22.7 million compared to free cash flow of $19.7 million in the Fiscal 2025 third quarter (reconciliation included in financial tables). Ending cash balance was $81.5 million compared to ending cash balance of $73.0 million as of Fiscal 2025 year-end.

Ramesh Srinivasan, President and CEO of Agilysys, commented, "Q3 Fiscal 2026 revenue was a record $80.4 million, the 16th consecutive record revenue quarter, with 15.6% year-over-year total revenue growth driven by subscription revenue growth of 23.1%. We are pleased to see the business momentum surge that occurred during the first half of Fiscal 2026 carry into the second half.

Mr. Srinivasan continued, "We continue to achieve excellent implementation execution progress in the field, resulting in Q3 Fiscal 2026 professional services revenue growing 22.0% over the prior year despite the holiday season and reduction of paid R&D related services revenue with a couple such projects having advanced to the implementation phase. Total backlog levels reduced slightly during the quarter. The current backlog calculations continue to exclude the major PMS project we are making good progress with."

"We remain comfortable with previous Fiscal 2026 full year guidance levels provided for year-over-year subscription revenue growth of 29%, excluding any subscription revenue contribution from the major PMS project, and Adjusted EBITDA of 20% of revenue. We are raising Fiscal 2026 total revenue guidance to $318 million, the higher end of the previous guidance range. Our visibility into the rest of this fiscal year and into Fiscal 2027 remains excellent," Mr. Srinivasan concluded.

Fiscal 2026 Outlook

The Company is raising its full year total revenue guidance to $318 million while reiterating Adjusted EBITDA at 20% of revenue for the full fiscal year and year-over-year subscription revenue growth of 29%. Subscription revenue growth expectations exclude any material revenue from the large-scale PMS project currently in progress.

Dave Wood, Chief Financial Officer, commented, "We continue to execute well on our fiscal year plan with business momentum continuing into the third quarter of Fiscal 2026. Backlog deployment remained strong during the quarter as the pace of implementations has continued to match or exceed sales velocity. Given the visibility into sales and our current backlog levels, we are well positioned to achieve stated guidance levels."

Forward-Looking Language

This press release contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as: "anticipate," "intend," "plan," "goal," "seek," "believe," "project," "outlook," "forecast," "preliminary," "estimate," "expect," "strategy," "future," "likely," "may," "would," "could," "should," "will" and similar references to future periods. Examples of forward-looking statements include, among others, our revenue, subscription revenue and Adjusted EBITDA guidance for the 2026 fiscal year.

Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance.

Our actual results and financial condition may differ materially from those indicated. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause our actual results and financial condition to differ materially from those indicated herein and in other filings and statements include, among others, the impact macroeconomic factors may have on the overall business environment, our ability to achieve our Fiscal 2026 guidance, maintaining sales momentum, the Company's ability to convert the backlog into revenue, and the Risk Factors described in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Company's reports on Form 10-K and Form 10-Q.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Information

To supplement the unaudited consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP in this press release, certain non-GAAP financial measures as defined by the SEC rules are used. These non-GAAP financial measures include EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income, adjusted basic earnings per share, adjusted diluted earnings per share and free cash flow. Management believes that such information can enhance investors' understanding of the Company's ongoing operations.

The Company has included the following non-GAAP financial measures in this press release: adjusted net income, adjusted basic earnings per share and adjusted diluted earnings per share. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide valuable insight into the Company's overall profitability from core operations before certain non-cash and non-recurring charges. The Company defines adjusted net income as net income before amortization expense (including amortization of developed technology), share-based compensation, other (gains) and charges, net, and legal settlements, net, less the related income tax effect of these adjustments, as applicable, at the Company's current combined federal and state income statutory tax rate and tax events as defined in the accompanying tables and defines adjusted earnings per share as adjusted net income divided by basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding.

See the accompanying tables below for the definitions and reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most closely related GAAP measures.
