Subscription revenue increased 32.6% year-over-year and was 71.2% of total recurring revenue compared to 65.5% of total recurring revenue in the second quarter of fiscal 2026.
  • Gross margin was 64.6% in the fiscal 2027 second quarter compared to 61.7% in the comparable prior-year period.
  • Net income in the fiscal 2027 second quarter was $13.2 million, $0.46 per diluted share, compared to $11.7 million, $0.41 per diluted share, in the comparable prior-year period.
  • Adjusted EBITDA (non-GAAP) was $24.1 million compared to $16.4 million in the comparable prior-year period (reconciliation included in financial tables).

  • Free cash flow (non-GAAP) in the fiscal 2027 second quarter was $14.8 million compared to free cash flow of $15.0 million in the fiscal 2026 second quarter (reconciliation included in financial tables). Ending cash balance was $137.6 million compared to ending cash balance of $116.9 million as of fiscal 2026 year-end.

Ramesh Srinivasan, President and CEO of Agilysys, commented, “Revenue was a record $93.4 million during Q2 Fiscal 2027, the 19th consecutive record revenue quarter, driven by subscription growth of 32.6%.

Q2 Fiscal 2027 one-time product revenue was higher than expected as the hospitality industry continues to increase its investments in modern point of sale (POS) technology solutions. The industry also continues to move forward in earnest to implement the modern, cloud-native ecosystem of software solutions that allows them to improve operational efficiencies and deliver great guest experiences. Q2 Fiscal 2027 was yet another record sales quarter, the best ever Q2 July to September sales period, keeping total backlog at record levels despite strong implementation and delivery results.

The business continues to grow ahead of our previous expectations. As a result, we are once again raising full fiscal year  total annual revenue guidance to now be in the range of $374 million to $378 million, driven among other things, by an increase in subscription revenue growth, now expected to increase by at least 34% year over year. We expect full fiscal year Adjusted EBITDA to be 25% of revenue, higher than the prior expectation of 24%,” Srinivasan concluded.

Fiscal 2027 Outlook

The Company is raising full year subscription revenue growth guidance of at least 32% year-over-year to at least 34% and full year fiscal 2027 total revenue to be $374 million to $378 million. Adjusted EBITDA expectations are also increasing to 25% of revenue for the full fiscal year.

Dave Wood, Chief Financial Officer, commented, “The second quarter of the fiscal year has continued to yield strong results. The teams are continuing to execute at elevated levels across the board, driven by a sustained high level of sales demand and project implementation velocity. We are pleased to be in a position once again to increase our full year expectations as a result of this continued momentum. The company is well positioned to continue to execute against the current forecasted plan during the second half of the fiscal year.”

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 2027 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, 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.
