• Subsequent to the end of the first quarter, on April 30, 2018, Tyler completed the acquisitions of Socrata, Inc. and Sage Data Security, LLC for approximately $150 million and $11.5 million in cash, respectively, subject to certain post-closing adjustments.

“We are pleased that our first quarter results provided a strong start to 2018,” said John S. Marr Jr., Tyler’s chairman and chief executive officer. “Total revenues grew nearly 11 percent, led by 23 percent growth in subscription revenues. Since the beginning of 2010, we've achieved greater than 20 percent growth in subscription revenues in 31 of the last 33 quarters. Our operating margin was in line with expectations, as we

began to ramp up our discretionary R&D spend on projects we believe will further strengthen our competitive position and drive new revenues.

We are very excited about the acquisitions of Socrata, Inc. and Sage Data Security, LLC, both completed on April 30. These two additions bring to Tyler incredibly valuable expertise in areas that are top of mind with public sector entities - data and analytics and cybersecurity - and we welcome their clients and employees to the Tyler family. We've updated our full-year guidance to include the operations of Socrata and Sage for the last eight months of 2018. While Socrata will be dilutive to earnings for the balance of 2018, we expect it will be accretive in 2019. Our current outlook for Tyler's core business is positive, and even with the acquisition dilution, our guidance for non-GAAP earnings per share for the year is unchanged.” said Marr.

Guidance for 2018

As of May 2, 2018, Tyler Technologies is providing the following guidance for the full year 2018:

• GAAP total revenues are expected to be in the range of $933 million to $949 million.

• Non-GAAP total revenues are expected to be in the range of $939 million to $955 million.

• GAAP diluted earnings per share are expected to be approximately $3.34 to $3.44 and may vary significantly due to the impact of stock option exercises on the GAAP effective tax rate.

• Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share are expected to be approximately $4.73 to $4.83.

• Pretax non-cash, share-based compensation expense is expected to be approximately $55 million.

• Research and development expense is expected to be approximately $58 million to $60 million.

• Fully diluted shares for the year are expected to be between 40.0 million and 40.5 million shares.

• GAAP earnings per share assumes an estimated annual effective tax rate of approximately 10 percent after discrete tax items, and includes approximately $26 million of assumed discrete tax benefits related to share-based compensation.

• The non-GAAP annual effective tax rate is expected to be 24 percent. This was adjusted from 35 percent in 2017 primarily because of the impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.

• Capital expenditures are expected to be between $22 million and $25 million, including approximately $2 million related to real estate. Total depreciation and amortization expense is expected to be approximately $64 million, including approximately $41 million of amortization of acquisition intangibles.

GAAP to non-GAAP guidance reconciliation

Non-GAAP total revenues is derived from adding back the estimated full year impact of write-downs of acquisition-related deferred revenue and amortization of acquired leases of approximately $6 million. Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share is derived by adding back the estimated full year impact of non-cash share-based compensation expense and employer portion of payroll tax related to employee stock transactions of approximately $55 million, and amortization of acquired software and intangible assets of approximately $41 million. Additionally, the non-GAAP tax rate of 24 percent is estimated periodically as described below under "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" and excludes approximately $26 million of discrete tax benefits related to share-based compensation that are included in the GAAP estimated annual effective tax rate.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Tyler Technologies has provided in this press release financial measures that have not been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and are therefore considered non-GAAP financial measures. This information includes non-GAAP revenues, non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP gross margin, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP operating margin, non-GAAP net income, non-GAAP earnings per diluted share, EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA. We use these non-GAAP financial measures internally in analyzing our financial results and believe they are useful to investors, as a supplement to GAAP measures, in evaluating Tyler’s ongoing operational performance because they provide additional insight in comparing results from period to period. Tyler believes the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing our financial results with other companies in our industry, many of which present similar non-

GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP financial measures discussed above exclude write-downs of acquisition-related deferred revenue and acquired leases, share-based compensation expense, employer portion of payroll taxes on employee stock transactions, and expenses associated with amortization of intangibles arising from business combinations.

Tyler currently uses a non-GAAP tax rate of 24 percent. This rate is based on Tyler's estimated annual GAAP income tax rate forecast, adjusted to account for items excluded from GAAP income in calculating Tyler's non-GAAP income, as well as significant non-recurring tax adjustments. The non-GAAP tax rate used in future periods will be reviewed periodically to determine whether it remains appropriate in consideration o

f factors including Tyler's periodic effective tax rate calculated in accordance with GAAP, changes resulting from tax legislation, changes in the geographic mix of revenues and expenses, and other factors deemed significant. Due to differences in tax treatment of items excluded from non-GAAP earnings, as wells as the methodology applied to Tyler's estimated annual tax rate as described above, the estimated tax rate on non-GAAP income may differ from the GAAP tax rate and from Tyler's actual tax liabilities.

Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP measures used by Tyler Technologies may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies. Investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, which has been provided in the financial statement tables included below in this press release.

Forward-looking Statements

This document contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are not historical in nature and typically address future or anticipated events, trends, expectations or beliefs with respect to our financial condition, results of operations or business. Forward-looking statements often contain words such as “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “foresees,” “forecasts,” “estimates,” “plans,” “intends,” “continues,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “projects,” “might,” “could” or other similar words or phrases. Similarly, statements that describe our business strategy, outlook, objectives, plans, intentions or goals also are forward-looking statements. We believe there is a reasonable basis for our forward-looking statements, but they are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties and actual results could differ materially from the expectations and beliefs reflected in the forward-looking statements. We presently consider the following to be among the important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations and beliefs: (1) changes in the budgets or regulatory environments of our clients, primarily local and state governments, that could negatively impact information technology spending; (2) our ability to protect client information from security breaches and provide uninterrupted operations of data centers; (3) our ability to achieve growth or operational synergies through the integration of acquired businesses, while avoiding unanticipated costs and disruptions to existing operations; (4) material portions of our business require the Internet infrastructure to be adequately maintained; (5) our ability to achieve our financial forecasts due to various factors, including project delays by our clients, reductions in transaction size, fewer transactions, delays in delivery of new products or releases or a decline in our renewal rates for service agreements; (6) general economic, political and market conditions; (7) technological and market risks associated with the development of new products or services or of new versions of existing or acquired products or services; (8) competition in the industry in which we conduct business and the impact of competition on pricing, client retention and pressure for new products or services; (9) the ability to attract and retain qualified personnel and dealing with the loss or retirement of key members of management or other key personnel; and (10) costs of compliance and any failure to comply with government and stock exchange regulations. A detailed discussion of these factors and other risks that affect our business are described in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the detailed “Risk Factors” contained in our most recent annual report on Form 10-K. We expressly disclaim any obligation to publicly update or revise our forward-looking statements.
