The company achieved third quarter revenues of $163.0 million versus $91.0 million reported in the third quarter of fiscal 2002, and in line with the company's previous guidance. Revenues for the nine months ended June 30, 2003 totaled $468.3 million as compared to revenues of $263.1 million reported in the same period last year. Net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2003 totaled $30.0 million, or $0.60 per share on 53.0 million diluted shares outstanding(1), compared with $14.4 million, or $0.41 per share on 35.2 million diluted shares outstanding reported in the same quarter last year. Net income for the nine months ended June 30, 2003 totaled $75.5 million, or $1.48 per share on 51.0 million diluted shares outstanding(1), compared with $42.1 million, or $1.17 per share on 35.8 million diluted shares outstanding reported in the same period last year. Results for the nine months ended June 30, 2003 include $2.6 million in merger-related charges, resulting from the HNC Software acquisition, which resulted in a negative three-cent(2) impact to diluted earnings per share during this period. "I'm very pleased with our quarterly results as we were able to hit our revenue and exceed our previous earnings guidance," said Tom Grudnowski, President and CEO of Fair Isaac.
