Fair Isaac Announces First Quarter 2007 Results.

Total revenue of $208.2 million; Earnings per share of $0.52

MINNEAPOLIS -- Fair Isaac Corporation (NYSE:FIC), the leading provider of analytics and decision technology, today announced the financial results for its first quarter ended December 31, 2006.

First Quarter Fiscal 2007 Results

The company reported first quarter revenues of $208.2 million in fiscal 2007 versus $202.8 million reported in the prior year period. Net income for the first quarter of fiscal 2007 totaled $31.2 million, or $0.52 per diluted share, versus $28.5 million, or $0.43 per diluted share, reported in the prior year period. First quarter fiscal 2007 results included a $2.3 million tax benefit arising from adjustments to income tax reserves resulting from the conclusion of a tax audit and the extension of the Federal Research Tax Credit.

"We are pleased with our operating results, earnings per share, and cash flows for the quarter, and appreciate the hard work of our employees in good expense management," said Charles M. Osborne, Fair Isaac's interim chief executive officer. "We are still not satisfied with our rate of revenue growth. The expected benefits from our change to the Integrated Client Network organization have been slower than anticipated as people settle into new roles within the structure. We remain steadfast that our vision provides long-term growth for our customers, shareholders and employees."

First Quarter Fiscal 2007 Revenues Highlights

Revenues for first quarter fiscal 2007 across each of the company's four operating segments were as follows:

* Strategy Machine[R] Solutions revenues were $110.7 million in the first quarter compared to $112.0 million in the prior year quarter, or a decrease of 1.2%, primarily due to a decline associated with mortgage, originations, and precision marketing products offset by an increase in revenues from fraud, customer management, and collections and recovery solutions.

* Scoring Solutions revenues were $44.9 million in the first quarter compared to $46.2 million in the prior year quarter, or a decrease of 2.7%, primarily due to a decrease in revenues derived from our PreScore[R] Service.

* Professional Services revenues increased to $38.4 million in the first quarter from $32.8 million in the prior year quarter, or by 17.0%, primarily due to an increase in revenues from analytics, fraud, and customer management consulting offset by a decline associated with collections and recovery implementation solutions.

* Analytic Software Tools revenues increased to $14.2 million in the first quarter compared to $11.8 million in the prior year quarter, or by 20.4%, due to an increase in revenues generated from sales of the Blaze Advisor[TM] product.

Bookings Highlights

The bookings for the first quarter were $72.1 million versus $127.8 million in the same period last year. The company defines a "new booking" as estimated future contractual revenues, including agreements with perpetual, multi-year and annual terms. Management regards the volume of new bookings achieved as one indicator of future revenues, but they are not comparable to, nor should they be substituted for, an analysis of the company's revenues.

"Our lower level of bookings this quarter reflects our emphasis on license and service sales," stated Mr. Osborne, "and these tend to carry a lower booking value."

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Highlights

Cash and cash equivalents, and marketable security investments were $271.7 million at December 31, 2006, as compared to $267.8 million at September 30, 2006. Significant changes in cash and cash equivalents from September 30, 2006 include cash provided by operations of $59.6 million, borrowings under the revolving credit facility of $70.0 million, and $30.8 million received from the exercise of stock options and stock issued under an employee stock purchase plan. Cash used during the first quarter of fiscal 2007 includes $5.1 million related to purchases of property and equipment and $154.5 million to repurchase common stock.

Outlook

The company expects revenues for second quarter fiscal 2007 of approximately $215.0 million and earnings per diluted share to be approximately $0.48. The company expects revenues for fiscal 2007 of approximately $870.0 million and earnings per diluted share to be approximately $2.15.

Organizational Announcement

The company also announced today that Andrew Cecere has stepped down as a board member, effective immediately, in order to devote more time to his new role at U.S. Bancorp. Mr. Cecere, who has been a board member since April 2004, was recently named vice chairman and chief financial officer of U.S. Bancorp, where he had previously served as vice chairman of wealth management.

"I want to extend my thanks to Andy for his contributions to Fair Isaac Corporation," said A. George Battle, chairman. "We are sorry to see him go, but all of us at Fair Isaac wish him well in his new position at U.S. Bancorp."
