Cancels Upcoming Fourth Quarter Conference Call in Light of Pending Transaction with Tyler Technologies
NIC Inc. (Nasdaq: EGOV), a leading digital government solutions and payments company, announced results for the fourth quarter of 2020 that ended December 31, 2020, as compared to the fourth quarter of 2019.
Additional Fourth Quarter Financial Highlights:
Operational Highlights:
The Illinois Department of Agriculture awarded the Company a contract to provide its cannabis licensing solution for the state of Illinois through 2024.
In addition to this award, several of the Company’s long-term government partners recently extended their relationships with the Company:
During the fourth quarter of 2020, TourHealth provided testing services to the states of Florida, South Carolina and Kansas, as well as the Alabama Department of Corrections and the University of Mississippi. Beginning in the first quarter of 2021, TourHealth began testing legislators, staff and media at the Capitol building in Carson City, Nevada. The TourHealth team has also partnered with Delta airlines to test passengers and staff of international flights initially at the Detroit Metropolitan Airport and the Minneapolis−Saint Paul International Airport.
“I am very proud of our very strong financial performance in the fourth quarter of 2020,” said Harry Herington, NIC CEO and Chairman of the Board. “These results are a testament to the dedication and focus of our employees and our federal, state and local partners, who worked tirelessly to provide essential government services and introduce new critical solutions to citizens and businesses alike, all in the midst of a global pandemic.”

Non-GAAP Measures
In addition to the results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company presents non-GAAP financial measures, such as adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income excluding interest, income tax expense, depreciation & amortization, stock-based compensation and other significant non-operating or non-recurring items that are considered expenses or income under U.S. GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA margin is defined as adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenues. These measures should be used in addition to, and not as a substitute for, revenues, operating income, operating income margin, net income, earnings per share or other measures of profitability, liquidity or other performance measures computed in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company believes the presentation of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin is useful to investors and other users as these measures represent key supplemental information to compare and evaluate the Company's core underlying business results over time and with other companies. The non-GAAP measures used by the Company may not be comparable to similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies. The attached schedule provides a full reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures. Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin represent performance measures and are not intended to represent liquidity measures.

Executive severance expense of $2.6 million related to the departure of the Company's former Chief Operating Officer in the first quarter of 2019 is included in selling & administrative expense in the consolidated statements of income and financial summary for the twelve months ended December 31, 2019. These costs consisted of a one-time cash payment of $1.5 million and $1.1 million of stock-based compensation expense associated with the accelerated vesting of certain restricted stock awards. These costs were excluded from Adjusted EBITDA because the Company does not regard these costs as reflective of normal recurring costs to operate its business.
