    NORCROSS, Ga., Aug. 03, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CoreCard Corporation [NYSE: CCRD], the leading provider of innovative credit technology solutions and processing services to the financial technology and services market, announced today its financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2022.

    "CoreCard’s strong performance continued in the second quarter and resulted in total revenue of $15.2 million in-line with our expectations,” said Leland Strange, CEO of CoreCard Corporation. "Our significant top-line growth was driven by 25% growth in professional services revenue and processing and maintenance revenue growth of 8%. Additionally, we achieved a new license tier as discussed on our last earnings call which resulted in $1.8 million of license revenue in the second quarter. We continue to invest in our platform and processing capabilities, which are showing encouraging results. CoreCard provides a best-in-class credit platform that is extremely well positioned to capture the growing demand for next-generation card management platforms by large and complex modern card issuers."

    Mr. Strange continued, "Due to solid performance during the first half of 2022, we are confident in top-line growth expectations of at least 30% for fiscal 2022, compared to our previously provided guidance of a range of 25% to 30%. The opportunity ahead of us is significant, and CoreCard remains a growth business focused on meeting the evolving needs of modern issuers while generating long-term value for our shareholders."
