Weber joined FICO in 2003, and currently serves as the company’s vice president – treasurer, tax and investor relations. During his nearly 20-year career at FICO, he has served as head of FP&A and has led several public bond issuances, managed syndicated bank lending, stewarded due diligence and integration for mergers and acquisitions and guided strategic financial planning.

“Steve is an accomplished executive with a track record of solid performance across all the major finance, accounting and investor relations functions at FICO,” said Will Lansing, FICO’s chief executive officer. “Steve has earned the respect and confidence of the investor community over many years. His knowledge of FICO’s business and nearly two decades of experience across related functions, coupled with our deep bench of talented finance leaders, will support the continued execution of our financial priorities as we conduct a search for our next CFO.

I would also like to thank Mike for his leadership and stewardship over the past three years. We wish him well in his next role.

In fiscal year 2022, FICO reported record revenues, GAAP net income, free cash flow and market capitalization and we remain confident in our outlook.”

The company will release its results for the first quarter of fiscal 2023 in late January. FICO is reiterating its previously issued guidance for fiscal 2023, which was provided on November 9, 2022, adjusted for the transition of its Siron compliance solutions to partner IMTF, as announced on November 15, 2022.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement the consolidated GAAP financial statements, the company uses the non-GAAP financial measures, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP EPS. Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP EPS exclude, to the extent applicable, such items as the impact of amortization expense, share-based compensation expense, restructuring and acquisition-related, excess tax benefit, and adjustment to tax valuation allowance items. The presentation of these financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.

Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational decision-making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. Our management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance and liquidity by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of recurring business results including significant non-cash expenses. We believe management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our performance when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management’s internal comparisons to historical performance and liquidity as well as comparisons to our competitors’ operating results. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors because they allow for greater transparency with respect to key measures used by management in its financial and operating decision-making.
