Hi, everyone. Thank you for joining us for our Q1 2023 earnings call. I'm Justine Stone, Head of Investor Relations for SS&C. On the call with me today is Bill Stone, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer; Rahul Kanwar, President and Chief Operating Officer; and Patrick Pedonti, our Chief Financial Officer. Before we get started, we need to review the safe harbor statement.

A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to comparable GAAP financial measures is included in today's earnings release, which is located in the investor relations section of our website at www.ssctech.com. I will now turn the call over to Bill. Thanks, Justine, and thanks everyone for joining. You know, we started 2023 with pretty strong revenues, totaling $1.363 billion in adjusted revenue, up 5.2%, and our adjusted diluted earnings per share, while a little softer at $1.11, was within our range and was down 11.2% from last year. You know, rising interest rates, obviously impacted our earnings, we're in very good shape from a financial standpoint. You know, we had a lot of inflation too, especially in wages, that also put some pressure on our bottom line. Adjusted consolidated EBITDA was over $500 million again at $509 million, our EBITDA margin was 37.3%. First quarter with all the payroll taxes and healthcare expenses is normally the highest expense quarter we have. We do expect to begin to see a lot of cost savings from our Blue Prism digital worker deployment. We believe the digital workers will drive margins and serve as a hedge against inflation. We currently have over 40 processes live and are on track to achieve our 2023 productivity goals. Our first quarter adjusted organic revenue was up 1.9%. We saw good performance in alternatives in our Global Investor and Distribution Services business, retirement, and our institutional and investment manager segment. You know, we generated net cash from operating activities at $254.8 million for the three months ended March 31, up 38.9% over the same period last year. We paid down $44.6 million in debt in Q1, bringing our consolidated net leverage ratio to 3.38 and our net secured leverage ratio to 2.39 times of consolidated EBITDA. In Q1, SS&C bought back 2.3 million shares for $134.7 million at an average price of $59.19. Program to date treasury stock buybacks of $439.9 million for purchases of 7.8 million shares an average price of $56.34. We'll continue to target 50% of our cash flow to stock buybacks and 50% to pay down. You know, we still look at lots of M&A. While it remains disciplined and we have yet to see any movement on large-scale assets, although we did see the Deutsche Börse putting in a bid for SimCorp today. We do think we'll have opportunity for some tuck-in acquisitions before the end of the year. This April marks the fifth anniversary of the DST acquisition, which brought SS&C over $2 billion in revenue and a long list of large, sophisticated clients. While we have doubled the profitability, accelerating their revenue growth, took investments in the product, the service, and the leadership teams. We feel these investments are paying off, and our biggest prospects are currently in our KIDS and retirement businesses. We've all watched the volatility in the financial services sector, particularly U.S. banking, over the past few months. SS&C is a strong and diversified company, and we have seen limited impact to date. As always, we will support our customers, monitor the situation closely, and react as necessary. I'll now turn it over to Rahul to discuss the quarter in more detail. Thanks, Bill. Our business remains strong despite a volatile macroeconomic backdrop, with several of our business units improving their competitive positioning. Our alternatives fund administration business posted 6.6% growth in Q1, and now has assets under administration of $2.24 trillion. GIDS, which serves the world's largest asset managers, grew 3.6% this quarter. We've invested heavily in the leadership technology and service organization of this business over the last five years and continue to do so. We've won large customers over the past few years and entered into long-term contract renewals with others. These marquee names, including St. James's Place, Capital Group, Brooks Macdonald, JP Morgan, Vanguard, and most recently, Mine Super, provide a solid foundation from which to continue to grow. We have prioritized innovation and are working on dozens of new products and services across the company. Whether it be SS&C BrightLine for tax, SS&C Everywhere for data connectivity and insights, or SS&C Private Cloud for a purpose-built compute solution, these products solve important issues for our customers, give our employees creative ways in which to add value, and strengthen our business. I'll mention some key deals for Q1. A large U.K. wealth client embarked on a strategic project to move their international accounts to SS&C's Bluedoor platform. An alternative asset manager chose asOMS and FIXLink services after a comprehensive RFP process. A $30 billion in AUM private equity and real estate firm chose SS&C Fund Services. A current brokerage client chose SS&C's ALTSERVE solution to help scale and expand the client's offering in the alternatives market. A $80 billion real estate manager with a non-traded REIT chose a suite of SS&C's Fund Services and retail alt transfer agency services. We'll now turn it over to Patrick to run through the financials. Thanks. Results for the first quarter were GAAP revenues of $1,362.7 million, GAAP net income of $126 million, and GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.49. Adjusted revenues were $1,363.4 million. Adjusted revenues were up 5.2%. Adjusted operating income decreased 1.1%. Adjusted diluted EPS was $1.11, an 11.2% decrease over Q1 2022 due to the impact of higher interest rates on our debt. Adjusted revenue increased $67.2 million or 5.2%. Our acquisitions contributed $64 million. Foreign exchange had an unfavorable impact of $19.9 million or 1.5%. Adjusted organic revenue increase on a constant currency basis was 1.9%. We had strength in several product lines, including alternatives, the GIDS transfer agency services business, and institutional investment management business. Adjusted operating income for the quarter was $493 million, a decrease of $5.7 million or 1.1% from the first quarter of 2022. Adjusted operating margins were 36.2% in the first quarter, compared to 38.5% in the first quarter of 2022. Excluding acquisitions, expenses increased 5% on a constant currency basis. Acquisitions added $52 million in expenses, and foreign currency decreased costs by $19.6 million. Our cost structure has been impacted by general inflation, wage inflation, and an increase in business travel compared to 2022. Adjusted EBITDA was $509 million or 37.3% of adjusted revenue, a decrease of $5.9 million from Q2 2022. Net interest expense for the quarter was $111.9 million, an increase of $62.6 million or 127% from Q1 2022. The Q1 2023 net interest expense includes $3.5 million of non-cash amortized financing costs and OID. The average interest rate in the quarter for the amended credit facility, including our senior notes, was 6.21% compared to 3.11% in the first quarter of 2022. We recorded a GAAP tax provision of $52.5 million or 29% of pre-tax income. Adjusted net income was $284.4 million, and adjusted EPS was $1.11. The effective tax rate used for adjusted net income was 26%. Diluted shares increased to 257 million from 256.4 million in Q4. The higher average stock price was partially offset by share repurchases during the quarter. On cash flow and balance sheet, we ended the first quarter with $433.3 million of cash and cash equivalents and $7.1 billion of gross debt. SS&C's net debt, which excludes cash and cash equivalents of $130.2 million that are held at DomaniRx, was $6.8 billion as of March 31st. Operating cash flow for the three months was $254.8 million, $31.3 million increase from the same period of 2022. Some highlights on cash flow for the three months. We bought back treasury stock for $134.7 million and purchased 2.3 million shares at an average price of $0.5919. In July 2022, the board authorized the new stock repurchase program of up to $1 billion in stock buybacks. Program to date, treasury stock buybacks are $439.9 million for purchases of 7.8 million shares at an average price of $56.34. Net debt payments in the quarter were $44.6 million. We paid total of interest of $138 million in the quarter, compared to $74.2 million in 2022. Income taxes, in the quarter, we paid $20.9 million, compared to $42 million in the first quarter of 2022. Our accounts receivable DSO was 53.5 days as of March 31st, compared to 52.3 days as of December 2022, and 52.7 days as of March 2022. Capital expenditures and capitalized software was $53.1 million, or 3.9% of adjusted revenue for the quarter. Spending was predominantly for capitalized software to investment in research and development and IT infrastructure. Based on our net debt of approximately $6.8 billion, our total leverage was 3.38x, and our secured leverage was 2.39x as of March 31st. On outlook for the year, first I'll cover a few assumptions. You know, we'll continue to focus on client service, and we expect retention rates to continue in the range of most recent results. We have assumed foreign currency exchange will be at current levels for the remainder of the year. As a result, organic growth for the year will be in the range of 2%-6%. Adjusted organic growth for Q2 will be in the range of 0.5%-3.5%. We have assumed interest rates will increase an additional in the range of 35-50 basis points for the remainder of the year compared to the average rate in the first quarter. We'll continue to manage our expenses during the period by controlling variable expenses and increase productivity to improve our operating margins. We'll continue to allocate free cash flow to both debt pay down and stock buybacks, and we continue to expect the adjusted tax rate to be about 26%. For the second quarter of 2023, we expect revenue in the range of $1,334.5 million-$1,374.5 million. Adjusted net income in the range of $276.5 million-$293 million. Diluted shares in the range of 256.5 million-257.5 million. For the full year, we expect revenue in the range of $5,455 million-$5,655 million. Adjusted net income in the range of $1,190 million-$1,285 million. Diluted shares in the range of 255 million-258.5 million. On cash from operating activities, we expect that to be in the range of $1.275 billion-$1.375 billion. I'll turn it back over to Bill for final comments. Thanks, Patrick. You know, we expect revenue to accelerate through Q3, Q4, and we expect the growth to be broad-based across a lot of our different businesses, and we will be able to convert a bunch of backlog revenue. We have price increases that have already gone into effect, and so the revenue will begin to tick up and we also have a very full pipeline. You know, we have invested heavily in our product and service suite, and we remain excited about our opportunities. It's been a difficult way to get to here, but I think we're in really good shape going forward. I'll now open it up for questions. At this time, I would like to remind everyone, if you would like to ask a question, please press star one on your telephone keypad. We ask that you please limit yourself to one question and one follow-up. Your first question comes from the line of Kevin McVeigh with Credit Suisse. Your line is open. Great. Thanks so much, and congratulations on the results. When I look at the organic growth, it seems like it implies about 2% on average for the first half of the year, and then the midpoint is 4% for the full year. I mean, maybe just is it the same buckets pricing new business backlog and new products that drive that? Or is there maybe just to ring-fence that a little bit, what the incremental drivers are as we think about the back half of the year? Kevin, I think that's primarily what it is. I mean, we have a number of large-scale deals that we have sold over the last two or three years and, you know, it seemed like they were never going to come to fruition, but they are coming to fruition, and they are going live. With that releases a lot of revenue into our financial statements. As I said, we still have full pipelines, you know, with, you know, KIDS, which is our, you know, primarily our transfer agency business growing 3.6% in the first quarter. You know, that's quite a turnaround. So I think, you know, we're making progress across all of those things. I think that that's, plus the price increases are also starting to take effect. I think we're in reasonably good shape for the second half of 2023. That's terrific. Then just one quick follow-up. It seems like the AUA was actually up sequentially the first time about four quarters, and that's despite a, you know, some disruption interquarter across the markets. Any thoughts around that, what's driving that? Rahul, you want to take that? Sure. We had, you know, pretty good inflows into both our hedge fund and our private equity businesses during the course of the quarter. You know, it's a combination of new fund launches, some organic and performance-related growth in these clients, as well as new client wins. You know, as you know, it's kind of the first time we've seen that uptick in a few quarters and but, you know, we're pretty happy about it. But we do expect to see, you know, based on the comments Bill just made about the strength of our pipeline, you know, we're certainly seeing some momentum in the market. Great. I'd say also that we believe we remain, you know, the strongest competitor by somewhat. I think that there is a lot of volatility in that market and a lot of the larger scale investment managers prefer to have, you know, our steady hand. I think that's played out pretty well for us. Terrific. Thank you. Your next question comes from the line of Dan Perlin with RBC Capital Markets. Your line is open. Thanks. Good evening. Bill Stone, I wanted to just, you know, take your temperature in terms of discussions that you've had with your clients. This is obviously true for Rahul Kanwar as well. Kind of pre-SVB and post-SVB, you made it sound like there's not been any kind of fallout from that, and that's good to hear. I'm just wondering kind of the posturing of what they're saying. Understanding you have a backlog, and it's going to get converted, you've got these large clients, which I think is encouraging for organic growth. I'm just wondering where they sit today in kind of their readiness to release capital in order to drive new contracts with you guys. Yeah. As you noted, right, a lot of what we're expecting in the second half, we have already signed and are in the midst of bringing them live. It's really a continuation of the last, you know, 12, 18, 24 months. You know, but, you know, there's a lot of skittishness in the financial markets, particularly the banking markets. You know, while we don't have a huge client base in mid-level banks, we do have some. So, you know, we're monitoring that as closely as we can. You know, you do kind of see that, you know, whether it's Silicon Valley or First Republic, or Signature, that you're really kind of on the mid-spot between traditional banking and, you know, financing venture capital and other investments. I'm not sure that the contagion is quite as, you know. I don't think it's anything like 2008, 2009, and I think that's why it hasn't had much impact on us to date. You know, of course, we'll watch it as closely as we can. Yep. Just a quick follow-up on the, I guess the commentary around digital workers you had in the release. It seems like you're reiterating this 1,300-2,700. Can you just remind us where that sits in terms of, you know, cost savings? I think we had allocated something like $65 million at the low end of that range for, you know, annualized cost savings. I just want to take your temperature on where we sit on that as well. Thank you. No, I mean, you're hitting the nail on the head, Dan. $65 million. You know, we're estimating about 1,000 in savings as we deploy digital workers per worker. You know, knock on wood, that's pretty much what we see. In some cases, the improvement in productivity is drastic. While we're very optimistic that, you know, if we keep our nose to the grindstone and, you know, build great digital workers, we'll have a great outcome. That's what people are focused on. Excellent. Thank you, Bill. Your next question comes from the line of Andrew Schmidt with Citi. Your line is open. Hey, Bill and Rahul. Patrick. Thanks for taking my questions. Wanted to ask about the KIDS business. Maybe just talk about just the nature of the investment and what you're doing there. That'd be helpful. The 3.6% growth, you know, positive flip much better than we were anticipating. Could you just sort of disaggregate that and maybe talk about the drivers there, whether it's existing client growth, you know, new client launches, things like that? Just curious to understand the drivers a little bit more there. Thanks a lot. Well, that, you know, the, you know, we named it the Global Investor and Distribution Services. It's, you know, the largest investment managers in the world use that service. You know, we always felt that if you could deliver a better, you know, a better interface, a better client, interaction with the system and really had good process and procedures that there was opportunity all over the place because we didn't think our competitors would do the same thing. You know, while it might have taken us a little longer than we had hoped, we do think that we have built some, you know, purpose-built software that is easier to use and is getting, you know, much more client satisfaction. We've had any number of large scale wins and large scale renewals that has really helped the revenue side. I don't know if, Rahul, you have anything else to add to that? Just on the investments. You know, the investments have been kinda in really all aspects of that business. We, we have invested heavily in the technology to the point Bill just made. You know, digital interface, web interface, mobile apps, just workflow and systems. We, we have also, you know, brought in a lot of sales talent, a lot of management talent. You know, I think that the key to all of this is that the large clients that we have won over the last six, nine months, we've, you know, kind of worked through that implementation process and they're coming alive and that's helping our numbers. Got it. Thank you for that. Then, you know, question on the just, I think, Patrick, you mentioned just wage inflation, and I just wanted to drill down on that a little bit. Is that, you know, more of a flow-through effect from actions you took last year, or you're seeing something more recently that's, you know, exacerbating the wage issue? Just wanna be clear in terms of what you're seeing about the cost of labor environment. Thanks a lot. Yeah. It's mostly actions we took post April 2022, that are impacting us in Q1 when you compare it to prior years. We're seeing and occurring here wage inflation slow down a little bit. Perfect. Thanks so much, guys. Appreciate the help. Your next question comes from the line of Alex Kramm with UBS. Your line is open. Yeah. Hey. Thanks, everyone. Just, maybe this is a follow-up for the question that was just asked, but, you know, margins in the quarter certainly missed, I think, street expectations on our own. Maybe we're just not modeling it right. I know you just talked about the wage inflation, but was there something else that you hadn't expected in the quarter that surprised you? Again, is it just, you know, the street not thinking about it correctly since you said the wage inflation should trade off in April? Then related to that, as we think about the remainder of the year, I guess, what gives you confidence that you can get that margin expansion that you had talked about on prior calls? Is it just the Blue Prism thing which is really gonna help the margins here, or is there something else that you're working on to make sure margins are meeting your targets? Well, you know, I think what, you know, the expense process, you know, was primarily, as Patrick said, the wage was from actions we took at the end of throughout 2022 really. I don't know that we were surprised, you know, as much as, you know, it all kinda came into the first quarter. You know, again, We're pretty confident on our ability to drive margins. Yeah, you know, I think, you know, 37.3% on adjusted EBITDA margins is, you know, down maybe 100, 200 basis points. I don't think that's. You know, We're very confident in our margin driving capabilities. What we want to make sure we do is invest in the people and the processes and the capabilities, you know, to go get the $65 million-$130 million in savings through Blue Prism. Then also constantly invest back in our products and services. As Rahul said, you know, we're really bringing out new things, whether it's Brightline or GoCentral or SS&C Everywhere or, you know, all those kinds of things that we think differentiate us and is the reason that we win most of the platform business that is out to bid. All right, fair enough. Then maybe a little bit bigger picture. There's been in the last quarter, last six months, whatever you wanna use, much more talk about, you know, AI, ChatGPT, et cetera. Just wondering how you view, you know, those capabilities in your own business. I think some people are arguing like, "Hey, you know, You may be able to do a lot with that." You know, maybe Blue Prism is in that same kinda sphere. At the same time, I think there's others who say like, "Hey, this could actually be super disruptive to your business." I know it's a big picture question for a call like this, just wondering how much time you're spending on that and what you're evaluating. Well, you know, Alex, I don't think that I don't think that FinTech in general has a very big moat. You know, almost anybody that's on this call can start a FinTech company. You know, you need to be able to have an idea. You need to be able to have some development talent to be able to deliver a product. Doing that and turning it into a $5.5 billion company with 100 offices in 40 countries and a suite of products and services that are pretty much world-class, that's a pretty big moat. That when companies such as UBS or any of the other great big investment banks or any of the great big hedge fund platforms or private equity platforms or private debt platforms or real estate organizations, you know, this is pretty sophisticated, pretty regulated, pretty minutiae, pretty detailed. I think that, you know, we've worked very hard to have the best people. We have the best training. We think we have the best solutions for our customers. I think that, you know, we moved quickly to buy Blue Prism. We believe that this intelligent automation and its, you know, corollaries in AI and machine learning and, you know, natural language processing and the rest of it is what's gonna happen. Either you get in front of it or you're so far behind that pretty much you're on the block. Fair enough. Thanks, guys. Your next question comes from the line of Peter Heckmann with D.A. Davidson. Your line is open. Thank you. I had a quick one on DomaniRx. Could you give us an update on the platform development there and whether or not you continue to think that you have a good shot at moving your one large prescription processing customer to the new platform in 2023? Well, I think our target, Pete, is 124, and I think that we're in reasonable shape. I know that we have had some DomaniRx board meetings. I know Rahul has been too, and, you know, we do, you know, pretty much constant updates on that platform. I would say we are cautiously optimistic. Rahul, you wanna comment further? Bill, I think you got it. You know, we're kinda on target with our development plans so far, and we're keeping a close eye on it. Okay, that's helpful. Just as a follow-up, I mean, how are you thinking about on the private equity, real estate, private asset side, how are you thinking about mark-to-markets there? Maybe just remind us how much of that part of the business relies on fixed minimums versus basis points? It's primarily basis points, Pete. There's some things that we do that are, that are piecemeal, whether that's K-1s and, you know, tax return type things and financial statements and. It's primarily a basis point charge. Okay. Just in terms of how that's worked historically, I guess, is would you expect there to be a six-month, 12-month lag in terms of, you know, when asset values change and when they start to update those values? Or do they do it, you know, really in more quarterly? Yeah, I'd say quarterly. Okay. We should be seeing it in the numbers already? Yeah. I think so. Yeah. All right. Thank you. Your next question comes from the line of Terry Tillman with Truist. Your line is open. Hey, guys. This is Joe Meares for Terry. Thanks for taking the questions. The first one that I had was just I wanted to confirm that I heard correctly that organic growth in the quarter for revenue was 1.9%. Then just curious what financial services organic growth was in the first quarter. I think it was 1.3% last quarter. Just curious if there was any inflection there. You're right that the total organic growth was 1.9. When you're referring to financial service, I assume you're referring to ex healthcare, right? That was 2.5% in the quarter. Okay. Perfect. Then just as a follow-up there, I think last quarter you'd mentioned that, your expectation for the healthcare market was for it to be down 10% in 2022. Just curious if there's any change in expectations there. No, that's approximately what we expect. Yeah, in 2023. 2023, right. Perfect. Thanks so much, guys. Appreciate it. Your next question comes from the line of James Faucette with Morgan Stanley. Your line is open. Great. Thank you very much. I wanted to touch quickly on M&A. In your prepared remarks, you made reference to acquisition in Europe, SimCorp today. Just wondering, you know, how you're thinking about valuations, what you're seeing in valuations, particularly as it sounds like you're trying to get some things done between now and the end of the year. Just basically, you know, you obviously have built a lot of value over the years via acquisitions. Just how are you thinking about that as an opportunity right now? Yeah, James, I would say it's pretty similar. I mean, everyone talks about that prices are maybe pausing. You know, it looks like at least the headline numbers on SimCorp is, you know, about 30 times EBITDA. It's not pausing very quickly, I would say. While I think that there are assets that are gonna be sold, I think the owners of those assets are gonna have to, in general, take some haircuts. I don't know that they're ready to do that yet. You know, I think SimCorp's kind of been on the market for a while. I think maybe the Bourse, you know, has some other assets that they wanna put together. You know, you know, I think that maybe was serendipitous for them. I don't know exactly, you know, where are we with FIS? Where are we with a few of the other assets that are out there. Some stuff ought to shake loose. I think the more that people care about their customers, the better opportunity we have. Got it. Got it. Then, you know, going back to looking at the second half ramp, it sounds like between, you know, some of the new contracts and pricing and some of the other things that you actually have pretty good line of sight into that acceleration. It doesn't sound like you're really dependent too much on macro, at least improving. Just wanna make sure that's I'm understanding that correctly and where there could be sensitivity if macro were to deteriorate a little between now and then? Yeah. I think that's a pretty accurate characterization of where we are. you know, I think the macro would have to, you know, deteriorate to the point where, you know, as someone said earlier, you know, has it made it to where people are not going to allocate capital in new systems or new processes. you know, as large scale financial institutions get under pressure, often their way to control costs is to outsource. That's really a pretty big strength of ours. We have any number of large scale conversations going on with very large scale organizations. We'll have our opportunities. You know, it's like always, you gotta execute. Got it. Thanks a lot for those comments, Bill. Your next question comes from the line of Alex Kramm with UBS. Your line is open. Oh, that was quick. Hello again. I just wanted to squeeze in a couple of follow-ups. One, and maybe you mentioned this, but, I think you said pricing has been solid. Can you be a little bit more specific what kind of pricing you've been realizing? You know, maybe you could actually say in what businesses you're maybe realizing more or less than maybe what the company average is? I just think, Alex, that, you know, we're looking at, you know, between $150 million in price increases realized in 2023. Probably the biggest ones are in alternatives and the GIDS business. Okay. Fantastic. Thanks for that. Just a very quick one here, just from an understanding perspective. You gave those numbers that you have done 40 process automations now, and you also talked about the 1,300 to 2,700 people. Can you just give us a little bit of a flavor, like when you talk about these 40 processes, like how many, how many people were you actually able to, I guess, reallocate or eliminate positions? Going forward, like again, like the 1,300 to 2,700, like how many processes is that? Just trying to get a flavor for, you know, how many things you're automating and how many, how, like per use case, how many people that it actually would affect. Yeah. I mean, it's a pretty broad range, right? If we can build the digital worker to do, you know, pretty sophisticated reconciliations, then we'll have all kinds of opportunities to deploy hundreds, probably. Whereas in some of the other things, even things that are pretty broad scale, there's maybe not as many things done, you know, like, validating 1065s and K-1s tax returns or, you know, validating investment statements. Because one digital worker can do so much work, you know, you don't really need to deploy that many. It's more of a one to many and many to many. You know, it's not very often that you have to deploy many to one, but it is something that the capabilities of the individual digital worker, the sophistication of the process is what determines how many and how fast. Okay. Fair enough. Maybe I'll follow up that. Just very quickly, just to squeeze one more in. On Blue Prism, since we're on the topic, the 10.9% growth, that's been decelerating over the last few quarters. I think originally when you bought the company, it was, I think 15+, maybe even in the 20s. Is that a sales cycle thing or what's going on on the external side with Blue Prism? We're optimistic that accelerates in the rest of the year too. Good enough answer. Thank you. There are no further questions at this time. I will now turn the call back to Bill Stone for closing remarks. Again, we really appreciate all of you coming on our call and, you know, we look forward to talking to you after the second quarter. Thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, this concludes today's call. Thank you for your participation. You may now disconnect.
