The Company signed 25 Enterprise contracts, of which eight were new relationships and 17 were substantial add-on purchases from existing Enterprise customers.

The Company added 60 new customers to its growing family of more than 4,000 financial institutions and closed approximately 260 cross-sales to existing customers.

The transition to a recurring revenue model prompted the Company to provide new metrics associated with Annualized Recurring Revenue and discontinue providing annual guidance for 2005.

"The large number of add-on contracts signed with existing Enterprise customers this quarter is an important indicator that our customers are seeing real value in purchasing multiple applications and services from a single source," said Jaime Ellertson, chief executive officer of S1 Corporation. "Additional substantiation of our strategy is evidenced by our expanding contractual relationship with Misys, one of the largest international core processors, who agreed to distribute our entire Enterprise suite, which doubles the number of Enterprise products available to be sold by Misys' retail and wholesale banking divisions."
