Manhattan Associates currently intends to make public certain expectations with respect to future financial performance. Those statements, including the guidance provided above, are forward looking. Actual results may differ materially. See our cautionary note regarding "forward-looking statements" below.

Following publication of this earnings release, any expectations with respect to future financial performance contained in this release or the conference call, including the guidance, should be considered historical only, and Manhattan Associates disclaims any obligation to update them. CONFERENCE CALL Manhattan Associates' conference call regarding its first quarter financial results will be held today, April 21, 2026, at 4:30 p.m. Eastern Time. The Company will also discuss its business and expectations for the year and next quarter in additional detail during the call.

GAAP VERSUS NON-GAAP PRESENTATION Manhattan Associates provides adjusted operating income and margin, adjusted income tax provision, adjusted net income, and adjusted diluted earnings per share in this press release as additional information regarding the Company's historical and projected operating results. These measures are not in accordance with, or alternatives to, GAAP, and may be different from similarly titled non-GAAP measures used by other companies. The Company believes the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures facilitates investors' ability to understand and compare the Company's results and guidance, because the measures provide supplemental information in evaluating the operating results of its business, as distinct from results that include items not indicative of ongoing operating results, and because the Company believes its peers typically publish similar non-GAAP measures. This release should be read in conjunction with the Company's Form 8-K earnings release filing for the three months ended March 31, 2026. Non-GAAP adjusted operating income and margin, adjusted income tax provision, adjusted net income, and adjusted diluted earnings per share exclude the impact of equity-based compensation, an expense - net of insurance recoveries, related to an unusual health insurance claim, and restructuring expense - net of income tax effects, collectively. They also exclude the tax benefits or deficiencies of vested stock awards caused by differences in the amount deductible for tax purposes from the compensation expense recorded for financial reporting purposes. We include reconciliations of the Company's GAAP financial measures to non-GAAP adjustments in the supplemental information attached to this release.

AND SUBSIDIARIES Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income (in thousands, except per share amounts) Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 2025 (unaudited) (unaudited) Revenue: Cloud subscriptions $117,123 $94,306 Software license 2,234 9,292 Maintenance 30,592 32,144 Services 125,717 121,127 Hardware 6,549 5,918 Total revenue 282,215 262,787 Costs and expenses: Cost of cloud subscriptions, maintenance and services 126,077 114,358 Cost of software license 564 209 Research and development 37,346 35,298 Sales and marketing 27,752 21,061 General and administrative 23,706 24,219 Depreciation and amortization 1,833 1,541 Restructuring expense - 2,929 Total costs and expenses 217,278 199,615 Operating income 64,937 63,172 Other income, net 4,337 1,337 Income before income taxes 69,274 64,509 Income tax provision 19,979 11,927 Net income $49,295 $52,582 Basic earnings per share $0.83 $0.86 Diluted earnings per share $0.82 $0.85 Weighted average number of shares: Basic 59,688 60,870 Diluted 60,038 61,527 Reconciliation of Selected GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures (in thousands, except per share amounts) Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 2025 Operating income $64,937 $63,172 Equity-based compensation (a) 26,524 28,826 Unusual health insurance claim (c) - (3,658) Restructuring expense (d) - 2,929 Adjusted operating income (Non-GAAP) $91,461 $91,269 Income tax provision $19,979 $11,927 Equity-based compensation (a) 3,698 4,340 Tax (deficiency) benefit of stock awards vested (b) (2,177) 3,542 Unusual health insurance claim (c) - (883) Restructuring expense (d) - 707 Adjusted income tax provision (Non-GAAP) $21,500 $19,633 Net income $49,295 $52,582 Equity-based compensation (a) 22,826 24,486 Tax deficiency (benefit) of stock awards vested (b) 2,177 (3,542) Unusual health insurance claim (c) - (2,775) Restructuring expense (d) - 2,222 Adjusted net income (Non-GAAP) $74,298 $72,973 Diluted EPS $0.82 $0.85 Equity-based compensation (a) 0.38 0.40 Tax deficiency (benefit) of stock awards vested (b) 0.04 (0.06) Unusual health insurance claim (c) - (0.05) Restructuring expense (d) - 0.04 Adjusted diluted EPS (Non-GAAP) $1.24 $1.19 Fully diluted shares 60,038 61,527 Adjusted results exclude all equity-based compensation, as detailed below, to facilitate comparison with our peers and for the other reasons explained in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC. We do not receive a GAAP tax benefit for a portion of our equity-based compensation, mainly because of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code, which limits tax deductions for compensation granted to certain executives. Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 2025 Cost of services $11,586 $11,425 Research and development 6,387 5,958 Sales and marketing 3,668 2,306 General and administrative 4,883 9,137 Total equity-based compensation $26,524 $28,826 Adjustments represent the excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies of the equity awards vested during the period. Excess tax benefits (deficiencies) occur when the amount deductible on our tax return for an equity award is more (less) than the cumulative compensation cost recognized for financial reporting purposes. As discussed above, we exclude equity-based compensation from adjusted non-GAAP results to be consistent with other companies in the software industry and for the other reasons explained in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC. Therefore, we also exclude the related tax benefit (expense) generated upon their vesting. In the fourth quarter of 2024, we recorded $7.0 million of expense for an unusual health insurance claim. During the first quarter of 2025, we received an insurance recovery of $4.7 million for this claim, partially offset by $1.0 million of ongoing expense for the claim. During the second quarter of 2025, we recorded an additional $3.0 million of expense for this unusual health insurance claim. During the fourth quarter of 2025, we settled the remaining balance of the claim and recorded $6.2 million of benefit as the final payment was much lower than the cost estimates previously provided by our health insurance provider. Based on the uncommonly large magnitude and nature of the claim and timing of related insurance recoveries, we do not believe that this expense reflects our normal operating activities, and we have excluded the amount from adjusted non-GAAP results. In January 2025, the Company eliminated about 100 positions to align our services capacity with customer demand, which had been impacted by macro-economic uncertainty. We recorded pre-tax restructuring expense in the first quarter of 2025 of approximately $2.9 million. The expense primarily consists of employee severance and outplacement services. We do not believe that the expense is a common cost that resulted from normal operating activities, and thus we have excluded the amount from adjusted non-GAAP results. MANHATTAN ASSOCIATES, INC.
