Tyler Technologies Acquires Computer Software Associates, Inc.

Tyler Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: TYL - News) today announced that it has acquired Computer Software Associates, Inc. (CSA), which provides financial management systems to schools and county governments. CSA, founded in 1982 and based in Billings, Mont., is a reseller of Tyler’s Infinite Visions® school enterprise solution, and sells proprietary CSA tax and recording solutions to county governments.

CSA had approximately $8.2 million in total revenue during 2011, and has more than 200 installations in 10 states throughout the United States. As a result of the transaction, CSA clients will become Tyler customers, and its approximately 60 employees will join Tyler.

The CSA transaction complements two other recent Tyler acquisitions — Windsor Management Group, L.L.C., and UniFund, L.L.C. — both of which provide financial and human capital management solutions to the K-12 education market.

In addition to being a reseller for Tyler’s Infinite Visions solution, CSA builds and maintains a robust line of proprietary software. This software includes solutions for land and vital record indexing for county recorders, and taxation solutions for county treasurers. Both products are highly competitive and complement Tyler’s existing application suites, while further increasing Tyler’s market share nationwide in the county recorder and tax markets.

“Acquiring CSA immediately increases Tyler’s presence in the Northwest, further unifies our Infinite Visions brand, and presents interesting new opportunities with local governments,” said Brett Cate, president of Tyler’s Local Government Division. “CSA is a nearly 30-year-old company that is well known for deep and long-lasting client relationships built on innovation and integrity — these qualities are shared and valued by Tyler, our employees and our customers alike.”

“Our mission statement has always been that we are committed to providing customers with excellent service and leading-edge software products. Tyler Technologies shares that same core value as witnessed by their high level of customer and employee retention,” said Jeff Melugin, vice president of CSA. “Combining with Tyler will provide our employees with opportunities to showcase their individual talents and continue to provide a solid foundation for our customers.”
