SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
There have been no changes to our significant accounting policies described in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2025, filed with the SEC on November 21, 2025, that have had a material impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the reporting and disclosure rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, such statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring items) which are considered necessary for fair presentation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries as of June 30, 2026 and for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.
As permitted by the rules and regulations of the SEC, certain information and disclosures otherwise included in the notes to the consolidated financial statements have been condensed or omitted from the summary of significant accounting policies. The Company believes the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. It is recommended that these interim condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements and related footnotes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2025 filed with the SEC on November 21, 2025.
Principles of Consolidation
These interim condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiary companies. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Restricted Cash
Restricted cash represents funds held in escrow related to acquisitions or held-on-deposit with the processing bank pursuant to agreements to cover potential merchant losses. It is presented as long-term assets on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets since the initial terms of the related agreements extend beyond the next twelve months. The Company includes restricted cash along with the cash and cash equivalents balance for presentation in the consolidated statements of cash flows.
Reclassifications
Discontinued operations
The results of operations for the Company's Merchant Services Business and Healthcare RCM Business have been reclassified as discontinued operations for all periods presented in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. Refer to Note 2 for additional information.
Change in presentation of cash flows
During the third quarter of 2026, the Company adopted the condensed presentation of cash flows permitted for interim period financial statements. The Company changed its presentation of cash flows associated with operating activities within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. This change has no impact on net cash provided by (used in) operating activities, investing activities or financing activities. Comparative amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. This change has no impact on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations or Condensed Consolidated Statement of Changes in Equity.
The following tables present the effects of the change in presentation within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows:

Inventories
Inventories consist of point-of-sale equipment to be sold to customers and are stated at the lower of cost, determined on a weighted average or specific basis, or net realizable value. Inventories were $2,798 and $2,516 at June 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025, respectively, and are included within prepaid expenses and other current assets on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.
Acquisitions
The operating results of an acquisition are included in the consolidated statements of operations from the date of such acquisition. Acquisitions completed during the nine months ended June 30, 2026 contributed $4,600 and $63 of revenue and net income, respectively, to the results in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations for the nine months ended June 30, 2026.
Revenue Recognition and Deferred Revenue
The Company recognizes revenue as each performance obligation is satisfied in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”).
Arrangements may contain multiple performance obligations, such as payment authorization services, transaction settlement services, hardware, software products, SaaS, maintenance, and professional installation and training services. Revenues are allocated to each performance obligation based on the standalone selling price of each good or service. The Company establishes estimated selling price, based on the judgment of the Company's management, considering internal factors such as margin objectives, pricing practices and controls,
customer segment pricing strategies and the product life cycle. In arrangements with multiple performance obligations, the Company applies significant judgment in determining the allocation of the transaction price at inception of the arrangement and uses the standalone selling prices for the majority of the Company's revenue recognition.
Revenue is recognized net of any taxes collected from clients, which are subsequently remitted to governmental authorities.
Software and other related revenue
Software and other related revenue includes software-as-a-service (“SaaS”), transaction-based fees, ongoing software maintenance and support, software licenses, other professional services related to the Company's software offerings, sales of equipment, non-software related maintenance plans or professional services, bundled performance obligations for software sales and equipment leasing and other revenues.
Revenues from the Company’s software are recognized when the related performance obligations are satisfied. In accordance with ASC 606, sales of software licenses considered to be intellectual property are categorized as functional or symbolic. The key distinction is whether the license represents a right to use (functional) or a right to access (symbolic) intellectual property. The Company generates sales of one-time software licenses, which are considered functional intellectual property, and right to access license sales, which are considered symbolic intellectual property. Revenue from functional intellectual property is recognized at a point in time, when control of the software license transfers to the customer, while revenue from symbolic intellectual property is recognized over time, as control transfers to the customer. The Company also generates revenue from maintenance services related to these software licenses, which is recognized over time, over the term of the agreement. The Company also offers access to its software under SaaS arrangements, which represent services arrangements, and under which customers do not have the right to take possession of the software. Revenue from SaaS arrangements is recognized over time, over the term of the agreement.
Contracts with professional services, such as training or installation, are evaluated to determine if the customer can benefit from these services independently, whether they can be provided by other available resources, or whether they are separately identifiable from other contract promises. If professional services are determined to be distinct, the revenue allocable to the service obligations are recognized over time as we perform the services. Professional services fees are typically billed on a time and material or a milestone basis as defined within contract terms. Revenue for milestone basis contracts is recognized either at milestone completion or by measuring progress-to-completion, generally using labor hours, depending on the language in the contracts.
Revenues are also derived from a variety of transaction fees, which are charged for transacting within our software solutions and fees for other miscellaneous services. Revenues derived from such fees are recognized at the time of the transactions and are recognized over time when they represent stand ready obligations.
Revenue from the sale of equipment is recognized at a point in time, upon transfer of control to the customer, after which there are no further performance obligations remaining to be satisfied.
Revenue from hardware maintenance agreements is recognized over time, over the term of the agreement.
Revenue from bundled performance obligations for software sales and equipment leasing is recognized over time as a single performance obligation. Lease income is recognized in accordance with ASC 842, and the leased equipment is classified as fixed assets and depreciated over its useful life.
Proprietary payments revenue
Proprietary payments revenue includes discount fees and other related fixed transaction or service fees.
Discount fees represent a percentage of the dollar amount of each credit or debit transaction processed or a specified per transaction amount, depending on the card type. The Company frequently enters into agreements with customers under which the customer engages the Company to provide both payment authorization services and transaction settlement services for all of the cardholder transactions of the customer, regardless of which issuing bank and card network to which the transaction relates. The Company’s core performance obligations are to stand ready to provide continuous access to the Company’s payment authorization services and transaction settlement services in order to be able to process as many transactions as its customers require on a daily basis over the contract term. These services are stand ready obligations, as the nature of the promise is to stand ready to process an undetermined quantity of transactions. Under a stand ready obligation, the Company’s performance obligation is defined by each time increment rather than by the underlying activities satisfied over time based on days elapsed. Because the service of standing ready is substantially the same each day and has the same pattern of transfer to the customer, the Company has determined that its stand ready performance obligation comprises a series of distinct days of service. Discount fees are recognized over time based on the volume or transaction count at the time the merchants’ transactions are processed.
The Company follows the requirements of ASC 606-10-55 Revenue from Contracts with Customers—Principal versus Agent Considerations, which states that the determination of whether a company should recognize revenue based on the gross amount billed to a customer or the net amount retained is a matter of judgment that depends on the facts and circumstances of the arrangement. The determination of gross versus net recognition of revenue requires judgment that depends on whether the Company controls the good or service before it is transferred to the merchant or whether the Company is acting as an agent of a third party. The assessment is provided separately for each performance obligation identified. Under its agreements, the Company incurs interchange and network charges from the third-party card issuers and card networks, respectively, related to the provision of payment authorization services. The Company has determined that it is acting as an agent with respect to these payment authorization services, based on the following factors: (1) the Company has no discretion over which card issuing bank will be used to process a transaction and is unable to direct the activity of the merchant to another card issuing bank, and (2) interchange and card network rates are pre-established by the card issuers or card networks, and the Company has no latitude in determining these fees. Therefore, revenue allocated to the payment authorization performance obligation is presented net of interchange and card network fees paid to the card issuing bank and card network, respectively, for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.
Disaggregation of revenue
The following table presents revenue from contracts with customers for continuing operations disaggregated by categories that reflect how economic factors affect the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenues and cash flows:
Three Months Ended June 30,Nine Months Ended June 30,
2026202520262025
Software and other related revenue    $39,778 $38,801 $120,969 $117,663 
Proprietary payments revenue13,289 13,100 42,287 40,594 
Total revenue$53,067 $51,901 $163,256 $158,257 
Contract Assets
The Company bills for certain software and related services sales and fixed fee professional services upon pre-determined milestones in the contracts. Therefore, the Company may have contract assets other than trade accounts receivable for performance obligations that are partially completed, which would typically represent consulting services provided before a milestone is completed in a contract. Additionally, contract assets also include software licenses sold as a right to use license but paid for under a non-cancellable subscription model. Under this structure, the license revenue is recognized upfront while a portion of the revenue is unbilled. Unbilled amounts associated with these professional services and software licenses sold under the subscription model are presented as accounts receivable as the Company has an unconditional right to payment for services performed.
As of June 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025, the Company’s contract assets from contracts with customers was $9,567 and $9,211, respectively.
Contract Liabilities
Deferred revenue represents amounts billed to customers by the Company for services contracts. Payment is typically collected at the start of the contract term. The initial prepaid contract agreement balance is deferred. The balance is then recognized as the services are provided over the contract term. Deferred revenue that is expected to be recognized as revenue within one year is recorded as short-term deferred revenue and the remaining portion is recorded as other long-term liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The terms for most of the Company's contracts with a deferred revenue component are one year. Substantially all of the Company's deferred revenue is anticipated to be recognized within the next year.
The following tables present the changes in deferred revenue as of and for the nine months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively:

Use of Estimates
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Such estimates include, but are not limited to, the value of purchase consideration paid and identifiable assets acquired and assumed in acquisitions, goodwill and intangible asset impairment review, determination of performance obligations for revenue recognition, loss reserves, assumptions used in the calculation of equity-based compensation and in the calculation of income taxes, and certain tax assets and liabilities as well as the related valuation allowances. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Segment Information
The Company has identified its Chief Executive Officer as the Company's Chief Operating Decision Maker ("CODM"). The Company’s CODM reviews discrete financial information on a consolidated basis for purposes of allocating resources and evaluating financial performance which is based on consolidated information about our revenues, income from operations, and other key financial data. All significant operating decisions are made by analyzing the Company as a single operating segment and as a result, the Company determined that it operates
as a single reportable segment. See Note 13 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information.
