NCR said it reported revenue of $1.52 billion (+3 percent) with operating income of $109 million (–5 percent) in Q1 2018.

NCR said its software revenue grew 2 percent driven by cloud revenue growth of 9 percent and professional services revenue growth of 8 percent in the first quarter.

Software license revenue of NCR fell 18 percent due to lower hardware revenue, the timing of large software transactions in the prior year and the beginning of a shift from software license revenue to cloud revenue.

NCR said services revenue rose 8 percent driven by hardware maintenance and implementation services growth as a result of momentum in managed service offerings and channel transformation trends.

Hardware revenue fell 3 percent. ATM revenue dipped 7 percent reflecting the lower backlog starting the quarter. SCO revenue dropped 24 percent due to the timing of customer rollouts. POS revenue increased 19 percent due to store transformation trends.
