History

On November 20, 1985, an initial public offering made JHA a public company trading 3,125,000 common shares on the NASDAQ exchange under the symbol JKHY. In 1992, JHA began to aggressively acquire companies that expanded its product offering and client base. It acquired Symitar in 2000, establishing its second brand which serves the credit union industry. In 2004, JHA acquired a number of companies and products that can be sold outside JHA's core client base; two years later, in 2006, JHA launched its third primary brand, ProfitStars, to encompass the specialized products and services assembled through its acquisitions.
