Carreker Corporation to Delay Fourth Quarter and Fiscal 2005 Earnings Release and Conference Call

DALLAS (March 14, 2006) -- Carreker Corporation (Nasdaq: CANI), a leading provider of payments technology and consulting solutions for the financial services industry, announced today that it has postponed its fourth quarter and fiscal year end 2005 earnings release and related conference call and Web cast, previously scheduled to take place on Wednesday, March 15, 2006. The Company is in the process of reviewing an accounting issue related to deferred revenue which may impact its financial statements.   The net adverse impact on the Statement of Operations is not expected to exceed $2.1 million. As soon as practical, the Company will issue an announcement regarding the new financial results release date.

 “While it is not our preference to delay the release of our fourth quarter and fiscal year results, providing quality financial information is paramount and allowing for additional time to ensure complete and accurate financial statements is the right decision,” said J.D. (Denny) Carreker, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Carreker Corporation. “We are still in the preliminary stages of our review but have determined that the issue is not related to the Company’s ongoing accounting practices, that it does not affect the Company’s cash position, and that it will not impact future results of operations.”
