| Jul 21, 2026 | mda_quarterly | Equifax reported strong growth for the first half of 2026, with consolidated operating revenue rising 12% to $3.35 billion. This performance was driven by broad-based gains across all three segments: Workforce Solutions (up 8%), U.S. Information Solutions (USIS, up 19%), and International (up 10%). USIS growth was particularly robust, fueled by higher mortgage volumes and pricing, alongside strength in diversified markets. Workforce Solutions benefited from increased demand in talent and mortgage verticals, while International growth was supported by local currency expansion in Asia Pacific, Canada, and Latin America. Despite revenue gains, operating margins faced pressure, contracting slightly to 18.0% for the six-month period. This was primarily due to higher royalty costs, increased amortization of capitalized internal-use software from recent technology transformations, and a $100 million litigation charge related to a previously disclosed credit score coding issue. Liquidity remains stable, supported by $170.1 million in cash and $600 million in available revolving credit. The company continues to prioritize capital returns, repurchasing $560 million in shares during the first half of 2026 and increasing its quarterly dividend to $0.56 per share. Looking ahead, Equifax has entered a definitive agreement to acquire Círculo de Crédito for $750 million, expected to close in late 2026. |
| Apr 21, 2026 | mda_quarterly | Operating revenue for the first quarter of 2026 increased 14% to $1,648.9 million, with net income attributable to Equifax rising 29% to $171.5 million and diluted EPS reaching $1.42. Growth was led by U.S. Information Solutions, where revenue grew 21% due to higher mortgage volumes, product pricing, and diversified market expansion, although operating margins declined slightly to 20.2% due to increased royalty costs. Workforce Solutions revenue rose 10%, driven by Verification Services in the government, mortgage, and talent sectors, which offset declines in Employer Services' ACA-related revenue. International revenue increased 11%, supported by a $22.3 million foreign exchange benefit. Management anticipates economic headwinds, including inflation and interest rate volatility, expecting U.S. mortgage originations and international GDP growth to be lower than 2025 levels. Capital allocation included $260 million in share repurchases under a $3 billion authorization and an increased quarterly dividend of $0.56 per share. Liquidity is supported by $0.5 billion in available capacity on a $1.5 billion revolving credit facility. Legal contingencies include a $30 million accrual for a global settlement regarding consumer inquiry disputes and ongoing FCRA litigation. |
