FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This report contains information that may constitute “forward-looking statements.” Generally, the words “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “estimate,” “anticipate,” “project,” “will,” “may” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, which generally are not historical in nature. All statements that address operating performance and events or developments that we expect or anticipate will occur in the future, including statements related to our strategy, our future operating results, improvements in our information technology and data security infrastructure, the expected financial and operational benefits, synergies and growth from our acquisitions, the expected benefits of our use of artificial intelligence, the pricing strategies, benefits and value proposition of product offerings of Equifax and its competitors, changes in the U.S. mortgage market environment (as well as changes more generally in U.S. and worldwide economic conditions), such as changes in interest rates and inflation levels, and similar statements about our financial outlook and business plans, are forward-looking statements. Management believes that these forward-looking statements are reasonable as and when made. However, forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from the Company’s historical experience and our present expectations or projections, including without limitation our expectations regarding the Company’s outlook, long-term organic and inorganic growth, and customer acceptance of our business solutions referenced below under “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Business Overview.” These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those described in Part II, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” and elsewhere in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, and those described from time to time in our future reports filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). As a result of such risks and uncertainties, we urge you not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date when made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

EQUIFAX INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

March 31, 2026

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

As used herein, the terms Equifax, the Company, we, our and us refer to Equifax Inc., a Georgia corporation, and its consolidated subsidiaries as a combined entity, except where it is clear that the terms mean only Equifax Inc.

Nature of Operations. We collect, organize and manage various types of financial, demographic, employment, criminal justice data and marketing information. Our products and services enable businesses to make credit and service decisions, manage their portfolio risk, automate or outsource certain payroll-related, tax and human resources business processes and develop marketing strategies concerning consumers and commercial enterprises. We serve customers across a wide range of industries, including the financial services, mortgage, retail, telecommunications, utilities, automotive, brokerage, healthcare and insurance industries, as well as government agencies. We also enable consumers to manage and protect their financial health through a portfolio of products offered directly to consumers. As of March 31, 2026, we operated in the following countries: Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, Honduras, India, Ireland, Mexico, New Zealand, Paraguay, Peru, Portugal, Spain, the United Kingdom ("U.K."), Uruguay and the United States of America ("U.S."). We also have investments in consumer and/or commercial credit information companies through joint ventures in Brazil, Cambodia, Malaysia and Singapore.

We develop, maintain and enhance secured proprietary information databases through the compilation of consumer specific data, including credit, income, employment, criminal justice, asset, liquidity, net worth and spending activity, and business data, including credit and business demographics, that we obtain from a variety of sources, such as credit granting institutions, payroll processors, and income and tax information primarily from large to mid-sized companies in the U.S. We process this information utilizing our proprietary information management systems. We also provide information, technology and services to support debt collections and recovery management.

Basis of Presentation. The unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, the instructions to Form 10-Q and applicable sections of SEC Regulation S-X. This Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 (“2025 Form 10-K”).

Our unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the periods presented and are of a normal recurring nature.

Earnings Per Share. Our basic earnings per share, or EPS, is calculated as net income attributable to Equifax divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted EPS is calculated to reflect the potential dilution that would occur if stock options or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised and resulted in additional common shares outstanding. The net income amounts used in both our basic and diluted EPS calculations are the same. A reconciliation of the weighted-average outstanding shares used in the two calculations is as follows:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2026	2025
	(In millions)
Weighted-average shares outstanding (basic)	120.0	124.1
Effect of dilutive securities:
Stock options and restricted stock units	0.8	1.0
Weighted-average shares outstanding (diluted)	120.8	125.1

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, 0.9 million stock options were anti-dilutive and therefore excluded from this calculation. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, stock options that were anti-dilutive were not material.

Financial Instruments. Our financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and short and long-term debt. The carrying amounts of these items, other than long-term debt, approximate their fair market values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. The fair value of our fixed-rate debt is determined using Level 2 inputs such as quoted market prices for publicly traded instruments, and for non-publicly traded instruments, through valuation techniques depending on the specific characteristics of the debt instrument, taking into account credit risk. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the fair value of our long-term debt, including the current portion, based on observable inputs was $4.2 billion and $4.3 billion, respectively, compared to its carrying value of $4.4 billion for both periods.

Fair Value Measurements. Fair value is determined based on the assumptions marketplace participants use in pricing an asset or liability. We use a three level fair value hierarchy to prioritize the inputs used in valuation techniques between observable inputs that reflect quoted prices in active markets, inputs other than quoted prices with observable market data and unobservable data (e.g., a company’s own data).

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis. We did not complete any acquisitions during the three months ended March 31, 2026.

Trade Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts. Accounts receivable are stated at cost and are due in less than a year. Significant payment terms for customers are identified in the contract. We do not recognize interest income on our trade accounts receivable. Additionally, we generally do not require collateral from our customers related to our trade accounts receivable.

The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on management's estimate for expected credit losses for outstanding trade accounts receivables. We determine expected credit losses based on historical write-off experience, an analysis of the aging of outstanding receivables, customer payment patterns, the establishment of specific reserves for customers in an adverse financial condition and adjusted based upon our expectations of changes in macroeconomic conditions that may impact the collectability of outstanding receivables. We reassess the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts each reporting period. Increases to the allowance for doubtful accounts are recorded as bad debt expense, which is included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income. Below is a rollforward of our allowance for doubtful accounts for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2026		2025
	(In millions)
Allowance for doubtful accounts, beginning of period	$	20.2	$	16.9
Current period bad debt expense	10.6		6.0
Write-offs, net of recoveries	(9.1)		(4.7)
Allowance for doubtful accounts, end of period	$	21.7	$	18.2

Other Current Assets. Other current assets on our Consolidated Balance Sheets primarily include amounts receivable from tax authorities. Other current assets also include amounts in specifically designated accounts that hold the funds that are due to customers from our debt collection and recovery management services. As of March 31, 2026, these assets were $11.4 million, with a corresponding balance in other current liabilities. These amounts are restricted as to their current use and will be released according to the specific customer agreements.

Other Assets. Other assets on our Consolidated Balance Sheets primarily represent our investments in unconsolidated affiliates, the Company’s operating lease right-of-use assets, employee benefit trust assets, assets related to life insurance policies covering certain officers of the Company and long-term deferred tax assets.

Other Current Liabilities. Other current liabilities on our Consolidated Balance Sheets consist of the current portion of our operating lease liabilities and various accrued liabilities such as interest expense, income taxes, accrued employee benefits, and insurance expense. Other current liabilities also include the offset to other current assets related to amounts in specifically designated accounts that hold the funds that are due to customers from our debt collection and recovery management services. As of March 31, 2026, these funds were $11.4 million. These amounts are restricted as to their current use and will be released according to the specific customer agreements.

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest. As part of the merger consideration issued to complete the acquisition of BVS, we issued shares of one of our subsidiaries, thus resulting in a noncontrolling interest. We recognized the noncontrolling interest at fair value at the date of acquisition. These shares were issued with specific rights allowing the holders to sell the

shares back to Equifax, at fair value during specified future time periods starting at the fifth anniversary and only when certain conditions exist. Additionally, the shareholder agreements provide Equifax with the right to buy the shares back at fair value at future dates beginning after the tenth anniversary of the acquisition, however Equifax is not required to exercise this right at any point.

We determined that the noncontrolling interest shareholder rights meet the requirements to be considered redeemable.

Therefore, we have classified the noncontrolling interest outside of permanent equity within our Consolidated Balance Sheet. Currently, the noncontrolling interest is not redeemable but it is probable that it will become redeemable in the future.

The redeemable noncontrolling interest is reflected using the redemption method as of the balance sheet date. Redeemable noncontrolling interest adjustments to the redemption values are reflected in retained earnings. The adjustment of redemption value at the period end that reflects a redemption value to an amount other than fair value is included as an adjustment to net income attributable to Equifax stockholders for the purposes of the calculation of earnings per share. None of the current period adjustments reflect a redemption value in excess of fair value.

The Company's redeemable noncontrolling interests activities for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 are summarized as follows:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
Redeemable noncontrolling interests:	2026		2025
	(In millions)
Redeemable noncontrolling interests, beginning of period	$	114.4	$	105.2

Net loss attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interest	(0.1)		(0.1)

Effect of foreign currency translation attributable to redeemable noncontrolling interest	6.1		7.6
Redeemable noncontrolling interests, end of period	$	120.4	$	112.7

Recent Accounting Pronouncements. Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow Scope Improvements. On December 8, 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow Scope Improvements. The ASU improves the navigability of the required interim reporting requirements. The ASU does not change the fundamental nature of interim reporting or expand or reduce current interim disclosure requirements. The update centralizes and clarifies interim reporting requirements by consolidating all interim disclosure rules into Topic 270 and establishing a new "disclosure principle" to capture material events occurring after the last annual report. Entities must apply a principle requiring the disclosure of any events or changes that have occurred since the end of the last annual reporting period that have a material impact on the entity (e.g., changes in long-term contracts, new borrowings, or business combinations). The amendments in this Update are effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027 and can be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. We are still evaluating the impact, but do not expect the adoption of the standard to have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software. On September 18, 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06 which amends certain aspects of the accounting for and disclosure of software costs under ASC 350-40. The amendments in the ASU remove all references to prescriptive and sequential software development stages throughout Subtopic 350-40. Therefore, an entity is required to start capitalizing software costs when both of the following occur: (i) management has authorized and committed to funding the software project and (ii) it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended (the “probable-to-complete recognition threshold”). In evaluating the probable-to-complete recognition threshold, an entity is required to consider whether there is significant uncertainty associated with the development activities of the software (“significant development uncertainty”). Significant development uncertainty exists if either of the following factors is present: (i) the software being developed has technological innovations or novel, unique, or unproven functions or features, and the uncertainty related to those technological innovations, functions, or features, if identified, has not been resolved through coding and testing or (ii) the entity has not determined what it needs the software to do (for example, functions or features), including whether the entity has not identified or continues to substantially revise the software’s significant performance requirements. The amendments in the ASU specify that the disclosures in Subtopic 360-10, Property, Plant, and Equipment—Overall, are required for all capitalized internal-use software costs, regardless of how those costs are presented in the financial statements. Additionally, the amendments clarify that the intangibles disclosures in paragraphs 350-30-50-1 through 50-3 are not required for capitalized internal-use software costs. The amendments in the ASU are effective for all entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual reporting period. The amendments in the ASU permit an entity to apply the new guidance using any of the following transition approaches: (i) a prospective transition

approach, (ii) modified transition approach that is based on the status of the project and whether software costs were capitalized before the date of adoption, or (iii) a retrospective transition approach. We are still evaluating the impact the adoption of the standard will have on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Business Combinations and Consolidation. On May 12, 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-03, which revises the guidance in ASC 805 on identifying the accounting acquirer in a business combination in which the legal acquiree is a variable interest entity ("VIE"). The ASU is intended to improve comparability between business combinations that involve VIEs and those that do not. Under ASU 2025-03, a reporting entity involved in a business combination effected primarily by the exchange of equity interests must consider the factors in ASC 805-10-55-12 through 55-15 to determine which entity is the accounting acquirer regardless of whether the legal acquiree is a VIE. More specifically, when considering those factors, the reporting entity can determine that a transaction in which the legal acquiree is a VIE represents a reverse acquisition (in which the legal acquirer is identified as the acquiree for accounting purposes). As a result, comparability is increased with business combinations in which the legal acquiree is a VIE. ASU 2025-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments in ASU 2025-03 must be applied prospectively to any business combination that occurs after the initial adoption date. We are still evaluating the impact, but do not expect the adoption of the standard to have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Income Statement — Reporting Comprehensive Income. In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03 "Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses." The update requires public business entities to disclose in a tabular format, on an annual and interim basis, purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, intangible asset amortization and depletion for each income statement line item that contains those expenses. Specified expenses, gains and losses that are already disclosed under existing U.S. GAAP are also required to be included in the disaggregated income statement expense line-item disclosures, and any remaining amounts need to be described qualitatively. Separate disclosures of total selling expenses and an entity’s definition of those expenses are also required annually. The ASU is effective for public entities for annual periods with fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Public entities are required to adopt the ASU prospectively. However, public entities are permitted to apply the amendments in the ASU retrospectively. We are still evaluating the impact on our financial statement disclosures.

2. REVENUE

Revenue Recognition. Based on the information that management reviews internally for evaluating operating segment performance and nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows affected by economic factors, we disaggregate revenue as follows:


	Three Months Ended March 31,				Change
Consolidated Operating Revenue	2026		2025		$		%
	(In millions)
Verification Services	$	571.4	$	502.2	$	69.2	14	%
Employer Services	111.7		116.4		(4.7)		(4)	%
Total Workforce Solutions	683.1		618.6		64.5		10	%
Online Information Solutions	553.7		448.1		105.6		24	%

Financial Marketing Services	51.9		51.8		0.1		—	%
Total U.S. Information Solutions	605.6		499.9		105.7		21	%
Latin America	102.7		94.2		8.5		9	%
Europe	94.0		86.6		7.4		9	%
Asia Pacific	92.6		79.7		12.9		16	%
Canada	70.9		63.0		7.9		12	%
Total International	360.2		323.5		36.7		11	%
Total operating revenue	$	1,648.9	$	1,442.0	$	206.9	14	%

Remaining Performance Obligation – We have elected to disclose only the remaining performance obligations for those contracts with an expected duration of greater than one year and do not disclose the value of remaining performance obligations for contracts in which we recognize revenue at the amount to which we have the right to invoice. We expect to recognize as revenue the following amounts related to our remaining performance obligations as of March 31, 2026, inclusive of foreign exchange impact:


Performance Obligation	Amount
	(In millions)
Less than 1 year	$	28.6
1 to 3 years	29.7
3 to 5 years	16.6
Thereafter	5.1
Total remaining performance obligation	$	80.0

3. ACQUISITIONS AND INVESTMENTS

We did not complete any acquisitions during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

4. GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

Goodwill. Goodwill represents the cost in excess of the fair value of the net assets acquired in a business combination. Goodwill is tested for impairment at the reporting unit level on an annual basis and on an interim basis if an event occurs or circumstances change that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying value. We perform our annual goodwill impairment test as of December 1 each year.

Changes in the amount of goodwill for the three months ended March 31, 2026 are as follows:


	Workforce Solutions		U.S. Information Solutions		International		Total

Balance, December 31, 2025	$	2,574.1	$	2,006.2	$	2,165.4	$	6,745.7


Foreign currency translation			—		45.2		45.2

Balance, March 31, 2026	$	2,574.1	$	2,006.2	$	2,210.6	$	6,790.9

Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets. Indefinite-lived intangible assets consist of indefinite-lived reacquired rights representing the value of rights which we had granted to various affiliate credit reporting agencies that were reacquired in the U.S. and Canada. At the time we acquired these agreements, they were considered perpetual in nature under the accounting guidance in place at that time and, therefore, the useful lives are considered indefinite. Indefinite-lived intangible assets are not amortized. We are required to test indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually and whenever events or circumstances indicate that there may be an impairment of the asset value. We perform our annual indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment test as of December 1 each year. Our indefinite-lived intangible asset carrying amounts did not change during the three months ended March 31, 2026.

Purchased Intangible Assets. Purchased intangible assets represent the estimated acquisition date fair value of acquired intangible assets used in our business. Purchased data files represent the estimated fair value of consumer and commercial data files acquired through our acquisitions of various companies, including a fraud and identity solutions provider and independent credit reporting agencies in the U.S., Australia, Brazil, Canada and Dominican Republic. We expense the cost of modifying and updating credit files in the period such costs are incurred. We amortize all of our purchased intangible assets on a straight-line basis. For additional information about the useful lives related to our purchased intangible assets, see Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2025 Form 10-K.

Purchased intangible assets, net, recorded on our Consolidated Balance Sheets at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 consisted of the following:


	March 31, 2026						December 31, 2025
	Gross		Accumulated Amortization		Net		Gross		Accumulated Amortization		Net

5. DEBT

Debt outstanding at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 was as follows:


	March 31, 2026		December 31, 2025
	(In millions)
Commercial paper ("CP")	$	958.5	$	762.0

Total long-term debt, net	$	4,055.6	$	4,055.3

Senior Credit Facility. We have access to a $1.5 billion five year unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”), which matures in August 2028. Availability of the Revolver is reduced by the outstanding principal balance of our CP notes and by any letters of credit issued under the Revolver. As of March 31, 2026, there were $958.5 million of outstanding CP notes, $1.3 million of letters of credit outstanding, and no outstanding borrowings under the Revolver. Availability under the Revolver was $0.5 billion at March 31, 2026.

Commercial Paper Program. Our $1.5 billion CP program has been established through the private placement of CP notes from time-to-time, in which borrowings may bear interest at either a variable or a fixed rate, plus the applicable margin. Maturities of CP can range from overnight to 397 days. Because the CP program is backstopped by our Revolver, the amount of CP which may be issued under the program is reduced by the outstanding face amount of any letters of credit issued and by the outstanding borrowings under our Revolver. At March 31, 2026, there were $958.5 million of outstanding CP notes. We have disclosed the net short-term borrowing activity for the three months ended March 31, 2026 in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. There were no CP borrowings or payments with a maturity date greater than 90 days and less than 365 days for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

For additional information about our debt agreements, see Note 5 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2025 Form 10-K.

6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal Settlement

Equifax has been named as a defendant in four related class action lawsuits pending in federal courts across the country concerning inquiry disputes on consumers’ credit files. In January 2026, Equifax and the plaintiffs’ attorneys who filed the lawsuits reached an agreement in principle to settle the claims at issue on a nationwide and class-wide basis. The parties have filed a notice of settlement with one federal court and expect to provide the same notice in other pending lawsuits. If the final terms of a settlement agreement cannot be agreed upon, or if the settlement is not ultimately approved by the court, Equifax believes it has valid defenses to each of these actions and will continue to defend against them. We accrued an estimate of $30.0 million related to these matters in the fourth quarter of 2025, which represents our best estimate of the liability related to global settlement of these matters.

FCRA Litigation

On August 3, 2022, a lawsuit was filed against us in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Georgia alleging violations of certain sections of the Fair Credit Reporting Act (“FCRA”) in connection with a previously-disclosed coding issue which impacted how some credit scores were calculated during a three-week period. The complaint seeks certification of a class of consumers whose scores were impacted and unspecified monetary damages, costs and attorneys’ fees. We dispute the allegations in the complaint and intend to defend against the claims.

Data Processing, Outsourcing Services and Other Agreements

We have separate agreements with Google and others to outsource portions of our network and security infrastructure, computer data processing operations, applications development, business continuity and recovery services, help desk service and desktop support functions, operation of our voice and data networks, maintenance and related functions and to provide certain other administrative and operational services. The agreements expire between 2026 and 2033. Annual payment obligations in regard to these agreements vary due to factors such as the volume of data processed; changes in our servicing needs as a result of new product offerings, acquisitions or divestitures; the introduction of significant new technologies; foreign currency; or the general rate of inflation. In certain circumstances (e.g., a change in control or for our convenience), we may terminate these data processing and outsourcing agreements, and, in doing so, certain of these agreements require us to pay significant termination fees.

Guarantees and General Indemnifications

We will from time to time issue standby letters of credit, performance or surety bonds or other guarantees in the normal course of business. The aggregate notional amount of all standby letters of credit, performance bonds and surety bonds is not material at March 31, 2026 and these instruments generally have a remaining maturity of one year or less. We may issue other guarantees in the ordinary course of business. The maximum potential future payments we could be required to make under the guarantees is not material at March 31, 2026. We have agreed to guarantee the liabilities and performance obligations (some of which have limitations) of a certain debt collections and recovery management subsidiary under its commercial agreements.

Many of our commercial agreements contain commercially standard indemnification obligations related to tort, material breach or other liabilities that arise during the course of performance under the agreement. These indemnification obligations are typically mutual.

We are the lessee under many real estate leases. It is common in these commercial lease transactions for us, as the lessee, to agree to indemnify the lessor and other related third parties for tort, environmental and other liabilities that arise out of or relate to our use or occupancy of the leased premises. This type of indemnity would typically make us responsible to indemnified parties for liabilities arising out of the conduct of, among others, contractors, licensees and invitees at or in connection with the use or occupancy of the leased premises. This indemnity often extends to related liabilities arising from the negligence of the indemnified parties, but usually excludes any liabilities caused by either their sole or gross negligence and their willful misconduct.

Certain of our credit agreements include provisions which require us to make payments to preserve an expected economic return to the lenders if that economic return is diminished due to certain changes in law or regulations. In certain of

these credit agreements, we also bear the risk of certain changes in tax laws that would be subject to payments to non-U.S. lenders to withholding taxes.

In conjunction with certain transactions, such as sales or purchases of operating assets or services in the ordinary course of business, or the disposition of certain assets or businesses, we sometimes provide routine indemnifications, the terms of which range in duration and sometimes are not limited.

The Company has entered into indemnification agreements with its directors and executive officers. Under these agreements, the Company has agreed to indemnify such individuals to the fullest extent permitted by law against liabilities that arise by reason of their status as directors or officers and to advance expenses incurred by such individuals in connection with the related legal proceedings. The Company maintains directors and officers liability insurance coverage to reduce its exposure to such obligations.

We cannot reasonably estimate our potential future payments under the guarantees and indemnities and related provisions described above because we cannot predict when and under what circumstances these provisions may be triggered.

Contingencies

In addition to the matters set forth above, we are involved in legal and regulatory matters, government investigations, claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. We periodically assess our exposure related to these matters based on the information which is available. We have recorded accruals in our Consolidated Financial Statements for those matters in which it is probable that we have incurred a loss and the amount of the loss, or range of loss, can be reasonably estimated. For certain of these matters, it is reasonably possible that we will incur losses, however it is not possible at this time to estimate the amount of loss or range of possible losses that might result from their resolution. The Company will continue to evaluate information as it becomes known and will record an estimate for losses at the time when it is both probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of the loss is reasonably estimable.

For additional information about these and other commitments and contingencies, see Note 6 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2025 Form 10-K.

7. INCOME TAXES

Effective Tax Rate

Our effective income tax rate was 26.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to 27.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Our effective tax rate was lower for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared to the same period in 2025 due to more favorable discrete tax benefits, none of which were individually material.

8. ACCUMULATED OTHER COMPREHENSIVE LOSS

Changes in accumulated other comprehensive loss by component, after tax, for the three months ended March 31, 2026 are as follows:


	Foreign currency translation adjustment		Pension and other postretirement benefit plans		Cash flow hedging transactions		Total
	(In millions)
Balance, December 31, 2025	$	(513.0)	$	(3.4)	$	(0.7)	$	(517.1)
Other comprehensive income	54.8		0.1		—		54.9


Balance, March 31, 2026	$	(458.2)	$	(3.3)	$	(0.7)	$	(462.2)

The change in accumulated other comprehensive loss related to noncontrolling interests including redeemable noncontrolling interests was an increase of $6.4 million and $7.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, related to foreign currency translation adjustments.

9. RESTRUCTURING CHARGES

Restructuring costs consist of severance costs, contract termination and associated costs and other exit and disposal costs. Severance costs relate to a reduction in headcount, contract termination costs primarily relate to penalties for early termination of contracts and associated costs of transition and other exit and disposal costs primarily relate to real estate exit costs.

During the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, we recorded $49.9 million of restructuring charges, all of which were recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses within our Consolidated Statements of Income. These charges were recorded to general corporate expense and resulted from our continuing efforts to realign our internal resources to support the Company’s global strategic objectives and primarily relate to reductions in headcount, as well as contract terminations and associated costs, which resulted from our efforts to complete our cloud technology transformation.

The changes during the three months ended March 31, 2026 in the liabilities associated with the restructuring charges recorded during 2025, including expenses incurred and cash payments, are as follows:


	Liability balance as of 12/31/2025		Expenses Incurred		Cash Payments		Liability balance as of 3/31/2026
Restructuring charges:	(In millions)
Severance costs	$	34.2	$	—	$	(5.9)	$	28.3
Contract terminations and other associated costs	0.5		—		—		0.5

Total	$	34.7	$	—	$	(5.9)	$	28.8

10. SEGMENT INFORMATION

Reportable Segments. We manage our business and report our financial results through the following three reportable segments, which are the same as our operating segments:

–Workforce Solutions

Inter-segment sales, expenses and transfers are not material for all periods presented.

A summary of segment products and services is as follows:

Workforce Solutions. This segment provides services enabling customers to verify income, employment, educational history, criminal justice data, healthcare professional licensure and sanctions of people in the U.S., as well as providing our employer customers with services that assist them in complying with and automating certain payroll-related and human resource management processes throughout the entire cycle of the employment relationship, including unemployment cost management, employee screening, employee onboarding, tax credits and incentives, I-9 management and compliance, immigration case management, tax form management services and Affordable Care Act management services.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) is intended to help the reader understand the results of operations and financial condition of Equifax Inc. MD&A is provided as a supplement to and should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the accompanying Notes to Financial Statements in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q. This section discusses the results of our operations for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025. All percentages have been calculated using unrounded amounts for each of the periods presented.

All references to earnings per share data in MD&A are to diluted earnings per share, or EPS, unless otherwise noted. Diluted EPS is calculated to reflect the potential dilution that would occur if stock options or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised and resulted in additional common shares outstanding.

BUSINESS OVERVIEW

Equifax Inc. is a global data, analytics and technology company. We provide information solutions for businesses, governments and consumers, and we provide human resources business process automation and outsourcing services for employers. We have a large and diversified group of clients, including financial institutions, corporations, government agencies and individuals. Our services are based on comprehensive databases of consumer and business information derived from numerous sources including credit, financial assets, telecommunications and utility payments, employment, income, educational history, criminal justice, healthcare professional licensure and sanctions, demographic and marketing data. We use advanced statistical techniques, artificial intelligence and machine learning, as well as proprietary software tools to analyze available data to create customized insights, decision-making and process automation solutions and processing services for our clients. We are a leading provider of information and solutions used in payroll-related and human resource management business process services in the U.S., as well as e-commerce fraud and charge back protection services in North America. For consumers, we provide products and services to help people understand, manage and protect their personal information and make more informed financial decisions. Additionally, we provide information, technology and services to support debt collections and recovery management. We report our revenue derived from sales to clients in the mortgage market as well as those in non-mortgage market verticals (including, but not limited to, government, talent, employment, fraud and other non-mortgage related services). We refer to these non-mortgage market verticals collectively as "diversified markets."

We currently operate in four global regions: North America (U.S. and Canada), Asia Pacific (Australia, New Zealand and India), Europe (the U.K., Spain and Portugal) and Latin America (Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, Honduras, Mexico, Paraguay, Peru and Uruguay). We maintain support operations in Chile, Costa Rica, India and Ireland. We also have investments in consumer and/or commercial credit information companies through joint ventures in Brazil, Cambodia, Malaysia and Singapore.

Recent Events and Company Outlook

As further described in our 2025 Form 10-K, we operate in the U.S., which represented 77% of our revenue in 2025. Additionally, we operate internationally in 20 countries. Our products and services span a wide variety of vertical markets including financial services, mortgage, talent solutions, federal, state and local governments, automotive, telecommunications, e-commerce and many others.

Demand for our services tends to be correlated to general levels of economic activity and to consumer credit and small business commercial credit decisioning and portfolio review, marketing, identity validation and fraud protection activity, employee hiring and onboarding activity, and activity in provisioning support services in the U.S. by government agencies. Demand is also enhanced by our initiatives to expand our products, capabilities and markets served.

We remain in a period of economic uncertainty in the U.S. and our global markets, including uncertainty regarding expectations for inflation and interest rates. The direction of global economies, inflation and interest rates will have an impact on demand for our services.

Our current planning for 2026 assumes that U.S. economic activity, as measured by GDP, will grow at a rate consistent with 2025. We expect U.S. mortgage originations activity in 2026 to be slightly below the levels of activity seen in 2025. The U.S. mortgage market, particularly the mortgage refinance portion of the U.S. mortgage market, can be significantly impacted by U.S. interest rates which impact mortgage rates available to consumers. In the international markets in which we operate, our planning also assumes that economic activity, as measured by GDP, will generally grow in 2026 at rates below those experienced in 2025. As noted above, due to the current significant economic and market volatility and uncertainty, these assumptions may change.

For more information, see “Item 1A. Risk FactorsーNegative changes in general economic conditions, including interest rates, the level of inflation, unemployment rates, income, home prices, investment values and consumer confidence, could adversely affect us,” in our 2025 Form 10-K.

Segment and Geographic Information

Segments. The Workforce Solutions segment consists of the Verification Services and Employer Services business lines. Verification Services revenue is transaction and subscription based and is derived primarily from verifications of employment and income data, as well as criminal justice data and educational background data. Employer Services revenue is derived from our provision of certain human resources business process outsourcing services that include both transaction and subscription based product offerings. These services include unemployment claims management, I-9 and onboarding services, Affordable Care Act ("ACA") compliance management, tax credits and incentives and other complementary employment-based transaction services.

The USIS segment consists of two service lines: Online Information Solutions and Financial Marketing Services. Online Information Solutions revenue is principally transaction-based and is derived from our sales of products such as consumer and commercial credit reporting and scoring, identity management, fraud detection, modeling services and consumer credit monitoring services. USIS also markets certain analytical and decisioning software and services which facilitate and automate a variety of consumer and commercial credit-oriented decisions. Online Information Solutions also includes our U.S. consumer credit monitoring solutions business. Financial Marketing Services revenue is principally project and subscription based and is derived from our sales of batch credit and consumer wealth information such as those that assist clients in acquiring new customers, cross-selling to existing customers and managing portfolio risk.

The International segment consists of Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific and Canada. Canada’s services are similar to our USIS offerings. Asia Pacific, Europe and Latin America are made up of varying mixes of service lines that are generally consistent with those in our USIS reportable segment. We also provide information and technology services to support lenders and other creditors in the collections and recovery management process.

Geographic Information. We currently have operations in the following countries: Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, Honduras, India, Ireland, Mexico, New Zealand, Paraguay, Peru, Portugal, Spain, the U.K., Uruguay and the U.S. We also have investments in consumer and/or commercial credit information companies through joint ventures in Brazil, Cambodia, Malaysia and Singapore. Approximately 78% of our revenue was generated in the U.S. during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

Seasonality. We experience seasonality in certain of our revenue streams. Revenue generated by the online consumer information services component of our USIS operating segment is typically the lowest during the first quarter, when consumer lending activity is at a seasonal low. Revenue generated from the Employer Services business unit within the Workforce Solutions operating segment is generally higher in the first quarter due primarily to the provision of 1095-C services that occur in the first quarter each year. Revenue generated from our financial wealth asset products and data management services in our Financial Marketing Services business is generally higher in the fourth quarter each year due to the significant portion of our annual renewals and deliveries which occur then. Mortgage related revenue is generally higher in the second and third quarters of the year due to the increase in consumer home purchasing during the summer in the U.S. Any change in the U.S. mortgage market has a corresponding impact on revenue and operating profit for our business within the Workforce Solutions and USIS operating segments.

Key Performance Indicators. Management focuses on a variety of key indicators to monitor operating and financial performance. These performance indicators include measurements of operating revenue, change in operating revenue, operating income, operating margin, net income, diluted earnings per share, cash provided by operating activities and capital expenditures. The key performance indicators for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 were as follows:

Operational and Financial Highlights

•On April 21, 2025, the Board of Directors terminated the existing share repurchase authorization and approved an authorization to repurchase up to $3 billion of shares of common stock. We repurchased 1.3 million shares of our common stock on the open market for $260.0 million, excluding brokerage commissions and excise taxes of $2.1 million, during the three months ended March 31, 2026. We did not repurchase any shares from public market transactions during the first three months of 2025.

•On February 25, 2026, the Board of Directors approved an increase in our quarterly cash dividend to $0.56 per share beginning in the first quarter of 2026. We paid out $67.1 million, or $0.56 per share, in dividends to our shareholders during the first three months of 2026.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS—THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2026 AND 2025

Consolidated Financial Results

Operating Revenue


	Three Months Ended March 31,				Change
Consolidated Operating Revenue	2026		2025		$		%
	(In millions)
Workforce Solutions	$	683.1	$	618.6	$	64.5	10	%
U.S. Information Solutions	605.6		499.9		105.7		21	%
International	360.2		323.5		36.7		11	%
Consolidated operating revenue	$	1,648.9	$	1,442.0	$	206.9	14	%

Revenue increased by $206.9 million, or 14%, for the first quarter of 2026 compared to the same period in 2025. Total revenue was positively impacted by foreign exchange rates, which increased revenue by $22.3 million, or 1%, for the first quarter of 2026 compared to the same period in 2025.

Revenue in the first quarter of 2026 increased due to revenue growth in USIS, Workforce Solutions and International. USIS revenue growth is primarily due to growth in mortgage and diversified markets revenue in Online Information Solutions. Workforce Solutions revenue growth is primarily due to growth in Verification Services, partially offset by declines in Employer Services. International revenue growth is driven by growth in all four regions in which we operate.

Operating Expenses


	Three Months Ended March 31,				Change
Consolidated Operating Expenses	2026		2025		$		%
	(In millions)
Consolidated cost of services	$	767.1	$	656.7	$	110.4	17	%
Consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses	411.0		374.9		36.1		10	%
Consolidated depreciation and amortization expense	183.1		174.6		8.5		5	%
Consolidated operating expenses	$	1,361.2	$	1,206.2	$	155.0	13	%

Cost of services increased $110.4 million in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the same period in 2025. The increase is primarily due to higher royalty costs in USIS. The impact of changes in foreign exchange rates on costs of services led to an increase of $11.6 million in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the same period in 2025.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $36.1 million for the first quarter of 2026 compared to the same period in 2025, primarily due to increases in people costs and discretionary expenses. The impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates led to an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses of $6.0 million for the first quarter of 2026 compared to the same period in 2025.

Depreciation and amortization expense increased $8.5 million for the first quarter of 2026 compared to the same period in 2025. The increase is primarily due to increased amortization of capitalized internal-use software costs resulting from technology transformation capital spending incurred previously. The impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates led to an increase in depreciation and amortization expense of $4.2 million for the first quarter of 2026 compared to the same period in 2025.

General Corporate Expense	2026		2025		$		%
	(In millions)
General corporate expense	$	178.1	$	159.4	$	18.7	12	%

Our general corporate expenses are unallocated costs that are incurred at the corporate level and include those expenses impacted by the overall management and strategic choices of the company, including shared services overhead, technology, security, data and analytics, administrative, legal, restructuring, and the portion of management incentive compensation determined by total company-wide performance.

General corporate expense increased by $18.7 million for the first quarter of 2026 compared to the same period in 2025. The increase is primarily due to higher people costs, which was primarily due to higher incentive plan costs, and higher professional fees.

LIQUIDITY AND FINANCIAL CONDITION

Management assesses liquidity in terms of our ability to generate cash to fund operating, investing and financing activities. We continue to generate substantial cash from operating activities, remain in a strong financial position and manage our capital structure to meet short- and long-term objectives including reinvestment in existing businesses and completing strategic acquisitions.

Funds generated by operating activities, our $1.5 billion five year unsecured revolving credit facility ("Revolver") and related commercial paper ("CP") program, more fully described below, are our most significant sources of liquidity. At March 31, 2026, we had $183.4 million in cash and cash equivalents, as well as $0.5 billion available to borrow under our Revolver.

Sources and Uses of Cash

We believe that our existing cash balance, liquidity available from our CP and Revolver, cash generated from ongoing operations and continued access to public or private debt markets will be sufficient to satisfy cash requirements over the next 12 months and beyond. While there was no significant change in our cash requirements as of March 31, 2026 compared to December 31, 2025, we have utilized existing CP capacity, together with cash from operating activities, to meet our current obligations.

Fund Transfer Limitations. The ability of certain of our subsidiaries and associated companies to transfer funds to the U.S. may be limited, in some cases, by certain restrictions imposed by foreign governments. These restrictions do not, individually or in the aggregate, materially limit our ability to service our indebtedness, meet our current obligations or pay dividends. As of March 31, 2026, we held $158.1 million of cash in our foreign subsidiaries.

Information about our cash flows, by category, is presented in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The following table summarizes our cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025:


	Three Months Ended March 31,				Change
Net cash provided by (used in):	2026		2025		2026 vs. 2025

Investing activities	$	(120.4)	$	(107.2)	$	(13.2)
Financing activities	$	(117.7)	$	(95.8)	$	(21.9)

Operating Activities

Cash provided by operating activities in the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased by $18.0 million compared to the prior year period primarily due to increased net income, partially offset by changes in our working capital position.

Investing Activities

Capital Expenditures


	Three Months Ended March 31,				Change
Net cash used in:	2026		2025		2026 vs. 2025

Capital expenditures*	$	(120.4)	$	(107.2)	$	(13.2)

Our capital expenditures are used for developing, enhancing and deploying new and existing software in support of our expanding product set, replacing or adding equipment, updating systems for regulatory compliance, the licensing of certain software applications, investing in system reliability, security and disaster recovery enhancements, and updating or expanding our office facilities.

Capital expenditures paid in the first three months of 2026 increased by $13.2 million from the same period in 2025 primarily due to higher capitalized software costs and spending on technology infrastructure as compared to the first quarter of 2025.

Financing Activities

Borrowings and Credit Facility Availability


	Three Months Ended March 31,				Change
Net cash used in:	2026		2025		2026 vs. 2025

Net short-term borrowings (payments)	$	214.9	$	(48.1)	$	263.0
Payments on long-term debt	$	(1.4)	$	—	$	(1.4)

Credit Facility Availability

We have access to a $1.5 billion five year unsecured revolving credit facility (the Revolver), which matures in August 2028. Borrowings under the Revolver may be used for working capital, for capital expenditures, to refinance existing debt, to finance acquisitions and for other general corporate purposes. The Revolver includes an option to request a maximum of three one-year extensions of the maturity date any time after the first anniversary of the closing date of the Revolver. In May 2025, we exercised our second option to extend the maturity date by one year, from August 2027 to August 2028, and thus have one extension option remaining. Availability of the Revolver is reduced by the outstanding principal balance of our CP notes and by any letters of credit issued under the Revolver.

Our $1.5 billion CP program has been established to allow for borrowing through the private placement of CP notes with maturities ranging from overnight to 397 days. We may use the proceeds of CP notes for general corporate purposes. The CP program is supported by our Revolver and the total amount of CP notes that may be issued is reduced by the amount of any outstanding borrowings under our Revolver and by any letters of credit issued under the facility.

As of March 31, 2026, there were $1.3 million of letters of credit outstanding, no outstanding borrowings under the Revolver and $958.5 million of outstanding CP notes. Availability under the Revolver was $0.5 billion at March 31, 2026.

At March 31, 2026, approximately 82% of our debt was fixed-rate debt and 18% was variable-rate debt. Our variable-rate debt consists of outstanding amounts under our CP program. The interest rates reset periodically, depending on the terms of the respective financing agreements. At March 31, 2026, the interest rate on our variable-rate debt ranged from 3.87% to 4.18%.

Borrowing and Repayment Activity

We primarily borrow under our CP program and Revolver as needed and as availability allows.

Net short-term payments primarily represent net borrowings or repayments of outstanding amounts under our CP program.

There were no borrowings on long-term debt for the first three months of 2026 or 2025. There were $1.4 million of payments on long-term debt for the first three months of 2026 and there were no payments on long-term debt for the first three months of 2025.

Debt Covenants. A downgrade in our credit ratings would increase the cost of borrowings under our CP program and our Revolver, and could limit or, in the case of a significant downgrade, preclude our ability to issue CP. Our outstanding indentures and comparable instruments also contain customary covenants including, for example, limits on mortgages, liens, sale/leaseback transactions, mergers and sales of assets.

The Revolver requires a maximum leverage ratio, defined as consolidated funded debt divided by consolidated EBITDA, of 3.75 to 1.0. We may also elect to increase the maximum leverage ratio by 0.5 to 1.0 (subject to a maximum leverage ratio of 4.25 to 1.0) in connection with certain material acquisitions if we satisfy certain requirements. The Revolver also permits cash in excess of $175 million to be netted against debt in the calculation of the leverage ratio, subject to certain restrictions.

As of March 31, 2026, we were in compliance with all of our debt covenants.

We do not have any credit rating triggers that would accelerate the maturity of a material amount of the outstanding debt; however, our 3.25% senior notes due 2026, 5.1% senior notes due 2027, 5.1% senior notes due 2028, 4.8% senior notes due 2029, 3.1% senior notes due 2030, 2.35% senior notes due 2031 and 7.0% senior notes due 2037 (collectively, the “Senior Notes”) contain change in control provisions. If the Company experiences a change of control or publicly announces an intention to effect a change of control and the rating on the Senior Notes is lowered by Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) and Moody’s Investors Service (“Moody’s”) below an investment grade rating within 60 days of such change of control or notice thereof, then the Company will be required to offer to repurchase the Senior Notes at a price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest.

For additional information about our debt, including the terms of our financing arrangements, basis for variable interest rates and debt covenants, see Note 5 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2025 Form 10-K.

Sources and uses of cash related to equity during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 were as follows:

- On April 21, 2025, the Board of Directors terminated the existing share repurchase authorization and approved an authorization to repurchase up to $3 billion of shares of common stock. During the first three months of 2026, we repurchased 1,344,615 shares of our common stock on the open market. As of March 31, 2026, approximately $1.8 billion was available for future purchases of common stock under our share repurchase authorization. During the first three months of 2025, we did not repurchase any shares of our common stock on the open market.

- On February 25, 2026, the Board of Directors approved an increase in our quarterly cash dividend to $0.56 per share beginning in the first quarter of 2026. We paid cash dividends to Equifax shareholders of $67.1 million, or $0.56 per share, during the three months ended March 31, 2026. We paid cash dividends to Equifax shareholders of $48.5 million, or $0.39 per share, during the three months ended March 31, 2025.

- We received cash of $10.4 million and $12.3 million during the first three months of 2026 and 2025, respectively, from the exercise of stock options and the employee stock purchase plan.

- We paid taxes of $14.5 million and $11.5 million related to the settlement of equity awards during the first three months of 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Contractual Obligations, Commercial Commitments and Other Contingencies

Our contractual obligations and commercial commitments have not changed materially from those reported in our 2025 Form 10-K. For additional information about certain obligations and contingencies, see Note 6 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

There have been no material changes with respect to our off-balance sheet arrangements from those presented in our 2025 Form 10-K.

Benefit Plans

At December 31, 2025, our U.S. Retirement Income Plan met or exceeded ERISA’s minimum funding requirements. In the future, we expect to make minimum funding contributions as required and may make discretionary contributions, depending on certain circumstances, including market conditions and our liquidity needs. We believe additional funding contributions, if any, would not prevent us from continuing to meet our liquidity needs, which are primarily funded from cash flows generated by operating activities, available cash and cash equivalents, our CP program and our Revolver.

For our non-U.S. tax-qualified retirement plans, we fund an amount sufficient to meet minimum funding requirements but no more than allowed as a tax deduction pursuant to applicable tax regulations. For our non-qualified supplementary retirement plans, we fund the benefits as they are paid to retired participants, but accrue the associated expense and liabilities in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

For additional information about our benefit plans, see Note 9 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2025 Form 10-K.

Foreign Currency

Argentina experienced multiple periods of increasing inflation rates, devaluation of the peso, and increasing borrowing rates. As such, Argentina was deemed a highly inflationary economy by accounting policymakers. Beginning in the third quarter of 2018, we have accounted for Argentina as a highly inflationary economy which resulted in the recognition of a foreign currency gain of $0.2 million and a foreign currency loss of $0.5 million that were recorded in Other income, net in our Consolidated Statements of Income during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025, respectively.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

For information about new accounting pronouncements and the potential impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements, see Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q and Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our 2025 Form 10-K.

APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP. This requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities in our Consolidated Financial Statements and the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. We believe the most complex and sensitive judgments, because of their significance to the Consolidated Financial Statements, result primarily from the need to make estimates and assumptions about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. The “Application of Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” section in the MD&A, and Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, in our 2025 Form 10-K describe the significant accounting estimates and policies used in the preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements. Although we believe that our estimates, assumptions and judgments are reasonable, they are based upon information available at the time. Actual results may differ significantly from these estimates under different assumptions, judgments or conditions.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

For information regarding our exposure to certain market risks, see “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk,” in Part II, Item 7A of our 2025 Form 10-K. There were no material changes to our market risk exposure during the three months ended March 31, 2026.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As of the end of the period covered by this report, an evaluation was carried out by the Company’s management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report. In addition, no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

FCRA Litigation

On August 3, 2022, a lawsuit was filed against us in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Georgia alleging violations of certain sections of the FCRA in connection with a previously-disclosed coding issue which impacted how some credit scores were calculated during a three-week period. The complaint seeks certification of a class of consumers whose scores were impacted and unspecified monetary damages, costs and attorneys’ fees. We dispute the allegations in the complaint and intend to defend against the claims.

Antitrust Litigation

On May 28, 2024, a lawsuit alleging violations of certain antitrust laws in connection with our Workforce Solutions business unit was filed against us in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. The complaint seeks certification of a class of all persons who purchased electronic verification of income and employment services from May 28, 2020 to present and unspecified monetary damages, costs and attorneys’ fees. We dispute the allegations in the complaint and intend to defend against the claims.

CFPB Matters

In July 2023, we received a Civil Investigative Demand (a “CID”) from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (the “CFPB”) as part of its investigation into data accuracy and dispute handling at our Workforce Solutions business unit in order to determine whether we have followed the Fair Credit Reporting Act's requirements. We received a second CID from the CFPB in March 2024 and a third CID in August 2024 as part of the same investigation. The CIDs request the production of documents and answers to written questions. We are cooperating with the CFPB in its investigation and providing responses and information on an ongoing basis. At this time, we are unable to predict the outcome of the CFPB's investigation, including whether the investigation will result in any actions or proceedings against us.

Other

Equifax has been named as a defendant in various other legal actions, including administrative claims, regulatory matters, government investigations, class actions and other litigation arising in connection with our business. Some of the legal actions include claims for substantial compensatory or punitive damages or claims for indeterminate amounts of damages. We believe we have defenses to and, where appropriate, will contest many of these matters. Given the number of these matters, some are likely to result in adverse judgments, penalties, injunctions, fines or other relief. We may explore potential settlements before a case is taken through trial because of the uncertainty and risks inherent in the litigation process.

For information regarding our accounting for legal contingencies, see Note 6 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q.
