FAIR ISAAC CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1.
Nature of Business
Fair Isaac Corporation
Fair Isaac Corporation (NYSE: FICO) (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, the “Company,” which may also be referred to in this report as “we,” “us,” “our,” or “FICO”) is a global analytics software leader. We were founded in 1956 on the premise that data, used intelligently, can improve business decisions. Today, FICO’s software and the widely used FICO
®
Score operationalize analytics, enabling thousands of businesses in more than
80
countries to uncover new opportunities, make timely decisions that matter, and execute them at scale. Most leading banks and credit card issuers rely on our solutions, as do insurers, retailers, telecommunications providers, automotive lenders, consumer reporting agencies, public agencies, and organizations in other industries. We also serve consumers through online services that enable people to access and understand their FICO
®
Scores — the standard measure of consumer credit risk in the United States (“U.S.”) — empowering them to increase financial literacy and manage their financial health.
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
We have prepared the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and the applicable accounting guidance. Consequently, we have not necessarily included all information and footnotes required for audited financial statements. In our opinion, the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, except as otherwise indicated) necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position and results of operations. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto presented in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025. The interim financial information contained in this report is not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or for the entire fiscal year.
The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of FICO and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.
Use of Estimates
We make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and the disclosures made in the accompanying notes. For example, we use estimates in determining the appropriate levels of various accruals; variable considerations included in the transaction price and standalone selling price of each performance obligation for our customer contracts; labor hours in connection with fixed-fee service contracts; the amount of our tax provision; and the realizability of deferred tax assets. We also use estimates in determining the remaining economic lives and carrying values of property and equipment and other long-lived assets. In addition, we use assumptions to estimate the fair value of reporting units and share-based compensation. Actual results may differ from our estimates.
New Accounting Pronouncements
Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In December 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-09, “
Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures
” (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation as well as disaggregated information on income tax paid. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, which means that it will be effective for our annual periods beginning with the fiscal year ending September 30, 2026. We are currently evaluating the impact that the updated standard will have on our disclosures within our consolidated financial statements.
5
Table of Contents
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03,
“Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses”
(“ASU 2024-03”). ASU 2024-03 requires disaggregated disclosure of certain income statement expenses an entity presents on the face of the income statement into specified categories in disclosures within the footnotes to the financial statements, including employee compensation, depreciation, intangible asset amortization, and certain other expenses, when applicable. The standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, which means that it will be effective for our annual periods beginning October 1, 2027, and our interim periods beginning October 1, 2028. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that the updated standard will have on our disclosures within our consolidated financial statements.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-06,
“Intangibles — Goodwill and Other — Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software”
(“ASU 2025-06”). ASU 2025-06 removes references to prescriptive and sequential software development project stages, and instead requires capitalizing software costs when both of the following occur: (1) management has authorized and committed to funding the software project, and (2) it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended, with consideration as to when significant uncertainty associated with the development activities of the software has been resolved. Additionally, ASU 2025-06 clarifies the disclosure requirements for capitalized internal-use software costs. The standard is effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, which means that it will be effective for our fiscal years beginning October 1, 2028. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact that the updated standard will have on our consolidated financial statements.
We do not expect that any other recently issued accounting pronouncements will have a significant effect on our consolidated financial statements.
2.
Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The accounting guidance establishes a three-level hierarchy for disclosure that is based on the extent and level of judgment used to estimate the fair value of assets and liabilities.
•
Level 1 — uses unadjusted quoted prices that are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Our Level 1 assets were comprised of certain marketable securities and our Level 1 liabilities included senior notes as of December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2025.
•
Level 2 — uses inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are either directly or indirectly observable through correlation with market data. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; and inputs to valuation models or other pricing methodologies that do not require significant judgment because the inputs used in the model, such as interest rates and volatility, can be corroborated by readily observable market data. We did not have any assets or liabilities that are valued using inputs identified under a Level 2 hierarchy as of December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2025.
•
Level 3 — uses one or more significant inputs that are unobservable and supported by little or no market activity, and that reflect the use of significant management judgment. Level 3 assets and liabilities include those whose fair value measurements are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar valuation techniques, and significant management judgment or estimation. We did not value any assets or liabilities using inputs identified under a Level 3 hierarchy as of December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2025.

There were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy during the quarters ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.
3.
Derivative Financial Instruments
We use derivative instruments to manage risks caused by fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. The primary objective of our derivative instruments is to protect the value of foreign-currency-denominated receivable and cash balances from the effects of volatility in foreign exchange rates that might occur prior to conversion to their functional currencies. We principally utilize foreign currency forward contracts, which enable us to buy and sell foreign currencies in the future at fixed exchange rates and economically offset changes in foreign exchange rates. We routinely enter into contracts to offset exposures denominated in the British pound, Euro, and Singapore dollar.
Foreign-currency-denominated receivable and cash balances are remeasured at foreign exchange rates in effect on the balance sheet date with the effects of changes in foreign exchange rates reported in other income (expense), net. The forward contracts are not designated as hedges and are marked to market through other income (expense), net. Fair value changes in the forward contracts help mitigate the changes in the value of the remeasured receivable and cash balances attributable to changes in foreign exchange rates. The forward contracts are short-term in nature and typically have average maturities at inception of less than
three months
.

Table of Contents
Revolving Line of Credit
We have a $
1.0
billion unsecured revolving line of credit with a syndicate of banks that matures on May 13, 2030. Borrowings under the revolving line of credit can be used for working capital and general corporate purposes and may also be used for the refinancing of existing debt, acquisitions, and the repurchase of our common stock. Interest rates on amounts borrowed under the revolving line of credit are based on (i) an adjusted base rate, which is the greatest of (a) the prime rate, (b) the Federal Funds rate plus
0.5
%, and (c) the Daily Simple Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus
1
%, plus, in each case, an applicable margin, (ii) the Daily Simple SOFR plus an applicable margin (or, if such rate is no longer available, a successor benchmark rate determined in accordance with the terms of the credit agreement), or (iii) term SOFR (without a credit spread adjustment) plus an applicable margin (or, if such rate is no longer available, a successor benchmark rate determined in accordance with the terms of the credit agreement). The applicable margin for base rate borrowings and for SOFR borrowings is determined based on our consolidated leverage ratio. The applicable margin for base rate borrowings ranges from
0
% to
0.75
% per annum and for SOFR borrowings ranges from
1
% to
1.75
% per annum. In addition, we must pay certain credit facility fees. The credit agreement contains certain restrictive covenants including a maximum consolidated leverage ratio of
3.5
to 1.0, subject to a step up to
4.0
to 1.0 following certain permitted acquisitions and subject to certain conditions, and contains other covenants typical of an unsecured credit facility.
As of December 31, 2025, we had $
415.0
million in borrowings outstanding under the revolving line of credit at a weighted-average interest rate of
5.000
%, and we were in compliance with all financial covenants under the credit agreement.
Senior Notes
On May 8, 2018, we issued $
400
million of senior notes in a private offering to qualified institutional investors (the “2018 Senior Notes”). The 2018 Senior Notes require interest payments semi-annually at a rate of
5.25
% per annum and will mature on May 15, 2026.
On December 6, 2019, we issued $
350
million of senior notes in a private offering to qualified institutional investors (the “2019 Senior Notes”). The 2019 Senior Notes require interest payments semi-annually at a rate of
4.00
% per annum and will mature on June 15, 2028.
On December 17, 2021, we issued $
550
million of additional senior notes of the same class as the 2019 Senior Notes in a private offering to qualified institutional investors (the “2021 Senior Notes”). The 2021 Senior Notes require interest payments semi-annually at a rate of
4.00
% per annum and will mature on June 15, 2028, the same date as the 2019 Senior Notes.
On May 13, 2025, we issued $
1.5
billion of senior notes in a private offering to qualified institutional investors (the “2025 Senior Notes,” and collectively with the 2018 Senior Notes, the 2019 Senior Notes and the 2021 Senior Notes, the “Senior Notes”). The 2025 Senior Notes require interest payments semi-annually at a rate of
6.00
% per annum and will mature on May 15, 2033.
The indentures for the Senior Notes contain certain covenants typical of unsecured obligations and we were in compliance as of December 31, 2025.

We derive a substantial portion of revenues from our contracts with the three major consumer reporting agencies, TransUnion, Equifax and Experian. Revenues collectively generated by agreements with these customers accounted for
51
% and
44
% of our total revenues in the quarters ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, with all
three
consumer reporting agencies each contributing more than
10
% of our total revenues in each of the quarters ended December 31, 2025 and 2024. At each of December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2025, two customers accounted for
10
% or more of total consolidated receivables.
Contract Balances
We record a receivable when we satisfy a performance obligation prior to invoicing if only the passage of time is required before payment is due or if we have an unconditional right to consideration before we satisfy a performance obligation. We record a contract asset when we satisfy a performance obligation prior to invoicing but our right to consideration is conditional. We record deferred revenue when the payment is made or due before we satisfy a performance obligation.
Receivables at December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2025 consisted of the following:

Payment terms and conditions vary by contract type, although terms generally include a requirement of payment within
30
to
60
days. In instances where the timing of revenue recognition differs from the timing of invoicing, we have determined our contracts generally do not include a significant financing component. The primary purpose of our invoicing terms is to provide customers with simplified and predictable ways of purchasing our products and services, not to provide customers with financing or to receive financing from our customers. Examples include multi-year on-premises licenses that are invoiced annually with revenue recognized upfront and invoicing at the beginning of a subscription term with revenue recognized ratably over the contract period.
Performance Obligations
Revenue allocated to remaining performance obligations represents contracted revenue that will be recognized in future periods, which is comprised of deferred revenue and amounts that will be invoiced and recognized as revenue in future periods. This does not include:
•
Usage-based revenue that will be recognized in future periods from on-premises software subscriptions;
•
Consumption-based variable fees from SaaS software that will be recognized in the distinct service period during which it is earned; and
•
Revenue from variable considerations that will be recognized in accordance with the “right-to-invoice” practical expedient, such as fees from our professional services billed based on a time and materials basis.
Revenue allocated to remaining performance obligations was $
682.2
million as of December 31, 2025, approximately
50
% of which we expect to recognize over the next
15
months and the remainder thereafter. Revenue allocated to remaining performance obligations was $
655.7
million as of September 30, 2025.

Income Taxes
Effective Tax Rate
The effective income tax rate was
17.5
% and (
1.6
)% during the quarters ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The income tax provision (benefit) during interim quarterly reporting periods is based on our estimates of the effective tax rates for the full fiscal year. The effective tax rate in any quarter can also be affected positively or negatively by adjustments that are required to be reported in the specific quarter of resolution.
The One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) of 2025 was signed into law on July 4, 2025. Included among the provisions is the ability to immediately expense domestic research and experimental (“R&E”) expenditures, as well as an election to accelerate any unamortized domestic R&E expenditures over a one- or two-year period. Both provisions are effective for FICO in fiscal 2026. The impacts of the OBBBA were reflected in FICO’s results for the quarter ended December 31, 2025.
The total unrecognized tax benefit for uncertain tax positions was estimated to be $
20.3
million and $
19.5
million at December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2025, respectively. We recognize interest expense related to unrecognized tax benefits and penalties as part of the provision for income taxes in our condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. We accrued interest of $
2.2
million and $
1.9
million related to unrecognized tax benefits as of December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2025, respectively.

Share-Based Employee Benefit Plans
We maintain the 2021 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”) under which we grant equity awards, including stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, stock unit awards and other share-based awards. All employees, consultants and advisors of FICO or any subsidiary, as well as all non-employee directors, are eligible to receive awards under the 2021 Plan. Stock option awards have a maximum term of
ten years
. In general, stock option awards and stock unit awards not subject to market or performance conditions vest annually over
four years
. Stock unit awards subject to market or performance conditions generally vest annually over
three years
based on the achievement of specified criteria.
We also maintain the 2019 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “2019 Purchase Plan”) under which we are authorized to issue up to
1,000,000
shares of our common stock to eligible employees. Eligible employees may elect to have up to
15
% of their eligible pay withheld through payroll deductions to purchase FICO common stock during semi-annual offering periods. Offering period means the approximately
six-month
periods commencing (a) on the first trading day on or after September 1 and terminating on the last trading day in the following February, and (b) on the first trading day on or after March 1 and terminating on the last trading day in the following August. The purchase price of the stock is the lower of
85
% of (i) the closing sales price of FICO common stock on the first trading day of each offering period or (ii) the closing sales price of FICO common stock on the last trading day of each offering period.
No
shares were purchased under the 2019 Purchase Plan during the quarter ended December 31, 2025.

Segment Information
We are organized into
two
reportable segments: Scores and Software. Although we sell solutions and services to a large number of end user product and industry markets, our reportable business segments reflect the primary method in which management organizes and evaluates internal financial information to make operating decisions and assess performance.
•
Scores.
This segment includes our business-to-business (“B2B”) scoring solutions and services which give our clients access to predictive credit and other scores that can be easily integrated into their transaction streams and decision-making processes. This segment also includes our business-to-consumer (“B2C”) scoring solutions, including our myFICO.com subscription offerings.
•
Software
. This segment includes pre-configured analytic and decision management solutions designed for a specific type of business need or process — such as account origination, customer management, customer engagement, fraud detection, and marketing — as well as associated professional services. This segment also includes FICO
®
Platform, a modular software offering designed to support advanced analytic and decision use cases, as well as stand-alone analytic and decisioning software that can be configured by our customers to address a wide variety of business use cases. These offerings are available to our customers as SaaS or as on-premises software.

Table of Contents
Our chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), who is our Chief Executive Officer, evaluates segment financial performance based on segment revenues, segment operating expenses in total and segment operating income. Segment operating expenses consist of direct and indirect costs principally related to personnel, facilities, IT infrastructure, depreciation and amortization, consulting and travel. Indirect costs are allocated to the segments generally based on relative segment revenues, fixed rates established by management based upon estimated expense contribution levels and other assumptions that management considers reasonable. We do not allocate broad-based incentive expense, share-based compensation expense, restructuring and acquisition-related expense, amortization expense, various corporate charges and certain other income and expense measures to our segments. These income and expense items are not allocated because they are not considered in evaluating the segment’s operating performance. Our CODM does not evaluate the financial performance of each segment based on its respective assets or capital expenditures; rather, depreciation and amortization amounts are allocated to the segments from their internal cost centers as described above.

Contingencies
We are in disputes with certain customers regarding amounts owed in connection with the sale of certain of our products and services. We also have had claims asserted by former employees relating to compensation and other employment matters. We are also involved in various other claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. We record litigation accruals for legal matters which are both probable and estimable. For legal proceedings for which there is a reasonable possibility of loss (meaning those losses for which the likelihood is more than remote but less than probable), we have determined we do not have a material exposure, either individually or in the aggregate.

The performance of our business and our securities may be adversely affected by these factors and by other factors common to other businesses and investments, or to the general economy. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made. We disclaim any intent or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Readers should carefully review the disclosures and the risk factors described in this and other documents we file from time to time with the SEC, including our Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K.
OVERVIEW
We were founded in 1956 on the premise that data, used intelligently, can improve business decisions. Today, FICO’s software and the widely used FICO
®
Score operationalize analytics, enabling thousands of businesses in more than 80 countries to uncover new opportunities, make timely decisions that matter, and execute them at scale. Most leading banks and credit card issuers rely on our solutions, as do insurers, retailers, telecommunications providers, automotive lenders, consumer reporting agencies, public agencies, and organizations in other industries. We also serve consumers through online services that enable people to access and understand their FICO
®
Scores — the standard measure of consumer credit risk in the United States (“U.S.”) — empowering them to increase financial literacy and manage their financial health.
Our business consists of two operating segments: Scores and Software.
Our Scores segment includes our business-to-business (“B2B”) scoring solutions and services which give our clients access to predictive credit and other scores that can be easily integrated into their transaction streams and decision-making processes. This segment also includes our business-to-consumer (“B2C”) scoring solutions, including our myFICO.com subscription offerings.
Our Software segment includes pre-configured analytic and decision management solutions designed for a specific type of business need or process — such as account origination, customer management, customer engagement, fraud detection, and marketing — as well as associated professional services. This segment also includes FICO

Key performance metrics for Software segment
Annual Contract Value Bookings (“ACV Bookings”)
Management regards ACV Bookings as an important indicator of future revenues, but it is not comparable to, nor is it a substitute for, an analysis of our revenues and other U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) measures. We define ACV Bookings as the average annualized value of software contracts signed in the current reporting period that generate current and future on-premises and SaaS software revenue. We only include contracts with an initial term of at least 24 months and we exclude perpetual licenses and other software revenues that are non-recurring in nature. For renewals of existing software subscription contracts, we count only incremental annual revenue expected over the current contract as ACV Bookings.
ACV Bookings is calculated by dividing the total expected contract value by the contract term in years. The expected contract value equals the fixed amount — including guaranteed minimums, if any — stated in the contract, plus estimates of future usage-based fees. We develop estimates from discussions with our customers and examinations of historical data from similar products and customer arrangements. Differences between estimates and actual results occur due to variability in the estimated usage. This variability can be the result of the economic trends in our customers’ industries, individual performance of our customers relative to their competitors, and regulatory and other factors that affect the business environment in which our customers operate. For the periods presented, ACV Bookings related to estimates of future usage-based fees was approximately 30% of the total ACV Bookings amount on an annualized basis. Differences between the initial estimates of future usage-based fees and actual results historically have not been material and we do not currently expect that they will be materially different in the future.
We disclose estimated revenue expected to be recognized in the future related to remaining performance obligations in Note 7 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. However, we believe ACV Bookings is a useful supplemental measure of our business as it includes estimated revenues and future billings excluded from Note 7, such as usage-based fees and guaranteed minimums derived from our on-premises software licenses, among others.
The following table summarizes our ACV Bookings during the periods indicated:

Annual Recurring Revenue (“ARR”)
Accounting Standards Codification Topic 606,
Revenue from Contracts with Customers
, requires us to recognize a significant portion of revenue from our on-premises software subscriptions at the point in time when the software is first made available to the customer, or at the beginning of the subscription term, despite
the fact that our contracts typically call for billing these amounts ratably over the life of the subscription. The remaining portion of our on-premises software subscription revenue including maintenance and usage-based fees are recognized over the life of the contract. This point-in-time recognition of a portion of our on-premises software subscription revenue creates significant variability in the revenue recognized period to period based on the timing of the subscription start date and the subscription term. Furthermore, this point-in-time revenue recognition can create a significant difference between the timing of our revenue recognition and the actual customer billing under the contract. We use ARR to measure the underlying performance of our subscription-based contracts and mitigate the impact of this variability. ARR is defined as the annualized revenue run-rate of on-premises and SaaS software agreements within a quarterly reporting period, and as such, is different from the timing and amount of revenue recognized. All components of our software licensing and subscription arrangements that are not expected to recur (primarily perpetual licenses) are excluded.
We calculate ARR as the quarterly recurring revenue run-rate multiplied by four.

Dollar-Based Net Retention Rate (“DBNRR”)
We consider DBNRR to be an important measure of our success in retaining and growing revenue from our existing customers. To calculate DBNRR for any period, we compare the ARR at the end of the prior comparable quarter (“base ARR”) to the ARR from that same cohort of customers at the end of the current quarter (“retained ARR”); we then divide the retained ARR by the base ARR to arrive at the DBNRR. Our calculation includes the positive impact among this cohort of customers of selling additional products, price increases and increases in usage-based fees, and the negative impact of customer attrition, price decreases, and decreases in usage-based fees during the period. However, the calculation does not include the positive impact from sales to any new customers acquired during the period. Our DBNRR may increase or decrease from period to period as a result of various factors, including the timing of new sales and customer renewal rates.
The following table summarizes our DBNRR for on-premises and SaaS software exiting each of the dates presented:

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
We are organized into two reportable segments: Scores and Software. Although we sell solutions and services into a large number of end user product and industry markets, our reportable business segments reflect the primary method in which management organizes and evaluates internal financial information to make operating decisions and assess performance.
Segment revenues, operating income, and related financial information, including disaggregation of revenue, are set forth in Note 7 and Note 11 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
Revenues

Scores
Scores segment revenues increased $68.9 million due to an increase of $66.2 million in our business-to-business scores revenue and an increase of $2.7 million in our business-to-consumer scores revenue. The increase in business-to-business scores revenue was primarily attributable to a higher unit price and an increase in volume of mortgage originations. The increase in business-to-consumer scores revenue was primarily attributable to an increase in royalties derived from scores sold indirectly to consumers through credit reporting agencies.

Cost of Revenues
Cost of revenues consists primarily of employee salaries, incentives, and benefits for personnel directly involved in delivering software products, operating SaaS infrastructure, and providing support, implementation and consulting services; overhead, facilities and data center costs; software royalty fees; consumer reporting agency data and processing services; third-party hosting fees related to our SaaS services; travel costs; and outside services.
Cost of revenues remained consistent quarter-over-prior year quarter. Cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues decreased to 17% during the quarter ended December 31, 2025 from 20% during the quarter ended December 31, 2024, primarily due to increased sales of our higher-margin Scores products.
Research and Development
Research and development expenses include personnel and related overhead costs incurred in the development of new products and services, including research of mathematical and statistical models and development of new versions of Software products.
The quarter-over-prior year quarter increase in research and development expenses of $4.8 million was primarily attributable to a $4.1 million increase in infrastructure and facilities costs, and a $2.4 million increase in personnel and labor costs, partially offset by a $1.7 million decrease in outside services and other costs. The increase in infrastructure and facilities costs was primarily attributable to increased third-party data center hosting costs. The increase in personnel and labor costs was primarily attributable to increased headcount and increased share-based compensation costs. The decrease in outside services and other costs was primarily attributable to decreased third-party contractor costs. Research and development expenses as a percentage of revenues remained consistent at 10% during each of the quarters ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.
Selling, General and Administrative
Selling, general and administrative expenses consist principally of employee salaries, incentives, commissions and benefits; travel costs; overhead costs; advertising and other promotional expenses; corporate facilities expenses; legal expenses; and business development expenses.
22
Table of Contents
The quarter-over-prior year quarter increase in selling, general and administrative expenses of $12.8 million was primarily attributable to a $9.0 million increase in personnel and labor costs, a $2.3 million increase in outside services costs, and a $1.5 million increase in marketing and other costs. The increase in personnel and labor costs was primarily attributable to increased headcount, share-based compensation costs, market base-pay adjustments, and fringe benefit costs related to our supplemental retirement and savings plan. The increase in outside services costs was primarily attributable to increased legal costs. The increase in marketing and other costs was primarily attributable to increased advertising costs, partially offset by decreased non-income tax costs and decreased bad debt costs. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues decreased to 27% during the quarter ended December 31, 2025 from 29% during the quarter ended December 31, 2024.
Interest Expense, Net
Interest expense includes interest on the senior notes issued in May 2025, December 2021, December 2019 and May 2018, as well as interest and credit agreement fees on the revolving line of credit and, for the prior year quarter, term loans. On our condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, interest expense is netted with interest income, which is derived primarily from the investment of funds in excess of our immediate operating requirements.
The quarter-over-prior year quarter increase in net interest expense of $12.5 million was primarily attributable to the $1.5 billion of 2025 Senior Notes (as defined below), partially offset by a lower average outstanding balance and a lower average interest rate on borrowings under our credit agreement during the quarter ended December 31, 2025.
Other Income (Expense), Net
Other income (expense), net consists primarily of unrealized investment gains/losses and realized gains/losses on marketable securities classified as trading securities, exchange rate gains/losses resulting from remeasurement of foreign-currency-denominated receivable and cash balances held by our various reporting entities into their respective functional currencies at period-end market rates, net of the impact of offsetting foreign currency forward contracts, and other non-operating items.
The quarter-over-prior year quarter change in other income (expense), net of $0.2 million was primarily attributable to an increase in foreign exchange rate losses resulting from remeasurement of foreign-currency-denominated receivable and cash balances held by our various reporting entities into their respective functional currencies at period-end market rates.
Income Tax Provision (Benefit)
The effective income tax rate was 17.5% and (1.6)% during the quarters ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The income tax provision (benefit) during interim quarterly reporting periods is based on our estimates of the effective tax rates for the full fiscal year. The effective tax rate in any quarter can also be affected positively or negatively by adjustments that are required to be reported in the specific quarter of resolution.
The effective tax rates for the quarters ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 were both favorably impacted by the recording of excess tax benefits relating to stock awards. The impact is dependent upon grants of share-based compensation and the future stock price in relation to the fair value of awards on the grant date. The decrease in stock price for awards that vested in December 2025 resulted in a decreased net excess tax benefit for the quarter ended December 31, 2025.

The quarter-over-prior year quarter increase in operating income of $54.5 million was primarily attributable to a $72.0 million increase in segment revenues, partially offset by a $10.0 million increase in segment operating expenses, a $3.8 million increase in corporate expenses, and a $3.6 million increase in share-based compensation expense.
At the segment level, the quarter-over-prior year quarter increase in segment operating income of $62.0 million was the result of a $64.1 million increase in our Scores segment operating income, partially offset by a $2.1 million decrease in our Software segment operating income.
The quarter-over-prior year quarter increase in Scores segment operating income of $64.1 million was due to a $68.9 million increase in segment revenue, partially offset by a $4.8 million increase in segment operating expenses. Scores segment operating income as a percentage of segment revenue increased to 88% from 86%, primarily due to higher business-to-business scores revenue driven by increased unit pricing and greater mortgage origination volumes.
The quarter-over-prior year quarter decrease in Software segment operating income of $2.1 million was due to a $5.2 million increase in segment operating expenses, partially offset by a $3.1 million increase in segment revenue. Software segment operating income as a percentage of segment revenue decreased to 28% from 30%, primarily attributable to an increase in third-party data center hosting costs and a decrease in sales of higher-margin software recognized at a point in time.
CAPITAL RESOURCES AND LIQUIDITY
Outlook
As of December 31, 2025, we had $162.0 million in cash and cash equivalents, which included $109.1 million held by our foreign subsidiaries. We believe our cash and cash equivalents balances, including those held by our foreign subsidiaries, as well as available borrowings from our $1.0 billion revolving line of credit and anticipated cash flows from operating activities, will be sufficient to fund our working and other capital requirements for at least the next 12 months and thereafter for the foreseeable future, including the $400.0 million principal payment on the 2018 Senior Notes (as defined below) due over the next 12 months. Under our current financing arrangements, we have no other significant debt obligations maturing over the next 12 months. For jurisdictions outside the U.S. where cash may be repatriated in the future, the Company expects the net impact of any repatriations to be immaterial to the Company’s overall tax liability.
In the normal course of business, we evaluate the merits of acquiring technology or businesses, or establishing strategic relationships with or investing in these businesses. We may elect to use available cash and cash equivalents to fund such activities in the future. In the event additional needs for cash arise, or if we refinance our existing debt, we may raise additional funds from a combination of sources, including the potential issuance of debt or equity securities. Additional financing might not be available on terms favorable to us, or at all. If adequate funds were not available or were not available on acceptable terms, our ability to take advantage of unanticipated opportunities or respond to competitive pressures could be limited.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities
Our primary method for funding operations and growth has been through cash flows generated from operating activities. Net cash provided by operating activities decreased to $174.1 million during the quarter ended December 31, 2025 from $194.0 million during the quarter ended December 31, 2024. The $19.9 million decrease was attributable to a $43.9 million decrease due to the timing of receipts and payments in our ordinary course of business, partially offset by an $18.1 million increase in non-cash items and a $5.9 million increase in net income.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities increased to $12.7 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2025 from $8.9 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2024. The $3.8 million increase was primarily attributable to a $2.2 million increase in purchases, net of proceeds, of marketable securities and a $2.2 million increase in capitalized internal-use software costs.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities decreased to $133.5 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2025 from $144.2 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2024. The $10.7 million decrease was primarily attributable to a $91.7 million decrease in taxes paid related to net share settlement of equity awards, partially offset by a $71.3 million decrease in proceeds, net of payments, from our revolving line of credit and term loans and an $8.6 million increase in repurchases of common stock.
Repurchases of Common Stock
In June 2025, our Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program (the “June 2025 program”), replacing our previously authorized July 2024 stock repurchase program, which was terminated prior to its expiration. The June 2025 program is open-ended and authorizes repurchases of shares of our common stock from time to time up to an aggregate cost of $1.0 billion in the open market or in negotiated transactions. The June 2025 program remains in effect until the total authorized amount is expended or until further action by our Board of Directors. As of December 31, 2025, we had $180.9 million remaining under the June 2025 program. We expended $162.7 million during the quarter ended December 31, 2025 under the June 2025 program and $159.7 million during the quarter ended December 31, 2024 under previously authorized stock repurchase programs.

Table of Contents
Revolving Line of Credit
We have a $1.0 billion unsecured revolving line of credit with a syndicate of banks that matures on May 13, 2030. Borrowings under the revolving line of credit can be used for working capital and general corporate purposes and may also be used for the refinancing of existing debt, acquisitions, and the repurchase of our common stock. Interest rates on amounts borrowed under the revolving line of credit are based on (i) an adjusted base rate, which is the greatest of (a) the prime rate, (b) the Federal Funds rate plus 0.5%, and (c) the Daily Simple Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus 1%, plus, in each case, an applicable margin, (ii) the Daily Simple SOFR plus an applicable margin (or, if such rate is no longer available, a successor benchmark rate determined in accordance with the terms of the credit agreement), or (iii) term SOFR (without a credit spread adjustment) plus an applicable margin (or, if such rate is no longer available, a successor benchmark rate determined in accordance with the terms of the credit agreement). The applicable margin for base rate borrowings and for SOFR borrowings is determined based on our consolidated leverage ratio. The applicable margin for base rate borrowings ranges from 0% to 0.75% per annum and for SOFR borrowings ranges from 1% to 1.75% per annum. In addition, we must pay certain credit facility fees. The credit agreement contains certain restrictive covenants including a maximum consolidated leverage ratio of 3.5 to 1.0, subject to a step up to 4.0 to 1.0 following certain permitted acquisitions and subject to certain conditions, and contains other covenants typical of an unsecured credit facility.
As of December 31, 2025, we had $415.0 million in borrowings outstanding under the revolving line of credit at a weighted-average interest rate of 5.000%, and we were in compliance with all financial covenants under the credit agreement.
Senior Notes
On May 8, 2018, we issued $400 million of senior notes in a private offering to qualified institutional investors (the “2018 Senior Notes”). The 2018 Senior Notes require interest payments semi-annually at a rate of 5.25% per annum and will mature on May 15, 2026. On December 6, 2019, we issued $350 million of senior notes in a private offering to qualified institutional investors (the “2019 Senior Notes”). The 2019 Senior Notes require interest payments semi-annually at a rate of 4.00% per annum and will mature on June 15, 2028. On December 17, 2021, we issued $550 million of additional senior notes of the same class as the 2019 Senior Notes in a private offering to qualified institutional investors (the “2021 Senior Notes”). The 2021 Senior Notes require interest payments semi-annually at a rate of 4.00% per annum and will mature on June 15, 2028, the same date as the 2019 Senior Notes. On May 13, 2025, we issued $1.5 billion of senior notes in a private offering to qualified institutional investors (the “2025 Senior Notes,” and collectively with the 2018 Senior Notes, the 2019 Senior Notes and the 2021 Senior Notes, the “Senior Notes”). The 2025 Senior Notes require interest payments semi-annually at a rate of 6.00% per annum and will mature on May 15, 2033. The indentures for the Senior Notes contain certain covenants typical of unsecured obligations. As of December 31, 2025, the carrying value of the Senior Notes was $2.8 billion and we were in compliance with all financial covenants under these obligations.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
We prepare our condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP. These accounting principles require management to make certain judgments and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. We periodically evaluate our estimates including those relating to revenue recognition, goodwill resulting from business combinations and other long-lived assets — impairment assessment, share-based compensation, income taxes, and contingencies and litigation. We base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable based on the specific circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates and such differences could be material to our financial condition and results of operations. Critical accounting estimates are those that involve a significant level of estimation uncertainty and have had or are reasonably likely to have a material impact on our financial condition and results of operations.
You should carefully consider the critical accounting estimates disclosed in Part II, Item 7 “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025 (“Annual Report on Form 10-K”). There have been no significant changes from the critical accounting estimates disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Market Risk Disclosures
We are exposed to market risk related to changes in interest rates and foreign exchange rates. We do not use derivative financial instruments for speculative or trading purposes.
Interest Rate
We maintain an investment portfolio consisting of bank deposits and money market funds. The funds provide daily liquidity and may be subject to interest rate risk and fall in value if market interest rates increase. We do not expect our operating expenses to be affected to any significant degree by a sudden change in market interest rates. The following table presents the principal amounts and related weighted-average yields for our investments with interest rate risk at December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2025:

We have interest rate risk with respect to our unsecured revolving line of credit. Interest rates on amounts borrowed under the revolving line of credit are based on (i) an adjusted base rate, which is the greatest of (a) the prime rate, (b) the Federal Funds rate plus 0.5%, and (c) the Daily Simple Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus 1%, plus, in each case, an applicable margin, (ii) the Daily Simple SOFR plus an applicable margin (or, if such rate is no longer available, a successor benchmark rate determined in accordance with the terms of the credit agreement), or (iii) term SOFR (without a credit spread adjustment) plus an applicable margin (or, if such rate is no longer available, a successor benchmark rate determined in accordance with the terms of the credit agreement). The applicable margin for base rate borrowings and for SOFR borrowings is determined based on our consolidated leverage ratio. The applicable margin for base rate borrowings ranges from 0% to 0.75% per annum and for SOFR borrowings ranges from 1% to 1.75% per annum. A change in interest rates on this variable rate debt impacts the interest incurred and cash flows, but does not impact the fair value of the instrument. As of December 31, 2025, we had $415.0 million in borrowings outstanding under the revolving line of credit at a weighted-average interest rate of 5.000%.

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts
We maintain a program to manage our foreign exchange rate risk on existing foreign-currency-denominated receivable and cash balances by entering into forward contracts to sell or buy foreign currencies. At period end, foreign-currency-denominated receivable and cash balances held by our various reporting entities are remeasured into their respective functional currencies at current market rates. The change in value from this remeasurement is then reported as a foreign exchange gain or loss for that period in our accompanying condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income and the resulting gain or loss on the forward contract mitigates the foreign exchange rate risk of the associated assets. All of our foreign currency forward contracts have maturity periods of less than three months. Such derivative financial instruments are subject to market risk.
The following tables summarize our outstanding foreign currency forward contracts, by currency, at December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2025:

Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
An evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of FICO’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of FICO’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Based on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO have concluded that FICO’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of December 31, 2025 to ensure that information required to be disclosed by FICO in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms. In addition, the disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed is accumulated and communicated to management, including the CEO and CFO, allowing timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1.
Legal Proceedings
FICO is a defendant in consolidated putative class action lawsuits brought in the Northern District of Illinois against FICO and the credit bureaus, Equifax, Experian and TransUnion, alleging antitrust claims in connection with the distribution of FICO Scores. On November 24, 2024, the court ruled on FICO’s and the credit bureaus’ motions to dismiss the plaintiffs’ amended complaints. The court dismissed with prejudice all claims in the lawsuit other than a Sherman Act Section 2 claim and accompanying state law claims against FICO, which were allowed to proceed through the discovery stage of the litigation. FICO intends to vigorously defend against the remaining claims in this proceeding.
Item 1A.
Risk Factors

The risks discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K could materially affect our business, financial condition and future results. The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be insignificant also may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition or operating results in the future. There have been no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K.
