Summary

Summary of the 8-K filed May 17, 2024. Cited figures are marked; the original filing is the authoritative source.

On May 17, 2024, Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. furnished under Item 7.01 (Regulation FD Disclosure) its May 2024 investor presentation, posted to its investor relations website and attached as Exhibit 99.1.

The filing itself contains no new financial results; the presentation is the substance. It is furnished rather than filed, so it is not subject to Section 18 liability. The presentation reviews the company's long-term track record and sets out its fiscal 2024 to 2026 objectives: organic recurring revenue growth of 5-8%a, recurring revenue growth in constant currency of 7-9%, adjusted operating income margin expansion of 50+ basis points per year, and adjusted earnings per share growth of 8-12%.

It reports fiscal third-quarter 2024 recurring revenues of $1,126 millionb, up 4% in constant currency, total revenues of $1,726 million, and adjusted earnings per share of $2.23, up 9%. Management described fiscal 2024 guidance as recurring revenue growth at the low end of 6-9%, adjusted EPS growth at the middle of 8-12%, and closed sales of $280 million to $320 million.

The presentation also notes a $8.2 millionc litigation settlement charge and a $7.0 million restructuring-related asset impairment in the third quarter, both excluded from adjusted measures. It states that free cash flow conversion was 108% on a last-twelve-months basis, and that the fiscal 2024 dividend of $3.20 per share is subject to board approval.
