Summary
Equifax Inc. (EFX) filed an 8-K report on October 22, 2007, to disclose its financial results for the three and nine-month periods ending September 30, 2007. This filing primarily serves as a vehicle to attach a press release that contains these operational and financial updates. Investors should note that the information within the press release is furnished and not deemed "filed" under Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, meaning it doesn't carry the same legal implications as formally filed SEC documents unless specifically incorporated by reference into other filings.
