Frequently Asked Questions

The main purpose of this 8-K filing is to announce and furnish Fidelity National Information Services, Inc.'s financial results for the second quarter of 2010, as detailed in their accompanying earnings release and financial presentation.

The detailed financial results for Q2 2010 are not included directly in the 8-K document itself. They are provided in two attached exhibits: Exhibit 99.1 (Press Release) and Exhibit 99.2 (Financial Results Presentation).

When information is 'furnished' under Item 2.02 of an 8-K, it means the company is providing the information to the public but it is not subject to the same liability under Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as if it were officially 'filed'. This distinction is important for legal and regulatory purposes but the information itself is still considered material.

No, the 8-K document itself does not contain the specific financial performance details. It only references that an earnings release and financial presentation containing these details are being provided as exhibits.
