Summary
Fidelity National Information Services, Inc. (FIS) has filed an 8-K reporting preliminary first quarter 2025 financial results and re-affirming its full-year 2025 guidance. The company anticipates its Q1 revenue to be between $2,485 million and $2,510 million, with preliminary results coming in at $2,532 million, exceeding the higher end of the outlook.
