Fidelity National Information Services, Inc. (FIS) filed an 8-K on February 24, 2026, detailing the financial implications of significant strategic transactions completed in January 2026.
The company acquired the Issuer Solutions business from Global Payments Inc. and divested its equity interests in Worldpay. To provide investors with a clearer understanding of ongoing operational performance post-these transactions, FIS is furnishing supplemental financial data. This supplemental information includes recalculated non-GAAP measures on an "adjusted combined company" basis for fiscal years 2024 and 2025, as well as the related quarters in 2025.
These adjusted figures are derived from unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information of FIS and the Issuer Solutions Business, prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X. Investors should note that this information is furnished and not deemed 'filed' under Section 18 of the Exchange Act, meaning it does not carry the same legal liabilities and will not be automatically incorporated into future SEC filings.
