FISV 10-Q Quarterly Reports

Fiserv Inc. reported a decrease in total revenue for the second quarter and the first six months of 2026 compared to the same periods in 2025. This decline was primarily driven by lower product revenue and a decrease in anticipation revenue in Argentina due to lower inflation and interest rates, as well as reduced hardware and data analytics sales. Despite the revenue decline, the company successfully extinguished a significant portion of its debt, resulting in a substantial pre-tax gain on early debt extinguishment in the second quarter of 2026. The company also continues to execute its 'One Fiserv' transformation plan, which involves investments in personnel, technology, and operational efficiencies, though these initiatives have contributed to higher operating expenses. Financially, the company saw a significant drop in operating income and net income compared to the prior year. This was influenced by increased operating expenses related to the "One Fiserv" transformation, higher personnel costs, and reduced high-margin license and data analytics revenue. The company's liquidity remains robust, supported by operating cash flows and available credit facilities, despite the decrease in cash from operations. Fiserv also completed several strategic acquisitions in 2025, integrating them into its Merchant and Financial segments, and is pursuing a divestiture of its student loan servicing business.

Fiserv, Inc. reported a decrease in total revenue for the first quarter of 2026 compared to the prior year period, primarily driven by a decline in product revenue and certain data and analytics sales. While the Merchant segment remained flat, the Financial segment experienced a revenue decrease. Expenses saw a significant increase, impacting operating income which declined by 34% year-over-year. This rise in expenses is attributed to costs associated with the "One Fiserv" transformation program, increased personnel costs, and higher data processing expenses. Despite these challenges, the company's effective income tax rate was favorably impacted by a substantial benefit from releasing a valuation allowance on foreign net operating loss carryforwards. The company's liquidity remains solid, supported by operating cash flow and available credit facilities. Acquisitions continue to be a focus, with several integrations completed in the previous year.

However, for the nine-month period, operating income saw an 8% increase. The company also saw a substantial increase in interest expense, reflecting its debt financing activities, including significant senior note issuances. Fiserv continues to execute its "One Fiserv" action plan, focusing on client-centricity, innovation, and disciplined capital allocation.

Fiserv, Inc. (FISV) reported a 7% increase in total revenue for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, reaching $5.2 billion and $15.2 billion, respectively. This growth was primarily driven by increased processing and services revenue across its Merchant and Financial segments, with notable contributions from the Small Business and Digital Payments sub-segments. Despite revenue growth, net income attributable to Fiserv, Inc. decreased by 41% to $564 million for the third quarter, largely impacted by a significant $570 million non-cash impairment charge related to an equity method investment in the Wells Fargo Merchant Services alliance, which has announced its non-renewal.

Financially, Fiserv maintained a solid liquidity position with $1.2 billion in cash and cash equivalents and significant capacity under its revolving credit facility. The company also actively managed its capital structure, issuing $2.0 billion in senior notes while continuing its share repurchase program. While the company faced higher interest expenses due to increased borrowings and variable rates, the overall financial performance indicates strong operational execution and a healthy trajectory.

Fiserv Inc. reported a strong third quarter of 2023, with total revenue increasing by 8% year-over-year to $4.87 billion. This growth was driven by robust performance across its segments, particularly in the Acceptance segment, which saw a 12% revenue increase due to higher global merchant acquiring payment volumes. Profitability also saw a significant improvement, with operating income surging by 76% to $1.5 billion and net income attributable to Fiserv, Inc. nearly doubling to $952 million. This enhanced profitability was supported by effective expense management, operating leverage, and a notable pre-tax gain of $177 million from the sale of its financial reconciliation business.

Despite rising interest expenses, the company demonstrated effective expense management, leading to a 10% increase in operating income. Diluted EPS saw a decrease from $1.02 to $0.89, largely due to the absence of significant one-time gains seen in the prior year's comparable period. The company continues to actively manage its capital structure, with substantial share repurchases and a new senior note issuance to fund general corporate purposes. Financially, Fiserv maintained a strong liquidity position, with significant cash flow generated from operations, which increased by 39% year-over-year.

This top-line growth translated into a substantial 78% surge in operating income to $846 million and a 120% increase in net income attributable to Fiserv, Inc. to $669 million. The company also benefited from a significant $147 million pre-tax gain from the sale of certain merchant contracts related to a joint venture termination, which, along with reduced acquisition and integration expenses, contributed to improved profitability.

Fiserv Inc. reported strong financial performance for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, with total revenue increasing by 9% to $11.97 billion and net income attributable to Fiserv, Inc. rising by 52% to $1.00 billion. This growth was driven by a 10% increase in revenue for the third quarter, largely due to the recovery of transaction volumes in its merchant acquiring and payment-related businesses following the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. The company also saw significant operating income growth across its segments, particularly in the Acceptance segment, indicating improved operational leverage and expense management. Acquisitions remain a key strategic initiative, with several notable purchases in 2021, including Pineapple Payments and Ondot, aimed at expanding digital capabilities and market reach. Fiserv also continued its share repurchase program, demonstrating a commitment to returning value to shareholders. The company maintained a strong liquidity position, with substantial operating cash flow and an available revolving credit facility, despite some increases in debt levels associated with its growth strategy.

Fiserv, Inc. reported strong performance in its Q2 2021 earnings, with total revenue increasing by 17% to $4.1 billion for the quarter and 8% to $7.8 billion for the first six months. This growth was driven by a significant rebound in merchant acquiring and payment volumes, recovering from COVID-19 impacts seen in the prior year. Net income attributable to Fiserv, Inc. saw a substantial rise to $269 million for the quarter, up from $2 million in Q2 2020, and $573 million for the six-month period, up from $394 million in the prior year.

Fiserv Inc. reported mixed financial results for the first quarter of 2021, with total revenue remaining relatively flat compared to the prior year, slightly decreasing by $14 million to $3.755 billion. This was primarily due to a decline in processing and services revenue, partially offset by growth in product revenue. Net income attributable to Fiserv, Inc. saw a significant decrease of 22% to $304 million, or $0.45 per diluted share, compared to $392 million, or $0.57 per diluted share, in the prior year. This decline was largely influenced by a significant gain on the sale of a business recorded in the first quarter of 2020, which boosted prior-year results, and increased expenses in the current period. Despite the net income decrease, the company's operating income within its key Acceptance and Fintech segments showed strong growth, indicating underlying business strength. The company also continued its strategic acquisitions, including the acquisition of Ondot Systems and Radius8, aiming to expand its digital capabilities and merchant transaction offerings.

Fiserv, Inc. reported solid financial performance for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, with total revenue increasing significantly by 79% to $11.02 billion, largely driven by the acquisition of First Data Corporation in July 2019. Net income attributable to Fiserv, Inc. for the same period was $658 million. The company's operating income also saw an increase, reflecting strong performance across its key segments, though operating margin saw some compression in the nine-month period due to integration costs. The company has strategically managed its debt, issuing new senior notes and using proceeds for debt repayment. Despite the ongoing economic uncertainties related to the COVID-19 pandemic, Fiserv has maintained robust operating cash flows, demonstrating resilience. Management's focus remains on integrating acquired businesses, driving revenue growth, enhancing client relationships, and delivering innovation.

Fiserv Inc. reported significant revenue growth in the second quarter and first six months of 2020, largely driven by the acquisition of First Data. Total revenue surged by 129% in Q2 2020 and 140% in the first six months of 2020 compared to the prior year periods. However, net income attributable to Fiserv, Inc. saw a substantial decrease, with net income falling by 99% in Q2 2020 and 12% in the first six months of 2020. This was primarily due to increased expenses, including amortization of acquired intangible assets and integration costs related to the First Data acquisition. The company experienced a significant impact from the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly in its merchant acquiring and payment-related businesses, which are transaction-based. While volumes began to recover in May and June 2020, the ongoing uncertainty remains a key factor. Despite revenue growth, the company's operating income and margin were negatively affected in the second quarter, though the six-month performance showed a slight increase in operating income. Fiserv also completed several smaller acquisitions in 2020 and divested a portion of its Investment Services business, generating a gain on sale. The company's liquidity remains strong, supported by operating cash flow and available credit facilities, though it is actively managing its debt and capital structure.

Fiserv Inc.'s first quarter 2020 report (filed May 8, 2020) shows a significant increase in total revenue, up 151% year-over-year to $3.77 billion. This substantial growth was primarily driven by the acquisition of First Data Corporation in July 2019, which contributed $2.275 billion in revenue. Despite the revenue surge, net income attributable to Fiserv, Inc. rose more modestly to $392 million from $225 million in the prior year's quarter. The company experienced a significant increase in expenses, including higher cost of processing and services, cost of product, and selling, general, and administrative expenses, largely due to the integration of First Data and related amortization of acquired intangible assets. The company also noted a $431 million gain on the sale of its Investment Services business, which boosted net income, but also incurred significant restructuring charges related to the First Data integration. The report also highlights the emerging impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, noting a decrease in payment volumes in the latter half of March 2020. Investors should note the substantial revenue growth powered by the First Data acquisition, alongside the associated increase in operating expenses and integration costs. The company's ability to manage these costs and realize synergies from the acquisition will be crucial. Furthermore, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on transaction volumes and economic activity remains a key area of focus for the near future.

Fiserv Inc.'s third quarter 2019 10-Q filing reveals significant changes driven by the completion of the First Data acquisition on July 29, 2019. This transformative event nearly tripled the company's total assets and substantially increased its revenue and operational scale. While this acquisition drove a large increase in total revenue, it also came with increased expenses, notably higher interest expense due to the debt financing used for the acquisition, and significant amortization of acquired intangible assets. Despite the integration challenges and increased debt load, the core Fiserv businesses (Payments and Financial segments) continued to show modest revenue growth. The company is focused on integrating First Data and realizing synergies, which will be critical for future profitability and debt reduction. Investors should monitor the integration progress and the company's ability to manage its enlarged debt and operational complexity.

Fiserv, Inc. reported solid revenue growth in the second quarter of 2019, with total revenue increasing by 6% year-over-year to $1.51 billion. This growth was primarily driven by the Payments segment, which saw a 10% increase, benefiting from the recent acquisition of Elan Financial Services and strong performance in card services and electronic payments. The Financial segment experienced more modest growth. Despite revenue increases, net income for the quarter declined to $223 million from $251 million in the prior year, impacted by increased interest expenses and debt financing activities related to the significant pending acquisition of First Data Corporation. For the six-month period, total revenue grew by 5% to $3.01 billion, but net income saw a substantial decrease to $448 million from $674 million in the same period last year. This decline is largely attributable to higher interest expenses, debt financing costs associated with the First Data acquisition, and the absence of a large gain on sale of business recorded in the prior year. Investors should closely monitor the integration of the First Data acquisition, as it represents a major strategic move that will significantly impact Fiserv's financial structure and future growth prospects. The company also reported a substantial increase in long-term debt, reflecting the financing for the First Data deal.

Fiserv Inc.'s first quarter 2019 results show a 4% increase in total revenue, reaching $1,502 million, driven by growth in the Payments segment. However, net income saw a significant decrease to $225 million from $423 million in the prior year, primarily due to a substantial gain on the sale of a business in Q1 2018 which did not recur in 2019. Operating income also declined by 39%, largely influenced by this gain/loss comparison and increased expenses related to the pending acquisition of First Data Corporation. The company is actively preparing for this transformative $22 billion all-stock acquisition, which is expected to close in the second half of 2019 and is being financed through significant debt facilities. Despite the year-over-year drop in net income, the underlying operational performance in the Payments segment remains robust with a 9% revenue increase, partly due to the acquisition of Elan Financial Services. The Financial segment experienced a slight revenue decline, mainly due to the prior year's divestiture of the Lending Solutions business. Investors should monitor the integration progress and synergy realization from the First Data acquisition, as well as the impact of increased debt levels on future financial performance. The company has adopted new lease accounting standards (ASC 842) which impacts its balance sheet but not significantly its income statement or cash flows.

Fiserv Inc. (FISV) reported steady revenue growth for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, with total revenue increasing by 2% to $4.27 billion compared to the same period in 2017. This growth was primarily driven by the Payments segment, which saw a 7% increase in revenue, offsetting a 4% decline in the Financial segment largely due to recent dispositions. Profitability metrics showed a significant improvement in operating income, which rose by 19% to $1.32 billion for the nine-month period. This was largely due to a substantial gain on the sale of a 55% interest in its Lending Solutions business, which contributed $227 million. Diluted earnings per share also saw a notable increase to $2.16 from $1.62 in the prior year period. The company also completed a significant debt refinancing in September 2018, issuing $2.0 billion in senior notes and repaying existing debt.

Fiserv, Inc. (FISV) reported solid revenue growth for the six months ended June 30, 2018, with total revenue increasing by 3% to $2.86 billion. This growth was primarily driven by a 7% increase in the Payments segment, bolstered by card services and biller solutions, and supported by contributions from recent acquisitions. The Financial segment experienced a revenue decline, mainly due to prior divestitures, though account processing businesses showed some growth. Despite revenue growth, operating income for the quarter ended June 30, 2018, saw a slight decrease of 4%, impacted by higher selling, general, and administrative expenses and a loss on the sale of businesses. However, for the six-month period, operating income surged by 31% to $966 million, largely due to a significant gain on the sale of a 55% interest in its Lending Solutions business. Diluted earnings per share for the six months increased substantially to $1.61 from $1.08 in the prior year, benefiting from this divestiture gain. The company also adopted new accounting standards, including ASC 606 for revenue recognition, which impacted prior period comparability but did not materially affect cash flows. Fiserv's balance sheet remains robust with significant goodwill and intangible assets, and the company continues to manage its debt effectively.

Fiserv, Inc. (FISV) reported strong financial performance for the first quarter ended March 31, 2018. Total revenue increased by 3% year-over-year to $1,440 million. This growth was primarily driven by a 6% increase in the Payments segment, supported by higher transaction volumes and recent acquisitions. The Financial segment experienced a slight 1% revenue decline, impacted by a prior year divestiture and lower software license revenue. Net income saw a substantial increase of 74% to $563 million before income taxes, significantly boosted by a $232 million gain from the sale of a 55% interest in its Lending Solutions business. Diluted earnings per share (EPS) more than doubled to $1.00, up from $0.56 in the prior year, also benefiting from the gain on sale. The company continues to execute on its strategic priorities, focusing on high-quality revenue growth, enhancing client relationships, and driving innovation. Operating cash flow, while down 20% year-over-year to $372 million, remains robust, providing ample resources for operations and strategic investments. The company also announced a two-for-one stock split effective in March 2018, with all historical share and per share data retroactively adjusted.

For the nine-month period, net income was $700 million, or $3.23 per diluted share, a slight decrease from $715 million, or $3.18 per diluted share, in the same period of 2016. The company completed four strategic acquisitions totaling $383 million in the first nine months of 2017, integrating them into its Payments and Financial Institution Services segments to expand its digital and payment solutions offerings. Operating expenses increased slightly, in line with revenue growth, but operating margins showed mixed performance between segments. The Payments segment saw improved operating margins, driven by scalable revenue growth and operating leverage, while the Financial segment experienced some pressure due to reduced contract termination fees and software license revenue. The company maintained strong operating cash flow of $1.02 billion for the nine-month period, though this was a slight decrease from the prior year, primarily due to lower dividends from an unconsolidated affiliate. Fiserv continues to prioritize strategic initiatives including portfolio management, client relationship enhancement, operational efficiency, and innovation, while managing its debt and share repurchase programs.

Fiserv Inc. reported steady financial performance for the six months ended June 30, 2017, with total revenue increasing by 3% to $2.78 billion compared to the same period in 2016.

The company successfully managed its expenses, with total expenses increasing by 3% but decreasing as a percentage of revenue, partially benefiting from a gain on the sale of its Australian item processing business. The company's balance sheet shows total assets of $9.68 billion and total liabilities of $7.29 billion as of June 30, 2017. Fiserv maintained a strong liquidity position, with $299 million in cash and cash equivalents and $1.2 billion available under its revolving credit facility.

Net income, however, saw a decrease to $247 million from $289 million in the prior year, primarily due to a significant one-time gain from an unconsolidated affiliate in the prior year's first quarter. Diluted earnings per share were $1.13, down from $1.27 in the prior year, also impacted by the prior year's affiliate gain. The company maintained a strong liquidity position with ample cash and availability under its revolving credit facility.

Fiserv, Inc. reported solid top-line growth in its third quarter and the first nine months of 2016, with total revenue increasing by 5% in both periods, driven by strong performance in its Payments segment.

Despite increased expenses, particularly in Selling, General & Administrative, Fiserv demonstrated improved operating margins due to revenue growth and operational efficiencies. Net income for the nine-month period saw a significant boost from a large gain on the sale of a business interest by its unconsolidated affiliate, StoneRiver, though this was partially offset by an impairment loss on the same investment. Fiserv's liquidity position remains strong, supported by substantial operating cash flow and an available revolving credit facility. The company actively managed its capital through acquisitions and share repurchases, while its debt levels remained manageable. Management highlights ongoing strategic initiatives focused on building high-quality revenue, enhancing client relationships, and driving innovation, positioning the company to benefit from key industry trends such as the increasing demand for digital payment solutions and the outsourcing of technology by financial institutions.

This growth was attributed to higher transaction volumes and contributions from recent acquisitions.

The company also generated substantial operating cash flow of $509 million, a 47% increase year-over-year, which was partly due to significant cash dividends received from StoneRiver. Despite increased debt from acquisitions, the company maintained compliance with its debt covenants. Fiserv's strategic focus on integrated technology and services, client relationship enhancement, and innovation appears to be driving positive financial results.

Financially, Fiserv strengthened its balance sheet with new debt financing, including a $900 million term loan and an amendment extending the maturity of its revolving credit facility.
