Summary
Moody's Corporation (MCO) filed an 8-K on April 24, 2019, to announce its financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2019. This report primarily serves as a disclosure mechanism for this information, referencing a press release (Exhibit 99.1) that contains the detailed financial outcomes and the company's outlook for the full year 2019. Investors should refer to the press release for specific figures regarding revenue, earnings, and guidance. The filing emphasizes that the information furnished is not considered "filed" for the purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, nor is it automatically incorporated into future SEC filings.
