The specific financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, and the 2026 outlook are detailed in the press release furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this 8-K filing. Investors should consult this exhibit for comprehensive financial data.

What is the significance of the information being 'furnished' and not 'filed'?

When information is furnished under Item 2.02 of an 8-K, it means the company is providing it to the public but it is not subject to the same liability provisions as information that is formally 'filed' with the SEC under Section 18 of the Exchange Act. It also means this information will not be automatically incorporated by reference into future SEC filings unless the company specifically states that it will be.

What does Regulation FD Disclosure (Item 7.01) mean for investors?

Regulation FD ensures that material information is disclosed to all investors simultaneously. By incorporating the results announcement under Item 7.01, Moody's is confirming that the information provided in the press release is being shared in compliance with this regulation, preventing selective disclosure.
