Feb 04

Equifax Inc. (EFX) saw its shares plummet 5.03% during Wednesday's intraday trading session, reversing earlier pre-market gains.

The sharp decline followed the company's release of its fourth-quarter 2025 financial results and forward guidance. While Equifax reported Q4 adjusted earnings per share of $2.09, beating the IBES estimate of $2.05, and revenue of $1.55 billion, surpassing the $1.53 billion estimate, investors focused on the company's outlook.

The company issued first-quarter 2026 adjusted EPS guidance in the range of $1.63 to $1.73, which fell short of the FactSet consensus estimate of $1.78. Furthermore, its full-year 2026 adjusted EPS guidance midpoint of $8.50 came in below the FactSet estimate of $8.67, despite revenue guidance being above analyst expectations.
