Moody's Corporation has announced its financial results for the second quarter of 2025, reporting a 4% increase in total revenue to $1.9 billion compared to the previous year. Moody's Analytics $(MA)$ revenue rose by 11% to $888 million, while Moody's Investors Service (MIS) revenue remained flat at $1.0 billion for the quarter. Year-to-date figures show a revenue increase of 6% for Moody's Corporation, amounting to $3.8 billion, supported by a 9% rise in MA revenue to $1.7 billion and a 4% increase in MIS revenue to $2.1 billion. Diluted EPS and Adjusted Diluted EPS grew by 6% and 9%, respectively, from the prior-year period. The Effective Tax Rate for the second quarter was 25.0%, up from 23.1% the previous year, due to higher non-U.S. and state income taxes and a decrease in tax benefits related to stock-based compensation. Based on these results, the company has updated its full-year adjusted diluted EPS guidance to a range of $13.50 to $14.00, which at the midpoint implies a 10% growth compared to last year. The company attributes its performance to strong revenue growth and margin expansion across its business segments.
