Revenue reached $1,245.7 million, up from $1,095.7 million a year earlier, while net income attributable to TransUnion rose to $397.1 million from $148.1 million, mainly due to a $225.5 million gain on a step acquisition.

Insights

Strong Q1 profit driven by one-time gain; leverage edges higher on Mexico deal.

TransUnion delivered Q1 2026 revenue of $1,245.7 million, above $1,095.7 million last year, with segment Adjusted EBITDA rising to $478.6 million. Core operations produced solid cash from operating activities of $84.2 million, compared with $52.5 million a year earlier.

Net income attributable to TransUnion jumped to $397.1 million, but this was largely driven by a non-taxable $225.5 million gain on remeasuring its prior 26% stake in Trans Union de Mexico as part of a step acquisition. The acquisition added $547.5 million of goodwill and $576.0 million of identifiable intangibles, reflecting expectations for future growth and synergies.

To fund the roughly $659.7 million cash portion of the Mexico deal, the company drew on its Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility, lifting total debt to $5,607.4 million and long-term debt to $5,402.4 million. As of March 31, 2026, TransUnion remained in compliance with all debt covenants and still had $688.1 million authorized for share repurchases, indicating continued financial flexibility despite higher leverage.

step acquisition financial
"We accounted for the current transaction as a step acquisition in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations."
noncontrolling interest financial
"The remaining approximately 6% equity interest represents a noncontrolling interest in the net assets acquired and was valued based on the purchase price."
The portion of a business owned by investors other than the controlling owner when one company has control of another; it represents outside shareholders’ share of the subsidiary’s assets and profits. For investors, it matters because those outside claims reduce the amount of profit and net assets attributable to the parent owner — similar to saying part of a pizza belongs to someone else — and thus affects earnings, book value and valuation.
Adjusted EBITDA financial
"Our CODM uses the profit measure of Adjusted EBITDA for our segments to allocate resources and assess performance of our businesses."
Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.
variable interest entity financial
"We are required to consolidate any VIE if we are the primary beneficiary of the VIE."
A variable interest entity (VIE) is a company structure where one party controls another company’s operations and economic outcomes through contracts or special arrangements instead of owning a majority of its voting shares. For investors, VIEs matter because the controlling party’s financial results, debts and risks can appear in the controller’s reports even though ownership looks separate, so understanding VIEs helps assess true exposure, governance limits and transparency—like spotting a puppet controlled by strings rather than direct ownership.
cash flow hedges financial
"We have designated these swap agreements as cash flow hedges."
A cash flow hedge is an accounting label companies use when they enter financial contracts—like currency or interest-rate agreements—to protect expected future cash payments or receipts from unpredictable moves. For investors, it signals that the company is trying to smooth out future cash variability (think of locking in a price to avoid surprises), which can reduce reported profit swings but also means the company has exposure to derivative instruments and their associated risks.

TRANSUNION AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
(Tabular amounts in millions, except per share amounts)
1. Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of TransUnion and subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements and, in our opinion, include all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair statement of the interim periods presented. As a result of displaying amounts in millions, rounding differences may exist in the financial statements and footnote tables. The interim results presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2026. The Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet data for the year ended December 31, 2025 was derived from audited financial statements. Therefore, these unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 27, 2026.
Unless the context indicates otherwise, any reference in this report to the “Company,” “we,” “our,” “us,” and “its” refers to TransUnion and its consolidated subsidiaries, collectively.
For the periods presented, TransUnion does not have any material assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses or operations of any kind other than its ownership investment in TransUnion Intermediate Holdings, Inc.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements of TransUnion include the accounts of TransUnion and all of its controlled subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.
Investments in Affiliated Companies
Investments in nonmarketable unconsolidated entities in which the Company is able to exercise significant influence are accounted for using the equity method. Investments in nonmarketable unconsolidated entities in which the Company is not able to exercise significant influence, our “Cost Method Investments,” are accounted for at our initial cost, minus any impairment, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer.
Variable Interest Entities
At inception, we determine whether an entity in which we have made an investment or with which we have other variable interest arrangements is considered a variable interest entity (“VIE”). We are required to consolidate any VIE if we are the primary beneficiary of the VIE. We are the primary beneficiary of a VIE if we have the power to direct activities that most significantly affect the economic performance of the VIE and have the obligation to absorb a portion of the losses or benefits that are significant to the VIE. If we are not the primary beneficiary of the VIE, we account for the investment or other variable interests in the VIE in accordance with other applicable GAAP. When events or circumstances change our variable interests or relationships with any of these entities, we reassess our determination of whether they are a VIE and, if so, whether we are the primary beneficiary. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we have a variable interest in one unconsolidated VIE with a current exposure of loss of approximately $22.4 million and $49.5 million, respectively, consisting of the current carrying value of our equity investment and various notes and accounts receivable from this entity.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported. We believe that the estimates used in preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements are reasonable, based upon information available to management at this time. These estimates and judgments affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date, as well as the amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting period. Estimates are inherently uncertain and actual results could differ materially from the estimated amounts.

Share Repurchase Plan
On February 11, 2025, our Board of Directors (our “Board”) authorized the repurchase of up to $500.0 million of our common stock (the “2025 Repurchase Plan”). On October 22, 2025, the Board approved an increase to the share repurchase plan authorization up to $1.0 billion (including amounts repurchased as of such date under the 2025 Repurchase Plan). Repurchases may be made from time to time at management’s discretion, at prices management considers to be attractive, through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, including pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 plan, hybrid open market repurchases or an accelerated share repurchase transaction, subject to availability. Open market purchases are conducted in accordance with the limitations set forth in Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and other applicable legal requirements. We have no obligation to repurchase additional shares, and the timing, actual number and value of the shares that are repurchased, if any, are at the discretion of management. The 2025 Repurchase Plan does not have an expiration date.
Repurchased shares are retired, resulting in a reduction to common stock at par with the remainder to additional paid-in capital. Once repurchased, the shares are returned to the status of authorized but unissued shares of the Company and reduce the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for purposes of calculating basic and diluted earnings per share. During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company repurchased approximately 171,000 and 63,000 shares of common stock, respectively, for a total of $12.1 million and $5.4 million, respectively, including commissions and excise taxes, under the 2025 Repurchase Plan. The average price paid per share for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 was $70.92 and $84.86, respectively. As of March 31, 2026, $688.1 million remains available for repurchases under the 2025 Repurchase Plan.
Trade Accounts Receivable
We base our allowance for doubtful accounts estimate on our historical loss experience, our current expectations of future losses, current economic conditions, an analysis of the aging of outstanding receivables and customer payment patterns, and specific reserves for customers in adverse financial condition or for existing contractual disputes.
The following is a roll-forward of the allowance for doubtful accounts for the periods presented:

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
On July 30, 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets. This ASU states that in developing reasonable and supportable forecasts as part of estimating expected credit losses, an entity may elect a practical expedient that assumes that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the asset. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods on a prospective basis. We have adopted this ASU for interim periods beginning in fiscal year 2026. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
On November 4, 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-04), Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. This ASU requires disclosure within the notes to financial statements of specific information about certain costs and expenses including more detailed disclosures of certain categories of expenses such as employee compensation, depreciation and intangible asset amortization that are components of existing expense captions presented on the face of the income statement. The update is effective for annual periods for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027 on a prospective or retrospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently assessing the impact that adopting this ASU would have on our consolidated financial statements.
On September 18, 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software. This ASU removes all references to prescriptive and sequential software development stages (referred to as “project stages”) and instead requires an entity to start capitalizing software costs when management has authorized and committed to funding the software project and it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. Additional updates include changes to accounting for website development costs and certain disclosure requirements. This ASU will be effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual reporting period. This ASU permits an entity to apply the new guidance using either a prospective transition approach, a modified transition approach that is based on the status of the project and whether software costs were capitalized before the date of adoption, or a retrospective transition approach. We are currently assessing the impact that adopting this ASU would have on our consolidated financial statements.
On November 25, 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-09, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), Hedge Accounting Improvements. Among other changes, this ASU introduces an alternative hedge accounting model for cash flow hedges of interest payments on choose-your-rate debt instruments, allowing entities to specify the alternative interest rate indexes and tenors that may be selected as being hedged, without discontinuing hedge accounting. This update is effective for annual reporting periods for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within those annual reporting periods, on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently assessing the impact that adopting this ASU would have on our consolidated financial statements.
On December 8, 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow Scope Improvements. This ASU provides additional clarification on interim disclosure requirements, including a comprehensive list of interim disclosures required by GAAP. Further, this ASU includes a new disclosure principle that requires entities to disclose events since the end of the last annual reporting period that have had a material impact. This includes material events and/or changes to items not listed as a required interim disclosure in Topic 270. This ASU is effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 31, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently assessing the impact that adopting this ASU would have on our financial statements.
2. Business Acquisitions
2026 Acquisition
Trans Union de Mexico
On March 2, 2026, we acquired approximately a 68% equity interest in Trans Union de México, S.A., S.I.C., (“Trans Union de Mexico”) for total cash consideration of approximately $659.7 million. The acquisition was funded with proceeds from our Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility and cash on hand. See Note 10, “Debt,” for additional information about our Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility. Prior to the transaction, we owned approximately a 26% equity interest that was accounted for under the equity method. Our total equity interest is now approximately 94%, representing a controlling financial interest which resulted in the consolidation of Trans Union de Mexico. The remaining approximately 6% equity interest represents a noncontrolling interest in the net assets acquired and was valued based on the purchase price of the 68% equity interest. There was no contingent consideration related to this transaction.

Table of Contents
Trans Union de Mexico is the largest consumer credit bureau in Mexico. Trans Union de Mexico has longstanding relationships with major financial institutions in Mexico and maintains broad population coverage supported by data from multiple verticals, including financial services, retail and telecommunications. The business operates in a sizable and growing market characterized by increasing digital adoption and expanding credit usage across the Mexican economy.
Prior to March 2, 2026, Trans Union de Mexico was recorded as an equity method investment and the pro rata share of its earnings or losses were recorded within non-operating income and (expense), net in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. We accounted for the current transaction as a step acquisition in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. Accordingly, we remeasured our initial 26% investment at a fair value of $247.4 million based on the purchase price of the 68% equity interest, resulting in a non-taxable gain of $225.5 million recorded within gain on acquisition of affiliate in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
We engaged in business activities with Trans Union de Mexico prior to the date of acquisition that were not material and received dividends from our equity method investment. The results of operations of Trans Union de Mexico subsequent to the acquisition date and the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are included within our Latin America reporting unit in our International segment.
Acquisition Costs
We recognized cumulative transaction costs related to the acquisition of $18.8 million, including $6.4 million and $1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, which we have recorded within other income and (expense), net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. These costs include investment banker fees, legal, due diligence and other external costs.
Purchase Price Allocation
The total consideration for this acquisition is preliminary, pending final customary purchase price adjustments. The valuation of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, including the valuation of intangible assets, income taxes and goodwill, among other items, has not yet been finalized and is based on management’s best estimates and assumptions as of March 31, 2026. We will complete the analysis of the total purchase consideration and the allocation of the final purchase price once we obtain the necessary information, which we expect to do within one year from the acquisition date.
The purchase price of the acquisition exceeded the fair value estimate of the net assets acquired due primarily to expected future revenue growth opportunities, synergies, operating efficiencies and the assembled workforce. None of the goodwill is tax deductible.
The table below summarizes the elements of purchase consideration for the acquisition:

In determining the fair value of the identifiable intangible assets, we utilized various forms of the income approach, depending on the asset being valued. The estimation of fair value requires significant judgment related to cash flow forecasts, discount rates reflecting the risk inherent in each cash flow stream, competitive trends, market comparables and other factors. Other inputs included historical data, current and anticipated market conditions, and growth rates.
The intangible assets were valued using the following valuation approaches:
Database and credit files
Trans Union de Mexico’s database and credit files were deemed to be the primary asset, which we valued using the multi-period excess-earnings method, a form of the income approach, which required the application of judgment for significant

Table of Contents
assumptions. Significant assumptions included projected revenue and EBITDA margins, the rate of obsolescence, charges for related assets and the discount rate.
Customer relationships
Customer relationships were valued using the lost income method, a form of the income approach, which required the application of judgment for significant assumptions. Significant assumptions included the length of time to recreate the customer relationships, projected revenues and EBITDA margins and discount rates.
Other identifiable intangible assets
Other identifiable intangible assets include trade names and trademarks and developed technology, which are not material. Both trade names and trademarks and developed technology were valued using the relief from royalty method.
Unaudited pro-forma financial information
The supplemental pro-forma financial information has been prepared using the acquisition method of accounting and is based on the historical financial information of TransUnion and Trans Union de Mexico, assuming the transaction occurred on January 1, 2025. The supplemental pro-forma financial information does not necessarily represent what the combined companies' revenue or results of operations would have been had the acquisition of Trans Union de Mexico been completed on January 1, 2025, nor is it intended to be a projection of future operating results of the combined company. It also does not reflect any operating efficiencies or potential cost savings that might be achieved from synergies of combining TransUnion and Trans Union de Mexico.
The unaudited supplemental pro-forma financial information has been calculated after applying TransUnion’s accounting policies and adjusting the results of the combined company to reflect moving the gain on our previous equity method investment discussed above into the first quarter of 2025, incremental amortization expense resulting from the fair value adjustments for acquired intangible assets, an increase in interest expense resulting from the external debt borrowed by TransUnion to fund the acquisition, removal of the historical equity earnings recorded for our previous 26% ownership interest, moving the 2025 and 2026 acquisition costs incurred in connection with the transaction back to the first quarter of 2025 and the corresponding income tax impact of these adjustments.

2025 Acquisition
Monevo
In October 2021, we acquired a 30% equity interest in Monevo Limited (“Monevo”), which we accounted for as a Cost Method Investment. On April 1, 2025, we acquired the remaining 70% of the outstanding equity of Monevo and gained control of Monevo by exercising a call option we obtained when we made our initial investment. The strike price paid at closing to exercise the call option was $56.0 million, which resulted in a non-taxable gain of $12.3 million recorded within other income and (expense), net in the Consolidated Statement of Operations for the three months ended June 30, 2025. There was no contingent consideration related to this transaction.
We accounted for the transaction as a step acquisition in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. We finalized our assessment of the purchase consideration transferred, including customary purchase price adjustments, in the first quarter of 2026. The final purchase consideration of $116.7 million was principally comprised of the cash paid plus the fair value of our initial 30% investment, including the call option and other related assets. We used a combination of the discounted cash flow method and the guideline public company method to determine the overall fair value of Monevo.
Purchase Price Allocation
We finalized our allocation of the purchase price during the three months ended March 31, 2026, and recognized $68.0 million of goodwill, $64.0 million of amortizable intangible assets consisting primarily of developed technology, and a deferred tax liability of $15.6 million. The remaining purchase price was allocated to other net assets of Monevo. We estimate the weighted-average useful lives of the amortizable intangible assets to be approximately 11 years.

Senior Secured Credit Facility
On June 15, 2010, we entered into a Senior Secured Credit Facility with various lenders. This facility has been amended several times and currently consists of the Senior Secured Term Loan B-8, Senior Secured Term Loan B-9, Senior Secured Term Loan B-5, Senior Secured Term Loan A-4 (collectively, the “Senior Secured Term Loans”), and the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility.
On February 11, 2026, we executed Amendment No. 25 to the Senior Secured Credit Facility, pursuant to which we increased our borrowing capacity under the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility to $1.0 billion. All other key terms of the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility remained unchanged. We used proceeds from the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility to fund a portion of the cash purchase price of Trans Union de Mexico, as further discussed in Note 2, “Business Acquisitions.”
As of March 31, 2026, we had $520.0 million in outstanding borrowings under the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility and $1.2 million of outstanding letters of credit, and could have borrowed up to the remaining $478.8 million available.

Table of Contents
Other debt in the table above includes a third-party financing arrangement we entered into in the second quarter of 2025 to purchase certain long-lived assets. This debt will be repaid over 5 years.
We also have the ability to request incremental loans on the same terms under the Senior Secured Credit Facility up to the sum of the greater of $1,000.0 million and 100% of Consolidated EBITDA, minus the amount of secured indebtedness and the amount incurred prior to the incremental loan, and may incur additional incremental loans so long as the senior secured net leverage ratio does not exceed 4.25-to-1, subject to certain additional conditions and commitments by existing or new lenders to fund any additional borrowings.
With certain exceptions, the Senior Secured Credit Facility obligations are secured by a first-priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of Trans Union LLC, including its investment in subsidiaries. The Senior Secured Credit Facility contains various restrictions and nonfinancial covenants, along with a senior secured net leverage ratio test. The nonfinancial covenants include restrictions on dividends, investments, dispositions, future borrowings and other specified payments, as well as additional reporting and disclosure requirements. The senior secured net leverage test must be met as a condition to incur additional indebtedness, make certain investments, and may be required to make certain restricted payments. The senior secured net leverage ratio must not exceed 5.5-to-1 at any such measurement date. Under the terms of the Senior Secured Credit Facility, TransUnion may make dividend payments up to the greater of $100 million or 10.0% of Consolidated EBITDA per year, or an unlimited amount provided that no default or event of default exists and so long as the total net leverage ratio does not exceed 4.75-to-1. As of March 31, 2026, we were in compliance with all debt covenants.
Interest Rate Hedging
In 2025, we entered into interest rate swap agreements with various counterparties that effectively fix our variable interest rate exposure on a portion of our Senior Secured Term Loans or similar replacement debt. The swaps commenced on June 30, 2025 and expire on December 31, 2027, with a current aggregate notional amount of $1,232.1 million that amortizes each quarter. The swaps require us to pay fixed rates varying between 3.2893% and 3.6920% in exchange for receiving a variable rate that matches the variable rate on our loans. We have designated these swap agreements as cash flow hedges.
In 2024, we entered into interest rate swap agreements with various counterparties that effectively fix our variable interest rate exposure on a portion of our Senior Secured Term Loans or similar replacement debt. The swaps commenced on December 31, 2024, and expire on December 31, 2027, with a current aggregate notional amount of $1,078.5 million that amortizes each quarter. The swaps require us to pay fixed rates varying between 3.0650% and 3.9925% in exchange for receiving a variable rate that matches the variable rate on our loans. We have designated these swap agreements as cash flow hedges.
In 2021, we entered into interest rate swap agreements with various counterparties that effectively fix our variable interest rate exposure on a portion of our Senior Secured Term Loans or similar replacement debt. The swaps commenced on December 31, 2021, and expire on December 31, 2026, with a current aggregate notional amount of $1,532.0 million that amortizes each quarter. The swaps require us to pay fixed rates varying between 1.3800% and 1.3915% in exchange for receiving a variable rate that matches the variable rate on our loans. We have designated these swap agreements as cash flow hedges.
The net change in the fair value of our hedging instruments, included in our assessment of hedge effectiveness, is recorded in other comprehensive income, and reclassified to interest expense when the corresponding hedged interest affects earnings. See further discussion in Note 16, “Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss.”
We expect to realize gains of approximately $28.9 million as a reduction of interest expense from our interest rate hedges over the next twelve months.
Fair Value of Debt
The fair value of our Senior Secured Term Loans, excluding original issue discounts and deferred fees, and our Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility is $5,588.9 million and $5,128.6 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The fair values of our Senior Secured Term Loans and our Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility are determined using Level 2 inputs, based on quoted market prices for the publicly traded instruments and observable market inputs for similar debt instruments, respectively.
11. Revenue
Accounts receivable are shown separately on our balance sheet. Contract assets and liabilities result due to the timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections. Contract assets include our right to payment for goods and services already transferred to a customer when the right to payment is conditional on something other than the passage of time, for example, contracts pursuant to which we recognize revenue over time but do not have a contractual right to payment until we complete the contract. Contract assets are included in our other current assets and are not material as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
19

Table of Contents
As most of our contracts with customers have a duration of one year or less, our contract liabilities consist of deferred revenue that is primarily short-term in nature. Contract liabilities include current and long-term deferred revenue that is included in other current liabilities and other liabilities, respectively. We expect to recognize the December 31, 2025 current deferred revenue balance as revenue during 2026. The majority of our long-term deferred revenue, which is not material, is expected to be recognized in less than two years.
We have certain contracts that have a duration of more than one year. For these contracts, the transaction price allocable to the future performance obligations is primarily fixed but contains a variable component. As of March 31, 2026, the aggregate amount of transaction price attributable to future performance obligations for long-term non-cancelable contracts, excluding the variable component, is approximately $790 million. We expect to recognize approximately 50% of this amount in the twelve months ending March 31, 2027, 30% in the twelve months ending March 31, 2028 and 20% thereafter.
For additional disclosures about the disaggregation of our revenue see Note 14, “Reportable Segments.”
12. Income Taxes
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, we reported an effective tax rate of 6.5%, which was lower than the 21.0% U.S. federal corporate statutory rate, due primarily to the non-taxable gain on our acquisition of a majority equity interest in Trans Union de Mexico and a benefit from the elimination of a deferred tax liability on our Cost Method Investment upon obtaining control as further discussed in Note 2, “Business Acquisitions," and benefits on the remeasurement of deferred taxes due to changes in state apportionment rates as a result of legal entity mergers.
For the three months ended March 31, 2025, we reported an effective tax rate of 21.2%, which was higher than the 21.0% U.S. federal corporate statutory rate, due primarily to the impact of nondeductible expenses primarily in connection with executive compensation limitations, the foreign rate differential, and state taxes, partially offset by the impact of the benefit to legal and regulatory expenses from the reduction of an accrued liability to zero for the dismissal of a lawsuit previously treated as nondeductible.
The gross amount of unrecognized tax benefits, which excludes indirect tax effects, was $45.3 million as of March 31, 2026, and $44.3 million as of December 31, 2025. The amounts that would affect the effective tax rate if recognized were $34.4 million as of March 31, 2026 and $33.8 million as of December 31, 2025. We classify interest and penalties as income tax expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and their associated liabilities as other liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits were $22.8 million as of March 31, 2026 and $21.6 million as of December 31, 2025. We are regularly audited by federal, state and foreign taxing authorities. Given the uncertainties inherent in the audit process, it is reasonably possible that certain audits could result in a significant increase or decrease in the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits. An estimate of the range of the increase or decrease in unrecognized tax benefits due to audit results cannot be made at this time. Tax years 2007 and forward remain open for examination in some foreign jurisdictions, 2012 and forward for U.S. federal income tax purposes and 2015 and forward in some state jurisdictions.

Level 2 instruments include interest rate swaps, a foreign currency cash flow hedge and available-for-sale marketable securities consisting of foreign exchange-traded corporate bonds.
We determine the fair value of the interest rate swaps each reporting period using the market standard methodology of discounting the future expected net cash receipts or payments that would occur if variable interest rates rise above or fall below the fixed rates of the swaps, with changes in fair value recognized in other comprehensive income. The variable interest rates used in the calculations of projected receipts on the swaps are based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observable market interest rate curves and volatilities. Each individual swap contract is valued independently and recorded on a gross basis in other assets and other current liabilities.
In November 2025, we entered into a foreign currency forward contract to economically hedge our exposure of a portion of the purchase price of our acquisition of a majority ownership interest in Trans Union de Mexico. The notional amount of the foreign exchange forward contract was MXN 2.9 billion. We determined the fair value of this contract using observable market inputs and standard valuation technique using the contracted forward rate and the current market forward rate for a contract with the same remaining term, with changes in fair value recognized in other income and (expense), net in the Consolidated Statement of Operations each period. This was settled during the three months ended March 31, 2026 upon completion of the acquisition of a majority ownership interest in Trans Union de Mexico.
We determine the fair value of the marketable securities, which are available-for-sale foreign exchange-traded corporate bonds, at their current quoted prices and they mature between 2027 and 2033. Unrealized gains and losses on the foreign exchange-traded corporate bonds, which are not material, are included in other comprehensive income.

Table of Contents
Level 3 instruments consist of convertible notes receivable we have obtained from the variable interest entity we discuss in Note 1, “Significant Accounting Policies,” under the sub-heading “Variable Interest Entities.”
Each convertible note receivable is measured at fair value each period using an option pricing model with inputs based on the contractual terms of the convertible note. The significant unobservable inputs into the model include our estimates of the timing and probabilities of repayment or various conversion scenarios that result in a payoff in the form of preferred equity of the note issuer, and the value of the underlying preferred equity, which in part is based on forecasted revenue of the note issuer. We have elected to initially and subsequently measure these hybrid financial instruments at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in interest income for the interest accretion component, and other income and (expense), net in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for other changes to fair value.
In the three months ended March 31, 2026, we converted all of the notes that were outstanding as of December 31, 2025 into preferred equity in the issuer of the notes as further discussed in Note 7, “Investment in Affiliated Companies.” During the three months ended March 31, 2026, we obtained an additional convertible note that has a face amount of $1.0 million, with simple interest at 12% per annum, and matures 16 months after the purchase date. The note may be converted into various equity shares based on certain events, or may be repaid in cash. The note was initially recorded at a fair value of $1.0 million, which was equivalent to the cash transferred to obtain the convertible note.

14. Reportable Segments
We have two operating segments, U.S. Markets and International, and the Corporate unit, which provides support services to each of the segments. The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is the chief executive officer. The Company’s operating segments, which are consistent with its reportable segments, reflect the structure of the Company’s internal organization, the method by which the Company’s resources are allocated and the manner by which the CODM assesses the Company’s performance. Our CODM uses the profit measure of Adjusted EBITDA for our segments to allocate resources and assess performance of our businesses. We use Adjusted EBITDA as our profit measure because it eliminates the impact of certain items that we do not consider indicative of operating performance, which is useful to compare operating results between periods. The CODM uses Adjusted EBITDA for each segment predominantly in the annual budget and forecasting process. The CODM considers budget-to-actual variances on a quarterly basis when making decisions about the allocation of operating and capital resources to each segment.
Our Board and executive management team also use Adjusted EBITDA as a compensation measure for both segment and corporate management under our incentive compensation plans. Adjusted EBITDA is also a measure frequently used by securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties in their evaluation of the operating performance of companies similar to ours.
The segment financial information presented below aligns with how we report information to our CODM to assess operating performance and how we manage the business. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as described in Note 1, “Significant Accounting Policies” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
The following is a more detailed description of our reportable segments and the Corporate unit:

15. Contingencies
Legal and Regulatory Matters
We are routinely named as defendants in, or parties to, various legal actions and proceedings relating to our current or past business operations. These actions generally assert claims for violations of federal or state credit reporting, consumer protection or privacy laws, or common law claims related to the unfair treatment of consumers, and may include claims for substantial or indeterminate compensatory or punitive damages, or injunctive relief, and may seek business practice changes. We believe that most of these claims are either without merit or we have valid defenses to the claims, and we vigorously defend these matters or seek non-monetary or small monetary settlements, if possible. However, due to the uncertainties inherent in litigation, we cannot predict the outcome of each claim in each instance.
In the ordinary course of business, we also are subject to governmental and regulatory examinations, information-gathering requests, investigations and proceedings (both formal and informal), certain of which may result in adverse judgments, settlements, fines, penalties, injunctions or other relief. In connection with formal and informal investigations and inquiries by regulators, we sometimes receive civil investigative demands, requests, subpoenas and orders seeking documents, testimony, and other information in connection with various aspects of our activities.
In view of the inherent unpredictability of legal and regulatory matters, particularly where the damages sought are substantial or indeterminate or when the proceedings or investigations are in the early stages, we cannot determine with any degree of certainty the timing or ultimate resolution of legal and regulatory matters or the eventual loss, fines or penalties, if any, that may result from such matters. We establish reserves for legal and regulatory matters when those matters present loss contingencies that are both probable and can be reasonably estimated. However, for certain of the matters, we are not able to reasonably estimate our exposure because damages or penalties have not been specified and (i) the proceedings are in early stages, (ii) there is uncertainty as to the likelihood of a class being certified or the ultimate size of the class, (iii) there is uncertainty as to the outcome of similar matters pending against our competitors, (iv) there are significant factual issues to be resolved, and/or (v) there are legal issues of a first impression being presented. The actual costs of resolving legal and regulatory matters, however, may be substantially higher than the amounts reserved for those matters, and an adverse outcome in certain of these matters could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial statements in particular quarterly or annual periods. We accrue amounts for certain legal and regulatory matters for which losses were considered to be probable of occurring based on our best estimate of the most likely outcome. It is reasonably possible actual losses could be significantly different from our current estimates. In addition, there are some matters for which it is reasonably possible that a loss will occur, however, we cannot estimate a range of the potential losses for these matters.
To reduce our exposure to an unexpected significant monetary award resulting from an adverse judicial decision, we maintain insurance that we believe is appropriate and adequate based on our historical experience. We regularly advise our insurance carriers of the claims, threatened or pending, against us in legal and regulatory matters and generally receive a reservation of rights letter from the carriers when such claims exceed applicable deductibles. We are not aware of any significant monetary claim that has been asserted against us, except for the pending matter with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (the “CFPB”) referenced below, that would not have some level of coverage by insurance after the relevant deductible, if any, is met.
As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we have accrued $71.8 million and $62.2 million, respectively, for legal and regulatory matters. These amounts were recorded in other accrued liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and the associated expenses are recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Legal fees incurred in connection with ongoing litigation are considered period costs and are expensed as incurred.
CFPB Matters
In June 2021, we received a Notice and Opportunity to Respond and Advise (“NORA”) letter from the CFPB alleging that we failed to comply with and timely implement a consent order issued by the CFPB in January 2017 (the “2017 Consent Order”), and further alleging additional violations related to Consumer Interactive’s marketing practices. On April 12, 2022, the agency filed a lawsuit against us, Trans Union LLC, TransUnion Interactive, Inc. (collectively, the “TU Entities”) and the former President of Consumer Interactive, John Danaher, in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois. On February 28, 2025, the CFPB, the TU Entities and Mr. Danaher filed with the Court a joint stipulation to voluntarily dismiss the lawsuit with prejudice, and the Court dismissed the lawsuit on March 21, 2025. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we adjusted the amount previously accrued for this matter of $56.0 million to zero, as the dismissal has rendered a loss no longer probable.
In March 2024, we received a NORA letter from the CFPB, informing us that the CFPB’s Enforcement Division was considering whether to recommend that the CFPB take legal action against us related to our dispute handling practices and procedures. The NORA letter alleged that Trans Union LLC violated the Fair Credit Reporting Act’s requirements to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation of disputed information and follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of
27

Table of Contents
the information in consumer reports, and the Consumer Financial Protection Act’s prohibition of unfair, deceptive, and abusive acts or practices. On July 12, 2024, the CFPB Enforcement Division advised us that it had obtained authority to pursue an enforcement action against us seeking specific injunctive relief provisions and civil money penalties. We were previously engaged in active discussions with the CFPB regarding this matter, including that our ability to make proposed changes to certain dispute handling processes is dependent on the participation of other consumer reporting agencies, data furnishers and industry participants. Given the recent changes in CFPB leadership, our engagement with the agency on this matter has paused. We cannot provide an estimate of when, or if, such engagement will resume. We further cannot provide assurance that the CFPB will not ultimately commence a lawsuit against us in this matter, nor are we able to predict the likely outcome of this matter.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis of TransUnion’s financial condition and results of operations is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, TransUnion’s audited consolidated financial statements, the accompanying notes, “Risk Factors,” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, as well as the unaudited consolidated financial statements and the related notes presented in Part I, Item 1, of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
In addition to historical data, this discussion contains forward-looking statements about our business, operations and financial performance based on current expectations that involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Our actual results may differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including but not limited to those discussed in “Cautionary Notice Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors.”
References in this discussion and analysis to the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to TransUnion and its direct and indirect subsidiaries, including TransUnion Intermediate Holdings, Inc. and Trans Union LLC.
Overview
TransUnion is a leading global information and insights company that makes trust possible between businesses and consumers, helping people around the world access opportunities that can lead to a higher quality of life. That trust is built on TransUnion’s ability to deliver safe, innovative solutions with credibility and consistency. We call this Information for Good.
We have built robust data and analytics assets for a large portion of the adult population in the markets we serve. We use our OneTru solution enablement platform to centralize data management, identity resolution, artificial intelligence (“AI”) powered analytics, enabling more persistent identity resolution with sharper, more contextualized insights. We use these insights, combined with our industry expertise, to develop relevant solutions to solve customers’ needs, including credit risk, marketing and fraud mitigation. Because of our work, customers can better understand consumers in order to make more informed decisions, earn consumer trust through personalized experiences, and extend the appropriate opportunities, tools and offers. In turn, we believe consumers can be confident that their data identities will result in better offers and opportunities.
Our solutions enable businesses to manage and measure credit risk, market to new and existing customers, verify consumer identities, and mitigate fraud. We have deep domain expertise across a number of attractive industries, which we also refer to as verticals, including Financial Services and Emerging Verticals, which includes Insurance, Technology, Retail and E-Commerce, Telecommunications, Media, Tenant & Employment Screening, Collections, and Public Sector. In addition, consumers use our solutions to view their credit profiles, access analytical tools that help them understand and manage their personal financial information, and take precautions against identity theft. We have a global presence in over 30 countries and territories across North America, Latin America, Europe, Africa, India and Asia Pacific.
Our addressable market includes the global data and analytics market, which continues to grow as companies increasingly recognize the benefits of data and analytics-based decision making, and as consumers recognize the important role that their data identities play in their ability to procure goods and services and prevent fraud. There are several underlying trends supporting this market growth, including the proliferation of data, advances in technology such as AI that enable data to be processed more quickly and efficiently to provide business insights, and growing demand for these business insights across industries and geographies. We have grown our business by expanding the breadth and depth of our data, strengthening our analytics capabilities, expanding into complementary vertical markets, deepening our solution suites in areas such as fraud mitigation and marketing, building out our geographic portfolio, investing in technology infrastructure, and enhancing our global operating model. As a result, we believe we are well positioned to expand our share within the markets we currently serve.
Segments
We manage our business and report our financial results in two reportable segments: U.S. Markets and International, which reflects the structure of the Company’s internal organization, the method by which the Company’s resources are allocated and the manner by which the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) assesses the Company’s performance. See Part I, Item 1 “Financial Information - Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements,” Note 14, “Reportable Segments” for additional information about our operating segments.
U.S. Markets
The U.S. Markets segment provides data, analytics and actionable insights to businesses and consumers. Businesses use our services to acquire customers, assess consumers’ ability to pay for services, identify cross-selling opportunities, measure and
29

Table of Contents
manage debt portfolio risk, collect debt, verify consumer identities, mitigate fraud risk and respond to data breach events. Consumers use our services to manage their personal finances and take precautions against identity theft.
International
The International segment provides services similar to our U.S. Markets segment to businesses in select regions outside the United States. Depending on the maturity of the credit economy in each country, services may include credit reports, analytics and technology solutions services and other value-added risk management services. In addition, we have insurance, business and automotive databases in select geographies. These services are offered to customers in a number of industries including financial services, automotive, collections, public sector, gaming and communications, and are delivered through both direct and indirect channels. The International segment also provides consumer services similar to those offered by our Consumer Interactive vertical in our U.S. Markets segment that help consumers proactively manage their personal finances and take precautions against identity theft.
Corporate
Corporate provides support services for each of the segments, holds investments, and conducts enterprise functions. Certain costs incurred in Corporate that are not directly attributable to either of the segments remain in Corporate. These costs are typically enterprise-level costs and are primarily administrative in nature.
Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations
The following are certain key factors that affect, or have recently affected, our results of operations:
Macroeconomic and Industry Trends
Our revenues and results of operations have been and can be significantly influenced by general macroeconomic conditions, including but not limited to, interest rates, inflation, tariffs, housing demand, the availability of credit and capital, employment levels, consumer confidence and the risk of recession.
In February 2026, the United States and Israel launched coordinated military strikes against Iran, which retaliated with missile attacks across the region. Although we do not have material operations in the Middle East, the ongoing conflict has, and is likely to continue to have, an impact on global energy prices, inflation, consumer spending, market volatility, and overall macroeconomic conditions, and any further escalation of the conflict is likely to exacerbate these effects. These factors form part of the broader macroeconomic environment in which inflation has remained above the U.S. Federal Reserve’s (the “Fed”) long-term target, prompting the Fed to maintain the federal funds rate during the first three months of 2026 after cutting rates by 75 basis points in the last four months of 2025. The federal funds rate, while lower than recent highs and rates during the first half of 2025, remained elevated relative to historical norms and is expected to remain elevated given macroeconomic concerns arising from conflict in the Middle East. Higher interest rates have slowed demand for consumer and auto loans, and have had a more pronounced impact on the housing sector, where higher borrowing rates impact both home affordability, driving down purchase activity, and demand for mortgage loan refinancing. However, mortgage rates are not directly tied to the federal funds rate but instead are tied to the 10-year Treasury rate, which showed signs of improvement in the first two months of the quarter, but subsequently rose at the end of the quarter due to general macroeconomic concerns stemming from the ongoing conflict in the Middle East. As a result, 30-year mortgage rates remained elevated at quarter-end, which continues to suppress activity in the housing sector.
Macro-economic conditions in the U.K. and Canada were relatively stable in the first two months of 2026 and showed some recovering following a weak final quarter of 2025. However, the conflict in the Middle East and the resulting increase in energy prices has renewed inflation pressures and heightened consumer uncertainty, which likely impacted full first quarter growth. In India, the economy is highly sensitive to energy prices, and economic growth likely slowed in the final month of the quarter after relatively strong performance in the first two months, although regulatory actions have continued to slow credit expansion. Globally, many central banks paused further policy interest rate cuts in the quarter as a result of the increase in energy prices and the likely impact on inflation levels, which may impact consumer credit demand.
The U.S. has continued to take actions related to import tariffs, the impacts of which remain uncertain and continue to contribute to market volatility. While trade negotiations and legal challenges are ongoing, these actions have led to increased market volatility and uncertainty making the impact difficult to forecast. If policies that significantly increase tariff rates are maintained, there is potential for the U.S. and global economic growth to slow, with increased probability for recession and increased inflation across many of the markets where we operate. Despite the early implementation of higher tariffs having a lower-than-expected impact on U.S. inflation rates in 2025 and so far in 2026, market uncertainty is putting pressure on the global macroeconomic environment. The uncertainty of tariff policy, price increases and stock market volatility has dampened, and may continue to suppress, consumer sentiment.
The factors described above impact the comparability of our results of operations, including our revenue and expense, between the periods presented below. Ongoing uncertainty and the unpredictable nature of the macroeconomic environment could have
30

Table of Contents
a material adverse impact on various aspects of our business in the future, including our stock price, results of operations, financial condition and the carrying value of our long-lived assets, such as goodwill and intangible assets.
Effects of Inflation
We believe that elevated levels of inflation have had, and periods of renewed inflationary pressure could continue to have, a negative impact on our business and results of operations, including decreased demand for our services. Following significant reductions in inflation from peak levels reached in 2022 and 2023, the Fed and several international central banks began lowering interest rates in 2024 and 2025, and have indicated that future policy actions will remain data-dependent. Interest rates remain elevated relative to historic levels, which may result in depressed consumer spending on non-essential goods and services, and consequently lower demand for credit, which could have a material adverse impact on various aspects of our business in the future.
Developments that Impact Comparability Between Periods
The following developments impact the comparability of our balance sheets, results of operations and cash flows between periods:
Transformation Plan
As of the end of 2025, we completed the transformation plan to optimize our operating model and continue to advance our technology. The operating model optimization program transitioned certain job responsibilities to our GCCs and reduced our facility footprint. The incremental investment to advance our technology, which was the final phase of our accelerated technology investment, fundamentally transformed our technology infrastructure through the implementation of a global cloud-based approach to streamline product development, increase efficiency of ongoing operations and maintenance, enable a continuous improvement approach and provide a single global platform for fulfillment of our product lines. We incurred a total of $373.4 million in pre-tax expenses related to the two initiatives from the fourth quarter of 2023 through the end of 2025, consistent with our overall expectations.
See Part I, Item 1, “Financial Information – Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements,” Note 8, “Other Current Liabilities” for additional information about our restructuring expenses and “Results of Operations – Non-GAAP Measures” for additional details of the composition of these expenses.

Trans Union de Mexico Acquisition
On March 2, 2026, we acquired approximately a 68% equity interest in Trans Union de Mexico for total cash consideration of $659.7 million. Prior to the transaction, we owned approximately a 26% equity interest that was accounted for under the equity method. Our total equity interest is now approximately 94%, representing a controlling financial interest and resulting in the consolidation of Trans Union de Mexico. We accounted for the transaction as a step acquisition in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. Accordingly, we remeasured our initial 26% investment at a fair value of $247.4 million resulting in a non-taxable gain of $225.5 million recorded within gain on acquisition of affiliate in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
The acquisition was funded primarily with proceeds from our Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility and cash on hand. See Note 10, “Debt,” for additional information about our Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility. There was no contingent consideration related to this transaction. Trans Union de Mexico’s results of operations subsequent to the acquisition date are reflected in the Latin America reporting unit in our International segment for the three months ended March 31, 2026, which affects the comparability of results to prior year periods. See Part I, Item 1, Note 2 “Business Acquisitions” for further information about this transaction.
Monevo Acquisition
On April 1, 2025, we gained control of Monevo Limited (“Monevo”) by acquiring the remaining 70% of its outstanding equity, of which we previously owned 30%. We accounted for the transaction as a step acquisition in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. Monevo’s results of operations subsequent to the acquisition date, which are not material, are reflected in both the U.S. Markets and International segments for the three months ended March 31, 2026, which affects the comparability of results to prior year periods. See Part I, Item 1, Note 2 “Business Acquisitions” for further information about this transaction.
Legal Matters
On February 28, 2025, the CFPB, Trans Union LLC, TransUnion Interactive, Inc. and Mr. Danaher, the former President of Consumer Interactive, filed a joint stipulation with the Court to voluntarily dismiss the lawsuit related to the 2017 Consent Order with prejudice, and the Court dismissed the lawsuit on March 21, 2025. During the first quarter of 2025, we adjusted the $56.0 million previously accrued for this matter to zero, as the loss was no longer probable. See Part I, Item 1, “Financial Information – Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements,” Note 15, “Contingencies” for additional information about this matter.
Share Repurchase Plan
On February 11, 2025, our Board authorized the 2025 Repurchase Plan. On October 22, 2025, the Board approved an increase to the share repurchase plan authorization up to $1.0 billion (including amounts repurchased as of such date under the 2025 Repurchase Plan). Repurchases may be made from time to time at management’s discretion at prices management considers to be attractive through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise, including pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 plan, hybrid open market repurchases or an accelerated share repurchase transaction, subject to availability. Open market purchases are conducted in accordance with the limitations set forth in Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act and other applicable legal requirements. We have no obligation to repurchase additional shares, and the timing, actual number and value of the shares that are repurchased, if any, are at the discretion of management. The 2025 Repurchase Plan does not have an expiration date.
Repurchased shares are retired, resulting in a reduction to common stock at par with the remainder to additional paid-in capital. Once repurchased, the shares are returned to the status of authorized but unissued shares of the Company and reduce the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for purposes of calculating basic and diluted earnings per share. During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company repurchased approximately 171,000 and 63,000 shares of common stock, respectively, for a total of $12.1 million and $5.4 million, respectively, including commissions and excise taxes, under the 2025 Repurchase Plan. The average price paid per share for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 was $70.92 and $84.86, respectively. As of March 31, 2026, $688.1 million remains available for repurchases under the 2025 Repurchase Plan.
Debt
On February 11, 2026, we executed Amendment No. 25 to the Senior Secured Credit Facility, pursuant to which we increased our borrowing capacity under the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility to $1.0 billion. All other key terms of the Senior

Table of Contents
Secured Revolving Credit Facility remained unchanged. We used proceeds from the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility to fund a portion of the cash purchase price of Trans Union de Mexico, as further discussed in Note 2, “Business Acquisitions.”
During the second quarter of 2025, we entered into interest rate swap agreements with various counterparties that effectively fix our variable interest rate exposure on a portion of our Senior Secured Term Loans or similar replacement debt. The swaps commenced on June 30, 2025 and expire on December 31, 2027, with a current aggregate notional amount of $1,232.1 million that amortizes each quarter. The swaps require us to pay fixed rates varying between 3.2893% and 3.6920% in exchange for receiving a variable rate that matches the variable rate on our loans. We have designated these swap agreements as cash flow hedges.

Revenue
For the three months ended March 31, 2026 revenue increased $149.9 million, or 13.7%, compared with the same period in 2025, due to growth in both segments and our recent acquisition of a majority ownership interest in Trans Union de Mexico. The impact of foreign currency on organic revenue was an increase of 0.7%.
Operating Expenses
Cost of Services
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, cost of services increased $73.8 million compared with the same period in 2025. The increase was due primarily to:
an increase of approximately $81.0 million in product and fulfillment costs due primarily to an increase in certain product cost pricing in our U.S. Markets segment and an increase in volume in both segments.
partially offset by:
a decrease of approximately $10.0 million in technology and communications costs, due primarily to our accelerated technology investment program which ended in 2025, partially offset by an increase in cloud costs.
Selling, General and Administrative
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, selling, general and administrative expenses increased $72.2 million compared with the same period in 2025. The increase was due primarily to:
A $56.0 million reduction of an accrual for a lawsuit that was dismissed in the first quarter of 2025, as further discussed in Part II, Item 8, “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data – Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements,” Note 15, “Contingencies;” and
34

Table of Contents
an increase of approximately $25.0 million in labor-related costs including incentive compensation, primarily stock-based compensation, and an increase in salaries and commissions.
partially offset by:
a decrease of approximately $9.0 million in costs related to our operating model optimization program due to the completion of the program in 2025.
Depreciation and Amortization
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, depreciation and amortization increased $13.5 million compared with the same period in 2025, due primarily to the increase in capital expenditures related to our accelerated technology investment initiative over the past few years and incremental intangible asset amortization from our recent acquisitions.
Non-Operating Income and Expense
Interest expense
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, interest expense increased $5.9 million, compared with the same period in 2025. The increase was due primarily to the replacement of our hedges in June 2025 and borrowing on our Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility to fund the acquisition of a majority ownership interest in Trans Union de Mexico, partially offset by a decrease in the average periodic variable interest rate on the unhedged portion of our debt.
Interest income
The decrease in interest income for the current period compared to the prior period was due primarily to the settlement of a note receivable in October 2025.
Gain on acquisition of affiliate
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, we recognized a gain on our acquisition of a majority ownership interest in Trans Union de Mexico, as further discussed in Part I, Note 2, “Business Acquisition.”

Currency remeasurement gains (losses), net consist of realized foreign currency gains and losses for transactions in currencies other than the functional currency of the corresponding consolidated entity that were settled during the period. Miscellaneous non-operating income and (expense) includes other miscellaneous non-operating income and expense.
Provision for Income Taxes
Our effective tax rates were 6.5% and 21.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The effective tax rate was lower in 2026 compared to 2025 due primarily to the non-taxable gain on our acquisition of a majority equity interest in Trans Union de Mexico and a benefit from the elimination of a deferred tax liability on our Cost Method Investment upon obtaining control as further discussed in Note 2, “Business Acquisitions," and benefits on the remeasurement of deferred taxes due to changes in state apportionment rates as a result of legal entity mergers, all of which occurred during the first quarter of 2026.

U.S. Markets Segment
Revenue
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, U.S. Markets revenue increased $118.5 million, or 13.8%, compared with the same period in 2025. Revenue increased in all verticals.
Financial Services: For the three months ended March 31, 2026, revenue increased $96.9 million, or 24.0%, compared with the same period in 2025. A majority of the growth in Financial Services comes from our Mortgage line of business, due primarily to increases in price and volume. Our other lines of business also grew, due primarily to volume increases in our Consumer Lending line of business, and price and volume increases in our Auto and Card and Banking lines of business.
Emerging Verticals: For the three months ended March 31, 2026, revenue increased $19.8 million, or 6.3%, compared with the same period in 2025. The increase was due primarily to an increase in Insurance from price and volume increases, and most other verticals from volume increases across online and batch services, new business wins and pricing increases.
Consumer Interactive: For the three months ended March 31, 2026, revenue increased $1.7 million, or 1.3%, compared with the same period in 2025, due primarily to increased breach and indirect channel revenue, partially offset by slowing demand for paid credit products.

Table of Contents
Adjusted EBITDA
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, Adjusted EBITDA increased $36.7 million compared with the same period in 2025, due primarily to the increase in revenue, partially offset by higher variable product and fulfillment costs and other operating costs. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, Adjusted EBITDA margins decreased 0.8% due primarily to FICO mortgage royalties, partially offset by technology and communication and labor-related costs growing at a slower pace than revenue.
International Segment
Revenue
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, International revenue increased $31.8 million, or 13.1%, compared with the same period in 2025 due primarily to the acquisitions of Trans Union de Mexico and Monevo, which contributed 9.6% of the increase. The impact of foreign currencies on organic revenue was an increase of 3.2%.
Canada: For the three months ended March 31, 2026, Canada revenue increased $5.4 million, or 14.4%, compared with the same period in 2025, due primarily to higher local currency revenue from broad-based volume increases and an increase of 5.1% from the impact of foreign currencies.
Latin America: For the three months ended March 31, 2026, Latin America revenue increased $21.1 million, or 64.4%, compared with the same period in 2025. Our acquisition of the majority ownership interest in Trans Union de Mexico contributed 56.0% of the increase. The impact of foreign currencies on organic revenue was an increase of 8.1%.
United Kingdom: For the three months ended March 31, 2026, United Kingdom revenue increased $13.4 million, or 22.7%, compared with the same period in 2025. Our acquisition of Monevo in the prior year contributed 8.1% of the increase. The impact of foreign currencies on organic revenue was an increase of 7.5%.
Africa: For the three months ended March 31, 2026, Africa revenue increased $4.0 million, or 23.4%, compared with the same period in 2025, due primarily to volume growth in emerging verticals, and an increase of 13.8% from the impact of foreign currencies.
India: For the three months ended March 31, 2026, India revenue decreased $7.2 million, or 10.5%, compared with the same period in 2025, due primarily to lower consumer online and batch volumes, partially offset by direct to consumer and credit risk volumes. The impact of foreign currencies was a decrease in revenue of 5.0% in the three-month period.
Asia Pacific: For the three months ended March 31, 2026, Asia Pacific revenue decreased $4.9 million, or 18.2%, compared with the same period in 2025, due primarily to prior year one-time contracts, partially offset by batch activity. The impact of foreign currencies was a decrease in revenue of 0.7%.
Adjusted EBITDA
For the three months ended March 31, 2026, Adjusted EBITDA increased $11.9 million compared with the same period in 2025 due primarily to increased revenue in most regions as discussed above, partially offset by an increase in expenses due to the increase in revenue. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, Adjusted EBITDA margins decreased 0.9%, due primarily to a shift in the mix of revenues.

Non-GAAP Measures—Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 and 2025
In addition to the financial measures in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) discussed above, management, including our CODM, evaluates the financial performance of our businesses based on the non-GAAP measures Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share, Adjusted Provision for Income Taxes, Adjusted Effective Tax Rate and Leverage Ratio.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We present Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share, Adjusted Provision for Income Taxes, Adjusted Effective Tax Rate and Leverage Ratio for all periods presented. These are important financial measures for the Company but are not financial measures as defined by GAAP. These financial measures should be reviewed in conjunction with the relevant GAAP financial measures and are not presented as alternative measures of GAAP. Other companies in our industry may define or calculate these measures differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. Because of these limitations, these non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, including operating income, operating margin, effective tax rate, net income attributable to the Company, diluted earnings per share or cash provided by operating activities. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are presented in the tables below.
We present Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share, Adjusted Provision for Income Taxes and Adjusted Effective Tax Rate as supplemental measures of our operating performance because these measures eliminate the impact of certain items that we do not consider indicative of our cash operations and ongoing operating performance. These are measures frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in their evaluation of the operating performance of companies similar to ours.
Our Board and executive management team use Adjusted EBITDA as an incentive compensation measure for most eligible employees and Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share as an incentive compensation measure for certain of our senior executives.
Under the credit agreement governing our Senior Secured Credit Facility, our ability to engage in activities such as incurring additional indebtedness, making investments and paying dividends is tied to our Leverage Ratio which is partially based on Adjusted EBITDA. Investors also use our Leverage Ratio to assess our ability to service our debt and make other capital allocation decisions.
Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA

Management has excluded the following items from net income attributable to TransUnion in order to calculate Adjusted EBITDA for the periods presented:    

Net interest expense is the sum of interest expense and interest income as reported on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Provision for income taxes, as reported on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Depreciation and amortization, as reported on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Stock-based compensation is used as an incentive to engage and retain our employees. It is predominantly a non-cash expense. We exclude stock-based compensation because it may not correlate to the underlying performance of our business operations during the period since it is measured at the grant date fair value and it is subject to variability as a result of performance conditions and timing of grants. These expenses are reported within cost of services and selling, general and administrative on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Mergers and acquisitions, divestitures and business optimization expenses are non-recurring expenses associated with specific transactions (exploratory or executed) and consist of (i) transaction and integration costs, (ii) fair value and impairment adjustments related to investments and related call and put options, notes receivable, gains or losses on a step acquisition and mark-to-market adjustments on acquisition-related foreign currency forward contracts, (iii) post-acquisition adjustments to contingent consideration or to assets and liabilities that occurred after the acquisition measurement period. We exclude these expenses as we believe they are not directly correlated to the underlying performance of our business operations and vary depending upon the timing of such transactions. These expenses are reported in costs of services, selling, general and administrative and other income and (expenses), net, on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Accelerated technology investment includes Project Rise and the final phase of our technology investment announced in November 2023. Project Rise was announced in February 2020 and was originally expected to be completed in 2022. Following our acquisition of Neustar in December 2021, we recognized the opportunity to take advantage of Neustar’s capabilities to enhance and complement our cloud-based technology already under development as part of
39

Table of Contents
Project Rise. As a result, we extended Project Rise’s timeline to 2024. In November 2023, we announced our plans to further leverage Neustar’s technology to standardize and streamline our product delivery platforms and to build a single global platform for fulfillment of our product lines. This represented the final phase of the technology investment in our global technology infrastructure and core customer applications. The accelerated technology investment fundamentally transformed our technology infrastructure by implementing a global cloud-based approach to streamline product development, increase the efficiency of ongoing operations and maintenance and enable a continuous improvement approach to avoid the need for another major technology overhaul in the foreseeable future. The unique effort to build a secure, reliable and performant hybrid cloud infrastructure required us to dedicate separate resources in order to develop the new cloud-based infrastructure in parallel with our current on-premise environment by maintaining our existing technology team to ensure no disruptions to our customers. The costs associated with the accelerated technology investment are incremental and redundant costs that will not recur now that the program has been completed and are not representative of our underlying operating performance. Therefore, we believe that excluding these costs through the end of the program in 2025 from our non-GAAP measures provides a better reflection of our ongoing cost structure. These costs are primarily reported in cost of services and therefore do not include amounts that are capitalized as internally developed software.
Operating model optimization program represents employee separation costs, facility lease exit costs and other business process optimization expenses incurred in connection with our transformation plan discussed further in “Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations.” We excluded these expenses through the end of the program in 2025 as we believe they are not directly correlated to the underlying performance of our business. Further, these costs will vary and may not be comparable during the transformation initiative as we progress toward an optimized operating model. These costs are reported primarily in restructuring and selling, general and administrative on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Net other adjustments principally relate to: (i) deferred loan fee expense from debt prepayments and refinancing, (ii) other debt financing expenses consisting primarily of revolving credit facility deferred financing fee amortization and commitment fees and expenses associated with ratings agencies and interest rate hedging, (iii) currency remeasurement on foreign operations, (iv) legal and regulatory expenses, net, and (v) other non-operating (income) expense. We exclude these expenses as we believe they are not directly correlated to the underlying performance of our business and create variability between periods based on the nature and timing of the expense or income. These costs are reported in selling, general and administrative and in non-operating income and expense, net as applicable based on their nature on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Table of Contents

Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA Margin

Management defines Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenue as reported.

Adjusted Net Income

Management has excluded the following items from net income attributable to TransUnion in order to calculate Adjusted Net Income for the periods presented:
Amortization of certain intangible assets presents non-cash amortization expenses related to assets that arose from our 2012 change in control transaction and business combinations occurring after our 2012 change in control. We exclude these expenses as we believe they are not directly correlated to the underlying performance of our business operations and vary dependent upon the timing of the transactions that give rise to these assets. Amortization of intangible assets is included in depreciation and amortization on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Stock-based compensation (see Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA above)
Mergers and acquisitions, divestiture and business optimization (see Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA above)
Accelerated technology investment (see Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA above)
Operating model optimization program (see Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA above)
Net other is consistent with the definition in Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA above except that other debt financing expenses and certain other miscellaneous income and expense that are included in the adjustment to calculate Adjusted EBITDA are excluded in the adjustment made to calculate Adjusted Net Income.
Total adjustments for income taxes relates to the cumulative adjustments discussed below for Adjusted Provision for Income Taxes. This adjustment is made for the reasons indicated in Adjusted Provision for Income Taxes below. Adjustments related to the provision for income taxes are included in the line item by this name on our Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share

Management defines Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share as Adjusted Net Income divided by the weighted-average diluted shares outstanding.

Adjusted Provision for Income Taxes

Management has excluded the following items from our provision for income taxes for the periods presented:

Tax effect of above adjustments represents the income tax effect of the adjustments related to Adjusted Net Income described above. The tax rate applied to each adjustment is based on the nature of each line item. We include the tax effect of the adjustments made to Adjusted Net Income to provide a comprehensive view of our adjusted net income.
Excess tax (benefit) expense for stock-based compensation is the permanent difference between expenses recognized for book purposes and expenses recognized for tax purposes, in each case related to stock-based compensation expense. We exclude this amount from the Adjusted Provision for Income Taxes in order to be consistent with the exclusion of stock-based compensation from the calculation of Adjusted Net Income.
Other principally relates to (i) deferred tax adjustments, including rate changes, (ii) infrequent or unusual valuation allowance adjustments, (iii) return to provision, tax authority audit adjustments, and reserves related to prior periods,
41

Table of Contents
and (iv) other non-recurring items. We exclude these items because they create variability that impacts comparability between periods.

Adjusted Effective Tax Rate
Management defines Adjusted Effective Tax Rate as Adjusted Provision for Income Taxes divided by Adjusted income before income taxes. We calculate adjusted income before income taxes by excluding the pre-tax adjustments in the calculation of Adjusted Net Income discussed above and noncontrolling interest related to these pre-tax adjustments from income before income taxes.

Leverage Ratio
Management defines Leverage Ratio as net debt divided by Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA for the most recent twelve-month period including twelve months of Adjusted EBITDA from significant acquisitions. Net debt is defined as total debt less cash and cash equivalents as reported on the balance sheet as of the end of the period.
For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, these non-GAAP measures were as follows:

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA increased $40.7 million compared with the same period in 2025, due primarily to an increase in revenue and the realization of cost savings from the transformation plan, partially offset by higher product costs compared to prior year. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased 1.0%, compared with the same period in 2025, due primarily to FICO mortgage royalties in the U.S. Markets segment.

recent acquisitions and related restructuring activities and higher deductions for foreign-derived intangible income due to provisions of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act that went into effect January 1, 2026.

Application of Critical Accounting Estimates
We prepare our consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP. The notes accompanying our unaudited consolidated financial statements include disclosures about our significant accounting policies. These accounting policies require us to make certain judgments and estimates in reporting our operating results and our assets and liabilities. See Part II, Item 7, “Application of Critical Accounting Estimates” and Part II, Item 8, Note 1, “Significant Accounting Policies” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on February 27, 2026, for additional information about our critical accounting estimates.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
Our principal sources of liquidity are cash flows provided by operating activities, cash and cash equivalents on hand, and our Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility. Our principal uses of liquidity are working capital, capital expenditures, debt service and other capital allocation initiatives, business acquisitions, dividends, and other general corporate purposes. We believe our cash on hand, cash generated from operations and funds available under the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility will be sufficient to fund our planned capital expenditures, debt service and other capital structure obligations, business acquisitions, dividends, and operating needs for at least the next twelve months. Our ability to maintain adequate liquidity for our operations in the future is dependent upon a number of factors, including our revenue, macroeconomic conditions, our ability to contain costs, including capital expenditures, and to collect accounts receivable, and various other factors, many of which are beyond our control. We will continue to monitor our liquidity position and may elect to raise funds through debt or equity financing in the future to fund significant investments or acquisitions that are consistent with our growth strategy.
Cash and cash equivalents totaled $732.5 million and $853.6 million at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, of which $594.9 million and $432.2 million was held outside the United States in each respective period. As of March 31, 2026, we had $520.0 million in outstanding borrowings under the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility and $1.2 million of outstanding letters of credit and could have borrowed up to the remaining $478.8 million available.

Table of Contents
On February 11, 2026, we executed Amendment No. 25 to the Senior Secured Credit Facility, pursuant to which we increased our borrowing capacity under the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility to $1.0 billion. All other key terms of the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility remained unchanged. We used proceeds from the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility to fund a portion of the cash purchase price of Trans Union de Mexico.
We also have the ability to request incremental loans on the same terms under the existing Senior Secured Credit Facility up to the greater of an additional $1,000.0 million and 100% of Consolidated EBITDA, as defined in the credit agreement. In addition, as long as the senior secured net leverage ratio does not exceed 4.25-to-1, we may incur additional incremental loans, subject to certain additional conditions and commitments by existing or new lenders to fund any additional borrowings.
Each year, we may be required to make additional principal payments on the Senior Secured Term Loan B based on excess cash flows of the prior year, as defined in the agreement. There were no excess cash flows for 2025 and therefore no additional payment is required in 2026. See Part I, Item 1, “Financial Information - Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements,” Note 10, “Debt” for additional information about our debt.
With certain exceptions, the Senior Secured Credit Facility obligations are secured by a first-priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of Trans Union LLC, including its investments in subsidiaries. The Senior Secured Credit Facility contains various restrictions and nonfinancial covenants, along with a senior secured net leverage ratio test. The nonfinancial covenants include restrictions on dividends, investments, dispositions, future borrowings and other specified payments, as well as additional reporting and disclosure requirements. The senior secured net leverage test must be met as a condition to incur additional indebtedness, make certain investments, and may be required to make certain restricted payments. The senior secured net leverage ratio must not exceed 5.5-to-1 at any such measurement date.
In the first quarter of 2026, we paid dividends of $0.125 per share totaling $25.0 million. Dividends declared accrue to outstanding restricted stock units and are paid to employees as dividend equivalents when the restricted stock units vest. While we currently expect to continue to pay quarterly dividends, any determination to pay dividends in the future will be at the discretion of our Board and will depend on a number of factors, including our liquidity, results of operations, financial condition, contractual restrictions, restrictions imposed by applicable law and other factors that our Board deems appropriate. We currently have capacity and intend to continue to pay a quarterly dividend, subject to approval by our Board.
On February 11, 2025, our Board authorized the 2025 Repurchase Plan. Repurchases may be made from time to time at management’s discretion, at prices management considers to be attractive, through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, including pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 plan, hybrid open market repurchases or an accelerated share repurchase transaction, subject to availability. Open market purchases are conducted in accordance with the limitations set forth in Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act and other applicable legal requirements. We have no obligation to repurchase additional shares, and the timing, actual number and value of the shares that are repurchased, if any, are at the discretion of management. Repurchases may be suspended, terminated or modified at any time for any reason. The 2025 Repurchase Plan does not have an expiration date. On October 22, 2025, the Board approved an increase to the share repurchase plan authorization up to $1.0 billion (including amounts repurchased as of such date under the 2025 Repurchase Plan).
Repurchased shares are retired, resulting in a reduction to common stock at par with the remainder to additional paid-in capital. Once repurchased, the shares are returned to the status of authorized but unissued shares of the Company and reduce the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for purposes of calculating basic and diluted earnings per share. During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company repurchased approximately 171,000 and 63,000 shares of common stock, respectively, for a total of $12.1 million and $5.4 million, respectively, including commissions and excise taxes, under the 2025 Repurchase Plan. The average price paid per share for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 was $70.92 and $84.86, respectively. As of March 31, 2026, $688.1 million remains available for repurchases under the 2025 Repurchase Plan.

Table of Contents
Operating Activities
The increase in cash provided by operating activities was due primarily to improved operating performance, partially offset by changes in working capital.
Investing Activities
The increase in cash used in investing activities was due primarily to our acquisition of Trans Union de Mexico, partially offset by proceeds from the sale of two Cost Method Investments and a prior year investment in a note receivable.
Financing Activities
The increase in cash provided by financing activities was due primarily to borrowings from the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility for the purchase of Trans Union de Mexico, partially offset by dividends paid to shareholders of Trans Union de Mexico.
Capital Expenditures
We make capital expenditures to grow our business by developing new and enhanced capabilities, to increase the effectiveness and efficiency of the organization and to reduce risks. We make capital expenditures for product development, disaster recovery, security enhancements, regulatory compliance and the replacement and upgrade of existing equipment at the end of its useful life.
Cash paid for capital expenditures decreased $3.2 million, from $68.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, to $65.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026. Capital expenditures as a percentage of revenue represented 5.2% and 6.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Debt
Hedges
In 2025, we entered into interest rate swap agreements with various counterparties that effectively fix our variable interest rate exposure on a portion of our Senior Secured Term Loans or similar replacement debt. The swaps commenced on June 30, 2025 and expire on December 31, 2027, with a current aggregate notional amount of $1,232.1 million that amortizes each quarter. The swaps require us to pay fixed rates varying between 3.2893% and 3.6920% in exchange for receiving a variable rate that matches the variable rate on our loans. We have designated these swap agreements as cash flow hedges.
In 2024, we entered into interest rate swap agreements with various counterparties that effectively fix our variable interest rate exposure on a portion of our Senior Secured Term Loans or similar replacement debt. The swaps commenced on December 31, 2024, and expire on December 31, 2027, with a current aggregate notional amount of $1,078.5 million that amortizes each quarter. The swaps require us to pay fixed rates varying between 3.0650% and 3.9925% in exchange for receiving a variable rate that matches the variable rate on our loans. We have designated these swap agreements as cash flow hedges.
In 2021, we entered into interest rate swap agreements with various counterparties that effectively fix our variable interest rate exposure on a portion of our Senior Secured Term Loans or similar replacement debt. The swaps commenced on December 31, 2021, and expire on December 31, 2026, with a current aggregate notional amount of $1,532.0 million that amortizes each quarter. The swaps require us to pay fixed rates varying between 1.3800% and 1.3915% in exchange for receiving a variable rate that matches the variable rate on our loans. We have designated these swap agreements as cash flow hedges.
Effect of Certain Debt Covenants
A breach of any of the covenants under the agreements governing our debt could limit our ability to borrow funds under the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility and could result in a default under the Senior Secured Credit Facility. Upon the occurrence of an event of default under the Senior Secured Credit Facility, the lenders could elect to declare all amounts then outstanding to be immediately due and payable, and the lenders could terminate all commitments to extend further credit. If we were unable to repay the amounts declared due, the lenders could proceed against any collateral granted to them to secure that indebtedness.
With certain exceptions, the Senior Secured Credit Facility obligations are secured by a first-priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of Trans Union LLC, including its investment in subsidiaries. The Senior Secured Credit Facility contains various restrictions and nonfinancial covenants, along with a senior secured net leverage ratio test. The nonfinancial covenants include restrictions on dividends, investments, dispositions, future borrowings and other specified payments, as well as additional reporting and disclosure requirements. The senior secured net leverage test must be met as a condition to incur additional indebtedness, make certain investments, and may be required to make certain restricted payments. The senior secured
51

Table of Contents
net leverage ratio must not exceed 5.5-to-1 at any such measurement date. Under the terms of the Senior Secured Credit Facility, TransUnion may make dividend payments up to the greater of $100 million or 10.0% of Consolidated EBITDA per year, or an unlimited amount provided that no default or event of default exists and so long as the total net leverage ratio does not exceed 4.75-to-1. As of March 31, 2026, we were in compliance with all debt covenants.
Our ability to meet our liquidity needs or to pay dividends on our common stock depends on our subsidiaries’ earnings, the terms of their indebtedness, and other contractual restrictions.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
There have been no other material changes from the quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
In the normal course of business, we are exposed to market risk, primarily from changes in variable interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates, which could impact our results of operations and financial position. We manage the exposure to this market risk through our regular operating and financing activities. We may use derivative financial instruments, such as foreign currency and interest rate hedges, but only as a risk management tool and not for speculative or trading purposes.
Interest Rate Risk
Our Senior Secured Credit Facility consists of Senior Secured Term Loans and a $1.0 billion Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility. The variable interest rates on these borrowings are based, at our election, on SOFR or an alternate base rate, subject to floors, plus applicable margins. As of March 31, 2026, essentially all of our outstanding debt was variable-rate debt. Approximately 68.5% of our variable-rate debt is hedged with interest rate swaps. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, a 10% change in the average Term SOFR rates utilized in the calculation of our actual interest expense would have increased our annual interest expense by approximately $6.6 million.
Based on the amount of unhedged outstanding variable-rate debt, we have a material exposure to interest rate risk. In the future, our exposure to interest rate risk may change due to changes in the amount borrowed, changes in interest rates, or changes in the amount we have hedged. The amount of our outstanding debt, and the ratio of fixed-rate debt to variable-rate debt, can be expected to vary as a result of future business requirements, market conditions or other factors.
See Part I, Item 1, “Financial Information - Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements,” Note 10, “Debt” for additional information about interest rates on our debt.

Table of Contents
Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
A substantial majority of our revenue, expense and capital expenditure activities are transacted in U.S. dollars. However, we transact business in a number of foreign currencies, including British pounds sterling, the South African rand, the Canadian dollar, the Indian rupee, the Colombian peso and the Brazilian real. In addition, in November 2025 we entered into a foreign currency forward contract to economically hedge our exposure of a portion of the purchase price for our acquisition of a majority interest in Trans Union de Mexico, which was denominated in Mexican pesos. In reporting the results of our foreign operations, we benefit from a weaker U.S. dollar and are adversely affected by a stronger U.S. dollar relative to the foreign currencies.
We are required to translate the assets and liabilities of our foreign subsidiaries that are measured in foreign currencies at the applicable period-end exchange rate in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. We are required to translate revenue and expenses at the average exchange rates prevailing during the year in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. The resulting translation adjustment is included in other comprehensive income as a component of stockholders’ equity. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in other income and (expense) as incurred.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. The term “disclosure controls and procedures” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.
Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

FAQ

How did TransUnion (TRU) perform financially in Q1 2026?

TransUnion’s Q1 2026 revenue was $1,245.7 million and net income attributable to TransUnion was $397.1 million. Revenue increased from $1,095.7 million a year earlier, while net income rose from $148.1 million, helped by a significant gain on an acquisition-related remeasurement.

What is notable about TransUnion’s acquisition of Trans Union de Mexico?

TransUnion acquired an additional 68% of Trans Union de Mexico for about $659.7 million in cash. Total purchase consideration was $986.5 million, including the fair value of its prior 26% stake and the noncontrolling interest, giving TransUnion roughly a 94% controlling interest in Mexico’s largest consumer credit bureau.

How did TransUnion fund the Trans Union de Mexico acquisition?

TransUnion primarily used its Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility and cash on hand. The company increased revolver borrowings by $520.0 million and raised total debt to $5,607.4 million, while remaining in compliance with all covenants under its Senior Secured Credit Facility.

What drove TransUnion’s unusually low effective tax rate in Q1 2026?

TransUnion reported a 6.5% effective tax rate in Q1 2026, well below the 21.0% U.S. statutory rate. The main drivers were the non-taxable gain on the Trans Union de Mexico step acquisition and benefits from eliminating a deferred tax liability linked to that investment and state tax changes.

How much cash flow did TransUnion generate from operations in Q1 2026?

TransUnion generated $84.2 million of cash from operating activities in Q1 2026. This compared with $52.5 million a year earlier, reflecting higher net income and non-cash items, partially offset by working capital movements including higher trade accounts receivable and lower accrued liabilities.

What is the status of TransUnion’s share repurchase program as of March 31, 2026?

TransUnion repurchased about 171,000 shares for $12.1 million in Q1 2026 under its 2025 Repurchase Plan. The average price paid was $70.92 per share, and $688.1 million of authorization remained available for future repurchases with no stated expiration date.

How did TransUnion’s segment revenues perform in Q1 2026?

U.S. Markets revenue reached $975.1 million and International revenue was $274.0 million in Q1 2026. U.S. Markets grew from $856.6 million, while International increased from $242.2 million, helped by contributions from Latin America, including Trans Union de Mexico, and other regions.
