Read MoreHide Full Article
Chicago, IL-based TransUnion (TRU - Free Report) is a consumer information services company that offers data and analytics solutions, particularly in credit risk management. The company is one of the three largest credit reporting agencies in the U.S.
However, TRU caters to a highly competitive market. Its competitors widely vary according to its business segment, geographical market and industry vertical that its solutions address. The high degree of competition restricts its pricing power to some degree.
In the last four trailing quarters, TRU has managed to beat estimates thrice, registering a positive average earnings surprise of 13.6%.
