The Zacks Consensus Estimate for EFX’s earnings has been revised upward by 5.5% year over year to $1.92 per share. Meanwhile, the consensus estimate for revenues is pegged at $1.51 billion, which indicates a rise of 5.9% year over year.
EFX has an encouraging earnings surprise history. It has outperformed the Zacks Consensus Estimate in each of the four preceding quarters, with an average of 4.2%.
The top line is expected to have been fueled by improved segmental performances. We anticipate revenue growth and strong margin expansion to have benefited the bottom line.
Revenues from Workforce Solutions are likely to grow marginally year over year. Our estimate is pegged at $652.8 million. Our expectation for second-quarter 2025 revenues from U.S. Information Solutions (USIS) is pegged at $509.2 million, implying a 6.5% rise from the year-ago quarter’s number. Strong mortgage performance is expected to have driven this segment’s revenues.
We anticipate total international revenues to increase 6.5% from the year-ago quarter to $361.3 million. This segment’s revenues are likely to have benefited from robust growth across Latin America, Canada, Australia and Europe.
Adjusted EBITDA for the USIS and International segments is likely to witness year-over-year growth of 13.2% and 9.7% to $179.6 million and $95.3 million, respectively. We expect strong revenue growth and disciplined cost execution to have boosted the adjusted EBITDA of each segment.
The adjusted EBITDA for Workplace Solutions is likely to be $339.3 million, up 4.8% from the year-ago quarter’s actual.
