The Zacks Consensus Estimate for Equifax’s top line is pinned at $1.5 billion, hinting at a 5.6% rise from the year-ago quarter’s actual. We anticipate the overall improving segmental performance to have enhanced the top line.
We expect revenues from Workforce Solutions to increase 3.5% year over year. Our estimate is pegged at $641.7 million. We anticipate verifier, government and consumer lending businesses to have improved, providing a significant upward momentum to this segment’s revenues.
Our estimate for third-quarter 2025 revenues from U.S. Information Solutions (“USIS”) is pinned at $509.6 million, implying a 6.9% rise from the year-ago quarter’s reported number. We are expecting a significant rally in mortgage revenues due to annual price hikes related to credit scores and high growth in preapproval products to have augmented this segment’s revenues.
We anticipate total international revenues to increase 6.9% from the year-ago quarter to $368.6 million. A robust performance across Europe and Latin America is likely to have a positive impact on this segment.
Adjusted EBITDA for the USIS and International segments is expected to experience year-over-year growth of 11.2% and 13.7%, respectively, to $179.6 million and $108.7 million.
The adjusted EBITDA for Workplace Solutions is likely to be $327.4 million, up 2.3% from the year-ago quarter’s actual.
The consensus estimate for earnings per share is set at $1.93, suggesting 4.3% year-over-year growth. Strong margin growth is expected to have improved the bottom line.
