Equifax beats by $0.03, reports revs in-line; guides Q3 EPS below consensus, revs below consensus; guides FY23 EPS below consensus, revs in-line

• Reports Q2 (Jun) earnings of $1.71 per share, excluding non-recurring items, $0.03 better than the FactSet Consensus of $1.68; revenues rose 0.1% year/year to $1.32 bln vs the $1.33 bln FactSet Consensus.
• Co issues downside guidance for Q3, sees EPS of $1.72-1.82, excluding non-recurring items, vs. $1.97 FactSet Consensus; sees Q3 revs of $1.32-1.34 bln vs. $1.35 bln FactSet Consensus.
• Co issues guidance for FY23, sees EPS of $6.85-7.10, excluding non-recurring items, vs. $7.17 FactSet Consensus; sees FY23 revs of $5.27-5.33 bln vs. $5.32 bln FactSet Consensus. Reduced guidance reflects more negative impact of the weaker mortgage market and loss of high margin mortgage revenue.
• "We expect the weaker than expected U.S. mortgage market that we saw in June to continue, and we now expect full year mortgage originations to decline about 37%, which is down five percentage points from our prior framework. We also expect to see the slowing in U.S. hiring to continue throughout 2023, but expect to offset this impact on non-mortgage revenue with stronger growth in the Workforce Government business, as well as solid performance in USIS and International."

Equifax (EFX): security breach leaks personal info of 143 million US consumers

 

** 5 days later **

Equifax announced cybersecurity incident potentially impacting approximately 143 million U.S. consumers; no evidence of unauthorized access to core consumer or commercial credit reporting databases

• Criminals exploited a U.S. website application vulnerability to gain access to certain files. Based on the company's investigation, the unauthorized access occurred from mid-May through July 2017. The company has found no evidence of unauthorized activity on Equifax's core consumer or commercial credit reporting databases. The information accessed primarily includes names, Social Security numbers, birth dates, addresses and, in some instances, driver's license numbers.
• In addition, credit card numbers for approximately 209,000 U.S. consumers, and certain dispute documents with personal identifying information for approximately 182,000 U.S. consumers, were accessed. As part of its investigation of this application vulnerability, Equifax also identified unauthorized access to limited personal information for certain UK and Canadian residents. Equifax will work with UK and Canadian regulators to determine appropriate next steps. The company has found no evidence that personal information of consumers in any other country has been impacted.
