Equifax's Fourth-Quarter Revenue Misses Estimates Amid Economic Challenges
Equifax, one of the leading consumer credit reporting firms, reported a fourth-quarter revenue that fell short of estimates as economic factors such as a weaker hiring market and moderate mortgage growth impacted its results. For more details, see the full report on Yahoo Finance.
According to data from IndexBox, the Atlanta-based company's revenue increased by 7%, reflecting a 29% rise in U.S. mortgage revenue, though it did not meet analysts' forecast of $1.44 billion. The workforce solutions unit, Equifax's largest operational sector, experienced a 7% rise to $598.1 million, but still suffered from a slower hiring market in the United States. Despite the Federal Reserve cutting interest rates by 100 basis points, many prospective homebuyers remain hesitant, waiting for even more favorable conditions, affecting Equifax's demand for mortgage-related services.
While the adjusted profit reached $2.12 per share, surpassing Wall Street's expectation of $2.10 per share, the outlook for 2025 suggests revenue between $5.89 billion and $6.01 billion, with mortgage credit inquiries missing the anticipated $6.27 billion mark. As Equifax, along with peers Experian and TransUnion, navigates these challenging times, the company's financial performance highlights broader economic trends reshaping the credit reporting industry.
