Management reduced the midpoint of its full-year 2026 revenue guidance to USD 6.661 billion because of continued weakness in the U.S. mortgage market. The company retained adjusted earnings guidance of USD 8.45 to USD 8.55 per share, according to Equifax.

Cash returns and mortgage risks

Equifax returned USD 158 million to shareholders during the third quarter, including USD 92 million in share repurchases and USD 66 million in quarterly dividends. The release also said the company expects its Circulo de Credito acquisition to close in the fourth quarter of 2026.

Stock position in context

The operating figures point to a split picture: diversified business lines grew at high single-digit or faster rates, while mortgage weakness prompted a lower revenue outlook. For investors, the contrast between 10.00 percent quarterly revenue growth and the reduced full-year revenue midpoint is the central financial detail.
