NORWALK, Conn., December 18, 2025 - FactSet (“FactSet” or the “Company”) (NYSE:FDS) (NASDAQ:FDS), a global financial digital platform and enterprise solutions provider, today announced results for its first quarter fiscal 2026 ended November 30, 2025.
First Quarter Fiscal 2026 Highlights
- GAAP revenues increased 6.9%, or $38.9 million, to $607.6 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2026 compared with $568.7 million in the prior year period. Organic revenues grew 6.0% year over year to $600.0 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2026. Growth in GAAP and organic revenues this quarter was driven by institutional buy-side and dealmakers clients.
- Annual Subscription Value ("ASV") was $2,411.1 million at November 30, 2025, compared with $2,265.9 million at November 30, 2024. Organic ASV was $2,389.6 million at November 30, 2025, up 5.9% or $132.9 million year over year.
- Organic ASV increased $6.6 million over the last three months. Please see the “ASV” section of this press release for details.
- GAAP operating margin decreased to 31.6% compared with 33.6% for the prior year period primarily due to higher amortization of intangible assets, employee compensation costs and technology-related expenses, partially offset by growth in revenues. Adjusted operating margin decreased to 36.2% compared with 37.6% in the prior year period, mainly due to higher technology and third-party content expenses.
- GAAP diluted earnings per share ("EPS") increased 4.4% to $4.06 compared with $3.89 for the same period in fiscal 2025, mainly driven by growth in revenues and a gain on sale of certain equity investments, partially offset by higher operating expenses. Adjusted diluted EPS increased 3.2% to $4.51 compared with $4.37 in the prior year period, driven by growth in revenues and a lower share count, offset by a higher tax rate.
- Net cash provided by operating activities was $121.3 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2026, an increase of 40.4% compared with the prior year period. Free cash flow increased to $90.4 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2026, compared with $60.5 million for the prior year period, an increase of 49.5%, primarily due to higher operating cash flows.
- GAAP effective tax rate for the first quarter of fiscal 2026 increased to 19.7% compared with 16.5% for the first quarter of fiscal 2025. The increase was primarily due to a stock-based compensation tax shortfall in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to an excess tax benefit for the prior year period.
(1) References to "organic" figures in this press release exclude the current year impact of acquisitions and dispositions completed within the past 12 months and the current year impact from changes in foreign currency.

Forward-looking Statements
Forward-looking statements notice
This press release contains forward-looking statements based on management's current expectations, estimates, forecasts and projections about future events, trends, contingencies, and circumstances, industries in which FactSet operates and the beliefs and assumptions of management. All statements that address expectations, guidance, outlook or projections about the future, including statements about the Company's strategy, product development, revenues, future financial results, anticipated growth, market position, subscriptions, expected expenditures or investments, trends in FactSet’s business and financial results, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements may be identified by words like "may," "might," "will," "should," "expects," "plans," "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "intends," "projects," "indicates," "predicts," "potential," or "continue," the negative of those terms, and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, outcomes, events, or actions and involve a number of known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Many factors, including those discussed more fully elsewhere in this release and in FactSet's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, particularly its latest annual report on Form 10-K, including Item 1A, Risk Factors, and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, as well as others, could cause results, performance, achievements, or activities to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Accordingly, the Company cautions readers not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made. FactSet assumes no duty to and does not undertake to update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances arising after the date on which it is made, except as required by applicable law. Future results could differ materially from historical performance.
About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company also refers to and presents certain additional non-GAAP financial measures. These measures include: organic revenues, adjusted operating margin, adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted diluted EPS, and free cash flow. The Company has included reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP at the back of this release.
FactSet uses these non-GAAP financial measures both in presenting its results to stockholders and the investment community and in its internal evaluation and management of the business. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information to investors because they permit investors to view the Company’s performance using the same tools that management uses to gauge progress in achieving its goals. Investors may benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing the Company’s performance and when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods, and such measures may also facilitate comparisons to historical performance. The Company believes that organic revenues, adjusted operating margin, adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, and adjusted diluted EPS help to fully reflect the underlying economic performance of FactSet. The Company believes that free cash flow is useful to investors because it is an indication of cash flow that may be available to fund investments in future growth initiatives. The presentation of this non-GAAP financial information should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. We are not able to provide reconciliations of certain forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to comparable GAAP measures because certain items required for such reconciliations are outside of our control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted without unreasonable effort.
