Third Quarter 2025 Revenue
Third-quarter revenue increased 9% year over year, representing an increase of over $300 million. This increase was driven primarily by Ratings and Market Intelligence. Revenue from subscription products increased 6%. (1) Total revenue includes the impact of inter-segment eliminations of $47M and $51M in 3Q '24 and 3Q '25, respectively.
Third Quarter 2025 Operating Profit, Expense, and Operating Margin
Note: All presentations of revenue above refer to GAAP revenue. Adjusted financials refer to non-GAAP adjusted metrics in all periods.
The Company’s third-quarter reported operating profit margin increased by 300 basis points to 43.1%, and adjusted operating profit margin increased 330 basis points to 52.1%. Margin improvement on both a GAAP and adjusted basis was driven primarily by growth and margin expansion in the Company's Ratings and Market Intelligence divisions.
Third Quarter 2025 Diluted Earnings Per Share
| 3Q '25 | 3Q '24 | y/y change |
|---|
| GAAP Diluted EPS | $3.86 | $3.11 | 24% |
| Adjusted Diluted EPS | $4.73 | $3.89 | 22% |
Third quarter GAAP diluted earnings per share increased 24% to $3.86 primarily due to a 21% increase in net income, and a 2% reduction in diluted shares outstanding.
Adjusted diluted earnings per share increased 22% to $4.73 due to a 19% increase in adjusted net income and a 2% decrease in diluted shares outstanding. Currency positively impacted both GAAP and adjusted diluted EPS by $0.03. The largest non-core adjustment to earnings in the third quarter of 2025 was for deal-related amortization.
Since reporting 2Q25 results in July, the Company has returned approximately $1.5 billion to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases, which contributed to the 2% reduction in average diluted shares noted above.
Full-Year 2025 Outlook
| GAAP | Adjusted |
|---|
| Revenue growth | 7% - 8% | 7% - 8% |
| Corporate unallocated expense | $350 - $360 million | $200 - $210 million |
| Deal-related amortization | ~$1.11 billion | ~$1.11 billion |
| Operating profit margin | 42.5% - 43% | 50% - 50.5% |
| Operating profit margin, excluding OSTTRA | 42% - 42.5% | 49.5% - 50% |
| Interest expense, net | $305 - $315 million | $330 - $340 million |
| Tax rate | 21.0% - 22.0% | 21.5% - 22.5% |
| Diluted EPS | $14.80 - $15.05 | $17.60 - $17.85 |
| Capital expenditures | $180 - $190 million | $180 - $190 million |
In addition to the above, the Company expects 2025 cash provided by operating activities, less capital expenditures and distributions to noncontrolling interest holders, of $5.4 - $5.6 billion. The Company expects adjusted free cash flow, excluding certain items, of $5.6 - $5.8 billion. Both of these ranges are unchanged from prior guidance.
As a result of the stronger-than-expected results in the third quarter, and higher full-year expectations for revenue growth and profitability in multiple divisions, the Company is increasing the guidance ranges for Revenue growth, and GAAP and adjusted diluted EPS. Corporate unallocated expense is expected to be $65 million higher on a GAAP basis, compared to prior guidance in the range of $285 - $295 million. Corporate unallocated expense is expected to be $5 million lower on an adjusted basis, compared to prior guidance in the range of $205 - $215 million. As a result, the company is tightening the range for GAAP operating margin guidance from the prior range of 42.5% - 43.5%, and raising the guidance range for adjusted operating margin from the prior range of 48.5% - 49.5%.
The Company is raising guidance for GAAP diluted EPS from the previous range of $14.35 - $14.60 and raising guidance for adjusted diluted EPS from the previous range of $17.00 - $17.25. Other guidance metrics are unchanged from prior guidance.
GAAP and non-GAAP adjusted guidance include the impact of acquisitions and divestitures completed in 2024, and reflects the completion of the OSTTRA divestiture, as of October 10, 2025. Non-GAAP adjusted guidance excludes amortization of intangibles related to acquisitions.
As previously announced, the Board of Directors has authorized a quarterly cash dividend of $0.96.

Comparison of Adjusted Information to U.S. GAAP Information: The Company reports its financial results in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). The Company also refers to and presents certain additional non-GAAP financial measures, within the meaning of Regulation G under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These measures are: adjusted net income; adjusted diluted EPS; adjusted operating profit and margin; adjusted expenses; adjusted corporate unallocated expense; adjusted deal-related amortization; adjusted interest expense, net; adjusted provision for income taxes; adjusted effective tax rate; organic revenue; organic constant currency revenue; cash provided by operating activities, less capital expenditures and distributions to noncontrolling interest holders; free cash flow; and adjusted free cash flow excluding certain items.
The Company has included reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP on Exhibits 5, 7, and 8. The Company is 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 the Company's control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted without unreasonable effort.
The Company's non-GAAP measures include adjustments that reflect how management views our businesses. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information that, in the case of non-GAAP financial measures other than cash provided by operating activities, less capital expenditures and distributions to noncontrolling interest holders; free cash flow; and adjusted free cash flow excluding certain items, enables investors to better compare the Company's performance across periods, and management also uses these measures internally to assess the operating performance of its business, to assess performance for employee compensation purposes and to decide how to allocate resources. The Company believes that the presentation of cash provided by operating activities, less capital expenditures and distributions to noncontrolling interest holders; free cash flow; and adjusted free cash flow excluding certain items allows investors to evaluate the cash generated from our underlying operations in a manner similar to the method used by management and that such measures are useful in evaluating the cash available to us to prepay debt, make strategic acquisitions and investments, and repurchase stock. However, investors should not consider any of these non-GAAP measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, the financial information that the Company reports.
