Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements

(Tabular amounts in millions, except per share amounts)

1. Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of TransUnion and subsidiaries have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial statements and, in our opinion, include all adjustments of a normal recurring nature necessary for a fair statement of the interim periods presented. As a result of displaying amounts in millions, rounding differences may exist in the financial statements and footnote tables. The interim results presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2025. The Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet data for the year ended December 31, 2024 was derived from audited financial statements. Therefore, these unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 13, 2025.

Unless the context indicates otherwise, any reference in this report to the “Company,” “we,” “our,” “us,” and “its” refers to TransUnion and its consolidated subsidiaries, collectively.

For the periods presented, TransUnion does not have any material assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses or operations of any kind other than its ownership investment in TransUnion Intermediate Holdings, Inc.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements of TransUnion include the accounts of TransUnion and all of its controlled subsidiaries. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated.

Investments in Affiliated Companies

Investments in nonmarketable unconsolidated entities in which the Company is able to exercise significant influence are accounted for using the equity method. Investments in nonmarketable unconsolidated entities in which the Company is not able to exercise significant influence, our “Cost Method Investments,” are accounted for at our initial cost, minus any impairment, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer.

Variable Interest Entities

At inception, we determine whether an entity in which we have made an investment or with which we have other variable interest arrangements is considered a variable interest entity (“VIE”). We are required to consolidate any VIE if we are the primary beneficiary of the VIE. We are the primary beneficiary of a VIE if we have the power to direct activities that most significantly affect the economic performance of the VIE and have the obligation to absorb a portion of the losses or benefits that are significant to the VIE. If we are not the primary beneficiary of the VIE, we account for the investment or other variable interests in the VIE in accordance with other applicable GAAP. When events or circumstances change our variable interests or relationships with any of these entities, we reassess our determination of whether they are a VIE and, if so, whether we are the primary beneficiary. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we have a variable interest in one unconsolidated VIE with a current exposure of loss of approximately $54.8 million and $35.3 million, respectively, consisting of the current carrying value of our investment in and various accounts and notes receivable from this entity.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported. We believe that the estimates used in preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements are reasonable, based upon information available to management at this time. These estimates and judgments affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date, as well as the amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting period. Estimates are inherently uncertain and actual results could differ materially from the estimated amounts.

Table of Contents

Share Repurchase Plan

On February 11, 2025, our Board of Directors (our “Board”) authorized the repurchase of up to $500.0 million of our common stock (the “2025 Repurchase Plan”). Repurchases may be made from time to time at management’s discretion, at prices management considers to be attractive, through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, including pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 plan, hybrid open market repurchases or an accelerated share repurchase transaction, subject to availability. Open market purchases are conducted in accordance with the limitations set forth in Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and other applicable legal requirements. We have no obligation to repurchase additional shares, and the timing, actual number and value of the shares that are repurchased, if any, are at the discretion of management. The 2025 Repurchase Plan does not have an expiration date.

Repurchased shares are retired, resulting in a reduction to common stock at par with the remainder to additional paid-in capital. Once repurchased, the shares are returned to the status of authorized but unissued shares of the Company and reduce the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for purposes of calculating basic and diluted earnings per share. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company repurchased approximately 63,000 shares of common stock for a total of $5.4 million, including commissions and excise taxes, under the 2025 Repurchase Plan. The average price paid per share was $84.86. As of March 31, 2025, $494.7 million remains available for repurchases under the 2025 Repurchase Plan.

Trade Accounts Receivable

We base our allowance for doubtful accounts estimate on our historical loss experience, our current expectations of future losses, current economic conditions, an analysis of the aging of outstanding receivables and customer payment patterns, and specific reserves for customers in adverse financial condition or for existing contractual disputes.

The following is a roll-forward of the allowance for doubtful accounts for the periods presented:


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2025		2024
Beginning balance	$	19.9	$	16.4
Provision for losses on trade accounts receivable	7.5		4.7
Write-offs, net of recovered accounts	(3.0)		(3.5)
Ending balance	$	24.4	$	17.6

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

On December 14, 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740), Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. This ASU requires income tax disclosures to include consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliations and the disaggregation of income taxes paid by federal, state and foreign, and also for individual jurisdictions that are greater than 5% of total income taxes paid. The update is effective for annual periods for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently assessing the impact that adopting this ASU would have on our consolidated financial statements.

On November 4, 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-04), Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. This ASU requires disclosure within the notes to financial statements of specific information about certain costs and expenses including more detailed disclosures of certain categories of expenses such as employee compensation, depreciation and intangible asset amortization that are components of existing expense captions presented on the face of the income statement. The update is effective for annual periods for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027 on a prospective or retrospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently assessing the impact that adopting this ASU would have on our consolidated financial statements.

	2025		2024
Earnings from equity method investments (Note 14)	$	4.3	$	4.7

7. Other Current Liabilities

Other current liabilities consisted of the following:


	March 31, 2025		December 31, 2024
Accrued payroll and employee benefits	$	101.9	$	269.8
Accrued legal and regulatory matters (Note 15)	70.6		123.5

The decrease in accrued payroll and employee benefits is primarily due to bonuses paid during the first quarter of 2025 that were earned in 2024. The decrease in accrued legal and regulatory matters is primarily due to the dismissal of a lawsuit as further discussed in Note 15, “Contingencies.” Other includes a $3.0 million interest rate swap liability as discussed in Note 13, “Fair Value.”

8. Restructuring

On November 12, 2023, our Board approved a transformation plan to optimize our operating model and continue to advance our technology. The transformation plan includes an operating model optimization program that will eliminate certain roles, transition certain job responsibilities to global capability centers, and reduce our facility footprint. The Company expects to record pre-tax expenses associated with the operating model optimization program of approximately $155.0 million from the fourth quarter of 2023 through the end of 2025, consisting of approximately $110.0 million of employee separation expenses and $45.0 million of facility exit expenses. To date, we have incurred a total of $142.1 million in pre-tax expenses.

Senior Secured Credit Facility

On June 15, 2010, we entered into a Senior Secured Credit Facility with various lenders. This facility has been amended several times and currently consists of the Senior Secured Term Loan B-8, Senior Secured Term Loan B-9, Senior Secured Term Loan B-5, Senior Secured Term Loan A-4 (collectively, the “Senior Secured Term Loans”), and the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility.

On February 8, 2024, we executed Amendment No. 22 to the Senior Secured Credit Facility, pursuant to which we entered into Senior Secured Term Loan B-7 with an aggregate principal amount of $1.9 billion, the proceeds of which were used to repay Senior Secured Term Loan B-6 in full and pay the related financing fees and expenses. In connection with the refinancing, we incurred incremental deferred financing fees of $4.7 million that will be amortized over the new loan term. Senior Secured Term Loan B-7 is a syndicated debt instrument. As a result of the refinancing, we repaid $257.1 million of principal to exiting lenders and to lenders where the refinancing resulted in a reduction in principal and received $264.1 million of proceeds from new lenders and additional principal from existing lenders.

On June 24, 2024, we executed Amendment No. 23 to the Senior Secured Credit Facility, pursuant to which we entered into Senior Secured Term Loan B-8 with an aggregate principal amount of $1.5 billion, the proceeds of which were used to repay a portion of Senior Secured Term Loan B-5. The maturity date of the Senior Secured Credit Facility and Senior Secured Term Loan A-4 were also extended from October 27, 2028 to June 24, 2029, subject to a springing maturity of 91 days prior to the maturity date of certain long-term indebtedness, if, on such date, the principal amount of such indebtedness exceeds $250 million, and the credit spread adjustment was removed from the periodic interest rate for both instruments.

On December 12, 2024, we executed Amendment No. 24 to the Senior Secured Credit Facility, pursuant to which we entered into Senior Secured Term Loan B-9 with an aggregate principal amount of $1.9 billion, the proceeds of which were used to repay in full Senior Secured Term Loan B-7. In addition, we increased the principal on Senior Secured Term Loan B-8 by $425.0 million and used the increase in proceeds to repay a portion of Senior Secured Term Loan B-5.

In connection with these refinancings, during the three months ended March 31, 2024, we expensed $3.1 million of the unamortized original issue discount, deferred financing fees, and other related fees to other income and expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Table of Contents

We did not make any debt prepayments during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.

As of March 31, 2025, we had no outstanding balance under the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility and $1.2 million of outstanding letters of credit, and could have borrowed up to the remaining $598.8 million available.

TransUnion also has the ability to request incremental loans on the same terms under the Senior Secured Credit Facility up to the sum of the greater of $1,000.0 million and 100% of Consolidated EBITDA, minus the amount of secured indebtedness and the amount incurred prior to the incremental loan, and may incur additional incremental loans so long as the senior secured net leverage ratio does not exceed 4.25-to-1, subject to certain additional conditions and commitments by existing or new lenders to fund any additional borrowings.

With certain exceptions, the Senior Secured Credit Facility obligations are secured by a first-priority security interest in substantially all of the assets of Trans Union LLC, including its investment in subsidiaries. The Senior Secured Credit Facility contains various restrictions and nonfinancial covenants, along with a senior secured net leverage ratio test. The nonfinancial covenants include restrictions on dividends, investments, dispositions, future borrowings and other specified payments, as well as additional reporting and disclosure requirements. The senior secured net leverage test must be met as a condition to incur additional indebtedness, make certain investments, and may be required to make certain restricted payments. The senior secured net leverage ratio must not exceed 5.5-to-1 at any such measurement date. Under the terms of the Senior Secured Credit Facility, TransUnion may make dividend payments up to the greater of $100 million or 10.0% of Consolidated EBITDA per year, or an unlimited amount provided that no default or event of default exists and so long as the total net leverage ratio does not exceed 4.75-to-1. As of March 31, 2025, we were in compliance with all debt covenants.

Interest Rate Hedging

In 2024, we entered into interest rate swap agreements with various counterparties that effectively fix our variable interest rate exposure on a portion of our Senior Secured Term Loan or similar replacement debt. The swaps commenced on December 31, 2024, and expire on December 31, 2027, with a current aggregate notional amount of $1,095.7 million that amortizes each quarter. The swaps require us to pay fixed rates varying between 3.0650% and 3.9925% in exchange for receiving a variable rate that matches the variable rate on our loans. We have designated these swap agreements as cash flow hedges.

On December 23, 2021, we entered into interest rate swap agreements with various counterparties that effectively fix our variable interest rate exposure on a portion of our Senior Secured Term Loan or similar replacement debt. The swaps commenced on December 31, 2021, and expire on December 31, 2026, with a current aggregate notional amount of $1,548.0 million that amortizes each quarter. The swaps require us to pay fixed rates varying between 1.3800% and 1.3915% in exchange for receiving a variable rate that matches the variable rate on our loans. We have designated these swap agreements as cash flow hedges.

On March 10, 2020, we entered into two interest rate swap agreements with various counterparties that effectively fix our variable interest rate exposure on a portion of our Senior Secured Term Loans or similar replacement debt. The first swap commenced on June 30, 2020, and expired on June 30, 2022. The second swap commenced on June 30, 2022, and expires on June 30, 2025, with a current aggregate notional amount of $1,055.0 million that amortizes each quarter. The second swap requires us to pay fixed rates varying between 0.8680% and 0.8800% in exchange for receiving a variable rate that matches the variable rate on our loans. We have designated these swap agreements as cash flow hedges.

The net change in the fair value of our hedging instruments, included in our assessment of hedge effectiveness, is recorded in other comprehensive income, and reclassified to interest expense when the corresponding hedged interest affects earnings. See further discussion in Note 16, “Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss.”

We expect to realize gains of approximately $64.3 million as a reduction of interest expense from our interest rate hedges over the next twelve months.

Fair Value of Debt

The fair value of our variable-rate term loans, excluding original issue discounts and deferred fees, is $5,137.1 million and $5,165.6 million as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The fair values of our variable-rate term loans are determined using Level 2 inputs, based on quoted market prices for the publicly traded instruments.

11. Revenue

Accounts receivable are shown separately on our balance sheet. Contract assets and liabilities result due to the timing of revenue recognition, billings and cash collections. Contract assets include our right to payment for goods and services already transferred to a customer when the right to payment is conditional on something other than the passage of time, for example, contracts pursuant to which we recognize revenue over time but do not have a contractual right to payment until we complete the contract. Contract assets are included in our other current assets and are not material as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

As most of our contracts with customers have a duration of one year or less, our contract liabilities consist of deferred revenue that is primarily short-term in nature. Contract liabilities include current and long-term deferred revenue that is included in other current liabilities and other liabilities. We expect to recognize the December 31, 2024 current deferred revenue balance as revenue during 2025. The majority of our long-term deferred revenue, which is not material, is expected to be recognized in less than two years.

We have certain contracts that have a duration of more than one year. For these contracts, the transaction price allocable to the future performance obligations is primarily fixed but contains a variable component. As of March 31, 2025, the aggregate amount of transaction price attributable to future performance obligations for long-term non-cancelable contracts, excluding the variable component, is approximately $810 million. We expect to recognize approximately 50% of this amount in the twelve months ending March 31, 2026, 30% in the twelve months ending March 31, 2027 and 20% thereafter.

For additional disclosures about the disaggregation of our revenue see Note 14, “Reportable Segments.”

12. Income Taxes

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, we reported an effective tax rate of 21.2%, which was higher than the 21.0% U.S. federal corporate statutory rate, primarily due to the impact of nondeductible expenses primarily in connection with executive compensation limitations, the foreign rate differential, and state taxes, partially offset by the impact of the benefit to legal and regulatory expenses from the reduction of an accrued liability to zero for the dismissal of a lawsuit previously treated as nondeductible.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, we reported an effective tax rate of 15.7%, which was lower than the 21.0% U.S. federal corporate statutory rate, primarily due to the impact of benefits on the remeasurement of deferred taxes due to changes in state apportionment rates, benefits from the foreign rate differential, and the research and development credit, partially offset by the impact of increases for foreign withholding taxes, nondeductible expenses primarily in connection with executive compensation limitations and uncertain tax positions.

The gross amount of unrecognized tax benefits, which excludes indirect tax effects, was $45.5 million as of March 31, 2025, and $44.4 million as of December 31, 2024. The amounts that would affect the effective tax rate if recognized were $35.3 million as of March 31, 2025 and $34.4 million as of December 31, 2024. We classify interest and penalties as income tax expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and their associated liabilities as other liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits were $18.8 million as of March 31, 2025 and $17.7 million as of December 31, 2024. We are regularly audited by federal, state and foreign taxing authorities. Given the uncertainties inherent in the audit process, it is reasonably possible that certain audits could result in a significant increase or decrease in the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits. An estimate of the range of the increase or decrease in unrecognized tax benefits due to audit results cannot be made at this time. Tax years 2007 and forward remain open for examination in some foreign jurisdictions, 2012 and forward for U.S. federal income tax purposes and 2015 and forward in some state jurisdictions.

13. Fair Value

The following table summarizes financial instruments measured at fair value, on a recurring basis, as of March 31, 2025:


	Total		Level 1 - Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets		Level 2 -Significant Other Observable Input		Level 3 -Significant Unobservable Inputs
Assets
Interest rate swaps (Notes 5 and 10)	$	75.8	$	—	$	75.8	$	—

The following table summarizes financial instruments measured at fair value, on a recurring basis, as of December 31, 2024:


	Total		Level 1 - Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets		Level 2 -Significant Other Observable Input		Level 3 -Significant Unobservable Inputs
Assets
Interest rate swaps (Notes 5 and 10)	$	110.0	$	—	$	110.0	$	—
Note receivable (Note 2 and 5)	89.7		—		89.7		—
Marketable securities (Note 2)	2.5		—		2.5		—
Total	$	202.2	$	—	$	202.2	$	—

Level 2 instruments include interest rate swaps, a note receivable and available-for-sale marketable securities consisting of foreign exchange-traded corporate bonds.

We determine the fair value of the interest rate swaps each reporting period using the market standard methodology of discounting the future expected net cash receipts or payments that would occur if variable interest rates rise above or fall below the fixed rates of the swaps, with changes in fair value recognized in other comprehensive income. The variable interest rates used in the calculations of projected receipts on the swaps are based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observable market interest rate curves and volatilities. As discussed in Note 10, “Debt,” there are three tranches of interest rate swaps. Each individual swap contract is valued independently and recorded on a gross basis in other assets and other current liabilities.

We determine the fair value of the note receivable each reporting period using an income approach for fixed income securities where contractual cash flows are discounted to present value at a risk-adjusted rate of return in a lattice model framework using changes to the risk-adjusted rate of return given observed changes to the interest rate environment, market pricing of credit risk, and issuer-specific credit risk, with changes in fair value recognized in earnings each period. In December 2022, we sold the non-core businesses of our Verisk Financial acquisition, with a portion of the consideration received in the form of a $72.0 million note receivable. The note receivable accrues interest semiannually at a per annum rate of 10.6% and is payable at maturity. The note matures on June 30, 2025, subject to an option of the note issuer to extend the maturity date for two successive terms of three months each, at an increased rate of interest at each extension. The note is classified as current as of March 31, 2025 because repayment is required no later than December 31, 2025 when considering the two optional extensions. The note was initially recorded at fair value of $70.3 million.

We determine the fair value of the marketable securities, which are available-for-sale foreign exchange-traded corporate bonds, at their current quoted prices and they mature between 2027 and 2033. Unrealized gains and losses on the foreign exchange-traded corporate bonds, which are not material, are included in other comprehensive income.

Level 3 instruments consists of a convertible note receivable we obtained in the first quarter of 2025 from the variable interest entity we discuss in Note 1, “Significant Accounting Policies,” under the sub-heading “Variable Interest Entities.”

Table of Contents

The convertible note receivable is measured at fair value each period using an option pricing model with inputs based on the contractual terms of the convertible note. The significant unobservable inputs into the model include our estimates of the timing and probabilities of repayment or various conversion scenarios that result in a payoff in the form of preferred equity of the note issuer, and the value of the underlying preferred equity, which in part is based on forecasted revenue of the note issuer. We have elected to initially and subsequently measure this hybrid financial instrument at fair value, with changes in fair value recognized in interest income for the interest accretion component, and other income and (expense), net for other changes to fair value. The convertible note has a face amount of $20.0 million, with simple interest at 13% per annum, and matures 36 months after the purchase date. The note may be converted into various equity shares based on certain events, or may be repaid in cash. The note was initially recorded at a fair value of $20.0 million, which was equivalent to the cash transferred to obtain the convertible note.

14. Reportable Segments

We have two operating segments, U.S. Markets and International, and the Corporate unit, which provides support services to each of the segments. The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is the chief executive officer. The Company’s operating segments, which are consistent with its reportable segments, reflect the structure of the Company’s internal organization, the method by which the Company’s resources are allocated and the manner by which the CODM assesses the Company’s performance. Our CODM uses the profit measure of Adjusted EBITDA for our segments to allocate resources and assess performance of our businesses. We use Adjusted EBITDA as our profit measure because it eliminates the impact of certain items that we do not consider indicative of operating performance, which is useful to compare operating results between periods. The CODM uses Adjusted EBITDA for each segment predominantly in the annual budget and forecasting process. The CODM considers budget-to-actual variances on a quarterly basis when making decisions about the allocation of operating and capital resources to each segment.

Our Board and executive management team also use Adjusted EBITDA as a compensation measure for both segment and corporate management under our incentive compensation plans. Adjusted EBITDA is also a measure frequently used by securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties in their evaluation of the operating performance of companies similar to ours.

The segment financial information below aligns with how we report information to our CODM to assess operating performance and how we manage the business. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as described in Note 1, “Significant Accounting Policies” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

The following is a more detailed description of our reportable segments and the Corporate unit:

Table of Contents

International

The International segment provides services similar to our U.S. Markets segment to businesses in select regions outside the United States. Depending on the maturity of the credit economy in each country, services may include credit reports, analytics and solutions services, and other value-added risk management services. In addition, we have insurance, business, and automotive databases in select geographies. These services are offered to customers in a number of industries including financial services, insurance, automotive, collections, and communications and are delivered through both direct and indirect channels. The International segment also provides consumer services similar to those offered by our Consumer Interactive vertical in our U.S. Markets segment that help consumers proactively manage their personal finances and take precautions against identity theft.

We report disaggregated revenue of our International segment for the following regions: Canada, Latin America, the United Kingdom, Africa, India, and Asia Pacific.

Corporate

Corporate provides support services for each of the segments, holds investments, and conducts enterprise functions. Certain costs incurred in Corporate that are not directly attributable to either of the segments remain in Corporate. These costs are typically enterprise-level costs and are primarily administrative in nature.

Legal and Regulatory Matters

We are routinely named as defendants in, or parties to, various legal actions and proceedings relating to our current or past business operations. These actions generally assert claims for violations of federal or state credit reporting, consumer protection or privacy laws, or common law claims related to the unfair treatment of consumers, and may include claims for substantial or

Table of Contents

indeterminate compensatory or punitive damages, or injunctive relief, and may seek business practice changes. We believe that most of these claims are either without merit or we have valid defenses to the claims, and we vigorously defend these matters or seek non-monetary or small monetary settlements, if possible. However, due to the uncertainties inherent in litigation, we cannot predict the outcome of each claim in each instance.

In the ordinary course of business, we also are subject to governmental and regulatory examinations, information-gathering requests, investigations and proceedings (both formal and informal), certain of which may result in adverse judgments, settlements, fines, penalties, injunctions or other relief. In connection with formal and informal investigations and inquiries by regulators, we sometimes receive civil investigative demands, requests, subpoenas and orders seeking documents, testimony, and other information in connection with various aspects of our activities.

In view of the inherent unpredictability of legal and regulatory matters, particularly where the damages sought are substantial or indeterminate or when the proceedings or investigations are in the early stages, we cannot determine with any degree of certainty the timing or ultimate resolution of legal and regulatory matters or the eventual loss, fines or penalties, if any, that may result from such matters. We establish reserves for legal and regulatory matters when those matters present loss contingencies that are both probable and can be reasonably estimated. However, for certain of the matters, we are not able to reasonably estimate our exposure because damages or penalties have not been specified and (i) the proceedings are in early stages, (ii) there is uncertainty as to the likelihood of a class being certified or the ultimate size of the class, (iii) there is uncertainty as to the outcome of similar matters pending against our competitors, (iv) there are significant factual issues to be resolved, and/or (v) there are legal issues of a first impression being presented. The actual costs of resolving legal and regulatory matters, however, may be substantially higher than the amounts reserved for those matters, and an adverse outcome in certain of these matters could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial statements in particular quarterly or annual periods. We accrue amounts for certain legal and regulatory matters for which losses were considered to be probable of occurring based on our best estimate of the most likely outcome. It is reasonably possible actual losses could be significantly different from our current estimates. In addition, there are some matters for which it is reasonably possible that a loss will occur, however we cannot estimate a range of the potential losses for these matters.

To reduce our exposure to an unexpected significant monetary award resulting from an adverse judicial decision, we maintain insurance that we believe is appropriate and adequate based on our historical experience. We regularly advise our insurance carriers of the claims, threatened or pending, against us in legal and regulatory matters and generally receive a reservation of rights letter from the carriers when such claims exceed applicable deductibles. We are not aware of any significant monetary claim that has been asserted against us, except for the active matters with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (the “CFPB”) referenced below, that would not have some level of coverage by insurance after the relevant deductible, if any, is met.

As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we have accrued $70.6 million and $123.5 million, respectively, for legal and regulatory matters. These amounts were recorded in other accrued liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and the associated expenses are recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Legal fees incurred in connection with ongoing litigation are considered period costs and are expensed as incurred.

CFPB Matters

In June 2021, we received a Notice and Opportunity to Respond and Advise (“NORA”) letter from the CFPB alleging that we failed to comply with and timely implement a consent order issued by the CFPB in January 2017 (the “2017 Consent Order”), and further alleging additional violations related to Consumer Interactive’s marketing practices. On September 27, 2021, the Enforcement Division advised us that it had obtained authority to pursue an enforcement action. On April 12, 2022, after failed settlement negotiations with the CFPB related to the matter, the CFPB filed a lawsuit against us, Trans Union LLC, TransUnion Interactive, Inc. (collectively, the “TU Entities”) and the former President of Consumer Interactive, John Danaher, in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois seeking restitution, civil money penalties, and injunctive relief, among other remedies, and alleging that the TU Entities violated the 2017 Consent Order, engaged in deceptive acts and practices in marketing the TransUnion Credit Monitoring product, failed to obtain signed written authorizations from consumers before debiting their bank accounts for the TransUnion Credit Monitoring product and diverted consumers from their free annual file disclosure into paid subscription products. On February 28, 2025, the CFPB, the TU Entities and Mr. Danaher filed with the Court a joint stipulation to voluntarily dismiss the lawsuit with prejudice, and the Court dismissed the lawsuit on March 21, 2025. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we adjusted the amount previously accrued for this matter to zero, as the dismissal has rendered a loss no longer probable. As of December 31, 2024, we had accrued $56.0 million in connection with this matter.

In March 2024, we received a NORA letter from the CFPB, informing us that the CFPB’s Enforcement Division was considering whether to recommend that the CFPB take legal action against us related to our dispute handling practices and procedures. The NORA letter alleged that Trans Union LLC violated the Fair Credit Reporting Act’s requirements to conduct a reasonable reinvestigation of disputed information and follow reasonable procedures to assure maximum possible accuracy of

Table of Contents

the information in consumer reports, and the Consumer Financial Protection Act’s prohibition of unfair, deceptive, and abusive acts or practices. On July 12, 2024, the CFPB Enforcement Division advised us that it had obtained authority to pursue an enforcement action against us seeking specific injunctive relief provisions and civil money penalties. We had been engaged in active discussions with the CFPB regarding this matter, including that our ability to make proposed changes to certain dispute handling processes is dependent on the participation of other consumer reporting agencies, data furnishers and industry participants. Given recent changes in CFPB leadership, our engagement with the agency on this matter has paused. We cannot provide an estimate of when, or if, such engagement will resume. We further cannot provide assurance that the CFPB will not ultimately commence a lawsuit against us in this matter, nor are we able to predict the likely outcome of this matter, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. We are not able to reasonably estimate our potential loss or range of loss related to this matter.

17. Subsequent Events

On April 1, 2025, we closed on our previously announced agreement to acquire the remaining 70% of the outstanding equity of Monevo Limited (“Monevo”) from the Quint Group Limited. TransUnion previously owned 30% of the outstanding equity of Monevo after acquiring a minority interest in October 2021, and purchased the remaining interest through the exercise of a call option we obtained when we made our initial investment. The purchase price of approximately $56 million was funded with cash on hand and is subject to certain customary purchase price adjustments. There is no contingent consideration related to this transaction.

Due to the proximity of the closing date of the acquisition to the date of this filing, the initial accounting for the business combination is incomplete. As a result, at this time we are unable to disclose certain information including the provisional fair value estimate, the allocation of the fair value to the identifiable net assets acquired and goodwill, and any resulting gain or loss on our initial 30% equity ownership.

Segments

We manage our business and report our financial results in two reportable segments: U.S. Markets and International, which reflects the structure of the Company’s internal organization, the method by which the Company’s resources are allocated and the manner by which the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) assesses the Company’s performance. See Part I, Item 1 “Financial Information - Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements,” Note 14, “Reportable Segments” for additional information about our operating segments.

U.S. Markets

opportunities, measure and manage debt portfolio risk, collect debt, verify consumer identities, mitigate fraud risk and respond to data breach events. Consumers use our services to manage their personal finances and take precautions against identity theft.

International

The International segment provides services similar to our U.S. Markets segment to businesses in select regions outside the United States. Depending on the maturity of the credit economy in each country, services may include credit reports, analytics and technology solutions services and other value-added risk management services. We also have insurance, business and automotive databases in select geographies. These services are offered to customers in a number of industries including financial services, retail credit, insurance, automotive, collections, public sector and communications, and are delivered through both direct and indirect channels. The International segment also provides consumer services similar to those offered by our Consumer Interactive vertical within our U.S. Markets segment that help consumers proactively manage their personal finances and take precautions against identity theft.

Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations

The following are certain key factors that affect, or have recently affected, our results of operations:

Macroeconomic and Industry Trends

Our revenues and results of operations have been and can be significantly influenced by general macroeconomic conditions, including but not limited to, interest rates, inflation, housing demand, the availability of credit and capital, employment levels, consumer confidence and the risk of recession.

During the first three months of 2025, the U.S. economy and labor market remained resilient, with continued GDP growth, rising but still low unemployment, growing real wages and the easing of inflation. The U.S. Federal Reserve maintained higher interest rates during the first quarter of 2025, which continues to have the effect of slowing aggregate demand, resulting in slower jobs growth and a mild increase in unemployment levels. Higher interest rates have also slowed demand for consumer loans and auto loans, and have had a more pronounced impact on the housing sector, where higher borrowing rates impact both home affordability, driving down purchase activity, and demand for mortgage loan refinancing. The slowdown in demand and job growth, along with lower inflation, prompted the U.S. Federal Reserve to begin lowering interest rates at the end of the third quarter and into the fourth quarter of 2024, with three consecutive rate cuts totaling 100 basis points. Further rate cuts could spur renewed consumer confidence to borrow as well as increased demand for rate-sensitive lending products, in particular mortgage loans to the extent that mortgage rates decline in tandem with a lower federal funds rate. However, mortgage rates are not directly tied to the federal funds rate but instead are tied to the 10-year Treasury rates, which rose roughly 100 basis points as of the end of 2024 after hitting a one-year low in September 2024 due to renewed market concerns over inflation. As a result, 30-year mortgage rates remained elevated at year-end, which continues to suppress activity in the housing sector.

During the first three months of 2025 and throughout 2024, the U.K. also began to show some initial signs of improvement driven by falling inflation and moderate growth in other economic indicators, though macroeconomic challenges impacting credit markets remain in this region. Foreign central banks, including in Canada and Europe, have also begun to lower rates, which we expect will increase demand for rate-sensitive lending products. These dynamics impact the comparability of our results of operations, including our revenue and expense, between the periods presented below.

In April 2025, the U.S. announced a minimum 10% import duty on all trading partners and higher rates on several large trading partners, the implementation of which was paused for 90 days on rates above 10% for all countries, except China, with exemptions for certain industries and products. These announcements led to increased market volatility and uncertainty. If policies that significantly increase tariff rates are maintained, we expect that U.S. and global economic growth will slow, with increased probability for recession, and inflation will increase across many of the markets where we operate. The final timing and amount of tariff rates remains uncertain and therefore the impact is difficult to forecast, but market uncertainty is already putting pressure on the global macroeconomic environment. The uncertainty of tariff policy, price increases and stock market volatility has, and may continue to negatively impact consumer sentiment, which is likely to impact consumer spending and demand for large-ticket purchases, including homes and autos, which in turn will likely impact consumer demand for credit.

The ongoing uncertainty and the unpredictable nature of the macroeconomic environment could have a material adverse impact on various aspects of our business in the future, including our stock price, results of operations and financial condition, including the carrying value of our long-lived assets such as goodwill and intangible assets.

Table of Contents

Effects of Inflation

We believe that elevated levels of inflation have had, and will continue to have, a negative impact on our business and results of operations, including decreased demand for our services. The U.S. Federal Reserve and several international central banks have begun lowering interest rates in response to significant reductions in inflation levels from peak levels in 2022 and 2023, and have indicated that further interest rate reductions in the future are likely. In the U.S., inflation expectations remain elevated as the labor market remains strong and economic growth resilient, easing pressures on the Federal Reserve to continue lowering rates in 2025, while markets assess the potential implementation and impact of policies of the new administration on inflation. If the tariff rates discussed above are implemented and maintained in their current form, we anticipate increases in inflation in the short term which could further delay the timing of additional rate cuts by the Federal Reserve. Meanwhile, rates that remain elevated relative to historic levels may result in depressed consumer spending on non-essential goods and services, and consequently lower demand for credit, which could have a material adverse impact on various aspects of our business in the future.

Developments that Impact Comparability Between Periods

The following developments impact the comparability of our balance sheets, results of operations and cash flows between periods:

Transformation Plan

On November 12, 2023, our Board approved a transformation plan to optimize our operating model and continue to advance our technology. We expect to recognize one-time pre-tax expenses associated with this transformation plan of $355.0 to $375.0 million from the fourth quarter of 2023 through the end of 2025. All pre-tax expenses will be cash expenditures, other than approximately $15.0 million of non-cash, facility exit costs. In addition, capital expenditures were 8% of revenues in 2024, below our prior expectation of 9%, driven by more efficient spend throughout the year in addition to higher revenues, and we expect capital expenditures to remain at 8% for 2025 due to investment in our technology infrastructure in connection with this transformation plan. Upon completion of this program, we expect to generate annual savings of $120.0 to $140.0 million and reduce our capital expenditures from 8% of revenue to 6%, based on 2023 revenue. During the year ended December 31, 2024, we realized annualized savings of approximately $85.0 million from the transformation plan. The following summarizes initiatives under the transformation plan.

•The operating model optimization program will eliminate certain roles, transition certain job responsibilities to our Global Capability Centers, which we expect will improve productivity, reduce costs and fund growth, optimize business processes, and reduce our facility footprint. We expect to incur total one-time pre-tax expenses of $205.0 to $215.0 million, including employee separation expenses of approximately $110.0 million, facility exit expenses of approximately $45.0 million, and business optimization expenses of approximately $55.0 million.

•The incremental investment to advance our technology is the final phase of our accelerated technology investment. We expect to incur one-time pre-tax expenses of $150.0 to $160.0 million, including approximately $65.0 million in 2024 related to the final year of Project Rise, and approximately $90.0 million of incremental expenses during 2024 and 2025 to streamline our product delivery platforms, and leverage the cloud-based infrastructure being established with Project Rise. The accelerated technology investment will fundamentally transform our technology infrastructure by implementing a global cloud-based approach to streamline product development, increase the efficiency of ongoing operations and maintenance, enable a continuous improvement approach, and provide a single global platform for fulfillment of our product lines. Project Rise was announced in February 2020, expanded in February 2022, and completed in 2024, with a total estimated expense of approximately $240.0 million, including the approximately $65.0 million incurred in 2024, as discussed above.

We have incurred cumulative expenses of $182.2 million through March 31, 2025, comprised of restructuring expenses related to employee separation costs and facility exit charges as well as other business optimization expenses. We have accrued liabilities for the payment of employee separation costs of $11.3 million as of March 31, 2025. We have incurred cumulative costs for the final phase of our accelerated technology investment of $104.3 million through March 31, 2025. The remaining costs associated with the operating model optimization program and the final phase of our accelerated technology investment will be incurred in 2025. See Part I, Item 1, “Financial Information – Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements,” Note 8, “Restructuring” for additional information about our restructuring expenses and “Results of Operations – Non-GAAP Measures” for additional details of the composition of these expenses.

Legal Matters

On February 28, 2025, the CFPB, Trans Union LLC, TransUnion Interactive, Inc. and Mr. Danaher, the former President of Consumer Interactive, filed a joint stipulation with the Court to voluntarily dismiss the lawsuit related to the 2017 Consent Order with prejudice, and the Court dismissed the lawsuit on March 21, 2025. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, we adjusted the $56.0 million previously accrued for this matter to zero, as the loss is no longer probable. See Part I, Item 1, “Financial Information – Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements,” Note 15, “Contingencies” for additional information about this matter.

Share Repurchase Plan

On February 11, 2025, our Board authorized the 2025 Repurchase Plan. Repurchases may be made from time to time at management’s discretion at prices management considers to be attractive through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise, including pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 plan, hybrid open market repurchases or an accelerated share repurchase transaction, subject to availability. Open market purchases are conducted in accordance with the limitations set forth in Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act and other applicable legal requirements. We have no obligation to repurchase additional shares, and the timing, actual number and value of the shares that are repurchased, if any, are at the discretion of management. The 2025 Repurchase Plan does not have an expiration date.

Repurchased shares are retired, resulting in a reduction to common stock at par with the remainder to additional paid-in capital. Once repurchased the shares are returned to the status of authorized but unissued shares of the Company and reduce the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for purposes of calculating basic and diluted earnings per share. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company repurchased approximately 63,000 shares of common stock for a total of $5.4 million, including commissions and excise taxes, under the 2025 Repurchase Plan. The average price paid per share was $84.86. As of March 31, 2025, $494.7 million remains available for repurchases under the 2025 Repurchase Plan.

Debt

We did not make any debt prepayments during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024. In the second, third, and fourth quarters of 2024, we prepaid $80.0 million, $25.0 million, and $45.0 million, respectively, for a total of $150.0 million, of our Senior Secured Term Loan B-5, funded from cash-on-hand. These transactions affect the comparability of interest expense between years, as further discussed in “Results of Operations – Non-Operating Income and (Expense) – Interest Expense” below.

Revenue

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, revenue increased $74.5 million, or 7.3%, compared with the same period in 2024, due to growth in both segments, partially offset by a decrease of 0.8% from the impact of foreign currencies, as further discussed in the Segment Results of Operations section below.

Operating Expenses

Cost of Services

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, cost of services increased $39.4 million compared with the same period in 2024. The increase was primarily due to:

•an increase of approximately $22.0 million in product and fulfillment costs primarily due to an increase in certain product cost pricing in our U.S. Markets segment and an increase in volume in both segments, partially offset by a decrease in variable postage related to breach remediation revenue in 2024 in our U.S Markets segment;

•a net increase of approximately $9.0 million in labor-related costs, primarily due to an increase in annual incentive compensation, employee benefits and stock-based compensation, partially offset by the realization of benefits from our operating model transformation plan; and

•an increase of approximately $7.0 million in technology and communications costs, including costs for our accelerated technology investment.

Selling, General and Administrative

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $48.8 million compared with the same period in 2024. The decrease was primarily due to:

Table of Contents

•a $56.0 million decrease in legal and regulatory expenses in the first quarter of 2025 related to the reduction of an accrued liability for a lawsuit that was dismissed, as further discussed in Part 1 - Notes to Unaudited Financial Statements, Note 15, “Contingencies”; and

•a decrease of approximately $5.0 million in other professional services and marketing and advertising costs.

partially offset by:

•an increase of approximately $5.0 million in technology and communications costs, including our accelerated technology investment;

•a net increase of approximately $5.0 million in labor-related costs, primarily due to an increase in stock-based compensation; and

•an increase of approximately $4.0 million from costs related to our operating model optimization program.

Depreciation and Amortization

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, depreciation and amortization increased $4.9 million compared with the same period in 2024 primarily due to the increase in capital expenditures related to our accelerated technology investment initiative over the past few years.

Restructuring

Restructuring expenses relate to our operating model optimization program. For the three months ended March 31, 2024 these expenses include approximately $16.8 million related to employee separation costs and $1.4 million related to facility exists.

See Part I, Item 1, “Financial Information - Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements,” Note 8, “Restructuring,” for additional information.

Non-Operating Income and Expense

Interest expense

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, interest expense decreased $12.6 million compared with the same period in 2024. This decrease was due to a decrease in outstanding principal balance due to the prepayments made in 2024 and the debt refinancing transactions over the last 12 months and a decrease in the average periodic variable interest rate on the unhedged portion of our debt.

Interest income

The change in interest income for the current period compared to the prior period was primarily due to an increase in our average investment balances and an increase in interest rates.

Other income and (expense), net

Other income and (expense), net includes acquisition fees, loan fees, and various other income and expenses.

Currency remeasurement gains (losses), net consist of realized foreign currency gains and losses for transactions in currencies other than the functional currency of the corresponding consolidated entity that were settled during the period. Miscellaneous non-operating income and (expense) includes other miscellaneous non-operating income and expense.

Provision for Income Taxes

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, we reported an effective tax rate of 15.7%, which was lower than the 21.0% U.S. federal corporate statutory rate primarily due to the impact of benefits on the remeasurement of deferred taxes due to changes in state apportionment rates, benefits from the foreign rate differential, and the research and development credit, partially offset by the impact of increases for foreign withholding taxes, nondeductible expenses primarily in connection with executive compensation limitations and uncertain tax positions.

U.S. Markets Segment

Revenue

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, U.S. Markets revenue increased $68.0 million, or 8.6%, compared with the same period in 2024. The increase was due to an increase in our Financial Services and Emerging verticals, partially offset by a decrease in Consumer Interactive.

Financial Services: For the three months ended March 31, 2025, revenue increased $51.8 million, or 14.7%, compared with the same period in 2024. A majority of the growth in Financial Services comes from our Mortgage line of business, primarily due to increases in price. Our other lines of business also grew, primarily due new business wins, price increases in our Auto line of business, volume increases and higher batch activity in our Consumer Lending and Card & Banking line of business.

Emerging Verticals: For the three months ended March 31, 2025, revenue increased $17.4 million, or 5.8%, compared with the same period in 2024. The increase was primarily due to an increase in the Insurance and most other verticals from price increases, new business wins and an increase in volumes.

Consumer Interactive: For the three months ended March 31, 2025, revenue decreased $1.2 million, or 0.8%, compared with the same period in 2024. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in breach remediation revenue and slowing demand for paid credit products, partially offset by new business wins.

Table of Contents

Adjusted EBITDA

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, Adjusted EBITDA increased $35.0 million compared with the same period in 2024, primarily due to an increase in revenue and a decrease in labor costs from our operating model optimization program, partially offset by higher variable product and fulfillment costs. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, Adjusted EBITDA margins increased 1.2% compared with the same period in 2024, primarily due to high-margin revenue growth and realization of cost savings from the transformation plan.

International Segment

Revenue

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, International revenue increased $5.9 million, or 2.5%, compared with the same period in 2024 primarily due to higher local currency revenue in all regions, driven by increased volumes from improving economic conditions and new product initiatives, partially offset by a decrease of 3.5% from the impact of foreign currencies.

Canada: For the three months ended March 31, 2025, Canada revenue increased $0.2 million, or 0.4%, compared with the same period in 2024, primarily due to higher local currency revenue from broad-based volume increases, new business wins, and increased breach services, partially offset by a decrease of 6.4% from the impact of foreign currencies.

Latin America: For the three months ended March 31, 2025, Latin America revenue decreased $0.2 million, or 0.5%, compared with the same period in 2024, primarily due to a decrease of 7.4% from the impact of foreign currencies, partially offset by higher local currency revenue from broad-based volume increases, new business wins, and higher batch services across several of our markets.

United Kingdom: For the three months ended March 31, 2025, United Kingdom revenue increased $4.7 million, or 8.6%, compared with the same period in 2024, primarily due to volume increases and new business wins, partially offset by a decrease of 0.9% from the impact of foreign currency.

Africa: For the three months ended March 31, 2025, Africa revenue increased $1.8 million, or 11.9%, compared with the same period in 2024, primarily due to meaningful new business wins and contract renewals as well as volume growth in emerging countries and emerging verticals. The impact of foreign currencies result in an increase of 2.4%.

India: For the three months ended March 31, 2025, India revenue decreased $2.4 million, or 3.3%, compared with the same period in 2024, primarily due to a decrease of 4.2% from the impact of foreign currencies, partially offset by higher local currency revenue from higher commercial volumes and new contracts.

Asia Pacific: For the three months ended March 31, 2025, Asia Pacific revenue increased $1.8 million, or 7.0%, compared with the same period in 2024, primarily due to strong growth in the Philippines across key banking clients, partially offset by a decrease of 1.0% from the impact of foreign currencies.

Adjusted EBITDA

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, Adjusted EBITDA increased $2.9 million compared with the same period in 2024 primarily due to increased revenue in regions as discussed above, partially offset by an increase in expenses due to the increase in revenue. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, Adjusted EBITDA margins increased 0.1% primarily due to a shift in the mix of revenues.

Non-GAAP Measures—Three Months Ended March 31, 2025 and 2024

In addition to the financial measures in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) discussed above, management, including our CODM, evaluates the financial performance of our businesses based on the non-GAAP measures Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share, Adjusted Provision for Income Taxes, Adjusted Effective Tax Rate and Leverage Ratio.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We present Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share, Adjusted Provision for Income Taxes, Adjusted Effective Tax Rate and Leverage Ratio for all periods presented. These are important financial measures for the Company but are not financial measures as defined by GAAP. These financial measures should be reviewed in conjunction with the relevant GAAP financial measures and are not presented as alternative measures of GAAP. Other companies in our industry may define or calculate these measures differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures. Because of these limitations, these non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, including operating income, operating margin, effective tax rate, net income attributable to the Company, diluted earnings per share or cash provided by operating activities. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are presented in the tables below.

We present Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA, Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share, Adjusted Provision for Income Taxes and Adjusted Effective Tax Rate as supplemental measures of our operating performance because these measures eliminate the impact of certain items that we do not consider indicative of our cash operations and ongoing operating performance. These are measures frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in their evaluation of the operating performance of companies similar to ours.

Our Board and executive management team use Adjusted EBITDA as an incentive compensation measure for most eligible employees and Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share as an incentive compensation measure for certain of our senior executives.

Under the credit agreement governing our Senior Secured Credit Facility, our ability to engage in activities such as incurring additional indebtedness, making investments and paying dividends is tied to our Leverage Ratio which is partially based on Adjusted EBITDA. Investors also use our Leverage Ratio to assess our ability to service our debt and make other capital allocation decisions.

Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA

Management has excluded the following items from net income attributable to TransUnion in order to calculate Adjusted EBITDA for the periods presented:

•Net interest expense is the sum of interest expense and interest income as reported on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.

•Provision for income taxes, as reported on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.

•Depreciation and amortization, as reported on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.

•Stock-based compensation is used as an incentive to engage and retain our employees. It is predominantly a non-cash expense. We exclude stock-based compensation because it may not correlate to the underlying performance of our business operations during the period since it is measured at the grant date fair value and it is subject to variability as a result of performance conditions and timing of grants. These expenses are reported within cost of services and selling, general and administrative on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.

•Operating model optimization program represents employee separation costs, facility lease exit costs and other business process optimization expenses incurred in connection with the transformation plan discussed further in “Results of Operations – Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations.” We exclude these expenses as we believe they are not directly correlated to the underlying performance of our business. Further, these costs will vary and may not be comparable during the transformation initiative as we progress toward an optimized operating model. These costs are reported primarily in restructuring and selling, general and administrative on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.

•Accelerated technology investment includes Project Rise and the final phase of our technology investment announced in November 2023. Project Rise was announced in February 2020 and was originally expected to be completed in 2022. Following our acquisition of Neustar in December 2021, we recognized the opportunity to take advantage of Neustar’s capabilities to enhance and complement our cloud-based technology already under development as part of Project Rise. As a result, we extended Project Rise’s timeline to 2024 and increased the total estimated cost to

Table of Contents

approximately $240 million. In November 2023, we announced our plans to further leverage Neustar’s technology to standardize and streamline our product delivery platforms and to build a single global platform for fulfillment of our product lines. The additional investment is expected to be approximately $90 million during 2024 and 2025 and represents the final phase of the technology investment in our global technology infrastructure and core customer applications. We expect that the accelerated technology investment will fundamentally transform our technology infrastructure by implementing a global cloud-based approach to streamline product development, increase the efficiency of ongoing operations and maintenance and enable a continuous improvement approach to avoid the need for another major technology overhaul in the foreseeable future. The unique effort to build a secure, reliable and performant hybrid cloud infrastructure requires us to dedicate separate resources in order to develop the new cloud-based infrastructure in parallel with our current on-premise environment by maintaining our existing technology team to ensure no disruptions to our customers. The costs associated with the accelerated technology investment are incremental and redundant costs that will not recur after the program has been completed and are not representative of our underlying operating performance. Therefore, we believe that excluding these costs from our non-GAAP measures provides a better reflection of our ongoing cost structure. These costs are primarily reported in cost of services and therefore do not include amounts that are capitalized as internally developed software.

•Mergers and acquisitions, divestitures and business optimization expenses are non-recurring expenses associated with specific transactions (exploratory or executed) and consist of (i) transaction and integration costs, (ii) post-acquisition adjustments to contingent consideration or to assets and liabilities that occurred after the acquisition measurement period, (iii) fair value and impairment adjustments related to investments and call and put options, (iv) transition services agreement income, and (v) a loss on disposal of a business. We exclude these expenses as we believe they are not directly correlated to the underlying performance of our business operations and vary depending upon the timing of such transactions. These expenses are reported in costs of services, selling, general and administrative and other income and (expenses), net, on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.

•Net other adjustments principally relate to: (i) deferred loan fee expense from debt prepayments and refinancing, (ii) currency remeasurement on foreign operations, (iii) other debt financing expenses consisting primarily of revolving credit facility deferred financing fee amortization and commitment fees and expenses associated with ratings agencies and interest rate hedging, (iv) certain legal and regulatory expenses, net, and (v) other non-operating (income) expense. We exclude these expenses as we believe they are not directly correlated to the underlying performance of our business and create variability between periods based on the nature and timing of the expense or income. These costs are reported in selling, general and administrative and in non-operating income and expense, net as applicable based on their nature on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Table of Contents

Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA Margin

Management defines Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA Margin as Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenue as reported.

Adjusted Net Income

Management has excluded the following items from net income attributable to TransUnion in order to calculate Adjusted Net Income for the periods presented:

•Amortization of certain intangible assets presents non-cash amortization expenses related to assets that arose from our 2012 change in control transaction and business combinations occurring after our 2012 change in control. We exclude these expenses as we believe they are not directly correlated to the underlying performance of our business operations and vary dependent upon the timing of the transactions that give rise to these assets. Amortization of intangible assets is included in depreciation and amortization on our Consolidated Statements of Operations.

•Stock-based compensation (see Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA above)

•Operating model optimization program (see Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA above)

•Accelerated technology investment (see Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA above)

•Mergers and acquisitions, divestiture and business optimization (see Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA above)

•Net other is consistent with the definition in Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA above except that other debt financing expenses and certain other miscellaneous income and expense that are included in the adjustment to calculate Adjusted EBITDA are excluded in the adjustment made to calculate Adjusted Net Income.

•Total adjustments for income taxes relates to the cumulative adjustments discussed below for Adjusted Provision for Income Taxes. This adjustment is made for the reasons indicated in Adjusted Provision for Income Taxes below. Adjustments related to the provision for income taxes are included in the line item by this name on our consolidated statement of operations.

Adjusted Diluted Earnings Per Share

Management defines Adjusted Diluted Earnings per Share as Adjusted Net Income divided by the weighted-average diluted shares outstanding.

Adjusted Provision for Income Taxes

Management has excluded the following items from our provision for income taxes for the periods presented:

•Tax effect of above adjustments represents the income tax effect of the adjustments related to Adjusted Net Income described above. The tax rate applied to each adjustment is based on the nature of each line item. We include the tax effect of the adjustments made to Adjusted Net Income to provide a comprehensive view of our adjusted net income.

•Excess tax expense (benefit) for stock-based compensation is the permanent difference between expenses recognized for book purposes and expenses recognized for tax purposes, in each case related to stock-based compensation expense. We exclude this amount from the Adjusted Provision for Income Taxes in order to be consistent with the exclusion of stock-based compensation from the calculation of Adjusted Net Income.

•Other principally relates to (i) deferred tax adjustments, including rate changes, (ii) infrequent or unusual valuation allowance adjustments, (iii) return to provision, tax authority audit adjustments, and reserves related to prior periods,

Table of Contents

and (iv) other non-recurring items. We exclude these items because they create variability that impacts comparability between periods.

Adjusted Effective Tax Rate

Management defines Adjusted Effective Tax Rate as Adjusted Provision for Income Taxes divided by adjusted income before income taxes. We calculate adjusted income before income taxes by excluding the pre-tax adjustments in the calculation of Adjusted Net Income discussed above and noncontrolling interest related to these pre-tax adjustments from income before income taxes.

Leverage Ratio

Management defines Leverage Ratio as net debt divided by Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA for the most recent twelve-month period including twelve months of Adjusted EBITDA from significant acquisitions. Net debt is defined as total debt less cash and cash equivalents as reported on the balance sheet as of the end of the period.

For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, these non-GAAP measures were as follows:

Adjusted Net Income

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, Adjusted Net Income increased primarily due to an increase in operating income and a decrease in net interest expense, partially offset by an increase in the Adjusted Provision for Income Taxes due to a higher adjusted tax rate as discussed below.

Adjusted Provision for Income Taxes

We reported an adjusted tax rate of 25.8% for the three months ended March 31, 2025, which is higher than the 21.0% U.S. federal corporate statutory rate, primarily due to increases for state taxes, foreign rate differential, and foreign withholding taxes, partially offset by benefits from the research and development credit.

We reported an adjusted tax rate of 22.5% for the three months ended March 31, 2024, which is higher than the 21.0% U.S. federal corporate statutory rate, primarily due to increases for state taxes and foreign withholding taxes, partially offset by benefits from the foreign rate differential and the research and development credit.

Application of Critical Accounting Estimates

We prepare our consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP. The notes to our unaudited consolidated financial statements include disclosures about our significant accounting policies. These accounting policies require us to make certain judgments and estimates in reporting our operating results and our assets and liabilities. See Part II, Item 7, “Application of Critical Accounting Estimates” and Part II, Item 8, Note 1, “Significant Accounting Policies” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 13, 2025, for additional information about our critical accounting estimates.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

Our principal sources of liquidity are cash flows provided by operating activities, cash and cash equivalents on hand, and our Senior Secured Revolving Line of Credit. Our principal uses of liquidity are working capital, capital expenditures, debt service and other capital structure obligations, business acquisitions, dividends, and other general corporate purposes. We believe our cash on hand, cash generated from operations and funds available under the Senior Secured Revolving Line of Credit will be sufficient to fund our planned capital expenditures, debt service and other capital structure obligations, business acquisitions, dividends, and operating needs for at least the next twelve months. Our ability to maintain adequate liquidity for our operations in the future is dependent upon a number of factors, including our revenue, macroeconomic conditions, our ability to contain costs, including capital expenditures, and to collect accounts receivable, and various other factors, many of which are beyond our control. We will continue to monitor our liquidity position and may elect to raise funds through debt or equity financing in the future to fund significant investments or acquisitions that are consistent with our growth strategy.

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $609.9 million and $679.5 million at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, of which $485.6 million and $432.2 million was held outside the United States in each respective period. As of March 31, 2025, we had no outstanding balance under the Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility and $1.2 million of outstanding letters of credit and could have borrowed up to the remaining $598.8 million available.

We also have the ability to request incremental loans on the same terms under the existing Senior Secured Credit Facility up to the greater of an additional $1,000.0 million and 100% of Consolidated EBITDA. In addition, as long as the senior secured net leverage ratio does not exceed 4.25-to-1, we may incur additional incremental loans, subject to certain additional conditions and commitments by existing or new lenders to fund any additional borrowings.

Each year, the Company may be required to make additional principal payments on the Senior Secured Term Loan B based on excess cash flows of the prior year, as defined in the agreement. There were no excess cash flows for 2024 and therefore no

Table of Contents

additional payment will be required in 2025. See Part I, Item 1, “Financial Information - Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements,” Note 10, “Debt” for additional information about our debt.

In the first quarter of 2025, we paid dividends of $0.115 per share totaling $22.6 million. Dividends declared accrue to outstanding restricted stock units and are paid to employees as dividend equivalents when the restricted stock units vest. While we currently expect to continue to pay quarterly dividends, any determination to pay dividends in the future will be at the discretion of our Board and will depend on a number of factors, including our liquidity, results of operations, financial condition, contractual restrictions, restrictions imposed by applicable law and other factors that our Board deems appropriate. We currently have capacity and intend to continue to pay a quarterly dividend, subject to approval by our Board.

On February 11, 2025, our Board authorized the 2025 Repurchase Plan. Repurchases may be made from time to time at management’s discretion, at prices management considers to be attractive, through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, including pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 plan, hybrid open market repurchases or an accelerated share repurchase transaction, subject to availability. Open market purchases are conducted in accordance with the limitations set forth in Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act and other applicable legal requirements.

We have no obligation to repurchase additional shares, and the timing, actual number and value of the shares that are repurchased, if any, are at the discretion of management and depend on a number of factors, including market conditions, the cost of repurchasing shares, the availability of alternative investment opportunities, liquidity, and other factors deemed appropriate. Repurchases may be suspended, terminated or modified at any time for any reason and the 2025 Repurchase Plan does not have an expiration date.

Repurchased shares are retired, resulting in a reduction to common stock at par with the remainder to additional paid-in capital. Once repurchased, the shares are returned to the status of authorized but unissued shares of the Company and reduce the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for purposes of calculating basic and diluted earnings per share. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company repurchased approximately 63,000 shares of common stock for a total of $5.4 million, including commissions and excise taxes, under this program. The average price paid per share was $84.86. As of March 31, 2025, $494.7 million remains available for repurchases under the 2025 Repurchase Plan.

Sources and Uses of Cash


	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2025		2024		Change
Cash provided by operating activities	$	52.5	$	54.0	$	(1.5)
Cash used in investing activities	(86.6)		(62.4)		(24.2)

Effect of exchange rate changes on cash and cash equivalents	5.1		(2.9)		8.0
Net change in cash and cash equivalents	$	(69.6)	$	(42.6)	$	(27.0)

Operating Activities

The decrease in cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to the timing of accounts receivable collections and higher bonus payouts in 2025 compared with 2024, mostly offset by improved operating performance and lower interest expense.

Investing Activities

The increase in cash used in investing activities was primarily due to a current year investment in a note receivable and an increase in capital expenditures.

Financing Activities

Cash used in financing activities was higher primarily due to stock buybacks in 2025.

Table of Contents

Capital Expenditures

We make capital expenditures to grow our business by developing new and enhanced capabilities, to increase the effectiveness and efficiency of the organization and to reduce risks. We make capital expenditures for product development, disaster recovery, security enhancements, regulatory compliance and the replacement and upgrade of existing equipment at the end of its useful life.

Cash paid for capital expenditures increased $6 million, from $62.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, to $68.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Capital expenditures as a percent of revenue represented 6.2% and 6.1% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Debt

Hedges

On March 10, 2020, we entered into interest rate swap agreements with various counterparties that effectively fix our variable interest rate exposure on a portion of our Senior Secured Term Loans or similar replacement debt. The swaps commenced on June 30, 2022, and expire on June 30, 2025, with a current aggregate notional amount of $1,055.0 million that amortizes each quarter. The swaps require us to pay fixed rates varying between 0.8680% and 0.8800% in exchange for receiving a variable rate that matches the variable rate on our loans. We have designated these swap agreements as cash flow hedges.

Effect of Certain Debt Covenants

A breach of any of the covenants under the agreements governing our debt could limit our ability to borrow funds under the Senior Secured Revolving Line of Credit and could result in a default under the Senior Secured Credit Facility. Upon the occurrence of an event of default under the Senior Secured Credit Facility, the lenders could elect to declare all amounts then outstanding to be immediately due and payable, and the lenders could terminate all commitments to extend further credit. If we were unable to repay the amounts declared due, the lenders could proceed against any collateral granted to them to secure that indebtedness.

Our ability to meet our liquidity needs or to pay dividends on our common stock depends on our subsidiaries’ earnings, the terms of their indebtedness, and other contractual restrictions.

For additional information about our debt and hedge, see Part I, Item 1, “Financial Information - Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements,” Note 10, “Debt.”

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There have been no other material changes from the quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

In the normal course of business, we are exposed to market risk, primarily from changes in variable interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates, which could impact our results of operations and financial position. We manage the exposure to this market risk through our regular operating and financing activities. We may use derivative financial instruments, such as foreign currency and interest rate hedges, but only as a risk management tool and not for speculative or trading purposes.

Interest Rate Risk

Our Senior Secured Credit Facility consists of Senior Secured Term Loans and a $600.0 million Senior Secured Revolving Line of Credit. The variable interest rates on these borrowings are based, at our election, on Term SOFR or an alternate base rate, subject to floors, plus applicable margins based on applicable net leverage ratios. As of March 31, 2025, essentially all of our outstanding debt was variable-rate debt. Approximately 71.6% of our variable-rate debt is hedged with interest rate swaps. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, a 10% change in the average Term SOFR rates utilized in the calculation of our actual interest expense would have increased our annual interest expense by approximately $6 million.

Based on the amount of unhedged outstanding variable-rate debt, we have a material exposure to interest rate risk. In the future our exposure to interest rate risk may change due to changes in the amount borrowed, changes in interest rates, or changes in the amount we have hedged. The amount of our outstanding debt, and the ratio of fixed-rate debt to variable-rate debt, can be expected to vary as a result of future business requirements, market conditions or other factors.

See Part I, Item 1, “Financial Information - Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements,” Note 10, “Debt” for additional information about interest rates on our debt.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

A substantial majority of our revenue, expense and capital expenditure activities are transacted in U.S. dollars. However, we transact business in a number of foreign currencies, including British pounds sterling, the South African rand, the Canadian dollar, the Indian rupee, the Colombian peso and the Brazilian real. In reporting the results of our foreign operations, we benefit from a weaker U.S. dollar and are adversely affected by a stronger U.S. dollar relative to the foreign currencies.

We are required to translate the assets and liabilities of our foreign subsidiaries that are measured in foreign currencies at the applicable period-end exchange rate in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. We are required to translate revenue and expenses at the average exchange rates prevailing during the year in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. The resulting translation adjustment is included in other comprehensive income as a component of stockholders’ equity. Transaction gains and losses that arise from exchange rate fluctuations on transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency are included in other income and expense as incurred.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. The term “disclosure controls and procedures” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.

Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2025, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Controls over Financial Reporting

During the quarter covered by this report, there have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

Open market purchases are conducted in accordance with the limitations set forth in Rule 10b-18 of the Exchange Act and other applicable legal requirements. We have no obligation to repurchase additional shares, and the timing, actual number and value of the shares that are repurchased, if any, are at the discretion of management and depend on a number of factors, including market conditions, the cost of repurchasing shares, the availability of alternative investment opportunities, liquidity, and other factors deemed appropriate. Repurchases may be suspended, terminated or modified at any time for any reason and the 2025 Repurchase Plan does not have an expiration date. Any repurchased shares are retired and returned to the status of authorized but unissued shares of the Company. This new share repurchase authorization replaces all previous authorizations.
