Operating Expense Trends
Fidelity National Information Services, Inc. · 2026-08-04 · Importance 40 · Surprise 42 · In source text
Selling, general and administrative expense increased by $112 million in the second quarter of 2026 and by $159 million for the six-month period compared with 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to expenses from the Issuer Solutions Business acquired on January 9, 2026, partially offset by continued cost management. Six-month asset impairment expense increased by $102 million to approximately $104 million, primarily from software impairment charges following a strategic realignment. Corporate and Other Adjusted EBITDA declined by $82 million for the six-month period because of non-strategic business run-off and higher personnel-related expenses.
