&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Organic Q3 ASV of $2,296.9 million, up 4.5% year over year.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Q3 GAAP operating margin of 33.2%, down approximately 350 bps year over year, and adjusted operating margin of 36.8%, down 270 bps year over year.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;◦ Q3 GAAP diluted EPS of $3.87, down 5.4% from the prior year, and adjusted diluted EPS of $4.27, down 2.3% year over year.

NORWALK, Conn., June 23, 2025 - FactSet ("FactSet" or the "Company") (NYSE:FDS) (NASDAQ:FDS), a global financial digital platform and enterprise solutions provider, today announced results for its third quarter fiscal 2025 ended May 31, 2025.

Third Quarter Fiscal 2025 Highlights

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **GAAP revenues** increased 5.9%, or $32.8 million, to $585.5 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2025 compared with $552.7 million in the prior year period. Organic<sup>(1)</sup> revenues grew 4.4% year over year to $577.2 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2025. Growth in GAAP and Organic revenues this quarter was driven by wealth and institutional buy-side clients.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Annual Subscription Value** ("ASV") was $2,335.1 million at May 31, 2025, compared with $2,199.1 million at May 31, 2024. Organic ASV was $2,296.9 million at May 31, 2025, up 4.5% or $98.5 million year over year<sup>(2)</sup>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Organic ASV** increased $22.6 million over the last three months. Please see the "ASV" section of this press release for details.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **GAAP operating margin** decreased to 33.2% compared with 36.6% for the prior year period. Adjusted operating margin decreased to 36.8% compared with 39.4% in the prior year period. GAAP and adjusted operating margin decreased primarily due to the lapping of both a lower bonus accrual and a one-time payroll tax adjustment that occurred in the prior year, as well as higher annual base salaries from inclusion of recent acquisitions, partially offset by growth in revenues. In addition, GAAP operating margin decreased due to higher amortization of intangible assets.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **GAAP diluted earnings per share** ("EPS") decreased 5.4% to $3.87 compared with $4.09 for the same period in fiscal 2024. Adjusted diluted EPS decreased 2.3% to $4.27 compared with $4.37 in the prior year period. The decrease in GAAP diluted EPS and adjusted diluted EPS were mainly driven by higher operating expenses, partially offset by growth in revenues.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Net cash provided by operating activities** was $253.8 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2025, an increase of 6.5% compared with the prior year period. **Free cash flow** increased to $228.6 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2025, compared with $216.9 million for the prior year period, an increase of 5.4%, primarily due to higher operating cash flows.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **GAAP effective tax rate** for the third quarter of fiscal 2025 increased to 17.5% compared with 17.0% for the third quarter of fiscal 2024. The increase was primarily due to certain discrete items, mainly lower excess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation, as well as a higher overall foreign tax rate, partially offset by lower U.S. tax on foreign earnings.

*(1) References to "organic" figures in this press release exclude the current year impact of acquisitions and dispositions completed within the past 12 months and the current year impact from changes in foreign currency.* 

*(2) Beginning in fiscal 2025, FactSet is reporting Organic ASV, rather than Organic ASV plus Professional Services, to focus on the recurring nature of its revenues. This underscores the shift of FactSet's offerings toward providing more managed services and less project-based services.*

News Release I For Immediate Release &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

"We are pleased with our third quarter performance, which reflects the execution of our enterprise solution strategy. With a healthy pipeline and increased momentum, we are well-positioned to finish the fiscal year with strength," said Phil Snow, CEO of FactSet. "As FactSet prepares for its next chapter of leadership, I'm proud of the solid foundation we've established, built on innovation, client trust, and industry-leading data and workflow solutions. This platform gives me great conviction in the Company's continued success."

Operational Highlights – Third Quarter Fiscal 2025

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Client count as of May 31, 2025 was 8,811, a net increase of 166 clients in the past three months, driven by hedge fund, corporate and wealth management clients, and now includes clients from the LiquidityBook acquisition. The count includes clients with ASV of $10,000 and more.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• User count was 220,496 as of May 31, 2025, a net increase of 1,355 users in the past three months, driven by an increase in wealth management users. The user count does not reflect the fiscal 2025 acquisitions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Annual ASV retention was greater than 95% as of May 31, 2025. When expressed as a percentage of clients, annual retention was 91% as of May 31, 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Employee headcount was 12,579 as of May 31, 2025, up 2.6% over the last 12 months, with the increase primarily in the sales and technology groups, mainly from the Irwin and LiquidityBook acquisitions and an increase in employees in our Centers of Excellence.

FactSet data is available on the Databricks Marketplace to help clients accelerate time to value by eliminating manual data integration and enabling seamless and secure access to FactSet's industry-leading proprietary and third-party connected data.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• After the quarter, CUSIP Global Services announced a collaboration with Aumni, Inc., a JPMorgan company, to expand CUSIP coverage for venture-backed and private equity-owned companies.

Forward-looking Statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements based on management's current expectations, estimates, forecasts and projections about future events and circumstances, industries in which FactSet operates and the beliefs and assumptions of management. All statements that address expectations, guidance, outlook or projections about the future, including statements about the Company's strategy for growth, product development, revenues, future financial results, anticipated growth, market position, subscriptions, expected expenditures, trends in FactSet's business and financial results, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements may be identified by words like "may," "might," "will," "should," "expects," "plans," "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "intends," "projects," "indicates," "predicts," "potential," or "continue," and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve a number of risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Many factors, including those discussed more fully elsewhere in this release and in FactSet's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, particularly its latest annual report on Form 10-K and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, as well as others, could cause results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Accordingly, the Company cautions readers not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made. FactSet assumes no duty to and does not undertake to update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances arising after the date on which it is made, except as required by applicable law. Future results could differ materially from historical performance.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company also refers to and presents certain additional non-GAAP financial measures. These measures include: organic revenues, adjusted operating margin, adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, EBITDA, adjusted diluted EPS, and free cash flow. The Company has included reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP at the back of this release.

FactSet uses these non-GAAP financial measures both in presenting its results to stockholders and the investment community and in its internal evaluation and management of the business. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information to investors because they permit investors to view the Company's performance using the same tools that management uses to gauge progress in achieving its goals. Investors may benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing the Company's performance and when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods, and such measures may also facilitate comparisons to historical performance. The Company believes that organic revenues, adjusted operating margin, adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, EBITDA, and adjusted diluted EPS help to fully reflect the underlying economic performance of FactSet. The Company believes that free cash flow is useful to investors because it is an indication of cash flow that may be available to fund investments in future growth initiatives. The presentation of this non-GAAP financial information should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. We are not able to reconcile certain forward-looking non-GAAP measures to reported

measures without unreasonable efforts because it is not possible to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty the actual impact or exact timing of items that may impact comparability.
