 ITEM 1. Business
 The Broadridge Business
 Broadridge, a Delaware corporation, is a global financial technology leader powering investing, corporate governance, and communications. We deliver technology-driven solutions to banks, broker-dealers, asset and wealth managers, public companies, investors, and mutual funds, that enable our clients to operate, innovate and grow. Our trusted expertise and transformative technology solutions help financial services companies enhance investor engagement, optimize trading and investing, and digitize communications.
 We operate our business in two reportable segments: Investor Communication Solutions and Global Technology and Operations.
 Our Regulatory Solutions, Data-Driven Fund Solutions, Corporate Issuer Solutions, and Customer Communications Solutions are provided as part of the Investor Communication Solutions segment. The Investor Communication Solutions segment is the larger of our two business segments and its revenues represented approximately 74% and 75% of our total Revenues in fiscal years 2025 and 2024, respectively, including the foreign exchange impact from revenues generated in currencies other than the United States of America ("U.S.") dollar. See "Analysis of Reportable Segments — Revenues" under "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations." We provide the following services and solutions through our Investor Communication Solutions segment:
 Regulatory Solutions
 We handle the entire proxy materials distribution and voting process for our bank, broker-dealer, corporate issuer and fund clients. We offer electronic and traditional hard copy services for the delivery of proxy materials to investors and collection of consents; maintenance of a rules engine and database that contains the delivery method preferences of our clients' customers; posting of documents on their websites; email notification to investors alerting them that proxy materials are available; and proxy voting via telephone, online, mobile, or paper. We have the ability to combine shareholder communications for multiple stockholders residing at the same address. We also offer proxy vote solicitation services for the registered clients of fund companies, efficiently managing the entire proxy campaign. In addition, we provide a complete outsourced solution for the processing of all international institutional and retail proxies, including shareholder disclosure management.
 A majority of publicly-traded shares are not registered in companies' records in the names of their ultimate beneficial owners. Instead, a substantial majority of all public companies' shares are held in "street name, meaning that they are held of record by broker-dealers or banks through their depositories. Most street name shares are registered in the name "Cede & Co." the name used by The Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation ("DTC"), which holds shares on behalf of its participant broker-dealers and banks. These participant broker-dealers and banks (which are known as "Nominees" because they hold securities in name only) in turn hold the shares on behalf of their customers, the individual beneficial owners. Nominees, upon request, are required to provide companies with the information of beneficial owners who do not object to having their names, addresses, and shareholdings supplied to companies, so called "non-objecting beneficial owners" (or "NOBOs"). Objecting beneficial owners (or "OBOs") may be contacted directly only by the broker-dealer or bank. As DTC's role is only as the custodian, a number of mechanisms have been developed in order to pass the legal rights DTC holds as the record owner (such as the right to vote) to the beneficial owners. The first step in passing voting rights down the chain is the "omnibus proxy," which DTC executes to transfer its voting rights to its participant Nominees. Under applicable rules, Nominees must deliver proxy materials to beneficial owners and request voting instructions.

 Given the large number of Nominees involved in the beneficial proxy process resulting from the large number of beneficial shareholders, we play a unique, central, and integral role in ensuring that the beneficial proxy process occurs without issue for Nominees, companies, funds, and investors. A large number of Nominees have contracted out the processes of distributing proxy materials and tabulating voting instructions to us. Nominees accomplish this by entering into agreements with Broadridge and transferring to us, via powers of attorney, the authority to execute a proxy, which authority the Nominee receives from DTC via an omnibus proxy. Through our agreements with Nominees for the provision of beneficial proxy services, we take on the responsibility of ensuring that the account holders of Nominees receive proxy materials on a timely basis digitally or in print, that their voting instructions are conveyed to the companies and funds conducting solicitations and that these services are fulfilled in accordance with the requirements of their particular solicitation. In order for us to provide the beneficial proxy services effectively, we interface and coordinate directly with each company and/or fund to ensure that the services are performed in an accurate and timely manner. As it would increase the costs for companies and funds to work with the Nominees through which their shares are held beneficially on an individual basis, companies and funds work with us for the performance of the tasks and processes necessary to ensure that proxy materials are distributed on a timely basis to all beneficial owners and that their votes are accurately reported.
 The SEC's rules require public companies to reimburse Nominees for the expense of distributing stockholder communications to beneficial owners of securities held in street name. The reimbursement rates are set forth in the rules of self-regulatory organizations ("SROs"), including the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE"). We bill public companies for the proxy services performed, collect the fees, and remit to the Nominee its portion of the fees. In addition, the NYSE rules establish fees for certain services provided by intermediaries, such as Broadridge, in the proxy process. The preparation and delivery of NOBO information is subject to reimbursement by the corporate issuers requesting the information. The reimbursement rates are based on the number of NOBOs produced pursuant to NYSE or other SRO rules. The rules also determine the fees to be paid to third-party intermediaries, such as Broadridge, who compile the NOBO information on behalf of Nominees who need to respond to corporate issuer requests for NOBO information.
 We provide institutional investors with a suite of services to manage and track the entire proxy voting process, including meeting their reporting needs. ProxyEdge ("ProxyEdge") is our innovative electronic proxy delivery and voting solution for institutional investors and financial advisors that integrates ballots for positions held across multiple custodians and presents them under a single proxy. Voting can be instructed for the entire position, by account vote group, or on an individual account basis either manually or automatically based on the recommendations of participating governance research providers. ProxyEdge also provides for client reporting and regulatory reporting. ProxyEdge can be utilized for meetings of U.S. and Canadian companies and for meetings in many non-North American countries based on the holdings of our global custodian clients. ProxyEdge is offered in several languages and there are currently over 7,000 ProxyEdge users worldwide.
 In addition to our proxy services, we provide regulatory communications solutions that enable global asset managers to communicate with large audiences of investors efficiently and reliably by centralizing all investor communications through one resource. We provide composition, printing, filing, and distribution services for regulatory reports, prospectuses, and proxy materials, as well as mutual fund proxy solicitation services. We manage the entire communications process with both registered and beneficial stockholders and provide a complete platform for creating and distributing regulatory investor communications across multiple channels, including e-delivery, online, mobile, and print. These services include prospectus delivery and an end-to-end solution to fund administrators and asset managers for composing, filing, and distributing tailored annual and semi-annual shareholder reports, known as Tailored Shareholder Reports, that are ADA-compliant and have embedded XBRL.
 Through our Fund Communication Solutions business, we provide fund managers with a single, integrated provider to manage data, perform calculations, compose documents, manage regulatory compliance, and disseminate information across multiple jurisdictions. Our solutions help fund managers increase distribution opportunities, comply with both United Kingdom and European Union regulations such as Solvency II and MiFID II, and make information easily accessible for investors in a digital format. We also provide support to fund managers with document and data dissemination in the UK and European markets, enabling the receipt by distributors and investors of information supporting fund sales.
 Our Pass-Through Voting solution supports fund clients in providing individual investors the ability to participate in the proxy voting process, helping them to expand their investor engagement efforts and receive valuable input for important investment decisions. Our solution for institutional investors helps asset managers split the vote in portfolio companies and pass the ability to vote directly to institutional investors on a proportional basis. For retail investors, our solutions allow funds to poll their investors on voting preferences and provide investors the ability to give voting instructions, set standard voting preferences, or cast a vote at pre-determined meetings.

 In addition to our fund solutions, we also provide a range of other regulatory communications solutions, including reorganization communications notifying investors of U.S. reorganizations or corporate action events, such as tender offers, mergers and acquisitions, bankruptcies, and global class action services for the identification, filing and recovery of class actions and collective redress proceedings involving securities and other financial products.
 We also provide international corporate governance solutions addressing our clients' needs within Europe, the Middle East and Africa ("EMEA") and the Asia-Pacific ("APAC") region. These solutions include institutional and retail global proxy services, and shareholder disclosure management and analytics for both financial intermediaries and corporate issuers. Our international solutions help clients focus on their core businesses while helping them maintain global and local regulatory compliance, reduce costs, improve efficiency and gain data insights.
 Data-Driven Fund Solutions
 We provide a full range of data-driven solutions that help our asset management and retirement service provider clients grow revenue, operate efficiently, and maintain compliance. Our data and analytics solutions provide investment product distribution data, predictive modeling, analytical tools, and insights and research to enable asset managers to optimize product distribution across retail and institutional channels globally. We also provide fiduciary-focused learning and development, software and technology, and data and analytics services to advisors, institutions and asset managers across the retirement and wealth ecosystem.
 Through our Retirement and Workplace Solutions business ("Broadridge Retirement and Workplace"), we provide automated mutual fund and exchange-traded funds trade processing services for financial institutions that submit trades on behalf of their clients, including qualified and non-qualified retirement plans and individual wealth accounts. Our trust, trading and settlement services are integrated into our product suite, strengthening our role as a provider of insight, technology, and business process outsourcing to the asset management, wealth, and retirement industry. In addition, our marketing and transactional communications solutions provide a content management and omni-channel distribution platform for marketing and sales communications for asset managers, insurance providers and retirement service providers.
 Corporate Issuer Solutions
 We provide a range of corporate issuer solutions that revolve around shareholder meetings and proxy, corporate governance and sustainability, regulatory filings and disclosure, and stock transfer services. Our services provide corporate issuers a single source solution that spans the entire shareholder communications and corporate disclosure lifecycle.
 Our shareholder meetings and proxy services and our corporate governance and sustainability services include a full suite of annual meeting and shareholder engagement solutions:
 • Proxy services – we provide complete project management for the entire annual meeting process including registered and beneficial proxy materials distribution, vote processing, and tabulation through our ShareLink solution.

 Our regulatory filings and disclosure solutions provide compliance reporting and transactional reporting services for public companies, including the following:

 • Capital Markets Transactional Services: typesetting, composition, printing, and SEC filing services for capital markets transactions such as initial public offerings, spin-offs, acquisitions, and securities offerings. In addition, we provide transaction support services such as virtual deal rooms and translation services.
 We also provide registrar, stock transfer, and record-keeping services through our transfer agency services. Our transfer agency services address the needs public companies have for more efficient and reliable stockholder record maintenance and communication services. In addition, we provide corporate actions services, including acting as the exchange agent, paying agent, or tender agent in support of acquisitions, initial public offerings, and other significant corporate transactions. We also provide abandoned property compliance and reporting services.
 Customer Communications Solutions
 We support financial services, healthcare, insurance, consumer finance, telecommunications, utilities, and other service industries with omni-channel customer communications management strategies for their transactional communications, including statements and bills, marketing communications, such as personalized microsites and campaigns, and regulatory communications, such as trade confirmations and explanations of benefits.
 These services include digital and physical delivery of critical communications. Our physical delivery services operate through a network of seven highly automated facilities across North America. The Broadridge Communications CloudSM is an omni-channel platform (the "Communications Cloud") that provides our clients the flexibility to implement only the modules and delivery channels needed to address their specific communication needs. The platform's open application programming interfaces and self-servicing tools help our clients improve their communications systems' efficiency and productivity. Through the Communications Cloud, our clients can:
 • develop transactional, regulatory, and marketing communications with relevant, self-service content that drives customer action;
 • deliver customer communications across print, digital, email, short message service ("SMS") and emerging channels, such as interactive microsites, with one connection; and
 • gain comprehensive reporting and analytics to improve communications and increase engagement based on customer behaviors.
 Transactions involving securities and other financial market instruments can, for example, originate with an institutional or retail investor who places an order with a broker who in turn routes that order to an appropriate market for execution. At that point, the parties to the transaction coordinate payment and settlement of the transaction through a clearinghouse. The records of the parties involved must then be updated to reflect completion of the transaction. The transaction must comply with tax, custody, accounting, and record-keeping requirements, and the customer's account information must correctly reflect the transaction. The accurate processing of trading activity from its initial inception and custody activity requires effective automation and information flow across multiple systems and functions within the firm and across the systems of the various parties that participate in the execution of a transaction.
 Our Global Technology and Operations business provides mission-critical, scale infrastructure to the global financial markets. As a leading software as a service ("SaaS") provider, we offer capital markets and wealth and investment management firms modern technology to enable growth, simplify their technology stacks, and mutualize costs.

 Our Strategy
 We earn our clients' confidence every day by delivering real business value through leading technology-driven solutions that help our clients get ahead of today's challenges and capitalize on future growth opportunities. Our solutions harness people, technology, and insights to help transform our clients' businesses by enriching customer engagement, navigating risk, optimizing efficiency, and growing revenue.
 As financial institutions look to transform and mutualize their mission-critical but non-differentiating operational and support functions, we have the proven technology, scale, innovation, experience and, most importantly, the network to achieve this goal and meet their needs. Our strategy addresses critical industry needs by utilizing our leading platform capabilities. Specifically, our growth strategy is focused on three key themes: (i) driving democratization and digitization in governance, (ii) simplifying and innovating trading in capital markets, and (iii) modernizing wealth and investment management.
 Our business model
 We deliver multi-client technology and business process outsourcing services primarily through common SaaS-based operations platforms. We create layers of value for clients by harnessing network benefits, providing deep data and analytics, and offering a comprehensive suite of digital capabilities all on a single platform that enables deeper integration, streamlined onboarding, and better data access. Our SaaS offerings allow our clients to mutualize key functions and thereby reduce their costs. All of this translates into our core value proposition, to be a trusted provider of technology and services across a range of analytical, operational, and reporting functions.
 Strong positions in a large and growing financial services market
 Our technology and associates power the critical infrastructure and services behind investing, investment governance, and investor communications. We make our clients stronger, and through them, we enable better financial lives for investors around the globe. Our deep industry knowledge enables our clients to successfully solve complex technological and operational challenges, while adapting to the latest technology trends, market structure changes, and regulatory standards. While financial services firms have historically kept much of their technology infrastructure work in-house, there are significant trends working in our favor. Specifically, financial services firms globally are spending more on technology, and the budgets allocated for such technology are consistently growing year-over-year. Moreover, these firms are devoting a growing percentage of this spend to third-party technology, operations, and services. As a trusted outside service provider, we can streamline and better integrate our clients' infrastructure and business processes. We expect the efficiencies that result from such undertakings by Broadridge will lead to growth in the market for our solutions.
 Three attractive growth themes
 Our growth themes address mission-critical client needs as described below. Through our integrated solutions and scalable infrastructure, we believe we are best positioned to address them.
 • Governance. We operate an extensive industry network through our governance platform that links broker-dealers, public companies, mutual funds, shareholders, and regulators. Through our platform, we continue to grow our governance solutions by transforming content and delivery and improving e-product capabilities to drive higher investor engagement. We aim to be an integral partner to broker-dealers, asset managers, and retirement service providers by offering data-driven solutions that help them grow revenue, reduce costs, and maintain compliance. We are also helping to simplify the governance process for public companies, offering an expanding suite of capabilities that allows them to better navigate the complexity of reaching shareholders. We continue to be a leading provider of investor communications, and are at the forefront of delivering richer communication experiences, both digitally and through optimized print and mail services.

 • Capital Markets. Global institutions have a strong need to simplify their complex technology environment, and our SaaS-based, global, multi-asset-class technology platforms address this need. As a leader in global trade lifecycle management, we are driving next-generation solutions that simplify our clients' operations, improve performance and resiliency, evolve to global operating models, adapt to new technologies, and enable our clients to better manage their data. Our acquisition of Itiviti Holding AB, now operating as Broadridge Trading and Connectivity Solutions, for example, expanded our services across the trade lifecycle for equities and exchange-traded derivatives and grew our international reach. We continue to leverage emerging technologies such as blockchain and AI to deliver innovative solutions to our clients. Our blockchain-enabled Distributed Ledger Repo ("DLR") platform combines distributed ledger technology with existing market settlement infrastructure to provide clients added flexibility to manage their liquidity needs and execute cross-border intraday repo transactions through our DLR network. In addition, we have introduced a number of AI-driven solutions such as BondGPT and OpsGPT with agentic capabilities while continuing to develop new AI applications to create a more efficient trading process for our clients. We also continue to develop component solutions that meet the regulatory, risk, data, and analytics needs of our clients, while also helping to drive more efficient liquidity, price discovery, and improved execution for the firms we serve. We plan to continue building on our global platform capabilities, enabling our clients to simplify and improve their global operations across cash, equity securities, and other asset classes.
 • Wealth and Investment Management. Wealth and investment management clients, including full-service, regional and independent broker-dealers, investment advisors, insurance companies, and retirement solutions providers are all undergoing unprecedented change. These firms are in need of partners to help them navigate the demographic shift of advisors and investors, create more engaging client experiences, and deliver operational technologies that are essential to their business. These market dynamics are driving the need for more seamlessly integrated technology, as well as data-centric digital wealth and investment management solutions that better service advisors and investors. This can be achieved by simplifying and modernizing their complicated and interwoven legacy systems. To address these demands, we have developed a holistic wealth management platform solution that provides seamless systems and data integration capabilities. Our platform enables firms to improve advisor productivity, provide a more personalized investor experience, and realize operational process efficiencies. Our acquisition of Kyndryl's Securities Industry Services ("SIS") business in 2024 has further bolstered our Wealth offerings in Canada by integrating advanced clearing and settlement, account record-keeping, and tax and regulatory reporting capabilities directly into our platform. Our solutions also reduce complexity and capitalize on emerging technology to simplify operations across the trade lifecycle for hedge fund, private asset, and complex asset managers and their asset servicers.
 Across our growth themes, we continue to expand our global footprint, driving international growth through both strategic investments and organic initiatives. These efforts reinforce our commitment to delivering scalable solutions to a growing and diverse global client base.
 On-ramp for next-generation technologies
 Across financial services, the pace of change is only accelerating. Our clients understand that next-generation technology is a key driving force for change and efficiency and that there is a need among our client base to leverage this technology to address their critical business challenges. However, our clients face obstacles in making the necessary investments and, more importantly, in applying the right talent and intellectual capital, which may be focused on their most differentiating functions. This continues to create a differentiated ability for us to support our clients in the areas where we have scale and domain expertise, which includes areas such as AI, blockchain, cloud, digital, and other new technologies. By leveraging our services, firms can benefit from highly skilled, experienced personnel with deep industry expertise, while mutualizing the costs and risks of technology innovation. We approach innovation through three actions: experimenting, partnering, and engaging. In turn, we help our clients stay on the cutting edge and realize the benefits of digital transformation at a quicker pace.
 High engagement and client-centric culture
 Broadridge is client-centric and has created and grown multi-entity infrastructures across a variety of functions with high client satisfaction. We conduct a client satisfaction survey for each of our major business units annually, the results of which are a component of all our associates' compensation because of the importance of client retention to the achievement of our revenue goals.
 We have built a talent network of engaged and knowledgeable associates dedicated to serving clients well, which in turn creates a real and sustainable advantage for our business. Supporting excellent client delivery takes engaged associates, and we are passionate about creating an environment in which every associate can thrive and build their knowledge and skills. All of this creates a culture that benefits our associates, our clients, and our stockholders.

 Clients
 We serve a large and diverse client base including banks, broker-dealers, mutual funds, retirement service providers, corporate issuers, and wealth and asset management firms. Our clients in the financial services industry include retail and institutional brokerage firms, global banks, mutual funds, asset managers, insurance companies, annuity companies, institutional investors, specialty trading firms, clearing firms, third-party administrators, hedge funds, and financial advisors. Our corporate issuer clients are typically publicly held companies. In addition to financial services firms, we service corporate clients in healthcare, insurance, consumer finance, telecommunications, utilities, and other service industries, supporting their essential communications. We embrace the concept of the Service-Profit Chain, which directly connects employee engagement, client satisfaction, and the creation of shareholder value.
 In fiscal year 2025, we:
 • managed proxy voting for over 900 million equity proxy positions;
 • processed over 7 billion investor and customer communications through print and digital channels;
 • processed on average over $15 trillion in equity and fixed income trades per day;
 • provided fixed income trade processing services to 21 of the 25 primary dealers of fixed income securities in the U.S.; and
 • provided services to the 15 largest U.S. wealth providers.
 Competition
 We operate in a highly competitive industry. Our Investor Communication Solutions business competes with companies that provide investor communication and corporate governance solutions, as well as our clients' in-house operations. This includes independent proxy distribution service providers, transfer agents, proxy advisory firms, proxy solicitation firms, firms that process proxy votes, and financial printers. We also face competition from numerous firms in the compiling, printing and electronic distribution of statements, bills and other customer communications. Within our Global Technology and Operations business, our capital markets solutions compete with in-house operations as well as vendors that provide trade processing, back-office record keeping, and sell-side order and execution management systems. Similarly, our wealth management solutions compete with service providers that deliver data, technology solutions, and marketing services to be used by wealth advisors. Finally, our investment management solutions compete with firms that provide portfolio management, compliance, and operational support solutions for asset managers and hedge funds.
 Technology
 We provide products and platforms to the financial services industry and have several information processing systems that serve as the core foundation of our technology platform. We are committed to maintaining high levels of quality service through our skilled technical employees and the use of our technology within an environment that seeks continual improvement.
 Our technology strategy is designed to provide high levels of availability, scalability, reliability, and flexibility, leveraging a hybrid model consisting of private and public cloud services as well as traditional data center services. Our technology architecture consists of systems and applications which operate in data centers that employ multiple active power and cooling distribution paths and redundant components. Additionally, these data centers provide infrastructure capacity to permit planned activities without disruption to processing the critical load, and, as a general matter, are designed to sustain at least one worst-case, unplanned failure or event without a significant critical load impact. Our geographically dispersed processing centers also provide disaster recovery and business continuity processing capabilities. Our applications that incorporate cloud technology operate on industry standard enterprise architecture platforms providing significant opportunities for horizontal and vertical scaling. This scalability and redundancy enables us to provide high degrees of system availability for our clients.
 Our technology connects industry participants across the financial services ecosystem, forming a network that includes capital markets firms, broker-dealers, asset managers, public companies, and investors. The data derived through these connections provides value to participants and is at the heart of our approach – which leverages this data to generate insights that drive innovation, address industry-wide challenges, accelerate product development, and support decision making.
 We conduct annual reviews with many of our clients of our cybersecurity and data security policies, practices and controls, which, together with our ongoing engagement with regulators across the world, helps us keep pace with cybersecurity and data security standards and support our product development and technology decisions. For more information on our information security program, please refer to "Item 1C. Cybersecurity" of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 We have integrated AI capabilities into several of our solutions and provide our associates with access to internal AI tools aimed at transforming our approach to the product development process and enhancing our overall productivity and efficiency. Our multi-pronged approach to AI looks to launch next-generation capabilities while protecting our clients' and Broadridge's data privacy and intellectual property.
 Product Development
 We manage a diverse portfolio of products and services across our core businesses. Our products and services are designed with resiliency, scalability, and flexibility so that we can fully meet our clients' critical needs. These products and services are built to meet the many complex requirements of our clients in a highly efficient manner.
 Our product organization is committed to helping us grow, scale, and innovate. We do so by providing our product managers with the tools, processes, and capabilities to promptly deliver solutions that address key client needs. This empowers product managers with the insights they need to make data-driven decisions and prioritize resources effectively. We further accelerate innovation by entering into strategic relationships with clients and other third parties to accelerate product development or gain access to capabilities complementary to our product development efforts. To cultivate the talent behind these products, we invest heavily in fostering a thriving community of highly skilled product associates. This commitment is reflected in our leadership development programs and ongoing training opportunities.
 We are also focused on enterprise transformation with a focus on next-generation technologies. Our core strength lies in scalable, reusable platform components that empower developers and accelerate application delivery across the Company. This emphasis on unified product disciplines ensures business units have seamless access to top tier expertise. Furthermore, we leverage AI to unlock new commercial opportunities and enhance overall productivity. To fuel this continuous innovation, we are building a robust foundation with workload-centric hosting optimized for security, scalability, and efficiency. This standardized technology stack, powered by industry-leading enterprise tools, is fundamental to our strategy of delivering best-in-class solutions with improved speed.
 We continually upgrade, enhance, and expand our existing products and services, taking into account input from clients, industry-wide initiatives and regulatory changes affecting our clients. By focusing on these key areas, we aim to meet the evolving needs of our clients through our product and service offerings.
 Intellectual Property
 We own a portfolio of more than 170 U.S. and non-U.S. patents and patent applications. We also own registered marks for our trade name and own or have applied for trademark registrations for many of our services and products. We regard our products and services as proprietary and utilize internal security practices and confidentiality restrictions in contracts with employees, clients, and others for protection. We believe that we are the owner or in some cases, the licensee, of all intellectual property and other proprietary rights necessary to conduct our business.
 Regulation
 The securities and financial services industries are subject to extensive regulation in the U.S. and in other jurisdictions. As a matter of public policy, regulatory bodies in the U.S. and the rest of the world are charged with safeguarding the integrity of the securities and other financial markets and with protecting the interests of investors participating in those markets. Due to the nature of our services and the markets we serve, these regulatory bodies impact our businesses in various manners.
 In the U.S., the securities and financial services industries are subject to regulation under both federal and state laws. At the federal level, the SEC regulates the securities industry, along with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. ("FINRA"), the various stock exchanges, and other SROs. In addition, SEC rules require public companies to reimburse banks and broker-dealers for the expense of distributing certain stockholder communications to beneficial owners of securities held in street name, and those reimbursement rates, as well as fees that can be charged for proxy services are set by the NYSE. The Department of Labor ("DOL") enforces the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA") regulations on plan fiduciaries and organizations that provide services to qualified retirement plans. As a provider of services to financial institutions and issuers of securities, our services, such as our proxy and shareholder report processing and distribution services, are provided in a manner that assist our clients in complying with the laws and regulations to which they are subject. As a result, the services we provide may be required to change as applicable laws and regulations are adopted or revised. We monitor legislative and rulemaking activity by the SEC, FINRA, DOL, and the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS"), the stock exchanges and other regulatory bodies that may impact our services. If new laws or regulations are adopted or changes are made to existing laws or regulations that may impact how we provide services or the requirements driving the use of our services, we expect to adapt our business practices and service offerings to continue to assist our clients in fulfilling their obligations under new or modified requirements.

 Certain aspects of our business are subject to regulatory compliance or oversight. As a provider of technology services to financial institutions, certain aspects of our U.S. operations are subject to regulatory examination by the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council ("FFIEC"), an interagency body of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the National Credit Union Administration, and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Periodic examinations by the FFIEC generally include areas such as internal audit, risk management, business continuity planning, information security, systems development, and third-party vendor management to identify potential risks related to our services that could adversely affect our banking and financial services clients.
 In addition, our business process outsourcing, mutual fund processing, and transfer agency solutions, as well as the entities providing those services, are subject to regulatory oversight. Our business process outsourcing and mutual fund processing services are performed by a broker-dealer, Broadridge Business Process Outsourcing, LLC ("BBPO"). BBPO is registered with the SEC, is a member of FINRA and is required to participate in the Securities Investor Protection Corporation ("SIPC"). Although BBPO's FINRA membership agreement allows it to engage in clearing and the retailing of corporate securities in addition to mutual fund retailing on a wire order basis, BBPO does not clear customer transactions, process any retail business or carry customer accounts. BBPO is subject to regulations concerning many aspects of its business, including trade practices, capital requirements, record retention, money laundering prevention, the protection of customer funds and customer securities, and the supervision of the conduct of directors, officers, and employees. A failure to comply with any of these laws, rules or regulations could result in censure, fine, the issuance of cease-and-desist orders, or the suspension or revocation of SEC or FINRA authorization granted to allow the operation of its business or disqualification of its directors, officers, or employees. There has been continual regulatory scrutiny of the securities industry, including the outsourcing by firms of their operations or business functions. This oversight could result in the future enactment of more restrictive laws or rules with respect to business process outsourcing. As a registered broker-dealer and member of FINRA, BBPO is subject to the Uniform Net Capital Rule 15c3-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which requires BBPO to maintain a minimum net capital amount.
 Matrix Trust Company ("Matrix Trust") is a Colorado state chartered, non-depository trust company and National Securities Clearing Corporation trust member, whose primary business is to provide cash agent, custodial, and directed trustee services to institutional customers, and investment management services to its collective investment trust funds ("CITs"). As a result, Matrix Trust is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the Colorado Division of Banking and the Arizona Department of Insurance and Financial Institutions, as well as the National Securities Clearing Corporation. Specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items, when applicable, must be met. In addition, in connection with the offering of CITs, Matrix Trust acts as a discretionary trustee and an ERISA fiduciary. CITs are subject to regulation by the IRS, SEC, federal and state banking regulators, and the DOL, which impose a number of duties on persons who are fiduciaries under ERISA. Matrix Trust is subject to regulation by the Colorado Division of Banking and the Arizona Department of Insurance and Financial Institutions which regulate CITs pursuant to guidance issued by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. Matrix Trust maintains an Identity Theft Prevention Program as required by the Red Flags Rule under the Fair Credit Reporting Act.
 Our transfer agency business, Broadridge Corporate Issuer Solutions, is subject to certain SEC rules and regulations, including regarding annual reporting, examination, internal controls, proper safeguarding of issuer and shareholder funds and securities, maintaining a written Identity Theft Prevention Program, and other obligations relating to its operations. Our transfer agency business is subject to certain NYSE requirements concerning operational standards as a transfer agent or registrar for NYSE-listed companies and is also subject to IRS regulations regarding tax reporting and withholding. In addition, Broadridge Corporate Issuer Solutions complies with all applicable trade control laws and regulations, including country/territory-based sanctions and list-based sanctions maintained by the U.S. and other jurisdictions where we do business. Finally, state laws govern certain services performed by our transfer agency business.
 Certain of our business units are required to comply with anti-money laundering ("AML") laws and regulations in the U.S., such as the Bank Secrecy Act, as amended by the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001 (collectively, the "BSA"), and the BSA implementing regulations of the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network ("FinCEN"), a bureau of the U.S. Department of the Treasury. A variety of similar AML requirements apply in other countries. These business units are also subject to the relevant aspects of regulations and guidance published by FinCEN (as discussed below), which includes the Know Your Customer ("KYC") requirements promulgated by FinCEN.

 Privacy and Information Security Regulations
 The processing and transfer of personal information is required to provide certain of our services. Privacy laws and regulations in the U.S. and foreign countries apply to the access, collection, transfer, use, storage, and destruction of personal information. In the U.S., our financial institution clients are required to comply with privacy regulations imposed under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act ("GLBA"), in addition to other regulations. As a processor of personal information in our role as a provider of services to financial institutions, we comply with the Federal Trade Commission ("FTC") Safeguards Rule implementing certain provisions of GLBA with respect to maintenance of information security safeguards.
 We perform services for healthcare companies and are, therefore, subject to compliance with laws and regulations regarding healthcare information, including in the U.S., the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 ("HIPAA"). We also perform credit-related services and agree to comply with payment card standards, including the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard. In addition, federal and state privacy and information security laws, and consumer protection laws, which apply to businesses that collect or process personal information, also apply to our businesses.
 Privacy laws and regulations may require notification to affected individuals, federal and state regulators, and consumer reporting agencies in the event of a security breach that results in unauthorized access to, or disclosure of, certain personal information. Privacy laws outside the U.S. may require different compliance requirements than U.S. laws and regulations, and may impose additional duties on us in the performance of our services.
 We are subject to privacy laws and regulations such as the California Privacy Rights Act ("CPRA") and the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR"). The changing nature of privacy laws in the U.S., the European Union and elsewhere could impact our processing of personal information of our employees and on behalf of our clients.
 We continually monitor privacy and information security laws and regulations and, while we believe that we are compliant with our regulatory responsibilities, information security threats continue to evolve, resulting in increased risk and exposure. In addition, legislation, regulation, litigation, court rulings, or other events regarding privacy and information security could expose Broadridge to increased costs, liability, and possible damage to our reputation.
 Legal Compliance
 Regulations issued by the Office of Foreign Assets Control ("OFAC") of the U.S. Department of Treasury place prohibitions and restrictions on all U.S. citizens and entities, including us, with respect to transactions by U.S. persons with specified countries and individuals and entities identified on OFAC's sanctions lists and Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List, which is a published list of individuals and companies owned or controlled by, or acting for or on behalf of, countries subject to certain economic and trade sanctions, as well as terrorists, terrorist organizations and narcotics traffickers identified by OFAC under programs that are not country specific. Similar requirements apply to transactions and dealings with persons and entities specified in lists maintained in other countries. We have developed procedures and controls that are designed to monitor and address legal and regulatory requirements and developments to protect against having direct business dealings with such restricted and prohibited countries, individuals, or entities.
 Compliance with laws and regulations that are applicable to our businesses with an international reach can be complex and may increase our cost of doing business in international jurisdictions. Our international business could expose us to fines and penalties if we fail to comply with these regulations. These laws and regulations include import and export requirements, trade restrictions and embargoes, data privacy requirements, labor laws, tax laws, anti-competition regulations, U.S. laws such as the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, and local laws prohibiting bribery and other improper payments or inducements, such as the U.K. Bribery Act. Although we have implemented policies, procedures, and training designed to ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations, there can be no assurance that our employees, contractors, vendors, and agents will not take actions in violation of our policies or applicable laws and regulations, particularly as we expand our operations, including through acquisitions of businesses that were not previously subject to and may not have familiarity with laws and regulations applicable to us or compliance policies similar to ours. Any violations of sanctions or export control regulations or other laws could subject us to civil or criminal penalties, including the imposition of substantial fines and interest or prohibitions on our ability to offer our products and services to one or more countries, and could also damage our reputation, our international expansion efforts and our business, and negatively impact our operating results.

 Human Capital Management
 As of June 30, 2025, we had approximately 15,000 full-time associates spanning 21 countries. None of our U.S. employees are represented by a labor union. In some countries outside the U.S., we have works councils, or we are required by local law to enter into and/or comply with industry-wide collective bargaining agreements. We believe that our employee relations are good.

 We are driven by the success of each of our associates, and we recognize that it is because of their hard work, talent, and commitment that we can continue to deliver outstanding results for our clients. That is why we strive to provide a workplace that fosters a collaborative and supportive culture where everyone feels welcomed, accepted, and empowered to be their best. At the center of our associate engagement efforts is the concept of the Service-Profit Chain, where engaged associates deliver world-class service, which creates satisfied clients and, in turn, produces strong, long-term value for stockholders.
 Our human capital strategies are developed and managed by our Chief Human Resources Officer, who reports to the Chief Executive Officer, and are overseen by the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") and the Compensation Committee of the Board. Our Board believes that human capital management and succession planning are vital to our success. The Board annually reviews the Company's leadership bench and succession planning. In addition, the Board receives regular updates on talent and other human capital matters. The Compensation Committee's oversight includes initiatives and programs that concern our culture, talent, recruitment, retention, and associate engagement.
 Associate Engagement
 We believe there is a direct connection between associate engagement and the satisfaction of our clients and the creation of stockholder value so we regularly conduct surveys to assess associate engagement and determine if and how perspectives have changed over time. Our surveys allow our associates to share their views on our workplace, the importance of various aspects of work life balance, among other topics. The themes and insights from our associate feedback are shared with our executive leadership and have been instrumental in shaping our workplace. In fiscal year 2025, we received an 81% overall favorable rating in the annual Great Place to Work survey. In addition, 83% of our associates stated that Broadridge is a "great place to work," and we have received certification from Great Place to Work for our outstanding workplace culture in 16 countries: U.S., Canada, India, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Romania, Poland, Singapore, Japan, Germany, Hong Kong, Sweden, Czechia, France, Australia and the Philippines. In addition, we support several Associate Networks, where every associate at Broadridge has the opportunity to find peer support, shape company culture, receive mentorship from senior members, and develop their careers. While our Associate Networks each have a specific focus, membership is open to everyone at Broadridge.
 Talent and Development
 We believe that our associates are among our most valuable assets and fostering their professional development is a core part of our organizational culture. To support this, we provide our associates with an array of online courses and both virtual and on-site training programs, known as Broadridge University. Our initiatives include career advancement programs from leading business schools, leadership development and mentoring opportunities, and a tuition reimbursement plan. We also encourage participation in external learning opportunities and events. These resources are designed to provide opportunities for associates at varying levels to expand their networks, and to gain valuable skills and knowledge to excel in their current roles, and enhance their leadership capabilities. We offer our technology associates with resources to supplement their work experience, including our Technology Expert Career Track, a transparent dual career path that allows associates to grow as leaders and experts within our organization. We also empower associates to learn and grow as subject matter experts in areas related to our business, such as financial markets and AI. Our AI Academy offers voluntary learning paths and courses for our associates to establish a robust foundation in AI. In turn, this enables our associates to assist our clients with their expertise and adds value to our associates' own career development and skill sets. In addition to career-oriented education, we also require all associates to complete a variety of trainings on an annual basis, which focus on our commitment to high ethical standards and a culture of honesty, integrity, and compliance.
 Health, Safety and Wellness
 We are committed to providing a safe workplace. We continuously strive to meet or exceed all laws, regulations, and accepted practices pertaining to workplace safety. We have developed extensive safety policies, standards, and procedures to which all associates are required to comply. Our policies are based on both U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration standards and site-specific guidelines to ensure that associates work in a safe and healthy environment. At our Edgewood, New York facility, we have an on-site Wellness Center staffed with physicians, nurse practitioners and physician assistants who provide medical services at no cost to our associates.
 In addition, we are committed to providing competitive health and wellness benefits to our associates. We recognize the importance of work-life balance and have designed our workplace to provide associates with flexible on- and off-site work options. Our other health and wellness benefits include subsidized emergency backup care services for our U.S.-based associates, various educational health and wellness programs and webinars, and an employee assistance program, which provides free counseling and other mental health services.

 Associate Compensation and Benefits
 We have demonstrated a history of investing in our workforce by offering competitive salaries and wages. We offer various types of compensation, which vary by associate role and country/region, and which may include annual bonuses, stock awards, and retirement savings plans. Also, a portion of every associate's incentive compensation is tied to client satisfaction goals, which reinforces our commitment to the Service-Profit Chain and rewards associates for their contributions to Broadridge's overall client satisfaction performance. In addition we offer the following benefits, which may vary by country/region: healthcare and insurance benefits, tax efficient or savings programs, such as health and dependent care flexible spending accounts, health savings account, pretax commuter benefits or green transport tax savings programs, paid time off, including volunteer time off, paid parental leave, and sick time off, life and disability insurance, business travel accident insurance, charitable gift matching, and tuition assistance, among others.

 ITEM 1A. Risk Factors
 You should carefully consider each of the following risks and all of the other information set forth in this Annual Report on Form 10-K or incorporated by reference herein. Based on the information currently known to us, we believe that the following information identifies the most significant factors affecting our company. However, additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently believe to be immaterial may also adversely affect our business.
 If any of the following risks and uncertainties develop into actual events, they could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or results of operations.
 Our clients are subject to complex laws and regulations, and new laws or regulations and/or changes to existing laws or regulations could impact our clients and, in turn, adversely impact our business or may reduce our profitability.
 We provide technology solutions to financial services firms that are generally subject to extensive regulation globally. As a provider of products and services to financial institutions and issuers of securities, our products and services are provided in a manner designed to assist our clients in complying with the laws and regulations to which they are subject. Changes in laws and regulations could require changes in the services we provide, the manner in which we provide our services, and the fees we charge for our services, or they could result in a reduction or elimination of the demand for our services. Our investor communications services and the fees we charge our clients for certain services are subject to change if applicable SEC or stock exchange rules, regulations or interpretations are amended, or new laws or regulations are adopted, that change the communications our clients are required to send or the manner in which they send them, including a change in default delivery method from paper to digital. Such changes in laws or regulations could result in a material negative impact on our business and financial results. Some of our services, such as our proxy communications, shareholder report and prospectus distribution, and other regulatory or customer communications services, are particularly sensitive to changes in laws and regulations, including those governing the financial services industry and the securities markets.
 In addition, new regulations governing our clients could result in significant expenditures that could cause them to reduce their use of our services, seek to renegotiate existing agreements, cease or curtail their operations, or otherwise alter their business relationship with us, all of which could adversely impact our business. Further, an adverse regulatory action that changes a client's business or adversely affects its financial condition could decrease their ability to purchase, or their demand for our products and services. The loss, or significant reduction, of business from any of our larger clients could have a material adverse effect on our revenues and results of operations.
 Consolidation in the financial services industry could adversely affect our revenues by eliminating some of our existing and potential clients and could make us increasingly dependent on a more limited number of clients.
 There has been and may continue to be consolidation activity in the financial services industry. These mergers or consolidations of financial institutions could reduce the number of our clients and potential clients. For example, in the past few years alone there have been several major consolidations involving our clients. When our clients merge with or are acquired by other firms that are not our clients, or firms that use fewer of our services, they may discontinue or reduce the use of our services. In addition, it is possible that the larger financial institutions resulting from mergers or consolidations could decide to perform in-house some or all of the services that we currently provide or could provide to them. If we are unable to mitigate the impact of a loss or reduction of business resulting from a client consolidation, we could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
 A large percentage of our revenues are derived from a small number of clients in the financial services industry and the loss of any of such clients, a reduction of their demand for our services, or change in the method of delivery of our services could have a material impact on our financial results.
 In fiscal year 2025, our largest client accounted for approximately 7% of our consolidated revenues. While our clients generally work with multiple business segments, the loss of business from any of our larger clients due to merger or consolidation, financial difficulties or bankruptcy, or the termination or non-renewal of contracts could have a material adverse effect on our revenues and results of operations. Also, a delay in onboarding a client onto our technology would result in a delay in our recognition of revenue from that client. Further, in the event of the loss of a client's business, a reduction of a client's demand for our services, or a change in the method of delivery of our services, then in addition to losing the revenue from that client, we could be required to write-off all or a portion of the related client investments or accelerate the amortization of certain costs, including costs incurred to onboard a client or convert a client's systems to function with our technology. Such costs for all clients represented approximately 10% of our total assets as of June 30, 2025, with one client representing a large portion of this amount. See Note 3, "Revenue Recognition" and Note 11, "Deferred Client Conversion and Start-up Costs" to our consolidated financial statements for more information.

 Security breaches or cybersecurity incidents could adversely affect our financial results and ability to operate, could result in personal, confidential or proprietary information being misappropriated, and may cause us to be held liable or suffer harm to our reputation.
 We process and transfer sensitive data, including personal information, valuable intellectual property and other proprietary or confidential data provided to us by our clients, which include financial institutions, public companies, mutual funds, and healthcare companies. We also handle personal information of our employees in connection with their employment. Some of our services are provided through the internet, which increases our exposure to potential cybersecurity incidents. Information security threats continue to evolve resulting in increased risk and exposure and increased costs to protect against the threat of information security breaches or to respond to or alleviate problems caused by such breaches.
 Due to the nature of our products and services, we are subject to the risk of information security incidents, including those impacting our clients and third-party vendors. Some of our clients and third-party vendors have experienced cybersecurity incidents. Failure by our clients or third-party vendors to notify us in a timely manner of cybersecurity incidents impacting their operations could result in unauthorized access to our systems and data and materially affect our business, operations and financial results. In certain circumstances, our third-party vendors may also have access to sensitive data including personal information. It is also possible that a third-party vendor could intentionally or inadvertently disclose such sensitive data. Further, unauthorized individuals could improperly access our systems or those of our vendors, or improperly obtain or disclose the sensitive data including personal information that we or our vendors process or handle.
 We face ongoing cybersecurity threats to our information technology infrastructure including data loss, data exfiltration, denial of service, and ransomware, among others. We have experienced non-material cybersecurity incidents, attempts to breach our systems and other similar attacks, including incidents affecting our clients and third-party vendors, which if such attacks or attempts are successful in the future could cause harm to our business and our reputation and challenge our ability to provide reliable services, as well as negatively impact our results of operations and financial condition. Any impact on our results of operations and financial condition may be material depending on the scope of the incident. Examples of previous incidents include, but are not limited to, social engineering, phishing, and denial-of-service attacks. In addition, our insurance coverage may not be adequate to cover all the costs related to cybersecurity incidents or disruptions resulting from such events.
 If we fail to maintain an adequate information security program or implement sufficient security standards, technology or controls to protect against information security incidents or privacy breaches or fail to identify and adapt to emerging security threats and risks, it could cause us to lose revenues, lose clients and/or damage to our reputation.
 In addition, any unauthorized access to our information technology systems could result in the use, theft, or disclosure of confidential, sensitive, or personal data, destruction or modification of records, interruptions to our operations and delivery of our services and products, installation of malware, and the potential need to pay ransom. As a result, we may incur significant costs to investigate and remediate such incidents, and to protect against future threats to our information security and information technology systems. In addition, such incidents could give rise to legal actions from our clients and/or their customers and regulatory investigations and/or significant penalties and fines.
 Our business and results of operations may be adversely affected if we do not comply with legal and regulatory requirements that apply to our services or businesses, and new laws or regulations and/or changes to existing laws or regulations to which we are subject may adversely affect our ability to conduct our business or may reduce our profitability.
 The legislative and regulatory environment of the financial services industry is continuously changing. The SEC, FINRA, DOL, various stock exchanges and other U.S. and foreign governmental or regulatory authorities continuously review legislative and regulatory initiatives and may adopt new or revised laws and regulations or provide revised interpretations or they may change their priorities, including those related to enforcement, with respect to existing laws and regulations. These legislative and regulatory initiatives impact the way in which we conduct our business, requiring changes to the way we provide our services or additional investment which may make our business less profitable. Further, as a provider of technology services to financial institutions, certain aspects of our U.S. operations are subject to regulatory examination by the FFIEC. A sufficiently unfavorable review from the FFIEC could have a material adverse effect on our business. With an increased focus on cybersecurity and vendor risk management, the FFIEC and other regulatory agencies provide guidelines for overseeing technology service providers, increasing the contractual requirements with our clients and the cost of providing our services.
 Our business process outsourcing, mutual fund processing and transfer agency solutions as well as the entities providing those services are subject to regulatory oversight. Our provision of these services must comply with applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, FINRA, DOL, various stock exchanges and other regulatory bodies charged with safeguarding the integrity of the securities markets and other financial markets and protecting the interests of investors participating in these markets. If we fail to comply with any applicable regulations in performing these services, we could be subject to suits for breach of contract or to governmental proceedings, censures and fines. In addition, we could lose clients and our reputation could be harmed, negatively impacting our ability to attract new clients.

 As a provider of data and business processing solutions, our systems contain a significant amount of sensitive data, including personal information, related to our clients, customers of our clients, our employees, among others. We are, therefore, subject to compliance obligations under federal, state and foreign privacy and information security laws, including in the U.S., the GLBA, HIPAA, and the CPRA, and the GDPR in the European Union, and we are subject to compliance with various client industry standards such as PCI DSS as well as Medicare and Medicaid programs related to our clients. We are subject to penalties for failure to comply with such regulations and requirements, and such penalties could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. There has been increased public attention regarding the use of personal information, accompanied by legislation and regulations intended to strengthen data protection, information security and consumer and personal privacy. The law in these areas continues to develop, the number of jurisdictions adopting such laws continues to increase and these laws may be inconsistent from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Furthermore, the changing nature of privacy laws in the U.S., the European Union and elsewhere could impact our processing of personal information.
 Further, there is increased focus, including by governments, regulators, our investors, employees, clients and other stakeholders, on sustainability matters, which has resulted in new or additional legal and regulatory requirements and may require increased compliance and operational costs. These stakeholders may have differing expectations or requirements regarding sustainability, and applicable regulations in various jurisdictions may be inconsistent or conflict with one another, presenting additional challenges to compliance. If we fail to comply with applicable regulations and maintain practices that meet our stakeholders' evolving, and potentially divergent, expectations, it could harm our reputation, adversely affect our ability to attract and retain employees or clients and expose us to increased scrutiny from investors and regulatory authorities.
 Our ability to comply with applicable laws and regulations depends largely upon the maintenance of an effective compliance system which can be time consuming and costly, as well as our ability to attract and retain qualified compliance personnel. Any failure by our employees to comply with our policies and any laws and regulations applicable to our business, even if inadvertent, could have a negative impact on our business.
 Our revenues may decrease due to declines in the levels of participation and activity in the securities markets.
 We generate significant revenues from the transaction processing fees we earn from our services. These revenue sources are substantially dependent on the levels of participation and activity in the securities markets. The number of unique securities positions held by investors through our clients and our clients' customer trading volumes reflect the levels of participation and activity in the markets, which are impacted by market prices, and the liquidity of the securities markets, among other factors. Volatility in the securities markets and sudden sharp or gradual but sustained declines in market participation and activity can result in reduced investor communications activity, including reduced proxy and event-driven communications processing such as mutual fund proxy, mergers and acquisitions and other special corporate event communications processing, and reduced trading volumes. In addition, our event-driven fee revenues are based on the number of special corporate events and transactions we process. Event-driven activity is impacted by financial market conditions and changes in regulatory compliance requirements, resulting in fluctuations in the timing and levels of event-driven fee revenues. As such, the timing and level of event-driven activity and its potential impact on our revenues and earnings are difficult to forecast. The occurrence of any of these events would likely result in reduced revenues and decreased profitability from our business operations.
 We may be adversely impacted by a failure of third-party service providers to perform their functions.
 We rely on relationships with third parties, including our service providers and other vendors for certain functions. If we are unable to effectively manage our third-party relationships and the agreements under which our third-party vendors operate, our financial results or reputation could suffer. We rely on these third parties, including for the provision of certain data center and cloud services, to provide services in a timely and accurate manner and to adequately address their own risks, including those related to cybersecurity and physical security. Failure by these third parties to adequately perform their services as expected could result in material interruptions in our operations and negatively impact our services resulting in a material adverse effect on our business and financial results.
 Certain of our businesses rely on a single or a limited number of service providers or vendors. Changes in the business condition (financial or otherwise) of these service providers or vendors could impact their provision of services to us or they may no longer be able to provide services to us at all, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial results. In such circumstances, we cannot be certain that we will be able to replace our key third-party vendors in a timely manner or on terms commercially reasonable to us given, among other reasons, the scope of responsibilities undertaken by some of our service providers, the depth of their experience and their familiarity with our operations generally.

 If we change a significant vendor, an existing service provider makes significant changes to the way it conducts its operations, or is acquired, or we seek to bring in-house certain services performed today by third parties, we may experience unexpected disruptions in the provision of our solutions and increased expenses, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, profitability, and financial results. Furthermore, certain third-party service providers or vendors may have access to or process sensitive data such as personal information, valuable intellectual property and other proprietary or confidential data, which may include data provided to us by our clients. It is possible that a third-party vendor could intentionally or inadvertently disclose sensitive data including personal information, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial results and damage our reputation.
 We rely on the United States Postal Service ("USPS") and other third-party carriers to deliver communications and changes in our relationships with these carriers or an increase in postal rates or shipping costs may adversely impact demand for our products and services and could have an adverse impact on our business and results of operations.
 We rely upon the USPS and third-party carriers, including the United Parcel Service, for timely delivery of communications on behalf of our clients. As a result, we are subject to carrier disruptions due to factors that are beyond our control, including employee strikes, inclement weather, and increased fuel costs. Any failure to deliver communications to or on behalf of our clients in a timely and accurate manner may damage our reputation and brand and could cause us to lose clients. In addition, the USPS has incurred significant financial losses in recent years and may, as a result, implement significant changes to the breadth or frequency of its mail delivery, causing disruptions in the service. If our relationship with any of these third-party carriers is terminated or impaired, or if any of these third parties are unable to distribute communications, we would be required to use alternative, and possibly more expensive, carriers to complete our distributions on behalf of our clients. We may be unable to engage alternative carriers on a timely basis or on acceptable terms, if at all, which could have an adverse effect on our business. In addition, future increases in postal rates or shipping costs, as well as changes in customer preferences, may result in decreased demand for our traditional printed and mailed communications resulting in an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 In the event of a disaster, our disaster recovery and business continuity plans may fail, which could result in the loss of client data and adversely interrupt operations.
 Our operations are dependent on our ability to protect our infrastructure against damage from catastrophe, natural disaster, or severe weather, as well as events resulting from unauthorized security breach, power loss, telecommunications failure, terrorist attack, pandemic, or other events that could have a significant disruptive effect on our operations. We have disaster recovery and business continuity plans in place in the event of system failure due to any of these events and we test our plans regularly. In addition, our data center services provider also has disaster recovery plans and procedures in place. However, we cannot be certain that our plans, or those of our data center services provider, will be successful in the event of a disaster. If our disaster recovery or business continuity plans are unsuccessful in a disaster recovery scenario, we could potentially lose client data or experience material adverse interruptions to our operations or delivery of services to our clients, and we could be liable to parties who are financially harmed by those failures. In addition, such failures could cause us to lose revenues, lose clients or damage our reputation.
 Any slowdown or failure of our computer or communications systems could impact our ability to provide services to our clients and support our internal operations and could subject us to liability for losses suffered by our clients or their customers.
 Our services depend on our ability to store, retrieve, process, and manage significant databases, and to receive and process transactions and investor communications through a variety of electronic systems. Our systems, those of our data center and cloud services providers, or any other systems with which our systems interact could slow down significantly or fail for a variety of reasons, including:
 • malware or undetected errors in internal software programs or computer systems;
 • direct or indirect hacking or denial of service cybersecurity attacks;
 • inability to rapidly monitor all system activity;
 • inability to effectively resolve any errors in internal software programs or computer systems once they are detected;
 • failure to maintain adequate operational systems and infrastructure or comply with internal policies and procedures;
 • heavy stress placed on systems during peak times or due to high volumes or volatility; or
 • power or telecommunications failure, fire, flood, pandemic or any other natural disaster or catastrophe.

 While we monitor system loads and performance and implement system upgrades to handle predicted increases in trading volume and volatility, we may not be able to predict future volume increases or volatility accurately or that our systems and those of our data center services and cloud services providers will be able to accommodate these volume increases or volatility without failure or degradation. In addition, we may not be able to prevent cybersecurity attacks on our systems.
 Moreover, because we have outsourced our data center operations and use third-party cloud services providers for storage of certain data, the operation, performance and security functions of the data center and the cloud system involve factors beyond our control, and we cannot guarantee that our third-party providers will be able to provide their services at a satisfactory level. Any significant degradation or failure of our or our third-party providers' computer systems, communications systems or any other systems in the performance of our services could cause our clients or their customers to suffer delays in their receipt of our services. These delays could cause substantial losses for our clients or their customers, and we could be liable to parties who are financially harmed by those failures. In addition, such failures could cause us to lose revenues, lose clients or damage our reputation.
 The inability to properly perform our services or operational errors in the performance of our services could lead to liability for claims, client loss and result in reputational damage.
 Our clients operate in highly regulated industries and rely on our services to meet some of their regulatory requirements and the demands of their customers. The inability or the failure to properly perform our services could result in our clients and/or certain of our subsidiaries that operate regulated businesses being subjected to losses including censures, fines, or other sanctions by applicable regulatory authorities, and we could be liable to parties who are financially harmed by those errors. In addition, the inability to properly perform our services or errors in the performance of our services could result in a decline in confidence in our products and services, legal action, and cause us to incur expenses including service penalties, lose revenues, lose clients or damage our reputation.
 Our use and incorporation of a broad range of artificial intelligence technologies in our products, services, and operations present risks, uncertainties, and challenges that could adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
 Our ability to attract and retain clients depends on our capacity to develop and support innovative products and services, including through developing or deploying emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence. Some of our products, services and processes leverage AI, including both machine learning and Generative AI, and we continue to make investments in initiatives focused on the further development and deployment of these technologies. However, there is no assurance that our use or development of AI will enhance our products or services or their marketability, improve operating results, or deliver anticipated benefits, and our product development initiatives involving AI may be unsuccessful. While implementation of these technologies offers the potential for innovation and competitive differentiation, it also poses significant risks and uncertainties, especially given its early stage of commercial adoption. The use of AI in our product initiatives and offerings or services, or in our internal business operations, may give rise to risks related to accuracy, bias, discrimination, intellectual property infringement, misappropriation or leakage of proprietary, confidential and personal information, defamation, data privacy, and cybersecurity. Any error, defect, or vulnerability in our AI-powered products or business processes could undermine the quality of our products and services, adversely impact our clients' businesses, subject us or our clients to regulatory scrutiny, fines or litigation and cause reputational harm. We are exposed to similar risks in connection with the use of AI technology by our third-party vendors and clients.
 These technologies are subject to an evolving and fragmented legal and regulatory landscape. The absence of a unified regulatory framework, and the risk of divergent or conflicting regulations across jurisdictions applicable to our business, could increase the complexity and costs of compliance for us and our clients. New or changing legal requirements may limit or restrict our use of AI, impose burdensome obligations, or require us to modify or discontinue certain offerings. Any of these factors, alone or in combination, could adversely affect our business, reputation, or results of operations.

 Global economic and political conditions, including global health crises and geopolitical instability, broad trends in business and finance that are beyond our control have had and may have a material impact on our business operations and those of our clients and contribute to reduced levels of activity in the securities markets, which could adversely impact our business and results of operations.
 As a multinational company, our operations and our ability to deliver our services to our clients could be adversely impacted by general global economic and political conditions. Our business is highly dependent on the global financial services industry and exchanges and market centers around the world. Also, in recent years, we have expanded our operations, entered strategic alliances, and acquired businesses outside the U.S. Compliance with foreign and U.S. laws and regulations that are applicable to our international operations could cause us to incur higher than anticipated costs, and inadequate enforcement of laws or policies such as those protecting intellectual property, could affect our business and the Company's overall results of operations.
 These factors may include:
 • economic, political and market conditions;
 • legislative and regulatory changes; including executive orders and similar directives
 • social and health conditions, including widespread outbreak of an illness or pandemic such as the Covid-19 pandemic;
 • acts of war or terrorism and international conflict, such as the ongoing conflicts in the Middle East, Russia and Ukraine;
 • natural or man-made disasters or other catastrophes;
 • extreme or unusual weather patterns caused by climate change;
 • the availability of short-term and long-term funding and capital;
 • the level and volatility of interest rates;
 • currency values and inflation;
 • trade policies, disputes, barriers and other restrictions
 • financial well-being of our clients; and
 • taxation levels affecting securities transactions.
 These factors are beyond our control and may negatively impact our ability to perform our services or the demand for our services or may increase our costs resulting in an adverse impact on our business and results of operations. For example, our services are impacted by the number of unique securities positions held by investors through our clients, the level of investor communications activity we process on behalf of our clients, trading volumes, market prices, and liquidity of the securities markets, which are in turn affected by general national and international economic and political conditions, and broad trends in business and finance that could result in changes in participation and activity in the securities markets. Accordingly, any significant reduction in participation and activity in the securities markets would likely adversely impact our business and results of operations.
 If we are unable to respond to the demands of our existing and new clients, or adapt to technological changes or advances, our business and future growth could be impacted.
 The global financial services industry is characterized by increasingly complex and integrated infrastructures and products, new and changing business models and rapid technological and regulatory changes. Our clients' needs and demands for our products and services evolve with these changes. Our future success will depend, in part, on our ability to respond to our clients' demands for new services, capabilities and technologies on a timely and cost-effective basis. We also need to adapt to technological advancements such as AI, machine learning, quantum computing, digital and distributed ledger and cloud computing and keep pace with changing regulatory standards to address our clients' increasingly sophisticated requirements. Transitioning to these new technologies may require close coordination with our clients, be disruptive to our resources and the services we provide and may increase our reliance on third-party service providers such as our cloud services provider.
 In addition, we run the risk of disintermediation due to emerging technologies, fintech start-ups and new market entrants. If we fail to adapt or keep pace with new technologies in a timely manner, it could harm our ability to compete, decrease the value of our products and services to our clients, and harm our business and impact our future growth.

 If the operational systems and infrastructure that we depend on fail to keep pace with our growth, we may experience operating inefficiencies, client dissatisfaction and lost revenue opportunities.
 The growth of our business and expansion of our client base may place a strain on our management and operations. We believe that our current and anticipated future growth will require the implementation of new and enhanced communications and information systems, the training of personnel to operate these systems, and the expansion and upgrade of core technologies. While many of our systems are designed to accommodate additional growth without redesign or replacement, we may nevertheless need to make significant investments in additional hardware and software to accommodate growth, which may impact our profitability and business operations. In addition, we may not be able to predict the timing or rate of this growth accurately or expand and upgrade our systems and infrastructure on a timely basis.
 Our growth has required and will continue to require increased investments in management personnel and systems, financial systems and controls, and office facilities. We cannot assure you that we will be able to manage or continue to manage our future growth successfully. If we fail to manage our growth, we may experience operating inefficiencies, dissatisfaction among our client base, and lost revenue opportunities.
 Intense competition could negatively affect our ability to maintain or increase our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
 The markets for our products and services continue to evolve and are highly competitive. We compete with a number of firms that provide similar products and services. In addition, our securities processing solutions compete with our clients' in-house capabilities to perform comparable functions. Our competitors may be able to respond more quickly to new or changing opportunities, technologies, and client requirements and may be able to undertake more extensive promotional activities, offer more attractive terms to clients and adopt more aggressive pricing policies than we will be able to offer or adopt. In addition, we expect that the markets in which we compete will continue to attract new competitors and new technologies. There can be no assurances that we will be able to compete effectively with current or future competitors. If we fail to compete effectively, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be materially harmed.
 We may be unable to attract and retain key personnel.
 Our continued success depends on our ability to attract and retain key personnel such as our senior management and other qualified personnel including highly skilled technical employees to conduct our business. Skilled and experienced personnel in the areas where we compete are in high demand, and competition for their talents is intense. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in our efforts to recruit and retain the required key personnel. If we are unable to attract and retain qualified individuals or our recruiting and retention costs increase significantly, our operations and financial results could be materially adversely affected.
 The inability to identify, obtain, retain, enforce and protect important intellectual property rights could harm our business.
 Third parties may infringe or misappropriate our intellectual property, which includes a combination of patents, trademarks, service marks, copyrights, domain names and trade secrets. Our inability to protect our intellectual property and marks could adversely affect our business. In an effort to protect our intellectual property, we enter into confidentiality and invention assignment agreements with our employees, consultants and other third parties, and control access to our services, software and proprietary information. Moreover, we license or acquire technology that we incorporate into our services and products. Additional actions may be required to protect our intellectual property, including legal action, which could be time consuming and expensive and may negatively impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
 Despite our efforts to identify, obtain, retain, enforce and protect our intellectual property rights and proprietary information, we cannot be certain that they will be effective or sufficient to prevent the unauthorized access, use, copying, theft or the reverse engineering of our intellectual property and proprietary information for a variety of reasons, including: (a) our inability to detect misappropriation by third parties of our intellectual property; (b) disparate legal protections for intellectual property across different countries; (c) constantly evolving intellectual property legal standards as to the scope of protection, validity, non-infringement, enforceability and infringement defenses; (d) failure to maintain appropriate contractual restrictions and other measures to protect our know- how and trade secrets, or contract breaches by others; (e) failure to identify and obtain patents on patentable innovations; (f) potential invalidation, unenforceability, scope narrowing, dilution and opposition, through litigation and administrative processes both in the U.S. and abroad, of our intellectual property rights; and (g) other business or resource limitations on intellectual property enforcement against third parties.

 Our products and services, and the products and services provided to us by third parties, may infringe upon intellectual property rights of third parties, and any infringement claims, whether initiated by or against us, could require us to incur substantial costs, distract our management, or prevent us from conducting our business.
 Costly, complex, time-consuming and unpredictable litigation may be necessary to enforce our intellectual property rights, or challenge the purported validity or scope of third-party intellectual property. Further, although we attempt to avoid infringing upon known proprietary rights of third parties, we are subject to the risk of claims alleging infringement of third-party proprietary rights. All intellectual property litigations, even baseless claims, result in significant expense and diversion of resources, our management and time. Any adverse outcome in an intellectual property litigation could prevent us from selling our products or services or require us to license the technology of others on unfavorable terms, which may materially and adversely affect our brand, business, operations and financial condition. Additionally, third parties that provide us with products or services that are integral to the conduct of our business may also be subject to similar infringement allegations from others, which could prevent such third parties from continuing to provide these products or services to us. As a result, we may need to undertake work-arounds or substantial reengineering of our products or services in order to continue offering them, and we may not succeed in doing so. Furthermore, a party asserting such an infringement claim could secure a judgment against us that requires us to pay substantial damages, grant such party injunctive relief, or grant other court ordered remedies that could prevent us from conducting our business.
 We use third-party open source software in our products and services. There is a risk that we incorporate into our products and services open source software with onerous licensing terms that purportedly require us to make the source code of our proprietary code, combined with such open source software, available under such license. Furthermore, U.S. courts have not interpreted the terms of various open source licenses, but could interpret them in a manner that imposes unanticipated conditions or restrictions on our products and services. Usage of open source software can lead to greater risks than use of third-party commercial software, given that licensors generally disclaim all warranties on their open source software, and hackers frequently exploit vulnerabilities in open source software. Any use of open source software inconsistent with its license or our policy could harm our business, operations and financial position.
 Acquisitions and integrating such acquisitions create certain risks and may affect operating results.
 As part of our overall business strategy, we may make acquisitions and strategic investments in companies, technologies or products, or enter joint ventures. In fact, over the last three fiscal years we have completed three acquisitions and made strategic investments in seven firms. These transactions and the integration of acquisitions involve a number of risks. The core risks are in the areas of:
 • valuation: finding suitable businesses to acquire at affordable valuations; competition for acquisitions from other potential acquirors, negotiating a fair price for the business based on inherently limited due diligence reviews; and structuring transactions on acceptable terms;
 • integration: managing the complex process of integrating the acquired company's people, products, technology, and other assets, and converting their financial, information security, privacy and other systems and controls to meet our standards, so as to achieve intended strategic objectives and realize the projected value, synergies and other benefits in connection with the acquisition; The process of integrating these businesses may be difficult and expensive, disrupt our business and divert our resources. These risks may arise for a number of reasons including, for example:
 • incurring unforeseen obligations or liabilities in connection with such acquisitions;
 • devoting unanticipated financial and management resources to an acquired business;
 • borrowing money from lenders or selling equity or debt securities to the public to finance future acquisitions on terms that may be adverse to us;
 • additional debt incurred to finance an acquisition could impact our liquidity and may cause a credit downgrade;
 • loss of clients of the acquired business;
 • entering markets where we have minimal prior experience;
 • experiencing decreases in earnings as a result of non-cash impairment charges;
 • geographically separated organizations, systems, and facilities;
 • integrating personnel with diverse business backgrounds and organizational cultures;
 • complying with regulatory requirements;
 • enforcing intellectual property rights; and
 • general economic and political conditions.

 • legacy issues: protecting against actions, claims, regulatory investigations, losses, and other liabilities related to the predecessor business.
 Any of these factors, alone or in combination, may result in unanticipated obligations, disputes, exposure to litigation and regulatory action and adversely affect our business, reputation, or results of operations.
 Our existing and future debt levels, and compliance with our debt service obligations, could have a negative impact on our financing options and liquidity position, which could adversely affect our business.
 As of June 30, 2025, we had $3,252.3 million in aggregate carrying amount of total debt. Additionally, our revolving credit facility has a remaining borrowing capacity of $1,366.5 million as of June 30, 2025. Our overall leverage and the terms of our financing arrangements could:
 • limit our ability to obtain additional financing in the future for working capital, capital expenditures or acquisitions, to fund growth or for general corporate purposes, even when necessary to maintain adequate liquidity;
 • make it more difficult for us to satisfy the terms of our debt obligations;
 • limit our ability to refinance our indebtedness on terms acceptable to us, or at all;
 • limit our flexibility to plan for and to adjust to changing business and market conditions and implement business strategies;
 • require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to make interest and principal payments on our debt, thereby limiting the availability of our cash flow to fund future investments, capital expenditures, working capital, business activities and other general corporate requirements; and
 • increase our vulnerability to adverse economic or industry conditions.
 Our liquidity position may be negatively affected by changes in general economic conditions, regulatory requirements and access to the capital markets, which may be limited if we were to fail to renew any of the credit facilities on their renewal dates or if we were to fail to meet certain ratios. Our ability to meet expenses and debt service obligations will depend on our future performance, which could be affected by financial, business, economic and other factors. If we are not able to pay our debt service obligations or comply with the financial or other restrictive covenants contained in the indenture governing our senior notes, or our credit facility, we may be required to immediately repay or refinance all or part of our debt, sell assets, borrow additional funds or raise additional equity capital, which could also result in a credit rating downgrade. In addition, if the credit ratings of our outstanding indebtedness are downgraded, or if rating agencies indicate that a downgrade may occur, our business, financial position, and results of operations could be adversely affected, and perceptions of our financial strength could be damaged. A downgrade would also have the effect of increasing our borrowing costs and could decrease the availability of funds we are able to borrow, adversely affecting our business, financial position, and results of operations. Further, a downgrade could adversely affect our relationships with our clients.
 We may incur non-cash impairment charges in the future associated with our portfolio of intangible assets, including goodwill.
 As a result of past acquisitions, we carry a significant goodwill and other acquired intangible assets on our balance sheet. In addition, we also defer certain costs to onboard a client or convert a client's systems to function with our technology. Goodwill, intangible assets, net, and deferred client conversion and start-up costs accounted for approximately 67% of the total assets on our balance sheet as of June 30, 2025. We test goodwill for impairment annually as of March 31st and we test goodwill, intangible assets, net, and deferred client conversion and start-up costs for impairment at other times if events have occurred or circumstances exist that indicate the carrying value of such assets may no longer be recoverable. It is possible we may incur impairment charges in the future, particularly in the event of a prolonged economic recession or loss of a key client or clients. A significant non-cash impairment could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
 Certain of our services may be exposed to risk from our counterparties and third parties.
 Our mutual fund and exchange-traded fund processing services and our transfer agency services involve the settlement of transactions on behalf of our clients and third parties. With these activities, we may be exposed to risk in the event our clients, or broker-dealers, banks, clearing organizations, or depositories are unable to fulfill contractual obligations. Failure to settle a transaction may affect our ability to conduct these services or may reduce their profitability as a result of the reputational risk associated with failure to settle.

 ITEM 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments
 None.

 ITEM 1C. Cybersecurity
 Our information security program is designed to meet the needs of our clients who entrust us with their sensitive information. We maintain International Organization for Standardization 27001 certification for our enterprise-wide information security management system and program. Where applicable, we align to other industry standards or frameworks, including the Cloud Security Alliance's Cloud Controls Matrix, the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, and the CSF HiTRUST Common Security Framework.
 Cybersecurity Risk Management and Strategy
 We recognize the importance of identifying, assessing, and managing material risks associated with cybersecurity threats. Our cybersecurity risk management program is integrated into our overall enterprise risk management ("ERM") process which provides an ongoing procedure, effected at all levels of the Company and across business units and corporate functions, to identify and assess risk, monitor risk, and take appropriate mitigating action. Central to our risk management process is the Risk Committee, a management committee that oversees the identification and assessment of the key risks affecting our operations and reviews the controls established with respect to these risks. The Risk Committee is comprised of key members of management, including the President, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Legal Officer, Chief Information Security Officer, Chief Technology Officer, Chief Compliance Officer, and other senior executives of the Company. Our Risk Committee collaborates with subject matter experts, as needed, to gather insights for identifying and assessing material cybersecurity risks, their severity, and potential mitigations.
 We take the following actions, among others, to demonstrate our commitment to maintaining the highest levels of information security, provide for the availability of critical data and systems, maintain regulatory compliance, manage our material risks from cybersecurity threats, and to identify, protect against, detect, respond to, and recover from cybersecurity incidents:
 • leverage encryption, data masking technology, data loss prevention technology, authentication technology, entitlement management, access control, network and application segmentation, anti-malware software, and transmission of data over private networks, among other systems and procedures, designed to protect against unauthorized access to information;
 • conduct annual reviews with many of our clients on our cybersecurity and data security policies, practices and controls, and engage with regulators across the world, to remain apprised of cybersecurity and data security standards and best practices;
 • utilize the National Institute of Standards and Technology Framework for Improving Critical Infrastructure Cybersecurity (the "NIST Framework") issued by the U.S. government as a guideline to manage our cybersecurity-related risk. The NIST Framework outlines security controls and outcomes over five functions: identify, protect, detect, respond, and recover;
 • conduct network and endpoint monitoring, vulnerability assessments, and network penetration testing;
 • conduct quarterly information security management and incident training, and regular phishing email simulations for all associates to enhance awareness and responsiveness to possible threats;
 • run tabletop exercises to simulate a response to a cybersecurity incident and use the findings to improve our policies and procedures;
 • conduct information security reviews and due diligence on key service providers to identify, assess, mitigate, and monitor risks associated with our use of third-party software and services; and
 • maintain global information security policies and procedures, including an incident response and crisis management plan that include processes to triage, assess, investigate, escalate, contain, and remediate cybersecurity incidents.
 We further describe whether and how risks from identified cybersecurity threats, including as a result of any previous cybersecurity incidents, have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect us, including our business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition, under the heading "Security breaches or cybersecurity incidents could adversely affect our financial results and our ability to operate, could result in personal, confidential or proprietary information being misappropriated, and may cause us to be held liable or suffer harm to our reputation," included as part of our risk factor disclosures at Item 1A. of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, which disclosures are incorporated by reference herein.

 Cybersecurity Governance
 Our information security program and team are currently managed by our Chief Information Security Officer ("CISO") who reports to our Chief Technology Officer. Our CISO has more than 25 years of experience in managing and leading cybersecurity functions including cybersecurity operations, strategy and governance, and information technology and security risk, compliance, and audit responsibilities across the U.S., Latin America, United Kingdom, Eastern Europe, Singapore, and China. Our CISO is responsible for developing, implementing, and overseeing our overall information security program, including cybersecurity risk management, governance and compliance, security policies and training, and the overall protection and defense of our networks, systems, and confidential data. With respect to risk management, our CISO works closely with our Managing Director, Risk Management, and other members of our Risk Committee, who are responsible for reviewing and challenging, as necessary, the activities of our information security team.
 The responsibilities of the Company's Board include oversight of our risk management processes. The Board has two primary methods of oversight. The first method is the ERM process through which the Board receives regular reports from management regarding the most significant risks facing the Company. The second is through the functioning of the Board's committees. The Audit Committee assists the Board in its oversight of the Company's information security program, including cybersecurity and data privacy risks and controls. Our CISO provides reports on the Company's cybersec urity program to the Audit Committee, which includes all members of the Board, on a quarterly basis. In addition, our Internal Audit function regularly audits our technology and cybersecurity programs and reports to the Audit Committee on its findings.

 ITEM 2. Properties
 We operate our business primarily from 43 facilities. We lease 10 production-related facilities in Edgewood, New York; El Dorado Hills, California; South Windsor, Connecticut; Kansas City, Missouri; Dallas, Texas; Coppell, Texas; and Markham, Canada, with a combined space of 2.3 million square feet which are used in connection with our Investor Communication Solutions business. We also lease one facility in Newark, New Jersey, which houses our principal Global Technology and Operations business operations. We lease space at 32 additional locations, subject to customary lease arrangements and which expire on a staggered basis. We believe our facilities are currently adequate for their intended purposes and are adequately maintained.

 ITEM 3. Legal Proceedings
 Currently, there are not any material pending legal proceedings, other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to the business, to which the Company is a party or of which any of the Company's property is the subject. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to claims and litigation. While the outcome of any claim or litigation is inherently unpredictable, the Company believes that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not, individually or in the aggregate, result in a material impact on its financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. For information concerning the Company's legal proceedings, reference is made to Note 19, "Contractual Commitments, Contingencies and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements" to our Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 8. of Part II of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 ITEM 4. Mine Safety Disclosures
 Not applicable.

 PART II.

 ITEM 5. Market for Registrant's Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities
 Our common stock began trading "regular way" on the NYSE under the symbol "BR" on April 2, 2007. There were 8,111 stockholders of record of the Company's common stock as of August 1, 2025. This figure excludes the beneficial holders whose shares may be held of record by brokerage firms and clearing agencies.
 Dividend Policy
 We expect to pay cash dividends on our common stock. On August 4, 2025, our Board approved an increase in our quarterly cash dividend by $0.095 per share to $0.975 per share, an increase in our expected annual dividend amount from $3.52 to $3.90 per share. The declaration and payment of future dividends to holders of our common stock will be at the discretion of our Board, and will depend upon many factors, including our financial condition, earnings, capital requirements of our businesses, legal requirements, regulatory constraints, industry practice, and other factors that the Board deems relevant.
 As a holding company, substantially all our assets are comprised of the capital stock of our subsidiaries; therefore, our ability to pay dividends will be dependent on our receiving dividends from our operating subsidiaries. Our subsidiaries through which we provide our business process outsourcing and mutual fund processing services, are regulated and may be subject to restrictions on their ability to pay dividends to us. We do not believe that these restrictions are significant enough to impact the Company's ability to pay dividends.
 Performance Graph
 The following graph compares the cumulative total return on Broadridge common stock from June 30, 2020 to June 30, 2025, with the comparable cumulative return of the: (i) S&P 500 Index, and (ii) S&P 500 Industrials Index.

 The discussion summarizing the significant factors affecting the results of operations and financial condition of Broadridge during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024 can be found in Part II, "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year 2024 (the "2024 Annual Report"), which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 6, 2024.

 DESCRIPTION OF THE COMPANY AND BUSINESS SEGMENTS
 Broadridge, a Delaware corporation, is a global financial technology leader providing investor communications and technology-driven solutions to banks, broker-dealers, asset and wealth managers, public companies, investors, and mutual funds. Our services include investor communications, securities processing, data and analytics, and customer communications solutions. With over 60 years of experience, including over 15 years as an independent public company, we provide integrated solutions and an important infrastructure that powers the financial services industry. Our solutions enable better financial lives by powering investing, governance and communications and help reduce the need for our clients to make significant capital investments in operations infrastructure, thereby allowing them to increase their focus on core business activities. Our businesses operate in two reportable segments: Investor Communication Solutions ("ICS") and Global Technology and Operations ("GTO").

 ACQUISITIONS
 We frequently review our businesses to ensure we have the necessary assets to execute our strategy. We expect to acquire businesses when we identify a compelling strategic need, such as a product, service or technology that helps meet client demand, a way to achieve business scale that enables competition and operational efficiency, or similar considerations. The results of operations for acquired businesses are included in our consolidated results from the respective dates of acquisition.
 Acquisitions of Businesses
 In November 2024, the Company acquired SIS to provide wealth management, capital markets, and information technology solutions in Canada. SIS is included in the Company's GTO reportable segment. Our discussions with the Canadian Competition Bureau are ongoing. In July 2024, the Company acquired CompSci, a provider of cloud-based financial technology software for the preparation and processing of SEC filings for public companies and funds. CompSci is included in the Company's ICS reportable segment. We acquired these businesses for an aggregate purchase price of $193.5 million.
 Announced Acquisition
 In July 2025, Broadridge announced the proposed acquisition of Acolin Group Holdco Limited ("Acolin"). Acolin is a European provider of cross-border fund distribution and regulatory services. The total purchase price is approximately $70 million plus an additional contingent consideration liability. The acquisition is expected to close in the first half of Broadridge's 2026 fiscal year, subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals. Acolin will be included in the Company's ICS reportable segment.
 Please refer to Note 6, "Acquisitions" to our Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 8. of Part II of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for a more detailed discussion.

 BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 The Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and in accordance with the SEC requirements for Annual Reports on Form 10-K. These financial statements present the consolidated position of the Company and include the entities in which the Company directly or indirectly has a controlling financial interest as well as various entities in which the Company has investments recorded under the equity method of accounting as well as certain marketable and non-marketable securities. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Amounts presented may not sum due to rounding. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation where applicable.
 In presenting the Consolidated Financial Statements, management makes estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and related disclosures. Management continually evaluates the accounting policies and estimates used to prepare the Consolidated Financial Statements. The estimates, by their nature, are based on judgment, available information, and historical experience and are believed to be reasonable. However, actual amounts and results could differ from those estimates made by management. In management's opinion, the Consolidated Financial Statements contain all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of results reported. The results of operations reported for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for subsequent periods.
 Seasonality
 Processing and distributing proxy materials and annual reports to investors comprises a large portion of our Investor Communication Solutions business. We process and distribute the greatest number of proxy materials and annual reports during our third and fourth fiscal quarters. The recurring periodic activity of this business is linked to significant filing deadlines imposed by law on public reporting companies. This has caused our revenues, operating income, net earnings, and cash flows from operating activities to be higher in our third and fourth fiscal quarters. The seasonality of our revenues makes it difficult to estimate future operating results based on the results of any specific fiscal quarter and could affect an investor's ability to compare our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows on a fiscal quarter-by-quarter basis.

 CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
 We continually evaluate the accounting policies and estimates used to prepare the Consolidated Financial Statements. The estimates, by their nature, are based on judgment, available information, and historical experience and are believed to be reasonable. However, actual amounts and results could differ from these estimates made by management. Certain accounting policies that require significant management estimates and are deemed critical to our results of operations or financial position are discussed below.
 Goodwill. We review the carrying value of all our Goodwill by comparing the carrying value of our reporting units to their fair values. We are required to perform this comparison at least annually or more frequently if circumstances indicate a possible impairment. When determining fair value of a reporting unit, we utilize the income approach which considers a discounted future cash flow analysis using various assumptions, including projections of revenues based on assumed long-term growth rates, estimated costs and appropriate discount rates based on the particular reporting unit's weighted-average cost of capital. The principal factors used in the discounted cash flow analysis requiring judgment are the projected future operating cash flows based on forecasted earnings before interest and taxes, and the selection of the terminal value growth rate and discount rate assumptions. The weighted-average cost of capital takes into account the relative weight of each component of our consolidated capital structure (equity and long-term debt). Our estimates of long-term growth and costs are based on historical data, various internal estimates and a variety of external sources, and are developed as part of our routine, long-range planning process. Changes in economic and operating conditions impacting these assumptions could result in goodwill impairments in future periods. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss shall be recognized in an amount equal to that excess, not to exceed the total amount of Goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. We had $3,609.6 million of Goodwill as of June 30, 2025. Given the significance of our Goodwill, an adverse change to the fair value of one of our reporting units could result in an impairment charge, which could be material to our earnings.
 The Company performs a sensitivity analysis under the goodwill impairment test assuming hypothetical reductions in the fair values of our reporting units. A 10% change in our estimates of projected future operating cash flows, discount rates, or terminal value growth rates used in our calculations of the fair values of the reporting units would not result in an impairment of our Goodwill.

 Income Taxes. The objectives of accounting for income taxes are to recognize the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current year and deferred tax liabilities and assets for the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in an entity's financial statements or tax returns. Judgment is required in addressing the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our Consolidated Financial Statements or tax returns (e.g., realization of deferred tax assets, changes in tax laws or interpretations thereof). The Company is subject to regular examination of its income tax returns by the U.S. federal, state and foreign tax authorities. A change in the assessment of the outcomes of such matters could materially impact our Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company has estimated foreign net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $48.7 million as of June 30, 2025 of which $6.9 million are subject to expiration in the June 30, 2035 through June 30, 2043 period, and of which $41.7 million has an indefinite utilization period. In addition, the Company has estimated U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $25.0 million of which $9.3 million are subject to expiration in the June 30, 2026 through June 30, 2037 period with the balance of $15.7 million having an indefinite utilization period. U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards resulting from tax losses beginning with the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019 have an indefinite carryforward under the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the "Tax Act"). The Company did not generate federal net operating losses for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025.
 Valuation allowances are recognized to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that the Company will not be able to utilize the deferred tax assets of certain subsidiaries to offset future taxable earnings. The Company has recorded valuation allowances of $11.2 million and $10.8 million at June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The determination as to whether a deferred tax asset will be recognized is made on a jurisdictional basis and is based on the evaluation of historical taxable income or loss, projected future taxable income, carryforward periods, scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities and tax planning strategies. Projected future taxable income is based on expected results and assumptions as to the jurisdiction in which the income will be earned. The assumptions used to project future taxable income requires significant judgment and are consistent with the plans and estimates used to manage the underlying businesses.
 Share-based Payments. Accounting for stock-based compensation requires the measurement of stock-based compensation expense based on the fair value of the award on the date of grant. We determine the fair value of stock options issued by using a binomial option-pricing model. The binomial option-pricing model considers a range of assumptions related to volatility, dividend yield, risk-free interest rate and employee exercise behavior. Expected volatilities utilized in the binomial option-pricing model are based on a combination of implied market volatilities, historical volatility of our stock price and other factors. Similarly, the dividend yield is based on historical experience and expected future changes. The risk-free rate is derived from the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The binomial option-pricing model also incorporates exercise and forfeiture assumptions based on an analysis of historical data. The expected life of the stock option grants is derived from the output of the binomial model and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. Determining these assumptions are subjective and complex, and therefore, a change in the assumptions utilized could impact the calculation of the fair value of our stock options. A hypothetical change of five percentage points applied to the volatility assumption used to determine the fair value of the fiscal year 2025 stock option grants would result in an approximate $2.8 million change in total pre-tax stock-based compensation expense for the fiscal year 2025 grants, which would be amortized over the vesting period. A hypothetical change of one year in the expected life assumption used to determine the fair value of the fiscal year 2025 stock option grants would result in an approximate $1.9 million change in the total pre-tax stock-based compensation expense for the fiscal year 2025 grants, which would be amortized over the vesting period. A hypothetical change of one percentage point in the forfeiture rate assumption used for the fiscal year 2025 stock option grants would result in an approximate $0.2 million change in the total pre-tax stock-based compensation expense for the fiscal year 2025 grants, which would be amortized over the vesting period. A hypothetical one-half percentage point change in the dividend yield assumption used to determine the fair value of the fiscal year 2025 stock option grants would result in an approximate $1.4 million change in the total pre-tax stock-based compensation expense for the fiscal year 2025 grants, which would be amortized over the vesting period.

 KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS
 Management focuses on a variety of key indicators to plan, measure and evaluate the Company's business and financial performance. These performance indicators include Revenue and Recurring revenue as well as not generally accepted accounting principles measures ("Non-GAAP") of Adjusted Operating income, Adjusted Net earnings, Adjusted earnings per share, Free Cash flow, Recurring revenue growth constant currency, and Closed sales. In addition, management focuses on select operating metrics specific to Broadridge of Position Growth and Internal Trade Growth, as defined below.
 Refer to the section "Explanation and Reconciliation of the Company's Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for a reconciliation of Adjusted Operating income, Adjusted Net earnings, Adjusted earnings per share, Free Cash flow, and Recurring revenue growth constant currency to the most directly comparable GAAP measures, and an explanation for why these Non-GAAP metrics provide useful information to investors and how management uses these Non-GAAP metrics for operational and financial decision-making. Refer to the section "Results of Operations" for a description of Closed sales and an explanation of why Closed sales is a useful performance metric for management and investors.
 Revenues are primarily generated from fees for processing and distributing investor communications and fees for technology-enabled services and solutions. The Company monitors revenue in each of our two reportable segments as a key measure of success in addressing our clients' needs. Revenues from fees are derived from both recurring and event-driven activity. The level of recurring and event-driven activity the Company processes directly impacts distribution revenues. While event-driven activity is highly repeatable, it may not recur on an annual basis. Event-driven revenues are based on the number of special events and corporate transactions the Company processes. Event-driven activity is impacted by financial market conditions and changes in regulatory compliance requirements, resulting in fluctuations in the timing and levels of event-driven revenues. Distribution revenues primarily include revenues related to the physical mailing of proxy materials, interim communications, transaction reporting, customer communications and fulfillment services as well as Broadridge Retirement and Workplace administrative services.
 Recurring revenue growth represents the Company's total annual revenue growth, less growth from event-driven and distribution revenues. We distinguish recurring revenue growth between organic and acquired:
 • Organic – We define organic revenue as the recurring revenue generated from Net New Business and Internal Growth.
 • Acquired – We define acquired revenue as the recurring revenue generated from acquired services in the first twelve months following the date of acquisition. This type of growth comes as a result of our strategy to purchase, integrate, and leverage the value of assets we acquire.
 Revenues and Recurring revenue are useful metrics for investors in understanding how management measures and evaluates the Company's ongoing operational performance. See "Results of Operations" as well as Note 2, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" and Note 3, "Revenue Recognition" to our Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 8. of Part II of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
 Position Growth and Internal Trade Growth
 The Company uses select operating metrics specific to Broadridge of Position Growth and Internal Trade Growth in evaluating its business results and identifying trends affecting its business. Position Growth is comprised of "equity position growth" and "mutual fund/ETF position growth." Equity position growth measures the estimated annual change in positions eligible for equity proxy materials. Beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2025, the Company began presenting information on "equity revenue position growth." Equity revenue position growth excludes small or fractional equity positions for which the Company does not recognize revenue ("non-revenue positions"). Prior period comparative information for this metric is not available. Mutual fund/ETF position growth measures the estimated change in mutual fund and exchange traded fund positions eligible for interim communications. These metrics are calculated from equity proxy and mutual fund/ETF position data reported to Broadridge for the same issuers or funds in both the current and prior year periods.
 Internal Trade Growth represents the estimated change in daily average trade volumes for Broadridge securities processing clients whose contracts are linked to trade volumes and who were on Broadridge's trading platforms in both the current and prior year periods. Position Growth and Internal Trade Growth are useful non-financial metrics for investors in understanding how management measures and evaluates Broadridge's ongoing operational performance within its Investor Communication Solutions and Global Technology and Operations reportable segments, respectively.

 The key performance indicators for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2025, and 2024, are as follows:

 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 The following discussions of Analysis of Consolidated Statements of Earnings and Analysis of Reportable Segments refer to the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025 compared to the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024. The Analysis of Consolidated Statements of Earnings should be read in conjunction with the Analysis of Reportable Segments, which provides a more detailed discussion concerning certain components of the Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Discussions of Analysis of Consolidated Statements of Earnings and Analysis of Reportable Segments for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024 compared to the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023 is disclosed in Part II, "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" of the 2024 Annual Report.
 The following references are utilized in the discussions of Analysis of Consolidated Statements of Earnings and Analysis of Reportable Segments:
 "Amortization of Acquired Intangibles and Purchased Intellectual Property" and "Acquisition and Integration Costs" represent certain non-cash amortization expenses associated with acquired intangible assets and purchased intellectual property assets, as well as certain transaction and integration costs associated with the Company's acquisition activities, respectively.
 "Restructuring and Other Related Costs" represent costs associated with the Company's Corporate Restructuring Initiative to exit and/or realign some of our businesses, streamline the Company's management structure, reallocate work to lower cost locations, and reduce headcount in deprioritized areas, in addition to other restructuring activities.
 "Litigation Settlement Charges" represents reserves established during the third and fourth quarter of 2024 related to the settlement of claims.
 "Net New Business" refers to recurring revenue from Closed sales for the initial twelve-month contract period after which the client goes live with the Company's service(s), less recurring revenue from client losses.
 "Internal Growth" is a component of recurring revenue and generally reflects year over year changes in existing services to our existing customers' multi-year contracts beyond the initial twelve-month period in which it was included in Net New Business.
 "Recurring revenue growth constant currency" refers to our Recurring revenue growth presented on a constant currency basis to exclude the impact of foreign currency exchange fluctuations.
 The following definitions describe the Company's Revenues:
 Revenues in the Investor Communication Solutions segment are derived from both recurring and event-driven activity, in addition to distribution revenues. The level of recurring and event-driven activity we process directly impacts revenues. While event-driven activity is highly repeatable, it may not recur on an annual basis. The types of services we provide that comprise event-driven activity are:
 • Mutual Fund Proxy: The proxy and related services we provide to mutual funds when certain events occur requiring a shareholder vote including changes in directors, sub-advisors, fee structures, investment restrictions, and mergers of funds.

 • Mutual Fund Communications: Mutual fund communications services consist primarily of the distribution on behalf of mutual funds of supplemental information required to be provided to the annual mutual fund prospectus as a result of certain triggering events such as a change in portfolio managers. In addition, mutual fund communications consist of notices and marketing materials such as newsletters.
 • Equity Proxy Contests and Specials, Corporate Actions, and Other: The proxy services we provide in connection with shareholder meetings driven by special events such as proxy contests, mergers and acquisitions, and tender/exchange offers.
 Event-driven revenues are based on the number of special events and corporate transactions we process. Event-driven activity is impacted by financial market conditions and changes in regulatory compliance requirements, resulting in fluctuations in the timing and levels of event-driven revenues. As such, the timing and level of event-driven activity and its potential impact on revenues and earnings are difficult to forecast.
 Generally, mutual fund proxy activity has been subject to a greater level of volatility than the other components of event-driven activity. During fiscal year 2025, mutual fund proxy revenues were 75% higher than the prior fiscal year. During fiscal year 2024, mutual fund proxy revenues were 66% higher than the prior fiscal year. Although it is difficult to forecast the levels of event-driven activity, we expect that the portion of revenues derived from mutual fund proxy activity may continue to experience volatility in the future.
 Distribution revenues primarily include revenues related to the physical mailing of proxy materials, interim communications, transaction reporting, customer communications and fulfillment services, as well as Broadridge Retirement and Workplace administrative services.
 Distribution cost of revenues consists primarily of postage-related expenses incurred in connection with our Investor Communication Solutions segment, as well as Broadridge Retirement and Workplace administrative services expenses. These costs are reflected in Cost of revenues.
 Closed sales represent an estimate of the expected annual recurring revenue for new client contracts that were signed by Broadridge in the current reporting period. Closed sales does not include event-driven or distribution activity. We consider contract terms, expected client volumes or activity, knowledge of the marketplace and experience with our clients, among other factors, when determining the estimate. Management uses Closed sales to measure the effectiveness of our sales and marketing programs, as an indicator of expected future revenues and as a performance metric in determining incentive compensation.
 Closed sales is not a measure of financial performance under GAAP, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for revenue or other income statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP. Closed sales is a useful metric for investors in understanding how management measures and evaluates our ongoing operational performance.
 The inherent variability of transaction volumes and activity levels can result in some variability of amounts reported as actual achieved Closed sales. Larger Closed sales can take up to 12 to 24 months or longer to convert to revenues, particularly for the services provided by our Global Technology and Operations segment. For the fiscal years ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, we reported Closed sales net of a 5.0% allowance adjustment. Consequently, our reported Closed sales amounts will not be adjusted for actual revenues achieved because these adjustments are estimated in the period the sale is reported. We assess this allowance amount at the end of each fiscal year to establish the appropriate allowance for the subsequent year using the trailing five years actual data as the starting point, normalized for outlying factors, if any, to enhance the accuracy of the allowance.
 For the fiscal years ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, Closed sales were $287.9 million and $341.8 million, respectively. The fiscal years ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, are net of an allowance adjustment of $15.2 million and $18.0 million, respectively.

 Revenues increased $382.3 million, or 6%, to $6,889.1 million from $6,506.8 million.
 • Recurring revenues increased $285.4 million, or 7%, to $4,507.9 million. Recurring revenue growth constant currency (Non-GAAP) was 7%, driven primarily by organic growth in ICS and GTO and acquisitions in GTO.

 • Event-driven revenues increased $34.0 million, or 12%, driven by a higher volume of mutual fund communications partially offset by a lower level of equity proxy contest activity.
 • Distribution revenues increased $63.0 million, or 3%, driven by the postage rate increase of approximately $114 million partially offset by lower mail volumes.
 Total operating expenses. Operating expenses increased $210.9 million, or 4%, to $5,700.6 million from $5,489.7 million:
 • Cost of revenues - The increase of $179.5 million primarily reflects higher expenses related to the SIS acquisition, the impact of higher postage and distribution costs in our ICS segment of approximately $58 million, and higher expenses related to higher revenues.
 • Selling, general and administrative expenses - The increase of $31.4 million was primarily driven by higher technology-related investments.
 Interest expense, net. Interest expense, net, was $122.7 million, a decrease of $15.4 million, or 11%, from $138.1 million in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to lower average borrowings rates.
 Other non-operating expenses, net. Other non-operating expenses, net for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025 was $7.1 million, compared to $1.7 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024.
 Provision for income taxes.
 • Effective tax rate for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025 - 20.7%.
 • Effective tax rate for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024 - 20.4%.
 The increase in the effective tax rate for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025 compared to the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024 was primarily driven by an increase in pre-tax income and lower tax benefits from statutory tax incentives, which was partially offset by an increase in discrete tax benefits.

 ANALYSIS OF REPORTABLE SEGMENTS
 Broadridge has two reportable segments: (1) Investor Communication Solutions and (2) Global Technology and Operations.
 The primary components of "Corporate and Other" are certain gains, losses, centrally managed activities, and non-operating expenses that have not been allocated to the reportable segments, such as interest expense.
 Certain corporate expenses, as well as certain centrally managed expenses, are allocated based upon budgeted amounts in a reasonable manner. Because the Company compensates the management of its various businesses on, among other factors, segment profit, the Company may elect to record certain segment-related operating and non-operating expense items in Corporate and Other rather than reflect such items in segment profit.

 For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025:
 • Recurring revenues increased $127.2 million, or 8%, to $1,776.1 million. Recurring revenue growth constant currency (Non-GAAP) was 8%, driven by 4pts of organic growth and 4pts from the acquisition of SIS.
 • By product line, Recurring revenue growth and Recurring revenue growth constant currency (Non-GAAP) were as follows:

 Capital markets rose 6% and 6%, respectively, driven by revenue from new sales and Internal Growth. Internal Growth benefited from higher trading volumes.
 Wealth and investment management rose 10% and 12%, respectively, driven by 10pts from the SIS acquisition and 1pt of Organic growth. Organic growth was negatively impacted by 4pts as a result of the loss of a large client during the prior year period.
 • Earnings before income taxes increased $28.0 million, as higher revenues more than offset higher expenses, including the impact of the SIS acquisition.
 • Pre-tax margins increased by 0.8 percentage points to 11.3% from 10.5%.
 Corporate and Other
 Loss before income taxes was $196.7 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, a decrease of $49.7 million, or 20%, compared to $246.3 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024. The decreased loss before income taxes was due to lower Restructuring and Other Related Costs, a decline in litigation expense of $18.4 million, and a decline in Interest expense, net of $15.4 million.

 Explanation and Reconciliation of the Company's Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
 The Company's results in this Annual Report on Form 10-K are presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP except where otherwise noted. In certain circumstances, Non-GAAP results have been presented. These Non-GAAP measures are Adjusted Operating income, Adjusted Operating income margin, Adjusted Net earnings, Adjusted earnings per share, Free cash flow, and Recurring revenue growth constant currency. These Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as a substitute for, the Company's reported results.
 The Company believes our Non-GAAP financial measures help investors understand how management plans, measures and evaluates the Company's business performance. Management believes that Non-GAAP measures provide consistency in its financial reporting and facilitates investors' understanding of the Company's operating results and trends by providing an additional basis for comparison. Management uses these Non-GAAP financial measures to, among other things, evaluate our ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. In addition, and as a consequence of the importance of these Non-GAAP financial measures in managing our business, the Company's Compensation Committee of the Board incorporates Non-GAAP financial measures in the evaluation process for determining management compensation.
 Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Operating Income Margin, Adjusted Net Earnings and Adjusted Earnings Per Share
 These Non-GAAP measures reflect Operating income, Operating income margin, Net earnings, and Diluted earnings per share, as adjusted to exclude the impact of certain costs, expenses, gains and losses and other specified items, the exclusion of which management believes provides insight regarding our ongoing operating performance. Depending on the period presented, these adjusted measures exclude the impact of certain of the following items:
 (i) Amortization of Acquired Intangibles and Purchased Intellectual Property, which represent non-cash amortization expenses associated with the Company's acquisition activities.
 (ii) Acquisition and Integration Costs, which represent certain transaction and integration costs associated with the Company's acquisition activities.
 (iii) Restructuring and Other Related Costs, which represent costs associated with the Company's Corporate Restructuring Initiative to exit and/or realign some of our businesses, streamline the Company's management structure, reallocate work to lower cost locations, and reduce headcount in deprioritized areas, in addition to other restructuring activities. Refer to Note 13, "Payables and Accrued Expenses" for further details on the Company's Corporate Restructuring Initiative.
 (iv) Litigation Settlement Charges, which represent reserves established during the third and fourth quarters of fiscal year 2024 related to the settlement of claims. Refer to Note 19, "Contractual Commitments, Contingencies and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements" for further details.

 We exclude Acquisition and Integration Costs, Restructuring and Other Related Costs and Litigation Settlement Charges from our Adjusted Operating income (as applicable) and other adjusted earnings measures because excluding such information provides us with an understanding of the results from the primary operations of our business and enhances comparability across fiscal reporting periods, as these items are not reflective of our underlying operations or performance.
 We also exclude the impact of Amortization of Acquired Intangibles and Purchased Intellectual Property, as these non-cash amounts are significantly impacted by the timing and size of individual acquisitions and do not factor into the Company's capital allocation decisions, management compensation metrics or multi-year objectives. Furthermore, management believes that this adjustment enables better comparison of our results as Amortization of Acquired Intangibles and Purchased Intellectual Property will not recur in future periods once such intangible assets have been fully amortized. Although we exclude Amortization of Acquired Intangibles and Purchased Intellectual Property from our adjusted earnings measures, our management believes that it is important for investors to understand that these intangible assets contribute to revenue generation. Amortization of intangible assets that relate to past acquisitions will recur in future periods until such intangible assets have been fully amortized. Any future acquisitions may result in the amortization of additional intangible assets.
 Free Cash Flow
 In addition to the Non-GAAP financial measures discussed above, we provide Free cash flow information because we consider Free cash flow to be a liquidity measure that provides useful information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated that could be used for dividends, share repurchases, strategic acquisitions, other investments, as well as debt servicing. Free cash flow is a Non-GAAP financial measure and is defined by the Company as Net cash flows provided by operating activities less Capital expenditures as well as Software purchases and capitalized internal use software.
 Recurring Revenue Growth Constant Currency
 As a multi-national company, we are subject to variability of our reported U.S. dollar results due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The exclusion of the impact of foreign currency exchange fluctuations from our Recurring revenue growth, or what we refer to as amounts expressed "on a constant currency basis," is a Non-GAAP measure. We believe that excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange fluctuations from our Recurring revenue growth provides additional information that enables enhanced comparison to prior periods.
 Changes in Recurring revenue growth expressed on a constant currency basis are presented excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange fluctuations. To present this information, current period results for entities reporting in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rates in effect during the corresponding period of the comparative year, rather than at the actual average exchange rates in effect during the current fiscal year.

 (a)Restructuring and Other Related Costs for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025 consists of severance and other costs related to the closure of substantially all operations of a production facility. Costs incurred are not reflected in segment profit and are recorded within Corporate and Other. The total estimated pre-tax costs for actions and associated costs related to the closure are approximately $20 million to $25 million and are expected to be completed by the end of the second quarter of fiscal year 2026.
 Restructuring and Other Related Costs for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024 includes $56.0 million of severance and professional services costs directly related to the Corporate Restructuring Initiative and a $7.0 million asset impairment charge as a result of the exit of a business in connection with the Corporate Restructuring Initiative.

 At June 30, 2025 and 2024, Cash and cash equivalents were $561.5 million and $304.4 million, respectively. Total stockholders' equity was $2,655.1 million and $2,168.2 million at June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. At the current time, and in future periods, we expect cash generated by our operations, together with existing cash, cash equivalents, and borrowings from the capital markets, to be sufficient to cover cash needs for working capital, capital expenditures, strategic acquisitions, dividends and common stock repurchases.
 We expect existing domestic cash, cash equivalents, cash flows from operations and borrowing capacity to continue to be sufficient to fund our domestic operating activities and cash commitments for investing and financing activities, such as regular quarterly dividends, debt repayment schedules, and material capital expenditures, for at least the next 12 months and thereafter for the foreseeable future. In addition, we expect existing foreign cash, cash equivalents, cash flows from operations and borrowing capacity to continue to be sufficient to fund our foreign operating activities and cash commitments for investing activities, such as material capital expenditures, for at least the next 12 months and thereafter for the foreseeable future. If these funds are needed for our operations in the U.S., we may be required to pay additional foreign taxes to repatriate these funds. However, while we may do so at a future date, the Company does not need to repatriate future foreign earnings to fund U.S. operations.

 The increase in cash from operating activities of $115.0 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, as compared to the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, was due to an increase in Net earnings of $141.4 million, an increase in cash provided from Accounts receivable of $69.1 million driven by higher cash collections relative to billings, an increase in the non-cash adjustments of $167.1 million, primarily related to a decrease in Deferred income taxes of $114.5 million and a decrease in cash used for client-related implementation costs of $25.2 million included in Other non-current assets. This was primarily offset by an increase in cash used for Accounts Payable and accrued expenses of $283.1 million, inclusive of an increase in taxes paid.
 The decrease in cash from investing activities of $168.2 million primarily reflects an increase in cash used for acquisitions of $159.2 million and cash used in software purchases and capitalized internal use software of $15.5 million.
 The increase in cash from financing activities of $254.8 million primarily reflects a decrease in cash used for stock buybacks of $350.5 million partially offset by a decrease in net borrowings of $44.4 million and an increase in dividends paid of $34.1 million.
 Income Taxes
 The Company, headquartered in the U.S., is routinely examined by the IRS and is also routinely examined by the tax authorities in the U.S. states and foreign countries in which it conducts business. The tax years under audit examination vary by tax jurisdiction. The Company regularly considers the likelihood of assessments in each of the jurisdictions resulting from examinations. To the extent the Company determines it has potential tax assessments in particular tax jurisdictions, the Company has established tax reserves which it believes are adequate in relation to the potential assessments. Once established, reserves are adjusted when there is more information available, when an event occurs necessitating a change to the reserves or the statute of limitations for the relevant taxing authority to examine the tax position has expired. The resolution of tax matters should not have a material effect on the financial condition of the Company or on the Company's Consolidated Statements of Earnings for a particular future period.
 Employee Benefit Plans
 The Company sponsors a Supplemental Officer Retirement Plan (the "SORP"), a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the "SERP"), an Executive Retiree Health Insurance Plan, and certain non-US benefits-related plans. Please refer to Note 17, "Employee Benefit Plans" to our Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 8. of Part II of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for a discussion on the Company's Employee Benefit Plans.

 (3)We enter into operating leases in the normal course of business relating to facilities and equipment. The majority of our lease agreements have fixed payment terms based on the passage of time. Certain facility and equipment leases require payment of maintenance, real estate taxes and related executory costs, and contain escalation provisions based on future adjustments in price indices. Our future operating lease obligations could change if we exit certain contracts and if we enter into additional operating lease agreements. See Note 8, "Leases" to our Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 8 of Part II of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information about our Leases and related matters.
 (4)Purchase obligations relate to payments to Kyndryl, Inc. related to the Amended IT Services Agreement (as described below) that expires in fiscal year 2027, the Private Cloud Agreement (as described below) that expires in fiscal year 2030, the AWS Cloud Agreement (as described below) that expires in fiscal year 2027, as well as other data center arrangements and software license agreements including hosted software arrangements, and software and hardware maintenance and support agreements, and certain other related arrangements. Purchase obligations also includes $54.6 million of other liabilities recorded on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2025.
 (5)The Company has a future commitment to fund $26.0 million to an investee that is not included in the table above due to the uncertainty of the timing of this future payment.
 (6)Due to the uncertainty related to the timing of the reversal of uncertain tax positions, only uncertain tax benefits related to certain settlements have been provided in the table above. The Company is unable to make reasonably reliable estimates related to the timing of the remaining gross unrecognized tax benefit liability of $100.6 million (inclusive of interest). See Note 18, "Income Taxes" to our Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 8. of Part II of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for further detail.
 (7)Certain post-employment benefit obligations reported in our Consolidated Balance Sheets in the amount of $83.5 million as of June 30, 2025 were not included in the table above due to the uncertainty of the timing of these future payments.
 Please refer to Note 19, "Contractual Commitments, Contingencies, and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements" to our Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 8. of Part II of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for a more detailed discussion of the Company's contractual obligations.

 ITEM 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
 Market Risks
 In the ordinary course of business, the financial position of the Company is routinely subject to certain market risks, notably the effects of changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. We manage our exposure to these market risks through our regular operating and financing activities and, when deemed appropriate, through the use of derivative financial instruments. As a result, the Company does not anticipate any material losses from these risks. We do not use derivatives for trading purposes, to generate income or to engage in speculative activity.
 Interest Rate Risk
 As of June 30, 2025, $1,012.6 million, or 31%, of the Company's total outstanding debt balance of $3,252.3 million is based on floating interest rates. Our $1,012.6 million in variable rate debt at June 30, 2025 consists of our revolving credit facility, which, depending on the currency of the loan, bears interest at Adjusted Term SOFR, Adjusted Term CORRA, EURIBOR, TIBOR, SONIA and STIBOR, respectively, plus 1.000% (subject to multiple step-ups to 1.250% and multiple step-downs to 0.785%, in each case based on ratings), plus an additional annual facility fee of 0.125% per annum (subject to multiple step-ups to 0.25% per annum and multiple step-downs to 0.090% per annum, in each case, based on ratings), and the outstanding portion of our Fiscal 2024 Amended Term Loan which bears interest at Adjusted Term SOFR plus 1.250% per annum (subject to a step-up to Adjusted Term SOFR plus 1.375% or step-downs to Adjusted Term SOFR plus 1.125% and Adjusted Term SOFR plus 1.000% in each case, based on ratings). We have assessed our exposure to changes in interest rates by analyzing the sensitivity to our earnings of a change in market interest rates on amounts borrowed from the revolving credit facility and Fiscal 2024 Amended Term Loan during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025. Assuming a hypothetical increase of one hundred basis points in interest rates on our variable rate debt during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, our pre-tax earnings would have decreased by approximately $13.8 million and $14.4 million, respectively; however, for both years, this would have been offset by interest earned on cash balances.
 Foreign Currency Risk
 While the substantial majority of our business is conducted within the U.S., approximately 14% of our fiscal year 2025 revenues were earned outside of the U.S. Our operations outside of the U.S. primarily reside in Canada, Europe and India. As a result, we are exposed to foreign currency risk from changes in the value of underlying assets and liabilities of our non-U.S. dollar-denominated foreign investments and foreign currency transactions, primarily with respect to the Canadian dollar, the British pound, the Euro, the Indian Rupee and the Swedish Krona.
 We manage our foreign currency risk primarily by incurring, to the extent practicable, operating and financing expenses in the local currency in the countries in which we operate. In addition, we executed a series of cross-currency swap derivative contracts with an aggregate notional amount of EUR 880 million which are designated as net investment hedges to hedge a portion of our net investment in our subsidiaries whose functional currency is the Euro. At June 30, 2025, the fair value of these derivatives is a liability of $24.6 million. Refer to Note 19, "Contractual Commitments, Contingencies, and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements" to our Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 8. of Part II of this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional details on our cross-currency swap derivative contracts.
 For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, a hypothetical 10% decrease in the value of the Canadian dollar, the British pound, the Euro, the Indian Rupee, and the Swedish Krona versus the U.S. dollar would have resulted in a decrease in our total pre-tax earnings of approximately $23.9 million and $22.5 million, respectively.

 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc.
 Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of June 30, 2025 and 2024, the related consolidated statements of earnings, comprehensive income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows, for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2025, and the related notes and the financial statement schedule listed in the Index at Item 15 (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). We also have audited the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).
 In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013) issued by COSO.
 Basis for Opinions
 The Company's management is responsible for these financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and an opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
 We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.
 Our audits of the financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures to respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
 Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
 Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 Critical Audit Matter
 The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

 Goodwill - Refer to Notes 2 and 10 to the financial statements

 Critical Audit Matter Description
 The Company's evaluation of goodwill for impairment involves the comparison of the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value. The Company determines the fair value of its reporting units using the income approach, which considers a discounted future cash flow analysis using various assumptions, including projections of revenues based on assumed long-term growth rates and projections of earnings before interest and taxes, estimated costs and appropriate discount rates based on the particular reporting unit's weighted-average cost of capital. The principal factors used in the discounted cash flow analysis requiring judgment are the projected future operating cash flows based on forecasted earnings before interest and taxes, including projections of revenues, and the selection of the terminal value growth rate and discount rate assumptions.

 During fiscal year 2025, the Company performed the required impairment tests of goodwill and determined that there was no impairment. The Company also performed a sensitivity analysis under Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test assuming hypothetical reductions in the fair values of the reporting units. A 10% change in their estimates of projected future operating cash flows, discount rates, or terminal value growth rates used in their calculations of the fair values of the reporting units would not result in an impairment of their goodwill.

 Auditing the fair value of a reporting unit within the Global Technology Operations (GTO) segment involved a high degree of subjectivity, including the need to involve our fair value specialists, as it relates to evaluating whether management's judgments in determining whether the projected future operating cash flows based on forecasted earnings before interest and taxes, including projections of revenues, selection of terminal value growth rates and the weighted-average cost of capital used to determine the discount rates were appropriate.

 How this Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit

 Our audit procedures related to the projected future operating cash flows based on forecasted earnings before interest and taxes, including projections of revenues, selection of the terminal value growth rates and weighted-average cost of capital used to determine the discount rates for a reporting unit within the GTO segment included the following, among others:
 • We tested the effectiveness of controls over goodwill, including those over the projected future operating cash flows based on forecasted earnings before interest and taxes, including projections of revenues, and the selection of the terminal value growth rates and weighted-average cost of capital used to determine the discount rates.
 • We performed a sensitivity analysis on the projected future operating cash flows to determine what revenue and earnings before interest and taxes growth rates are needed to cause an impairment for certain of the reporting units.
 • We evaluated the reasonableness of management's projected future operating cash flows based on forecasted earnings before interest and taxes, including projections of revenues by comparing to (1) historical results for the reporting unit, (2) internal communications to management and the Board of Directors, and (3) forecasted information included in Company press releases, analyst and industry reports of the Company and companies in its peer group.
 • We considered the impact of changes in the regulatory environment, uncertainty in the market, and economic conditions on management's forecasts.
 • With the assistance of our fair value specialists, we evaluated the discount rate and terminal value growth rate for the reporting unit, including testing the underlying source information and the mathematical accuracy of the calculations by developing a range of independent estimates and comparing those to the discount and terminal value growth rates selected by management.

 B. Consolidation and Basis of Presentation. The Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") in the U.S. and in accordance with the SEC requirements for Annual Reports on Form 10-K. These financial statements present the consolidated position of the Company and include the entities in which the Company directly or indirectly has a controlling financial interest, entities in which the Company has investments recorded under the equity method of accounting as well as certain marketable and non-marketable securities. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Amounts presented may not sum due to rounding. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation where applicable.

 NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 A. Use of Estimates. The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes thereto. These estimates are based on management's best knowledge of current events, historical experience, actions that the Company may undertake in the future and on various other assumptions and judgment that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. The use of estimates in specific accounting policies is described further in the notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements, as appropriate.
 B. Revenue Recognition. ASC 606 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" outlines a single comprehensive model to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. The core principle is that an entity recognizes revenue to reflect the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.
 The Company's revenues from clients are primarily generated from fees for providing investor communications and technology-enabled services and solutions. Revenues are recognized for the two reportable segments as follows:
 • Investor Communication Solutions—Revenues are generated primarily from processing and distributing investor communications and other related services as well as vote processing and tabulation. The Company typically enters into agreements with clients to provide services on a fee for service basis. Fees received for processing and distributing investor communications are generally variably priced and recognized as revenue over time as the Company provides the services to clients based on the number of units processed, which coincides with the pattern of value transfer to the client. Broadridge works directly with corporate issuers ("Issuers") and mutual funds to ensure that the account holders of the Company's bank and broker clients, who are also the shareholders of Issuers and mutual funds, receive the appropriate investor communications materials and the services are fulfilled in accordance with each Issuer's and mutual fund's requirements. Broadridge works directly with the Issuers and mutual funds to resolve any issues that may arise. As such, Issuers and mutual funds are viewed as the customer of the Company's services. As a result, revenues for distribution services as well as proxy materials fulfillment services are recorded in Revenue on a gross basis with corresponding costs including amounts remitted to the broker-dealers and banks (referred to as "Nominees") recorded in Cost of revenues. Fees for the Company's investor communications services arrangements are typically billed and paid on a monthly basis following the delivery of the services. The Company also offers certain hosted service arrangements that can be priced on a fixed and/or variable basis for which revenue is recognized over time as the Company satisfies its performance obligation by delivering services to the client on a monthly basis based on the number of transactions processed or units delivered, in the case of variable priced arrangements, or a fixed monthly fee in the case of fixed price arrangements, in each case which coincides with the pattern of value transfer to the client. These services may be billed in a variety of payment frequencies depending on the specific arrangement.
 • Global Technology and Operations—Revenues are generated primarily from fees for trade processing and related services. Revenue is recognized over time as the Company satisfies its performance obligation by delivering services to the client. The Company's arrangements for processing and related services typically consist of an obligation to provide specific services to its clients on a when and if needed basis (a stand ready obligation) with revenue recognized from the satisfaction of the performance obligations on a monthly basis generally in the amount billable to the client. These services are generally provided under variable priced arrangements based on volume of service and can include minimum monthly usage fees. Client service agreements often include up-front consideration in addition to the recurring fee for trade processing. Up-front implementation fees, as well as certain enhancements to existing technology platforms, are deferred and recognized on a straight-line basis over the service term of the contract which corresponds to the timing of transfer of value to the client that commences after client acceptance when the processing term begins. In addition, revenue is also generated from the fulfillment of professional services engagements which are generally priced on a time and materials or fixed price basis, and are recognized as the services are provided to the client which corresponds to the timing of transfer of value to the client. Finally, the Company generally recognizes license revenues from software term licenses installed on clients' premises upon delivery and acceptance of the software license, assuming a contract is deemed to exist, and recognizes revenue attributed to the associated software maintenance and support obligation over the contract term. Software term license revenue is not a significant portion of the Company's revenues.

 The Company uses the following methods, inputs, and assumptions in determining amounts of revenue to recognize:
 Identification of Performance Obligations
 For revenue arrangements containing multiple goods or services, the Company accounts for the individual goods or services as a separate performance obligation if they are distinct, the good or service is separately identifiable from other items in the arrangement, and if a client can benefit from it on its own or with other resources that are readily available to the client. If these criteria are not met, the promised goods or services are accounted for as a combined performance obligation.
 Transaction Price
 Once separate performance obligations are determined, the transaction price is allocated to the individual performance obligations within a contract. If the contracted prices reflect the relative standalone selling prices for the individual performance obligations, no allocations are made. Otherwise, the Company uses the relative selling price method to allocate the transaction price, obtained from sources such as the observable price of a good or service when the Company sells that good or service separately in similar circumstances and to similar clients. If such evidence is unavailable, the Company uses the best estimate of the selling price, which includes various internal factors such as pricing strategy and market factors. A significant portion of the Company's performance obligations are generated from transactions with volume based fees and includes services that are delivered at the same time. The Company recognizes revenue related to these arrangements over time as the services are provided to the client. While many of the Company's contracts contain some component of variable consideration, the Company only recognizes variable consideration that is not expected to reverse. The Company allocates variable payments to distinct services in an overall contract when the variable payment relates specifically to that particular service and for which the variable payment reflects what the Company expects to receive in exchange for that particular service. As a result, the Company generally allocates and recognizes variable consideration in the period it has the contractual right to invoice the client.
 As described above, our most significant performance obligations involve variable consideration which constitutes the majority of our revenue streams. The Company's variable consideration components meet the criteria in ASC 606 for exclusion from disclosure of the remaining transaction price allocated to unsatisfied performance obligations as does any contracts with clients with an original duration of one year or less. The Company has contracts with clients that vary in length depending on the nature of the services and contractual terms negotiated with the client, and they generally extend over a multi-year period.
 Taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction, that are collected by the Company from a client, are excluded from revenue. Distribution revenues associated with shipping and handling activities are accounted for as a fulfillment activity and recognized as the related services or products are transferred to the client. As a practical expedient, the Company does not adjust the transaction price for the effects of a significant financing component if, at contract inception, the period between client payment and the transfer of goods or services is expected to be one year or less.
 C. Cash and Cash Equivalents. Investment securities with an original maturity of 90 days or less are considered cash equivalents. The fair value of the Company's Cash and cash equivalents approximates carrying value due to their short term nature.
 D. Financial Instruments. Substantially all of the financial instruments of the Company other than Long-term debt are carried at fair values, or at carrying amounts that approximate fair values because of the short maturity of the instruments. The carrying value of the Company's long-term fixed-rate senior notes represent the face value of the long-term fixed-rate senior notes net of the unamortized discount and net of the associated unamortized debt issuance cost. The fair value of the Company's long-term fixed-rate senior notes is based on quoted market prices. Refer to Note 14, "Borrowings," for a further description of the Company's long-term fixed-rate senior notes as well as Note 7, "Fair Value of Financial Instruments" for additional details on the fair value of the Company's financial instruments. In addition, refer to Note 19, "Contractual Commitments, Contingencies, and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements" for details on the Company's cross-currency swap derivative contracts which are carried at fair value.
 E. Property, Plant and Equipment. Property, plant and equipment is initially recorded at cost and depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the assets using the straight-line method. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the term of the lease or the estimated useful lives of the improvements. The estimated useful lives of assets are as follows:

 Equipment
 3 to 7 years

 Buildings and Building Improvements
 5 to 20 years

 Furniture and fixtures
 4 to 7 years

 Refer to Note 9, "Property, Plant and Equipment, Net", for a further description of the Company's Property, plant and equipment, net.
 F. Securities. Securities are non-derivatives that are reflected in Other non-current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, unless management intends to dispose of the investment within twelve months of the end of the reporting period, in which case they are reflected in Other current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. These investments are in entities over which the Company does not have control, joint control, or significant influence. Securities that have a readily determinable fair value are carried at fair value. Securities without a readily determinable fair value are initially recognized at cost and subsequently carried at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in transactions for an identical or similar investment of the same issuer, such as subsequent capital raising transactions. Changes in the value of securities with or without a readily determinable fair value are recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings. In determining whether a security without a readily determinable fair value is impaired, management considers qualitative factors to identify an impairment including the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer. Refer to Note 7, "Fair Value of Financial Instruments" for additional details on the fair value of the Company's securities.
 G. Inventories. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (determined on a first-in, first-out basis) or market. Inventory balances of $ 32.1 million and $ 30.5 million, consisting of forms and envelopes used in the mailing of proxy and other materials to our customers, are reflected in Other current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
 H. Deferred Client Conversion and Start-Up Costs. Deferred client conversion and start-up costs include direct costs incurred to set up or convert a client's systems to function with the Company's technology, and are generally deferred and recognized on a straight-line basis over the service term of the arrangement to which the costs relate, which commences when the client goes live with the Company's services. The key judgment for determining the amount of costs to be deferred relates to the extent to which such costs are recoverable. This estimate includes (i) projected future client revenues, including variable revenues, offset by an estimate of conversion costs including an estimate of onboarding costs as well as ongoing operational costs, and (ii) an estimate of the expected client life. This is also the basis for which the Company assesses such costs for impairment. Refer to Note 11, "Deferred Client Conversion and Start-up Costs" for a further description of the Company's Deferred client conversion and start-up costs.
 I. Deferred Sales Commission Costs. The Company defers incremental costs to obtain a client contract that it expects to recover, which consists of sales commissions incurred, only if the contract is executed. Deferred sales commission costs are amortized on a straight-line basis using a portfolio approach consistent with the pattern of transfer of the goods or services to which the asset relates, which also considers expected customer lives. As a practical expedient, the Company recognizes the sales commissions as an expense when incurred if the amortization period of the sales commission asset that the entity otherwise would have recognized is one year or less. The Company evaluates the carrying value of deferred sales commission costs for impairment on the basis of whether these costs are fully recoverable from the expected future undiscounted net operating cash flows of the portfolio of clients to which the deferred sales commission costs relate. Refer to Note 12, "Other Non-Current Assets" for further information related to the Company's Deferred sales commission costs.
 J. Deferred Data Center Costs. Data center costs relate to conversion costs associated with our principal data center systems and applications. Costs directly related to the activities necessary to make the data center usable for its intended purpose are deferred and amortized over the life of the contract on a straight-line basis commencing on the date the data center has achieved full functionality. These deferred costs are reflected in Other non-current assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Refer to Note 12, "Other Non-Current Assets" for a further description of the Company's Deferred data center costs.

 K. Goodwill. The Company does not amortize goodwill but instead tests goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level at least annually or more frequently if circumstances indicate possible impairment. The Company tests for goodwill impairment annually in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year, using the March 31 financial statement balances. The Company's evaluation of goodwill for impairment involves the comparison of the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value. The Company determines the fair value of its reporting units using the income approach, which considers a discounted future cash flow analysis using various assumptions, including projections of revenues based on assumed long-term growth rates, estimated costs and appropriate discount rates based on the particular reporting unit's weighted-average cost of capital. The principal factors used in the discounted cash flow analysis requiring judgment are the projected future operating cash flows based on forecasted earnings before interest and taxes, and the selection of the terminal value growth rate and discount rate assumptions. The weighted-average cost of capital takes into account the relative weight of each component of our consolidated capital structure (equity and long-term debt). The estimates of long-term growth and costs are based on historical data, various internal estimates and a variety of external sources, and are developed as part of the Company's routine, long-range planning process. If the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss shall be recognized in an amount equal to that excess, not to exceed the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. Refer to Note 10, "Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net" for a further description on the Company's accounting for goodwill.
 L. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset (or asset group) may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is measured by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset (or asset group) to the estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to be generated by the asset (or asset group). If the carrying amount of an asset (or asset group) exceeds its expected estimated future cash flows, an impairment charge is recognized for the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset (or asset group) exceeds its fair value. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives and are also reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. Refer to Note 9, "Property, Plant and Equipment, Net" for a further description of the Company's Property, plant and equipment, net. Refer to Note 6, "Acquisitions" and Note 10, "Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net" for a further description of the Company's Intangible assets, net.
 M. Equity Method Investments. The Company's investments resulting in a 20% to 50% ownership interest are accounted for using the equity method of accounting when the ability to exercise significant influence is maintained by the Company. The Company's share of net income or losses of equity method investments is included in Other non-operating income (expenses), net. Equity method investments are included in Other non-current assets. Equity method investments are reviewed for impairment by assessing if a decline in market value of the investment below the carrying value is other than temporary, which considers the intent and ability to retain the investment, the length of time and extent that the market value has been less than cost, and the financial condition of the investee.
 N. Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions. The assets and liabilities of the Company's foreign subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars based on exchange rates in effect at the end of each period. Revenues and expenses are translated at average exchange rates during the periods. Currency transaction gains or losses are included in Non-operating income (expenses), net. Gains or losses from balance sheet translation are included in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).
 O. Distribution Cost of Revenues. Distribution cost of revenues consists primarily of postage related expenses incurred in connection with the Company's Investor Communication Solutions segment, as well as Broadridge Retirement and Workplace administrative services expenses. These costs are reflected in Cost of revenues in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings.
 P. Stock-Based Compensation. The Company accounts for stock-based compensation by recognizing the measurement of stock-based compensation expense in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings based on the fair value of the award on the date of grant. For stock options issued, the fair value of each stock option was estimated on the date of grant using a binomial option-pricing model. The binomial model considers a range of assumptions related to volatility, dividend yield, risk-free interest rate, and employee exercise behavior. Expected volatilities utilized in the binomial model are based on a combination of implied market volatilities, historical volatility of the Company's stock price, and other factors. Similarly, the dividend yield is based on historical experience and expected future changes. The risk-free rate is derived from the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The binomial model also incorporates exercise and forfeiture assumptions based on an analysis of historical data. The expected life of the stock option grants is derived from the output of the binomial model and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. For restricted stock units, the fair value of the award is based on the current fair value of the Company's stock on the date of grant less the present value of future expected dividends discounted at the risk-free-rate derived from the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. Refer to Note 16, "Stock-Based Compensation" for a further description of the Company's stock-based compensation.

 Q. Internal Use Software. Expenditures for major software purchases and software developed or obtained for internal use are capitalized and amortized on a straight-line basis generally over a three - to five-year period or another period deemed appropriate based on the specific characteristics of the software, considering the potential impact of obsolescence, speed of technology changes, competition, and other economic factors. For software developed or obtained for internal use, the Company's accounting policy provides for the capitalization of external direct costs of materials and services associated with developing or obtaining internal use computer software. In addition, the Company also capitalizes payroll and payroll-related costs for employees who are directly associated with internal use computer software projects. The amount of capitalizable payroll costs with respect to these employees is limited to direct time spent on such projects. Costs associated with preliminary project stage activities, training, maintenance, and all other post-implementation stage activities are expensed as incurred. The Company also expenses internal costs related to minor upgrades and enhancements, as it is impractical to separate these costs from normal maintenance activities. Refer to Note 10, "Goodwill and Intangible assets, Net" for a further description of the Company's capitalized software.
 R. Income Taxes. The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method, which establishes financial accounting and reporting standards for the effect of income taxes. The objectives of accounting for income taxes are to recognize the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current year and deferred tax liabilities and assets for the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements or tax returns. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized based on temporary differences between the consolidated financial statement carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse.
 Judgment is required in addressing the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our Consolidated Financial Statements or tax returns (e.g., realization of deferred tax assets, changes in tax laws or interpretations thereof). Valuation allowances are recognized to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that the Company will not be able to utilize the deferred tax assets of certain subsidiaries to offset future taxable earnings. The determination as to whether a deferred tax asset will be recognized is made on a jurisdictional basis and is based on the evaluation of historical taxable income or loss, projected future taxable income, carryforward periods, scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities and tax planning strategies. Projected future taxable income is based on expected results and assumptions as to the jurisdiction in which the income will be earned. The assumptions used to project future taxable income requires significant judgment and are consistent with the plans and estimates used to manage the underlying businesses.
 Pursuant to provisions under the Inflation Reduction Act, the Company purchased transferable federal tax credits during fiscal year 2025. Such federal tax credits were purchased at negotiated discounts, resulting in an income tax benefit recorded during the year ended June 30, 2025. Purchased tax credits that will offset the current income tax liability are recorded as an adjustment to income taxes payable or refundable. The cash payments made for income taxes as disclosed on the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows include amounts paid to third parties for the purchase of tax credits.
 On July 4, 2025, the U.S. government enacted The One Big Beautiful Bill Act of 2025 which includes, among other provisions, changes to the U.S. corporate income tax system including the allowance of immediate expensing of qualifying research and development expenses and permanent extensions of certain provisions within the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. Certain provisions are effective for Broadridge beginning with the fiscal year ending June 30, 2026. We are evaluating the future impact of these tax law changes on our financial statements.
 Refer to Note 18, "Income Taxes" for a further description of the Company's income taxes.
 S. Concentration of Risk. The majority of our clients operate in the financial services industry. Our largest single client in each of our fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023 accounted for approximately 7 %, 8 %, and 7 % of our consolidated revenues.
 T. New Accounting Pronouncements.

The current cost basis of the crypto assets is immaterial.

 NOTE 3. REVENUE RECOGNITION
 Disaggregation of Revenue
 The Company has presented below its revenue disaggregated by product line and by revenue type within each of its Investor Communication Solutions and Global Technology and Operations reportable segments.
 Revenues in the Investor Communication Solutions segment are derived from both recurring and event-driven activity. In addition, the level of recurring and event-driven activity the Company processes directly impacts Distribution revenues. While event-driven activity is highly repeatable, it may not recur on an annual basis. Event-driven revenues are based on the number of special events and corporate transactions the Company processes. Event-driven activity is impacted by financial market conditions and changes in regulatory compliance requirements, resulting in fluctuations in the timing and levels of event-driven revenues. Distribution revenues primarily include revenues related to the physical mailing and distribution of proxy materials, interim communications, transaction reporting, customer communications and fulfillment services, as well as Broadridge Retirement and Workplace administrative services.

 Contract assets result from revenue already recognized but not yet invoiced, including certain future amounts to be collected under software term licenses and certain other client contracts. Contract liabilities represent consideration received or receivable from clients before the transfer of control occurs (deferred revenue). Contract balances are reported in a net contract asset or liability position on a contract-by-contract basis at the end of each reporting period.

 During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, contract assets increased primarily due to a difference between the timing of billing and the revenue recognition of software term license revenues, while contract liabilities decreased due to the timing of client invoices in relation to the timing of revenue recognized. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, contract assets increased primarily due to a increase in software term license revenues and contract liabilities increased primarily due to the timing of client invoices in relation to the timing of revenue recognized. The Company recognized $ 288.4 million of revenue during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025 that was included in the contract liability balance as of June 30, 2024. The Company recognized $ 249.4 million of revenue during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024 that was included in the contract liability balance as of June 30, 2023. The Company recognized $ 236.5 million of revenue during fiscal year ended June 30, 2023 that was included in the contract liability balance as of June 30, 2022.

 NOTE 4. WEIGHTED-AVERAGE SHARES OUTSTANDING
 Basic earnings per share ("EPS") is calculated by dividing the Company's Net earnings by the basic Weighted-average shares outstanding for the periods presented. The Company calculates diluted EPS using the treasury stock method, which reflects the potential dilution that could occur if outstanding stock options at the presented date are exercised and restricted stock unit awards have vested.
 As of June 30, 2025, 2024 and 2023, the computation of diluted EPS excluded 0.5 million, 0.3 million and 1.2 million options and restricted stock units to purchase Broadridge common stock, respectively, as the effect of their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.
 The following table sets forth the denominators of the basic and diluted EPS computations:

 NOTE 6. ACQUISITIONS
 Assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations are recorded on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets as of the respective acquisition date based upon the estimated fair values at such date. The results of operations of the businesses acquired by the Company are included in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Earnings since the respective dates of acquisition. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the underlying assets acquired and liabilities assumed is allocated to Goodwill. Pro forma information for these acquired businesses is not provided because they did not have a material effect, individually or in the aggregate, on the Company's consolidated results of operations.

 FISCAL YEAR 2025 BUSINESS COMBINATION
 SIS
 On November 1, 2024, the Company acquired Kyndryl's Securities Industry Services ("SIS") business ("SIS Business") to provide wealth management, capital markets, and information technology solutions in Canada. SIS is included in the Company's GTO reportable segment.

 • For tax purposes, Goodwill is amortizable and tax deductible.
 • Intangible assets acquired consist primarily of software technology and customer relationships, which are being amortized over a ten -year life.
 • Our discussions with the Canadian Competition Bureau are ongoing.
 In connection with the acquisition, on November 1, 2024, Broadridge Software Limited, a subsidiary of the Company, entered into the SIS Services Agreement with Kyndryl Canada Limited ("Kyndryl Canada") pursuant to which Kyndryl Canada will provide infrastructure managed services for the SIS Business. Refer to Note 19, "Contractual Commitments, Contingencies and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements" for further details.

 AdvisorTarget
 In May 2024, the Company acquired AdvisorTarget, a market leader in providing asset management and wealth management firms with data products to help power digital marketing, sales and engagement programs targeting financial advisors. AdvisorTarget is included in the Company's ICS reportable segment. The aggregate purchase price included $ 34.3 million in cash, $ 0.2 million in deferred payments, $ 1.6 million for the settlement of a preexisting relationship, and contingent consideration with a maximum potential pay-out of $ 30.5 million. The contingent consideration is payable through fiscal year 2028 upon the achievement by the acquired business of certain defined revenue targets. After measurement period adjustments, net tangible liabilities assumed in the transaction were $ 0.8 million, and contingent liabilities incurred were valued at $ 14.0 million. This acquisition resulted in $ 38.6 million of Goodwill, which is tax deductible. Intangible assets acquired, which totaled $ 12.1 million, consist primarily of software technology and customer relationships, which are being amortized over a five-year life.
 During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, there were no material acquisitions.

 NOTE 7. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
 Accounting guidance on fair value measurements for certain financial assets and liabilities requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

 Level 1

 Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

 Level 2

 Observable market-based inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

 Level 3

 Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.

 In valuing assets and liabilities, the Company is required to maximize the use of quoted market prices and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The Company calculates the fair value of its Level 1 and Level 2 instruments, as applicable, based on the exchange-traded price of similar or identical instruments where available or based on other observable instruments. These calculations take into consideration the credit risk of both the Company and its counterparties. The Company has not changed its valuation techniques in measuring the fair value of any financial assets and liabilities during the period.
 The fair values of contingent consideration obligations are based on a probability weighted approach derived from the estimates of earn-out criteria and the probability assessment with respect to the likelihood of achieving those criteria. The measurement is based on significant inputs that are not observable in the market, therefore, the Company classifies this liability as Level 3 in the table below.
 The following tables set forth the Company's financial assets and liabilities at June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, that are recorded at fair value, segregated by level within the fair value hierarchy:

 The Company did not incur any Level 3 fair value asset impairments during fiscal year 2025 or fiscal year 2024. Changes in economic conditions or model based valuation techniques may require the transfer of financial instruments between levels. The Company's policy is to record transfers between levels, if any, as of the beginning of the fiscal year.

 NOTE 8. LEASES
 The Company's leases consist primarily of real estate leases in locations where the Company maintains operations, and are classified as operating leases.
 The Company evaluates each lease and service arrangement at inception to determine if the arrangement is, or contains, a lease. A lease exists if the Company obtains substantially all of the economic benefits of and has the right to control the use of an asset for a period of time. The lease term begins on the commencement date, which is the date the Company takes possession of the leased property and also classifies the lease as either operating or finance, and may include options to extend or terminate the lease if exercise of the option to extend or terminate the lease is considered to be reasonably certain. The Company's options to extend or terminate a lease generally do not exceed five years. The lease term is used both to determine lease classification as an operating or finance lease and to calculate straight-line lease expense for operating leases. The weighted average remaining operating lease term as of June 30, 2025 was 6.5 years.
 ROU assets represent the Company's right to use an underlying asset for the lease term while lease liabilities represent the Company's obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of fixed lease payments over the lease term. ROU assets also include prepaid lease payments and exclude lease incentives received. Certain leases require the Company to pay taxes, insurance, maintenance, and/or other operating expenses associated with the leased asset. Such amounts are not included in the measurement of the lease liability to the extent they are variable in nature (e.g. based on actual costs incurred). These variable lease costs are recognized as a variable lease expense when incurred. As the Company's leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate to measure the lease liability and the associated ROU asset at commencement date. The incremental borrowing rate was determined based on the rate of interest that the Company would have to pay to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments on a collateralized basis over a similar term. The Company uses the unsecured borrowing rate and risk-adjusts that rate to approximate a collateralized rate. The weighted average discount rate used in measurement of the Company's operating lease liabilities as of June 30, 2025 was 3.2 %.

 During fiscal years 2025, 2024 and 2023, the Company performed the required impairment tests of Goodwill and determined that there was no impairment. The Company also performs a sensitivity analysis under Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test assuming hypothetical reductions in the fair values of the reporting units. A 10 % change in our estimates of projected future operating cash flows, discount rates, or terminal value growth rates, which are the most significant estimates used in our calculations of the fair values of the reporting units, would not result in an impairment of our goodwill.

 Deferred Client Conversion and Start-up Costs
 Deferred client conversion and start-up costs include direct costs incurred to set up or convert a client's systems to function with the Company's technology, and are generally deferred and recognized on a straight-line basis over the service term of the arrangement to which the costs relate, which commences when the client goes live with the Company's services. The key judgment for determining the amount of costs to be deferred relates to the extent to which such costs are recoverable. This estimate includes (i) projected future client revenues, including variable revenues, offset by an estimate of conversion costs including an estimate of onboarding costs as well as ongoing operational costs, and (ii) an estimate of the expected client life. This is also the basis for how the Company assesses such costs for impairment.

 Deferred client conversion and start-up costs of $ 842.9 million as of June 30, 2025 consist of costs incurred to set-up or convert a client's systems to function with the Company's technology of $ 837.5 million, as well as other start-up costs of $ 5.4 million. Deferred client conversion and start-up costs of $ 892.1 million as of June 30, 2024 consist of costs incurred to set-up or convert a client's systems to function with the Company's technology of $ 884.5 million, as well as other start-up costs of $ 7.6 million.
 The total amount of deferred client conversion and start-up costs and deferred sales commission costs amortized in Operating expenses for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 was $ 148.8 million and $ 132.9 million, respectively.

 Fiscal 2025 Revolving Credit Facility: In December 2024, the Company entered into an amended and restated $ 1.5 billion five-year revolving credit facility (the "Fiscal 2025 Revolving Credit Facility"), which replaced the $ 1.5 billion five-year revolving credit facility entered during April 2021 (the "Fiscal 2021 Revolving Credit Facility) (together the "Revolving Credit Facilities"). The Fiscal 2025 Revolving Credit Facility is comprised of a $ 1.0 billion U.S. dollar tranche and a $ 500.0 million multicurrency tranche.
 The weighted-average interest rate on the Revolving Credit Facilities was 5.49 %, 6.50 % and 4.95 % for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The fair value of the variable-rate Fiscal 2025 Revolving Credit Facility borrowings at June 30, 2025 approximates carrying value and has been classified as a Level 2 financial liability (as defined in Note 7, "Fair Value of Financial Instruments").

 Under the Fiscal 2025 Revolving Credit Facility, revolving loans denominated in U.S. Dollars, Canadian Dollars, Euro, Sterling, Swedish Kronor and Yen bears interest at Adjusted Term SOFR, Adjusted Term CORRA, EURIBOR, TIBOR, SONIA and STIBOR, respectively, plus 1.000 % (subject to multiple step-ups to 1.250 % and multiple step-downs to 0.785 %, in each case based on ratings). The Fiscal 2025 Revolving Credit Facility also has a facility fee of 0.125 % per annum (subject to multiple step-ups to 0.25 % per annum and multiple step-downs to 0.090 % per annum, in each case, based on ratings). The Company may voluntarily prepay, in whole or in part and without premium or penalty, borrowings under the Fiscal 2025 Revolving Credit Facility in accordance with individual drawn loan maturities. The Fiscal 2025 Revolving Credit Facility is subject to certain covenants, including a leverage ratio. At June 30, 2025, the Company is in compliance with all covenants of the Fiscal 2025 Revolving Credit Facility.
 Fiscal 2021 Term Loans: In March 2021, the Company entered into an amended and restated term credit agreement as amended on December 23, 2021 and May 23, 2023, ("Term Credit Agreement") providing for term loan commitments in an aggregate principal amount of $ 2.55 billion, comprised of a $ 1.0 billion tranche ("Tranche 1") and a $ 1.55 billion tranche ("Tranche 2," together with Tranche 1, the "Fiscal 2021 Term Loans"). The proceeds of the Fiscal 2021 Term Loans were used by the Company to solely finance the acquisition of Itiviti Holding AB and pay certain fees and expenses in connection therewith. Once borrowed, amounts repaid or prepaid in respect of such Fiscal 2021 Term Loans may not be reborrowed. The Tranche 1 Loan was to mature on the date that is 18 months after the date on which the Fiscal 2021 Term Loans were borrowed (the "Funding Date"), but was repaid in full in May 2021 with proceeds from the Fiscal 2021 Senior Notes (as discussed further below). The Tranche 2 Loan was to mature in May 2024. The Tranche 2 Loan bore interest at Adjusted Term SOFR plus 1.000 % per annum (subject to step-ups to Adjusted Term SOFR plus 1.250 % or a step-down to SOFR plus 0.750 % based on ratings).

 NOTE 16. STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
 Incentive Equity Awards. The Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. 2007 Omnibus Award Plan (the "2007 Plan") and 2018 Omnibus Award Plan (the "2018 Plan") provide for the granting of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, phantom stock awards, stock bonuses and performance compensation awards to employees, non-employee directors, and other key individuals who perform services for the Company. The 2018 Plan was approved by shareholders in November 2018 and replaced the 2007 Plan. As of June 30, 2025, there were 5.6 million shares available for future issuance under the 2018 Plan. The accounting for stock-based compensation requires the measurement of stock-based compensation expense to be recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings based on the fair value of the award on the date of grant. In accordance with the 2007 Plan and 2018 Plan, the Company's stock-based compensation consists of the following:
 Stock Options: Stock options are granted to employees at exercise prices equal to the fair market value of the Company's common stock on the dates of grant. Stock options are generally issued under a graded vesting schedule, meaning that they vest ratably over four years, and have a term of 10 years. A portion of the stock options granted in fiscal year 2018 have a cliff vesting schedule meaning that they fully vest in four years from the grant date and have a term of 10 years. Compensation expense for stock options under a graded vesting schedule is recognized over the requisite service period for each separately vesting portion of the stock option award. Compensation expense for stock options under a cliff vesting schedule is recognized equally over the vesting period of four years with 25 percent of the cost recognized over each 12 months period net of estimated forfeitures.

 Time-based Restricted Stock Units: The Company has a time-based restricted stock unit ("RSU") program under which RSUs representing the right to receive one share of the Company's common stock for each vested RSU granted. Time-based RSUs typically vest two and one-half years from the date of grant. The Company records stock compensation expense for time-based RSUs net of estimated forfeitures on a straight-line basis over the vesting period.
 Performance-based Restricted Stock Units: The Company has a performance-based RSU program under which RSUs representing the right to receive one share of the Company's common stock for each vested RSU granted. RSUs vest upon the achievement by the Company of specific performance metrics. The Company records stock compensation expense for performance-based RSUs net of estimated forfeitures on a straight-line basis over the performance period, plus a subsequent vesting period, which typically totals approximately two and one-half years from the date of grant.
 The activity related to the Company's incentive equity awards for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2025, 2024 and 2023 consisted of the following:

 (a) Calculated using the closing stock price on the last trading day of fiscal year 2025 of $ 243.03, less the option exercise price, multiplied by the number of instruments.

The Company repurchased 0.4 million shares in fiscal year 2025 under our share repurchase program as compared to 2.3 million shares repurchased in fiscal year 2024 under our share repurchase program, which excludes shares withheld by the Company to cover payroll taxes on the vesting of RSU awards, which are also accounted for as treasury stock. The Company considers several factors in determining when to execute share repurchases, including, among other things, actual and potential acquisition activity, cash balances and cash flows, issuances due to employee benefit plan activity, and market conditions.

 NOTE 17. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS
 A. Defined Contribution Savings Plans. The Company sponsors a 401(k) savings plan covering eligible U.S. employees of the Company. This plan provides a base contribution plus Company matching contributions on a portion of employee contributions.
 The ERSP was adopted effective January 1, 2015 for those executives who are not participants in the SORP or SERP. The ERSP is a defined contribution plan that allows eligible full-time U.S. employees to defer compensation until a later date and the Company will match a portion of the deferred compensation above the qualified defined contribution compensation and deferral limitations.

 B. Defined Benefit Pension Plans. The Company sponsors the SORP. The SORP is a nonqualified ERISA defined benefit plan pursuant to which the Company will pay supplemental pension benefits to certain key officers upon retirement based upon the officers' years of service and compensation. The SORP was closed to new participants beginning in fiscal year 2015. The Company also sponsors the SERP. The SERP is also a nonqualified ERISA defined benefit plan pursuant to which the Company will pay supplemental pension benefits to certain key executives upon retirement based upon the executives' years of service and compensation. The SERP was closed to new participants beginning in fiscal year 2015.
 The SORP and SERP are effectively funded with assets held in a Rabbi Trust. The assets invested in the Rabbi Trust are to be used in part to fund benefit payments to participants under the terms of the plans. The Rabbi Trust is irrevocable and no portion of the trust funds may be used for any purpose other than the delivery of those assets to the participants, except that assets held in the Rabbi Trust would be subject to the claims of the Company's general creditors in the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the Company. The SORP and SERP are nonqualified plans for federal tax purposes and for purposes of Title I of ERISA. The Rabbi Trust assets had a value of $ 66.4 million at June 30, 2025 and $ 61.8 million at June 30, 2024 and are included in Other non-current assets in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets.

 The Provision for income taxes and effective tax rates for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025 were $ 219.2 million and 20.7 %, compared to $ 179.3 million and 20.4 %, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025 compared to the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024 was primarily driven by an increase in pre-tax income and lower tax benefits from statutory tax incentives, which was partially offset by an increase in discrete tax benefits. The increase in discrete tax benefits was primarily attributable to an increase in the ETB.
 The Provision for income taxes and effective tax rates for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024 were $ 179.3 million and 20.4 %, compared to $ 164.3 million and 20.7 %, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024 compared to the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023 was driven by an increase in discrete tax benefits relative to pre-tax income, primarily attributable to an ETB of $ 12.9 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024 compared to $ 10.4 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023.
 As of June 30, 2025, the Company had approximately $ 826.3 million of accumulated earnings and profits attributable to foreign subsidiaries. The Company considers $ 726.3 million of accumulated earnings attributable to foreign subsidiaries to be permanently reinvested outside the U.S. and has not determined the cost to repatriate such earnings since it is not practicable to calculate the amount of income taxes payable in the event all such foreign earnings are repatriated. The Company does not consider the remaining $ 100.0 million of accumulated earnings to be permanently reinvested outside the U.S. The Company has accrued approximately $ 8.0 million of foreign income and withholding taxes, state income taxes, and tax on exchange gain attributable to such earnings.
 In December 2021, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development ("OECD") adopted model rules for a global framework to impose a 15% global minimum tax referred to as Pillar Two effective for tax years beginning after January 1, 2024. The OECD continues to issue additional guidance on the operation of the model rules. While the United States has not enacted Pillar Two, certain countries in which we operate have adopted their own version of the Pillar Two model rules. Management continues to monitor additional guidance from the OECD and countries which are implementing Pillar Two. Based on current guidance, we believe that our net income, cash flows, or financial condition will not be materially impacted by Pillar Two.

 Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when such differences are expected to reverse. Significant components of the Company's deferred tax assets and liabilities at June 30, 2025 and 2024 were as follows:

 The Company has estimated foreign net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $ 48.7 million as of June 30, 2025 of which $ 6.9 million are subject to expiration in the June 30, 2035 through June 30, 2043 period, and of which $ 41.7 million has an indefinite utilization period. In addition, the Company has estimated U.S. federal net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $ 25.0 million of which $ 9.3 million are subject to expiration in the June 30, 2026 through June 30, 2037 period with the balance of $ 15.7 million having an indefinite utilization period.
 Valuation allowances are recognized to reduce deferred tax assets when it is more likely than not that the Company will not be able to utilize the deferred tax assets of certain subsidiaries to offset future taxable earnings. The Company has recorded valuation allowances of $ 11.2 million and $ 10.8 million at June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The determination as to whether a deferred tax asset will be recognized is made on a jurisdictional basis and is based on the evaluation of historical taxable income or loss, projected future taxable income, carryforward periods, scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities and tax planning strategies. Projected future taxable income is based on expected results and assumptions as to the jurisdiction in which the income will be earned. The assumptions used to project future taxable income require significant judgment and are consistent with the plans and estimates used to manage the underlying businesses.
 In the next twelve months, the Company does not expect a material change to its net reserve balance for unrecognized tax benefits.

 The following table summarizes the activity related to the Company's gross unrecognized tax positions:

 As of June 30, 2025, 2024 and 2023, the net reserve for unrecognized tax positions recorded by the Company that is included in the preceding table of gross unrecognized tax positions was $ 82.6 million, $ 67.3 million, and $ 62.0 million, respectively, and if reversed in full, would favorably affect the effective tax rate by these amounts, respectively.
 During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, the Company adjusted accrued interest by $ 3.5 million and recognized a total liability for interest on unrecognized tax positions of $ 7.8 million; in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, the Company adjusted accrued interest by $ 0.1 million and recognized a total liability for interest on unrecognized tax positions of $ 4.2 million; in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, the Company adjusted accrued interest by $ 0.3 million and recognized a total liability for interest on unrecognized tax positions of $ 4.1 million.
 The Company is regularly subject to examination of its income tax returns by U.S. Federal, state and foreign income tax authorities. The tax years that are currently open and could be subject to income tax audits for U.S. federal and most state and local jurisdictions are fiscal years ending June 30, 2021 through June 30, 2025, and for Canadian operations that could be subject to audit in Canada, fiscal years ending June 30, 2021 through June 30, 2025. A change in the assessment of the outcomes of such matters could materially impact our Consolidated Financial Statements.

 Litigation
 Broadridge or its subsidiaries are subject to various claims and legal matters that arise in the normal course of business (referred to as "Litigation"). The Company establishes reserves for Litigation and other loss contingencies when it is both probable that a loss will occur, and the amount of such loss can reasonably be estimated. For certain Litigation matters for which the Company does not believe it probable that a loss will occur at this time, the Company is able to estimate a range of reasonably possible losses in excess of established reserves. Management currently estimates an aggregate range of reasonably possible losses for such matters of up to $ 5.0 million in excess of any established reserves. The Litigation matters underlying the estimated range will change from time to time, and it is reasonably possible that the actual results may vary significantly from this estimate. The Company's management currently believes that resolution of any outstanding legal matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations. However, legal matters are subject to inherent uncertainties and there exists the possibility that the ultimate resolution of these matters could have a material adverse impact on the Company's financial position and results of operations in the period in which any such effects are recorded.

 Plan Management Corp. Claim
 Paramount Financial Communications, Inc. d/b/a Plan Management Corp. ("Plan Management") and Jonathan Miller filed a complaint on January 28, 2015 in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. Plan Management claimed that Broadridge Investor Communication Solutions, Inc. ("BRICS") breached a marketing agreement between BRICS and Plan Management and Mr. Miller asserted a fraud claim. In August 2024, Broadridge settled the matter for $ 11.0 million and provided an incremental accrual of $ 10.3 million in the fourth quarter of the 2024 fiscal year. The final payment related to the settlement was made by Broadridge during the second fiscal quarter of the 2025 fiscal year, and no further liability remains.
 Broadridge Customer Communications ("BRCC") Machine Operator Claim
 A law firm representing a machine operator currently employed by BRCC, a business within the ICS segment in Edgewood, New York sought compensation under the Fair Labor Standards Act and New York Labor Law on behalf of the machine operator and a proposed class of machine operators. During the third quarter of the 2024 fiscal year, Broadridge agreed to settle the matter for $ 9.9 million and provided an incremental accrual of $ 8.2 million. The settlement has been approved by the court. The payment related to the settlement was made by Broadridge during the fourth fiscal quarter of the 2025 fiscal year, and no further liability remains.
 Other
 It is not the Company's business practice to enter into off-balance sheet arrangements. However, the Company is exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates that could impact its financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. The Company manages its exposure to these market risks through its regular operating and financing activities and, when deemed appropriate, through the use of derivative financial instruments.

 In January 2022, the Company executed a series of cross-currency swap derivative contracts with an aggregate notional amount of 880.0 million which are designated as net investment hedges to hedge a portion of its net investment in its subsidiaries whose functional currency is the Euro. The cross-currency swap derivative contracts are agreements to pay fixed-rate interest in Euros and receive fixed-rate interest in U.S. Dollars, thereby effectively converting a portion of the Company's U.S. Dollar denominated fixed-rate debt into Euro denominated fixed-rate debt. The cross-currency swaps mature in May 2031 to coincide with the maturity of the Fiscal 2021 Senior Notes. Accordingly, foreign currency transaction gains or losses on the qualifying net investment hedge instruments are recorded as foreign currency translation within other comprehensive income (loss), net in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income and will remain in Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in the Consolidated Balance Sheets until the sale or complete liquidation of the underlying foreign subsidiary. At June 30, 2025, the Company's position on the cross-currency swaps was a liability of $ 24.6 million, and is recorded as part of Other non-current liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets with the offsetting amount recorded as part of Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax. The Company has elected the spot method of accounting whereby the net interest savings from the cross-currency swaps is recognized as a reduction in interest expense in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Earnings.
 In May 2021, the Company settled a forward treasury lock agreement that was designated as a cash flow hedge, for a pre-tax loss of $ 11.0 million, after which the final settlement loss is being amortized into Interest expense, net ratably over the 10-year term of the Fiscal 2021 Senior Notes. The expected amount of the existing loss that will be amortized into earnings before income taxes within the next twelve months is approximately $ 1.1 million.
 In the normal course of business, the Company enters into contracts in which it makes representations and warranties that relate to the performance of the Company's products and services. The Company does not expect any material losses related to such representations and warranties, or collateral arrangements.
 The Company's business process outsourcing and mutual fund processing services are performed by Broadridge Business Process Outsourcing, LLC ("BBPO"), an indirect subsidiary, which is a broker-dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. ("FINRA"). Although BBPO's FINRA membership agreement allows it to engage in clearing and the retailing of corporate securities in addition to mutual fund retailing on a wire order basis, BBPO does not clear customer transactions, process any retail business or carry customer accounts. As a registered broker-dealer and member of FINRA, BBPO is subject to the Uniform Net Capital Rule 15c3-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which requires BBPO to maintain a minimum net capital amount. At June 30, 2025, BBPO was in compliance with this net capital requirement.
 In addition, Matrix Trust Company, a subsidiary of the Company, is a Colorado State non-depository trust company and National Securities Clearing Corporation trust member, whose primary business is to provide cash agent, custodial and directed trustee services to institutional customers, and investment management services to collective investment trust funds. As a result, Matrix Trust Company is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the Colorado Division of Banking and the Arizona Department of Financial Institutions, as well as the National Securities Clearing Corporation. Specific capital requirements that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items, when applicable, must be met. At June 30, 2025, Matrix Trust Company was in compliance with its capital requirements.

 NOTE 21. FINANCIAL DATA BY SEGMENT
 The Company operates in two reportable segments: Investor Communication Solutions and Global Technology and Operations. See Note 1, "Basis of Presentation" for a further description of the Company's reportable segments.
 The Company's chief operating decision maker is the Chief Executive Officer ("CEO"). The chief operating decision maker utilizes earnings before income taxes, to make decisions on resource allocation, including investment of profits, potential acquisitions, or return of capital. The chief operating decision maker does not review assets and capital expenditures in evaluating the results of the Company's segments, therefore such information is not presented.

 NOTE 22. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
 In July 2025, Broadridge announced the proposed acquisition of Acolin Group Holdco Limited ("Acolin"). Acolin is a European provider of cross-border fund distribution and regulatory services. The total purchase price is approximately $ 70 million plus an additional contingent consideration liability. The acquisition is expected to close in the first half of Broadridge's 2026 fiscal year, subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals. Acolin will be included in the Company's ICS reportable segment.
 On August 4, 2025, the Company's Board of Directors approved an increase in the Company's quarterly cash dividend by $ 0.095 per share to $ 0.975 per share, an increase in the expected annual dividend amount from $ 3.52 to $ 3.90 per share. The declaration and payment of future dividends to holders of the Company's common stock will be at the discretion of the Company's Board of Directors, and will depend upon many factors, including the Company's financial condition, earnings, capital requirements of its businesses, legal requirements, regulatory constraints, industry practice, and other factors that the Board of Directors deems relevant.

 ITEM 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
 None.

 ITEM 9A. Controls and Procedures
 Management Report
 Attached as Exhibits 31.1 and 31.2 to this Form 10-K are certifications of Broadridge's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, which are required by Rule 13a-14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). This "Controls and Procedures" section should be read in conjunction with the Deloitte & Touche LLP audit and attestation of the Company's internal control over financial reporting that appears in Item 8. "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" in this Annual Report on Form 10-K and is hereby incorporated herein by reference.
 Management's Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
 Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer as of June 30, 2025, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act. The Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2025 were effective to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in reports filed under the Exchange Act is (i) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and (ii) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure.
 Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 It is the responsibility of Broadridge's management to establish and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance to Broadridge's management and board of directors regarding the preparation of reliable financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
 Broadridge's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of Broadridge; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of Broadridge are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of Broadridge; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding the prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of Broadridge's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements of Broadridge.
 Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation.
 Management has performed an assessment of the effectiveness of Broadridge's internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2025 based upon criteria set forth in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Based on this assessment, management determined that Broadridge's internal control over financial reporting was effective as of June 30, 2025.
 Deloitte & Touche LLP, the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, has audited the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting and has expressed an unqualified opinion in their report on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting, which appears in Item 8. "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

 No change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2025 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 ITEM 9B. Other Information
 On May 14, 2025, the Company's Chief Executive Officer, Timothy C. Gokey, adopted a Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement (the "Gokey 10b5-1 Plan") for the sale of securities of the Company.

The Gokey 10b5-1 Plan will expire on February 13, 2026.
 The Gokey 10b5-1 Plan is intended to satisfy the affirmative defense of Rule 10b5-1(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
