Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

 

Subsequent to our October 23, 2013 filing on Form 8-K furnishing our third-quarter 2013 earnings release, we made a correction to the purchase price allocation related to our December 28, 2012 acquisition of certain credit services business assets and operations of CSC Credit Services Inc. (CSC Credit Services Acquisition), which had the effect of increasing amortizable acquisition-related intangible assets and reducing non-amortizable acquisition-related intangible assets. As a result of the adjustments made to our Consolidated Balance Sheet, additional amortization expense of $7.7 million ($4.8 million, net of tax) was recorded in the third quarter of 2013, to adjust year-to-date amortization expense to an amount consistent with the amortizing of the adjusted purchased intangible assets since the date of the CSC Credit Services Acquisition. A reconciliation of certain balances from the Consolidated Statements of Income in the Form 8-K filed on October 23, 2013 to the corresponding balances in the Form 10-Q filed on November 6, 2013 is presented in Exhibit 99.1. The adjustment had no impact to cash provided by operating activities, or, on a non-GAAP basis, to adjusted EPS attributable to Equifax, excluding the impact of acquisition-related amortization expense, net of associated tax impacts. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is presented in the Exhibit 99.1. The information in Exhibit 99.1 shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
