Equifax: Further Validation That Near-Term Performance Is Extremely Uncertain
I maintain my Hold rating on Equifax due to limited near-term visibility despite strong 2Q25 results and compelling long-term cloud and data strategies. 2Q25 saw impressive broad-based growth, especially in US mortgage activity and product innovation, highlighting the benefits of Equifax's cloud transformation. Management's cautious tone, unchanged FY25 guidance, and a guide-down in EWS signal ongoing macro uncertainty and potential headwinds for the second half.
