Fidelity National Information Services, Inc. 8-K

What Happened

• On January 9, 2026, Fidelity National Information Services, Inc. (FIS) completed the transactions under agreements dated April 17, 2025: FIS acquired the Issuer Solutions business from Global Payments Inc. and, concurrently, sold all of its equity interests in Worldpay Holdco, LLC.
• FIS exchanged its Worldpay interest plus approximately $7.7 billion in cash to acquire the Issuer Solutions Business. The cash amount represents the difference between the purchase prices and is subject to customary post‑closing adjustments.

Key Details

• Closing date: January 9, 2026; transaction agreements signed April 17, 2025.
• Cash paid by FIS (approx.): $7.7 billion (subject to post‑closing adjustments).
• Valuations used: Worldpay enterprise value basis $24.25 billion; Issuer Solutions enterprise value basis $13.5 billion (each adjusted for cash, debt and working capital at closing).
• Global Payments completed purchase of the remaining Worldpay equity concurrently under a related agreement; FIS no longer holds equity in Worldpay.
• FIS issued a press release on January 12, 2026 announcing the closing (Exhibit 99.1 to the 8‑K).

Why It Matters

• The deal materially changes FIS’s asset mix: it adds the Issuer Solutions business and removes FIS’s equity stake in Worldpay. That could shift the company’s revenue and business profile going forward.
• The transaction involved a significant cash component (~$7.7B) and is subject to post‑closing adjustments, so final cash flow impact may change.
• Investors should review FIS’s 8‑K and press release for further details and monitor subsequent disclosures (including any post‑closing purchase price adjustments and financial statements related to the acquired business).
