(1)       Basis of Presentation

The unaudited financial information included in this report includes the accounts of FIS and its subsidiaries prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. All adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. This report should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. 2019.

The preparation of these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported periods. ActualThe inputs into management’s critical and significant accounting estimates consider the economic impact of the outbreak of the novel coronavirus ("COVID-19") and the subsequently declared COVID-19 pandemic ("the pandemic") by the World Health Organization on March 11, 2020. The extent to which the pandemic further affects our financial statements will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and are difficult to predict, including, but not limited to, the duration and spread of the pandemic, its severity, the actions to contain the virus or treat its impact, and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume. Accordingly, our future results could differ from thosebe materially affected by changes in our estimates.

Certain reclassifications have been made in the 2018 Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)2019 consolidated financial statements to conform to the classifications used in 2019.2020. Amounts in tables in the financial statements and accompanying footnotes may not sum due to rounding.

We reportOn July 31, 2019, FIS completed the acquisition of Worldpay, and Worldpay’s results of our operations and financial position are included in three reportingthe consolidated financial statements from and after the date of acquisition.
FIS reports its financial performance based on the following segments: Integrated FinancialMerchant Solutions, (“IFS”), Global FinancialBanking Solutions, (“GFS”)Capital Market Solutions, and Corporate and Other. As FIS continues to execute on its integration workflows and optimize its portfolio of assets, it reclassified certain non-strategic businesses from the Merchant Solutions and Banking Solutions segments into the Corporate and Other (seesegment in the quarter ended March 31, 2020, and recast all prior-period segment information presented. These operations represented less than 2% of first quarter 2020 revenue. See Note 13).12 for a summary of each segment.

(2)      Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

(a)Change in Accounting Policy
Change in Accounting Policy

The Company adopted FASB Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 842,326, LeasesFinancial Instruments - Credit Losses ("Topic 326"),with an initial applicationadoption date of January 1, 2019.2020. As a result, the Company has changed its accounting policy for leases.allowance for credit losses. The accounting policy pursuant to Topic 842326 for operating leasescredit losses is disclosed below. The primary impactadoption of adopting Topic 842 is the establishment326 resulted in an immaterial cumulative effect adjustment recorded in retained earnings as of a right-of-use ("ROU") model that requires a lessee to recognize ROU assets and lease liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet for operating leases.January 1, 2020.

Allowance for Credit Losses

The Company applied Topic 842 usingmonitors trade receivable balances including contract assets as well as other receivables and estimates the effective date method; consequently, financial information wasallowance for lifetime expected credit losses. Estimates of expected credit losses are based on historical collection experience and other factors, including those related to current market conditions and events.

While the COVID-19 pandemic did not updated andresult in a significant increase in the disclosures required under the new standard were not provided for dates and periods before January 1, 2019. For transition purposes,Company’s expected credit loss allowance recorded as of March 31, 2020, the Company elected the "package of practical expedients," which permits the Company not to reassess under the new standard prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs. The Company also elected the practical expedient not to separate lease and non-lease components. The Company did not elect the use-of-hindsight practical expedient nor the short-term lease recognition exemption allowed under the new standard.

The adoption of ASC 842 resulted in the recognition of operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet (Unaudited) of $442 million and $446 million, respectively, on January 1, 2019. The standard did not impact the Company’s results of operations or cash flows.

(b)Operating Leases

The Company leases certain of its property, primarily real estate, under operating leases. Operating lease ROU assets are included in other noncurrent assets, and operating lease liabilities are included in accounts payable, accrued and other liabilities and other long-term liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited). ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Operating lease ROU assets also include any prepaid lease payments and exclude lease incentives received. The Company uses an incremental borrowing rate based on information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. Lease terms may include options to extend, generally ranging from one to five years, or to terminate the lease whenbelieves it is reasonably certainpossible that future developments related to the Company willeconomic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic could have a material impact on management’s estimates.

exercise that option. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Lease agreements may include lease and related non-lease components, which are accounted for as a single lease component. Additionally, for certain equipment leases, the Company applies a portfolio approach to effectively account for the operating lease ROU assets and liabilities.

(3)      Acquisition of WorldpayAcquisitions 

On March 17, 2019, FIS, Wrangler Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of FIS (“Merger Sub”), and Worldpay Inc. (“Worldpay”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “merger agreement”) pursuant to which FIS would acquire Worldpay through a merger transaction (“Worldpay transaction,” “Transaction” or “ the merger”). Acquisition

On July 31, 2019, FIS completed the Transaction. Through its acquisition of Worldpay FIS is now a global leader in technology, solutions and services for merchants, as well as banks and capital markets.by acquiring 100 percent of Worldpay’s equity. The Worldpay acquisition bringsbrought an integrated technology platform with a comprehensive suite of products and services serving merchants and financial institutions. Worldpay processed over 40 billion transactions annually, supporting more than 300 payment types across 146 countriesinstitutions and 126 currencies. Through the Transaction,provided FIS will havewith enhanced global payment capabilities, robust risk and fraud solutions and advanced data analytics.

Pursuant to the merger agreement, FIS acquired 100 percent of the equity of Worldpay at the closing on July 31, 2019. At the closing, Worldpay shareholders received approximately 289 million shares of FIS common stock and $3.4 billion in cash, using an exchange ratio of 0.9287 FIS shares plus $11.00 in cash for each share of Worldpay common stock. FIS also converted approximately 7 million outstanding Worldpay equity awards into corresponding equity awards with respect to shares of FIS common stock pursuant to an exchange ratio in the merger agreement designed to maintain the intrinsic value of the applicable award immediately prior to conversion. In connection with the Transaction, FIS also repaid approximately $7.5 billion in Worldpay debt. The combination of stock and cash valued Worldpay at an enterprise value of approximately $50 billion, including the repayment of Worldpay debt of approximately $7.5 billion. As a result of the Transaction, legacy FIS shareholders own approximately 53 percent and legacy Worldpay shareholders own approximately 47 percent of the combined company on a fully diluted basis. FIS funded the cash portion of the merger consideration, the pay-off of the indebtedness of Worldpay and the payment of transaction-related expenses through a combination of available cash-on-hand and proceeds from debt issuances, including proceeds from concurrent public offerings on May 21, 2019 of Euro-, Pound Sterling-, and U.S. Dollar-denominated senior unsecured notes of FIS and borrowings under the newly established Euro-commercial paper program. See Note 7 for further discussion of these debt issuances.total purchase price was as follows (in millions):

Total purchase price$48,245 
Due to the close proximity in timing of the Transaction closing date and the Company's filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the initial accounting
The acquisition was accounted for theas a business combination is incomplete; therefore, the Company is unable to disclose certain information required byunder FASB ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations ("Topic 805"). We recorded an allocation of the purchase price to Worldpay tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values as of July 31, 2019. The amounts for intangible assets were based on third-party valuations performed. Goodwill was recorded as the residual amount by which the purchase price exceeded the provisional fair value of the net assets acquired. Goodwill consists primarily of expected synergies of combining operations, the acquired workforce, and growth opportunities, none of which qualify as separately identifiable intangible assets. As of March 31, 2020, the Company planshas substantially completed its allocation of the purchase price. The principal open items relate to provide preliminarythe valuation of certain income tax matters and contingencies as management is awaiting additional information to complete its assessment. Estimates have been recorded as of the acquisition date, and updates to these estimates may increase or decrease goodwill.

Pursuant to Topic 805, the financial statements will not be retrospectively adjusted for any provisional amount changes that occur in subsequent periods. Rather, we will recognize any provisional amount adjustments during the reporting period in which the adjustments are determined. We will also be required to record, in the same period’s financial statements, the effect on earnings of changes in depreciation, amortization, or other income effects, if any, as a result of any change to the provisional amounts, calculated as if the accounting had been completed at the acquisition date. We expect to finalize the purchase price allocation information in FIS' Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q foras soon as practicable, but no later than one year from the quarter ending September 30, 2019. acquisition date.

ForThe gross contractual amount of trade receivables acquired was approximately $1,646 million. The difference between that total and the amount reflected above represents our best estimate at the acquisition date of the contractual cash flows not expected to be collected. This difference was derived using Worldpay’s historical bad debts, sales allowances and collection trends.

Intangible assets primarily consist of software, customer relationship assets and trademarks with weighted average estimated useful lives of seven years, ten years and five years, respectively, and fair value amounts assigned of $1,297 million, $13,272 million and $410 million, respectively.

See Note 9 for acquired contingencies resulting from the Worldpay acquisition.

Virtus Acquisition

On January 2, 2020, FIS acquired a majority interest in Virtus Partners ("Virtus"), previously a privately held company that provides high value managed services and technology to the credit and loan market. FIS acquired a 70% voting and financial interest in Virtus with 30% interest retained by the founders of Virtus ("Founders"). The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under Topic 805. We recorded a provisional allocation of the $405 million cash purchase price and the $174 million fair value of redeemable noncontrolling interest to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values, consisting primarily of $254 million in customer relationships and $51 million in software assets. We also recorded $248 million in goodwill for the residual amount by which the purchase price exceeded the provisional fair value of the net assets acquired. Our purchase price allocation is provisional as of March 31, 2020, and we expect to finalize as soon as practicable, but no later than one year from the acquisition date.

We recorded the 30% interest retained by the Founders at the acquisition date as redeemable noncontrolling interest, which is reflected outside of stockholders’ equity on the consolidated balance sheet, given the agreement between FIS and the Founders that provides FIS with a call option and the Founders with a put option requiring FIS to purchase all of the Founders’ retained interest in Virtus at a redemption value determined pursuant to the agreement. The call option and put option are exercisable at any time after two years and three months ended June 30, 2019 (in millions):years, respectively, following the acquisition date. Changes in the estimated redemption value are accreted through equity from the acquisition date to the date the call option becomes exercisable, to the extent the estimated redemption value is greater than the initial redeemable noncontrolling interest value recorded, as adjusted for the Founders’ share of the cumulative impact of net earnings (loss).

Contract Balances

The Company recognized revenue of $188$338 million and $170$321 million during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and $508 million and $452 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019, and 2018, respectively, that was included in the corresponding deferred revenue balance at the beginning of the periods.

Transaction Price Allocated to the Remaining Performance Obligations

As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, approximately $20.0$20.5 billion of revenue is estimated to be recognized in the future primarily from the Company’sBanking Solutions and Capital Market Solutions segments’ remaining unfulfilled performance obligations, which are primarily comprised of recurring account- and volume-based processing services. This excludes the amount of anticipated recurring renewals not yet contractually obligated. The Company expects to recognize approximately 35% of ourthe Banking Solutions and Capital Market Solutions segments’ remaining performance obligations over the next 12 months, approximately another 25% over the next 13 to 24 months, and the balance thereafter.

As permitted by ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, the Company has elected to exclude from this disclosure an estimate for the Merchant Solutions segment, which is primarily comprised of contracts with an original duration of one year or less or variable consideration that meet specific criteria. This segment’s core performance obligations consist of variable consideration under a stand-ready series of distinct days of service, and revenue from the segment’s products and service arrangements are generally billed and recognized as the services are performed. The aggregate fixed consideration portion of customer contracts with an initial contract duration greater than one year is not material.

(1)The amount of goodwill attributable to the acquisitions of Worldpay and $87Virtus, including its allocation to reportable segments, is preliminary and subject to change.

We assess goodwill for impairment on an annual basis during the fourth quarter or more frequently if circumstances indicate potential impairment. We concluded as a result of our fourth quarter 2019 step zero annual impairment tests that it remained more likely than not that the fair value of each of our reporting units continued to exceed their carrying amounts. Due to the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, we evaluated if events and circumstances as of March 31, 2020, indicated potential impairment. We performed a qualitative assessment by examining factors most likely to affect our valuations and considered the impact to our business from the COVID-19 pandemic. The factors examined involve significant use of management judgment and included, among others, (1) forecasted revenue, growth rates, operating margins, and capital expenditures used to calculate estimated future cash flows, (2) future economic and market conditions and (3) the reduction in FIS’ market capitalization.

Based on our interim impairment assessment as of March 31, 2020, we concluded that it remained more likely than not that the fair value of each of our reporting units continued to exceed their carrying amounts; therefore, goodwill was not impaired. However, the Company believes it is reasonably possible that future developments related to the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our Merchant Solutions business, such as an extended duration of the pandemic and/or governmental imposed shutdowns, prolonged economic downturn or recession, or lack of governmental support for recovery, could have a material impact on one or more of the estimates and assumptions used to evaluate goodwill impairment and could result in future goodwill impairment.

Visa Europe and Contingent Value Rights

As part of the Worldpay acquisition, the Company acquired certain assets and liabilities related to the June 2016 Worldpay Group plc (Legacy Worldpay) disposal of its ownership interest in Visa Europe to Visa Inc.  As part of the disposal, Legacy Worldpay received consideration from Visa Inc. in the form of cash and convertible Visa Inc. Series B preferred stock ("preferred stock"), the value of which may be reduced by settlement of potential liabilities relating to ongoing interchange-related litigation involving Visa Europe. Also in connection with the disposal, Legacy Worldpay agreed to pay former Legacy Worldpay owners 90% of the net-of-tax proceeds from the disposal, known as contingent value rights ("CVR"), pending the finalization of the proceeds from disposal, which is expected to occur no later than June 2028, at which time the preferred stock is subject to mandatory conversion into Visa Inc. Class A common stock.

The Company has elected the fair value option under ASC 825, Financial Instruments ("ASC 825"), for measuring its preferred stock asset and related CVR liability. The estimated fair value of the preferred stock and related CVR liability are determined using Level 3-type measurements. Significant inputs into the valuation of the preferred stock include the Visa Inc. Class A common stock price per share and the conversion ratio, which are observable, and an estimate of potential losses that will result from the ongoing litigation involving Visa Europe, which is unobservable. The Company engaged third-party valuation specialists and external counsel to assist management in making the fair value determination for the preferred stock. The fair value of the preferred stock was $320 million and $58$400 million duringat March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, recorded in Other noncurrent assets on the six months ended June 30, 2019consolidated balance sheets.

The fair value of the CVR liability is determined based on 90% of the net-of-tax proceeds from the disposal, including the preferred stock and 2018, respectively, and there were no impairment losses in relation to the costs capitalized forcash consideration. The portion of the period presented.

As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, the outstanding principal balance of the ECP was $1.5 billion, recorded as short-term borrowings on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet (Unaudited). The weighted-average interest rate on the ECP Notes was (0.19)% as of June 30, 2019, resulting in an offset to Interest expense, net. Subsequent to June 30, 2019, and prior to the closing of the Worldpay transaction, FIS issued an additional $1.4 billion in ECP Notes. As of July 31, 2019, the outstanding principal balance of the ECP was $2.9 billion, with a weighted-averageweighted- average interest rate of (0.15)%the Company’s outstanding debt was 1.9%, which will result in an offset to Interest expense, net.

During March 2019, concurrent with the execution of the Worldpay merger agreementinterest rate swaps (see Note 3), FIS secured $9.5 billion of bridge financing commitments to ensure our ability to fund the cash requirements related to the Worldpay transaction. The bridge financing commitments were terminated in full in May 2019 following the (a) amendment of the Restated Credit Agreement to modify certain provisions and covenants of the Revolving Credit Facility and (b) the issuance of the senior notes discussed above.

On December 21, 2018, FIS entered into an interest rate swap that effectively converted the 2024 Euro Notes from a fixed-rate to a floating rate debt obligation. This derivative instrument was designated as a fair value hedge of the debt obligation. The fair value of the interest rate swap was $14 million at June 30, 2019, reflected as an increase in the hedged debt balance.

On September 21, 2018, FIS established a U.S. commercial paper program (the “USCP”) for the issuance and sale of senior, unsecured commercial paper notes (the “USCP Notes”), up to a maximum aggregate amount outstanding at any time of $4.0 billion. On May 29, 2019, FIS increased the capacity on the USCP from $4 billion to $5.5 billion. The USCP Notes have maturities of up to 397 days from the date of issue. As of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the outstanding principal balance of the USCP was $0 million and $250 million, respectively, recorded as short-term borrowings on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (Unaudited)8).

On September 21, 2018, FIS entered into a Seventh Amendment and Restatement Agreement (“Credit Facility Agreement”), which amended and restated FIS’ existing credit agreement (as amended, the “Restated Credit Agreement”). The Credit Facility Agreement increased the revolving credit commitments outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility (“Revolving Credit Facility”) existing under the Restated Credit Agreement from $3.0 billion to $4.0 billion and extended the term of the Restated Credit Agreement to September 21, 2023. On May 29, 2019, FIS entered into an amendment to the Restated Credit Agreement to increase the revolving credit commitments outstanding under the Revolving Credit Facility from $4.0 billion to $5.5 billion. Borrowing under the Revolving Credit Facility will generally be used for general corporate purposes, including backstopping any notes that FIS may issue under the USCP and ECP described above. As of June 30, 2019, the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Credit Facility was $0 million, with $5,497 million of borrowing capacity remaining thereunder (net of $3 million in outstanding letters of credit issued under the Revolving Credit Facility).

The obligations of FIS under the Revolving Credit Facility, USCP, ECP, and under all of its outstanding senior notes rank equal in priority and are unsecured. The Revolving Credit Facility and the senior notes are subject to customary covenants, including, among others, customary events of default, and for the Revolving Credit Facility, a provision allowing for financing related to the acquisition of Worldpay and limitations on the payment of dividends by FIS.

Reliance is vigorously defending the action and believes that it has meritorious defenses. Pre-trial discovery has now been completed. Reliance contends that no breaches of fiduciary duty or prohibited transactions occurred and that the Plan participants suffered no damages. A non-jury trial of the case was conducted in March 2020. At trial, Plaintiffs allegesought damages of approximately $115$127 million against all defendants. A decision in the case is expected in the second half of 2020.

Brazilian Tax Authorities Claims

In 2004, Proservvi Empreendimentos e Servicos, Ltda., the predecessor to Fidelity National Servicos de Tratamento de Documentos e Informatica Ltda. (“Servicos”("Servicos"), a subsidiary of Fidelity National Participacoes Ltda., our former item processing and remittance services operation in Brazil, acquired certain assets and employees and leased certain facilities from the Transpev Group (“Transpev”("Transpev") in Brazil. Transpev’s remaining assets were later acquired by Prosegur, an unrelated third party. When Transpev discontinued its operations after the asset sale to Prosegur, it had unpaid federal taxes and social contributions owing to the Brazilian tax authorities. The Brazilian tax authorities brought a claim against Transpev and beginning in 2012 brought claims against Prosegur and Servicos on the grounds that Prosegur and Servicos were successors in interest to Transpev. To date, the Brazilian tax authorities filed 13 claims against Servicos asserting potential tax liabilities of approximately $14 million. There are potentially 25 additional claims against Transpev/Prosegur for which Servicos is named

as a co-defendant or may be named, but for which Servicos has not yet been served. These additional claims amount to approximately $50 million making the total potential exposure for all 38 claims approximately $64 million. We do not believe a liability for these 38 total claims is probable and, therefore, have not recorded a liability for any of these claims.

Acquired Contingencies (SunGard)- Worldpay

FIS and certainThe Company assumed in the Worldpay acquisition a Tax Receivable Agreement ("TRA") under which the Company agreed to make payments to Fifth Third Bank ("Fifth Third") of its wholly owned subsidiaries acquired SunGard and SunGard Capital Corp. II (collectively, "SunGard") on November 30, 2015 (the "SunGard acquisition"). As part85% of the SunGard acquisition,federal, state, local and foreign income tax benefits realized by the Company became responsibleas a result of certain tax deductions. In December 2019, the Company entered into a Tax Receivable Purchase Addendum (the "Amendment") that provides written call and put options (collectively "the options") to terminate certain estimated obligations under the TRA in exchange for fixed cash payments.

The remaining TRA obligations not subject to the Amendment are based on the cash savings realized by the Company by comparing the actual income tax liability of the Company to the amount of such taxes the Company would have been required to pay had there been no deductions related to the tax attributes. Under the TRA, in certain contingenciesspecified circumstances, such as certain changes of control, the Company may be required to make payments in excess of such cash savings.

Obligations recorded in our consolidated financial statements pursuant to the TRA are based on estimates of future deductions and future tax rates and, in the case of the obligations subject to the Amendment, reflect management’s expectation that were assumed.the options will be exercised. In January 2020, the Company exercised its first call option pursuant to the Amendment, which will result in fixed cash payments to Fifth Third of $42 million. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet (Unaudited)timing and/or amount of aggregate payments due under the TRA may vary based on a number of factors, including the exercise of options, the amount and timing of taxable income the Company generates in the future and the tax rate then applicable, the use of loss carryforwards and amortizable basis. Each reporting period, the Company evaluates the assumptions underlying the TRA obligations.

The consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2019March 31, 2020, includes a total liability of $46$563 million largelyrelating to the TRA. The following table summarizes our estimated payment obligation timing under the TRA as of March 31, 2020 (in millions):

Chargeback Liability

Through services offered in our Merchant Solutions segment, the Company is exposed to losses from merchant-related chargebacks. A chargeback occurs when a dispute between a cardholder and a merchant, including a claim for non-delivery of the product or service by the merchant, is not resolved in favor of the merchant and the transaction is charged back to the merchant resulting in a refund of the purchase price to the cardholder. If the Company is unable to collect this chargeback amount from the merchant due to closure, bankruptcy or other reasons, the Company bears the loss for the refund paid to the cardholder. The risk of chargebacks is typically greater for those merchants that promise future delivery of goods and services rather than delivering goods or rendering services at the time of payment. As a result of the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company believes it is reasonably possible that it has incurred or may incur significant losses related to tax compliance matters.future chargebacks. Due to the unprecedented nature of the pandemic and the numerous current and future uncertainties that may impact any potential chargeback losses, and considering that the Company has no historical experience with similar uncertainties, a reasonable estimate of the possible accrual for losses or range of losses cannot be made.

Indemnifications and Warranties

The Company generally indemnifies its clients, subject to certain limitations and exceptions, against damages and costs resulting from claims of patent, copyright, or trademark infringement associated solely with its customers'customers’ use of the Company'sCompany’s software applications or services. Historically, the Company has not made any material payments under such indemnifications but continues to monitor the conditions that are subject to the indemnifications to identify whether it is probable that a loss has occurred, andin which case it would recognize any such losses when they are estimable. In addition, the Company warrants to customers that its software operates substantially in accordance with the software specifications.

We have grown organically, as well as through acquisitions, which have contributed critical applicationssolutions and services that complement or enhance our existing offerings, diversifying our revenue by customer, geography and service offering. We evaluateFIS evaluates possible acquisitions that might contribute to our growth or performance on an ongoing basis.

On March 17, 2019, FIS entered into a merger agreement to acquire Worldpay. On We also develop new solutions which enhance our client offerings. Through our acquisition of Worldpay on July 31, 2019, FIS completed the acquisition of Worldpay. See Note 3 to the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) for additional discussion. Through its acquisition of Worldpay, FIS is now a global leader in financial technology, solutions and services for merchants, as well as for banks and capital markets. The Worldpay acquisition brings an integrated technology platform with a comprehensive suiteSee Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements for additional discussion of products and services serving merchants and financial institutions.

FIS reports its financial performance based on threethe following segments: Integrated FinancialMerchant Solutions (“IFS”("Merchant"), Global FinancialBanking Solutions (“GFS”("Banking"), Capital Market Solutions ("Capital Markets") and Corporate and Other. As FIS continues to execute on its integration workflows and optimize its portfolio of assets, it reclassified certain non-strategic businesses from Merchant and Banking into Corporate and Other in the quarter ended March 31, 2020 and recast all prior-period segment information presented. A description of theseour segments is included in Note 1312 to the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited).consolidated financial statements. Revenue by segment and the adjusted EBITDA of our segments are discussed below in Segment Results of Operations. We are in the process of updating our operating segments as a result of the Worldpay transaction.

Business Trends and Conditions

Our revenue is primarily derived from a combination of recurring technology and processing services, payment transaction fees, professional services and software license fees. The majority of our revenue has historically been recurring and has been provided under multi-year Banking and Capital Markets contracts that contribute relative stability to our revenue stream. These services, in general, are considered critical to our clients'clients’ operations. Although Merchant has a lesser percentage of multi-year contracts, substantially all of its revenue is recurring. A considerable portion of our recurring revenue is derived from transaction processing fees that fluctuate with the level of accounts and card transactions, among other variable measures, associated with consumer, commercial and capital markets activity. Professional services revenue is typically non-recurring, and salesthough recognition often occurs over time rather than at a point in time. Sales of software licenses are typically non-recurring with recognition at a point in time and are less predictable,predictable.

As U.S. and foreign governmental authorities imposed social distancing, shelter-in-place or total lock-down orders due to the COVID-19 pandemic, spending has declined, most notably in travel, restaurants, entertainment, and retail, resulting in a portionrapid deterioration in payments volume and transaction trends on a worldwide basis beginning in March 2020, which adversely impacted, and continues to adversely impact, revenue in our payments businesses that earn transaction-based fees. Revenue is

primarily being impacted by declines in payment processing volumes within our Merchant Solutions segment as discretionarywell as lower issuer processing, debit network and account transaction volumes within our Banking Solutions segment. In addition, we may experience a slowdown in corporate decision-making on sales and implementation of our solutions, as well as on software licenses and professional services. These changes in spending byappear likely to adversely affect our clients.business, results of operations and financial condition in the second quarter of 2020 and possibly beyond, although the magnitude and duration of their ultimate effect is not possible to predict. However, we have continued to prioritize investments and products that help address the needs of our clients in order to increase the Company’s potential to resume strong revenue growth following the pandemic.


In addition, we have recently extended higher-than-usual levels of credit to our merchant clients as part of funds settlement in connection with payments to their customers, for, among other things, refunds for cancelled trips and events. We are exposed to losses if our merchant customers cease operations and are unable to repay the credit we have extended or their liability for chargebacks. This increase in extended credit or potential liability for chargebacks did not have a material impact on our liquidity or results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2020, although certain of our merchant clients have ceased doing business, at least for a period of time, and we continue to monitor their impact on our liquidity, results of operations and financial condition.

We continue to assist financial institutions in migrating to outsourced integrated technology solutions to improve their profitability and address increasing and ongoing regulatory requirements. As a provider of outsourcing solutions, we benefit from multi-year recurring revenue streams, which help moderate the effects of broader year-to-year economic and market changes that otherwise might have a larger impact on our results of operations. We believe our integrated solutions and outsourced services are well positionedwell-positioned to address this outsourcing trend across the markets we serve. However, delays in implementation of our solutions caused by the uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic may temporarily slow revenue growth to an extent not yet determined.

Over the last threefour years, we have moved approximately 50%70% of our server compute to our FIS cloud located in our strategic data centers, and our goal is to increase that percentage to 65%73% by the end of 20192020 and approximately 80% by the end of 2021. This allows us to further enhance security for our clients’ data and increases the flexibility and speed with which we can provide services and solutions to our clients, eventually at lesser cost. Concurrently, we have continued to consolidate our data centers, closing 10seven additional data centers in 2018.2019. Our consolidation has generated a savings for the Company as of year-end 2018 exceeding $100the end of the first quarter of 2020 of approximately $210 million in run raterun-rate annual expense reduction since the program’s inception in mid-2016. We plan to close and consolidate approximately 2013 more data centers by the end of 2021, which should result in additional run raterun-rate annual expense reduction of approximately $150$40 million.

We continue to invest in modernization, innovation and integrated solutions and services in order to meet the demands of the markets we serve and compete with global banks, internationalfinancial and other technology providers, and disruptiveemerging technology innovators. We invest both organically and through investment opportunities in companies building complementary technologies in the financial services space. Our internal efforts in research and development activities have related primarily to the modernization of our proprietary core systems in each of our segments, design and development of next generation digital and innovative solutions and development of processing systems and related software applications and risk management platforms. We have increased our investments in these areas in each of the last three years. Our innovation efforts have recently resulted in bringing to market our Modern Banking Platform that is among the first cloud-native core banking solutions. We expect to continue our practice of investing an appropriate level of resources to maintain, enhance and extend the functionality of our proprietary systems and existing software applications, to develop new and innovative software applications and systems to address emerging technology trends in response to the needs of our clients and to enhance the capabilities of our outsourcing infrastructure.

We have continued to innovate to help our clients through the COVID-19 pandemic. In particular, we have leveraged our Real Time Lending service to help banking clients process loans under the CARES Act and are assisting a number of U.S. states to enable online purchasing of food for Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program ("SNAP") benefit recipients under a pilot program run by the U.S. Department of Agriculture ("USDA"). While this does not materially impact our revenue, these steps show the ability to leverage our technology and solutions during the pandemic. We have also helped our clients and communities through this period by providing virtual terminals, temporarily eliminating minimum transaction amounts and waiving certain fees for small merchants, contributing masks and supplies to the communities in which we do business, and donating prepaid cards to military families and children in need.

FIS has been carefully monitoring the effects of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic as conditions continue to evolve. Since the beginning of the pandemic, the Company has taken several actions to protect its employees while maintaining business continuity, including implementing its comprehensive Pandemic Plan. The Pandemic Plan includes site-specific service and

client plans as well as travel restrictions, medical response protocols, work-from-home strategies and enhanced cleaning within our locations. As a critical infrastructure provider for the global economy, FIS continues to operate around the world to serve
our clients.

The spread of COVID-19 has caused us to modify our business practices (including restricting employee travel, developing social distancing plans for our employees and cancelling physical participation in meetings, events and conferences), and we may take further actions as may be required by government authorities or as we determine are in the best interests of our employees, clients and business partners. Where government lock-downs have prohibited or slowed down certain functions at specific locations, FIS has outfitted employees to provide certain of such services from home or transferred such work to other locations. Additionally for its employees, the Company has expanded sick leave for employees affected by COVID-19, expanded telemedicine internationally, provided special pay for certain employees involved in critical infrastructure who could not work from home, and expanded its FIS Cares program to benefit employees in need around the world. We are also taking several actions to manage discretionary expenses, including limiting travel, reducing incentive compensation and decreasing third-party spending as well as accelerating automation and functional alignment across the organization.

Consumer preference continues to shift from traditional branch banking services to digital banking solutions, and our clients seek to provide a single integrated banking experience through their branch, mobile, internet and voice banking channels. The COVID-19 pandemic appears to be accelerating digitization of banking and payment services by requiring, in many cases, banks and bank customers to transact through digital channels. We have been providing our large regional banking customers in the U.S. with Digital One, an integrated digital banking platform, and are now adding functionality and offering Digital One to our community bank clients to provide a consistent, omnichannel experience for consumers of banking services across self-service channels like mobile banking and online banking, as well as supporting channels for bank staff operating in bank branches and contact centers. The uniform customer experience will extendextends to support a broad range of financial services including opening new accounts, servicing of existing accounts, providing money movement services, and personal financial management, as well as a broad range of other consumer, small business and commercial banking capabilities. Digital One will beis integrated into and will extendseveral of the core banking platforms offered by FIS and willis also be offered to customers of non-FIS core banking systems.

We continue to see demand for innovative solutions in the payments market that will deliver faster, more convenient payment solutions in mobile channels, internet applications and cards. We believe digital payments will grow and partially replace existing payment tender volumes over time as consumers and merchants embrace the convenience, incremental services and benefits. Additionally, new formidable non-traditional payments competitors and large merchants are investing in and innovating digital payment technologies to address the emerging market opportunity, and it is unclear the extent to which particular technologies or services will succeed. We believe the growth of digital payments continues to present both an opportunity and a risk to us as the market develops. Although we cannot predict which digital payment technologies or solutions will be successful, we cautiously believe our client relationships, payments infrastructure and experience, adapted solutions and emerging solutions are well positioned to maintain or grow our clients' existing payment volumes, which is our focus.

We anticipate consolidation within the banking industry will continue, primarily in the form of merger and acquisition activity among financial institutions, which we believe as a whole is detrimental to our business.the profitability of the financial technology industry. However, consolidation resulting from specific merger and acquisition transactions may be beneficial to our business. When consolidations of financial institutions occur, merger partners often operate systems obtained from competing service providers. The newly formed entity generally makes a determination to migrate its core and payments systems to a single platform. When a financial institution processing client is involved in a consolidation, we may benefit by their expanding the use of our services if such services are chosen to survive the consolidation and to support the newly combined entity. Conversely, we may lose revenue if we are providing services to both entities, or if a client of ours is involved in a consolidation and our services are not chosen to survive the consolidation and to support the newly combined entity. It is also possible that larger financial institutions resulting from consolidation may have greater leverage in negotiating terms or could decide to perform in-houseinhouse some or all of the services

that we currently provide or could provide. We seek to mitigate the risks of consolidations by offering other competitive services to take advantage of specific opportunities at the surviving company.

In certain of the international markets in which we do business, we continue to experience growth on a constant currency basis. Demand for our solutions may also continue to be driven in developing countries by government-led financial inclusion policies aiming to reduce the unbanked population and by growth in the middle classes in these markets driving the need for more sophisticated banking solutions. The majority of our international revenue is generated by clients in the United Kingdom,U.K., Germany, Brazil, Germany,India, Canada India, and Switzerland. For the full year of 2019, we anticipate an approximate $80 million adverse impact to revenue due to foreign currency translation, although the actual amount of impact is uncertain due to the many factors that affect exchange rates.Australia.

On December 31, 2018, FIS closed the transaction we previously announced to unwind the Brazilian Venture with Banco Bradesco.  Under this agreement, the Brazilian Venture spun-off certain assets of the business that also provide services to non-Bradesco clients to a new wholly-owned FIS subsidiary.  This subsidiary entered into a long-term commercial agreement to provide current and new services to Banco Bradesco effective January 1, 2019 that include software licensing, maintenance, application management, card portfolio migration, business process outsourcing, fraud management and professional services. As a result of the transaction, Banco Bradesco owns 100%Worldpay acquisition completed on July 31, 2019, FIS is now a global leader in the merchant solutions industry, with differentiated solutions throughout the payments market, including capabilities in global eCommerce, U.S. integrated payments, and enterprise payments and data security solutions in business-to-business ("B2B") payments. These solutions bring together advanced payments technologies at each stage of the entity that previously housed the Brazilian Venture and its remaining assets that relatetransaction life cycle. The Worldpay acquisition broadened our solution portfolio, enabling us to card processing for Banco Bradesco, which Banco Bradesco will perform internally.  The transaction is expected to result in an annualized reduction in FIS’ reported revenue of approximately $225 million.  In addition, it resulted in impairment charges of $95 millionsignificantly expand our merchant acquiring solutions, including our capabilities in the thirdgrowing eCommerce and integrated payments segments of the market, which are in demand among our merchant clients as they look for ways to integrate technology into their business models. The combination also favorably impacts our business mix with a greater concentration in higher growth and higher margin services. The Worldpay acquisition significantly increased our revenue as well as our amortization expense for acquired intangibles and our acquisition, integration and other costs. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, our merchant processing revenues have been adversely impacted, particularly in the areas of airlines, hospitality, restaurants and retail, and we expect will continue to be adversely impacted until the economic effects of the pandemic subside.

Following the Worldpay acquisition, we are focused on completing post-merger integration to achieve potential incremental revenue opportunities and expense efficiencies created by the combination of the two companies. We have a history of successfully integrating the operations and technology platforms of acquired companies, including winding down legacy environments and consolidating platforms from other acquisitions into our environment. Based on prior integration experience, we developed integration plans to achieve the potential benefits created by the Worldpay acquisition. As of the end of the first quarter of 2018. 2020, our achievement of expense and revenue synergies is ahead of schedule.

We continue to see demand for innovative solutions in the payments market that will deliver faster, more convenient payment solutions in mobile channels, internet applications and cards. The payment processing industry is adopting new technologies, developing new products and services, evolving new business models and being affected by new market entrants and by an evolving regulatory environment. As merchants and financial institutions respond to these changes by seeking services to help them enhance their own offerings to consumers, including the ability to accept card-not-present ("CNP") payments in eCommerce and mobile environments as well as contactless cards and mobile wallets at the point-of-sale, FIS believes that payment processors will seek to develop additional capabilities in order to serve clients’ evolving needs. In order to facilitate this expansion, we believe that payment processors will need to enhance their technology platforms so they can deliver these capabilities and differentiate their offerings from other providers. The COVID-19 pandemic appears to be accelerating digitization of payment services by requiring, in many cases, businesses and consumers to transact through digital channels.

We believe that these market changes present both an opportunity and a risk for us, and we cannot predict which emerging technologies or solutions will be successful. However, FIS believes that payment processors, like FIS, that have scalable, integrated business models, provide solutions across the payment processing value chain and utilize broad distribution capabilities will be best positioned to enable emerging alternative electronic payment technologies. Further, FIS believes that its depth of capabilities and breadth of distribution will enhance its position as emerging payment technologies are adopted by merchants and other businesses. FIS’ ability to partner with non-financial institution enterprises, such as mobile payment providers, internet, retail and social media companies, could create attractive growth opportunities as these new entrants seek to become more active participants in the development of alternative electronic payment technologies and to facilitate the convergence of retail, online, mobile and social commerce applications.

Globally, attacks on information technology systems continue to grow in frequency, complexity and sophistication. This is a trend we expect to continue. Such attacks have become a point of focus for individuals, businesses and governmental entities. The objectives of these attacks include, among other things, gaining unauthorized access to systems to facilitate financial fraud, disrupt operations, cause denial of service events, corrupt data, and steal non-public information. These circumstances present both a threat and an opportunity for FIS. As part of our business, we electronically receive, process, store and transmit a wide range of confidential information, including sensitive customer information and personal consumer data. We also operate payment, cash access and prepaid card systems.

FIS remains focused on making strategic investments in information security to protect our clients and our information systems. This includesThese investments include both capital expenditures and operating expense onrelated to hardware, software, personnel and consulting services. We also participate in industry and governmental initiatives to improve information security for our clients. Through the expertise we have gained with this ongoing focus and involvement, we have developed fraud, security, risk management and compliance solutions to target this growth opportunity in the financial services industry.

Comparisons of three-month and six-month periods ended June 30,March 31, 2020 and 2019 and 2018

Revenue

Revenue increased $6$1,021 million, or 0.3%50%, duringfor the three-month period ended March 31, 2020 as compared to 2019 primarily due to (1) incremental revenues from the Worldpay acquisition; (2) increased network volumes and digital banking growth in (1) all IFS divisions; (2) GFS bankingBanking; and payments solutions(3) growth in North America; (3) institutionalCapital Markets driven by increased managed services, brokerage volumes, license execution, and wholesale solutions; and (4) GFS Latin America payments.the purchase of the majority interest in Virtus Partners. These increases were offset by (1) the unwinding of the Brazilian Venture; (2) the reduction in revenue from the sale of the Certegy Check Services business unit in North America during the third quarter of 2018; (3) the reduction in revenue from the sale of Reliance Trust Company of Delaware during the fourth quarter of 2018; and (4) unfavorable foreign currency impact of $18$16 million primarily driven by a stronger U.S. Dollar versus the Brazilian Real and British Pound Sterling and Euro.Sterling.

Revenue decreased $3 million, or 0.1%, during the six-month period, primarily due to (1) the unwinding of the Brazilian Venture, offset in part by the new commercial agreement with Banco Bradesco and growth in GFS Latin America payments; (2) the reduction in revenue from the sale of the Certegy Check Services business unit in North America during the third quarter of 2018; (3) the reduction in revenue from the sale of Reliance Trust Company of Delaware during the fourth quarter of 2018; and (4) unfavorable foreign currency impact of $44 million primarily driven by a stronger U.S. Dollar versus the Brazilian Real, British Pound Sterling and Euro. These decreases were partially offset by (1) growth across all IFS divisions; (2) growth in GFS banking and payments solutions in North America; and (3) increased IFS termination fees.

Total Other Income (Expense), Net

Interest expense is typically the primary component of total other income (expense); however, during the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2019, other income (expense) was also a significant component.

The decreaseincrease of $1$5 million in interest expense, net duringfor the three-month period ended June 30, 2019March 31, 2020 as compared to the 2018 period2019 is primarily due to higher outstanding debt due to the Worldpay acquisition, mainly offset by a lower weighted-average interest rate on the outstanding debt and an increase in interest income on the proceeds from the Worldpay acquisition-related debt issuances, partially offset by higher outstanding debt. The increase of $3 million in interest expense, net during the six-month period ended June 30, 2019 as compared to the 2018 period is primarily due to higher outstanding debt, partially offset by lower weighted-average interest rate on the outstanding debt and increased interest income on the proceeds from the Worldpay acquisition-related debt issuances.

Other income (expense), net decreased $116$13 million and $170to $39 million duringexpense for the three-month and six-month periodsperiod ended June 30, 2019March 31, 2020 as compared to $52 million expense for the 2018 periods, respectively.three-month period ended March 31, 2019. Other income (expense), net for the three and six months ended June 30,March 31, 2020 includes foreign currency transaction remeasurement losses and a fair value adjustment on convertible Visa Inc. Series B preferred stock and related contingent value rights liability acquired from Worldpay. Other income (expense), net for the three-month period ended March 31, 2019 includes acquisition financing costs and the non-cash foreign currency impact of non-hedged Euro- and Pound Sterling-denominated notes issued during the three months ended June 30, 2019related to finance the Worldpay acquisition.

Segment Results of Operations (Unaudited)

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA (defined as net earnings (loss) before net interest expense, income tax provision (benefit) and depreciation and amortization) plus certain non-operating items. This measure is reported to the chief operating decision maker for purposes of making decisions about allocating resources to the segments and assessing their performance. For this reason, Adjusted EBITDA, as it relates to our segments, is presented in conformity with FASB ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting. The non-operating items affecting the segment profit measure generally include acquisition accounting adjustments and acquisition, integration and certain other costs. For consolidated reporting purposes, theseThese costs and adjustments are recorded in the Corporate and Other segment for the periods discussed below. Adjusted EBITDA for the respective segments excludes the foregoing costs and adjustments. Financial information, including details of our adjustments to EBITDA, for each of our segments is set forth in Note 1312 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)consolidated financial statements included in Part I of this Quarterly Report.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Cash Requirements

Our ongoing cash requirements include operating expenses, income taxes, tax receivable obligations, mandatory debt service payments, capital expenditures, stockholder dividends, working capital and timing differences in settlement-related assets and liabilities, and may include discretionary debt repayments, share repurchases and business acquisitions. Our principal sources of funds are cash generated by operations and borrowings, including the capacity under our Revolving Credit Facility, the U.S. commercial paper program and the Euro-commercial paper program describeddiscussed in Note 7 ofto the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited).consolidated financial statements.

As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, we had cash and cash equivalents of $9.8 billion$1,373 million and debt of $18.2$20.4 billion, including the current portion, net of capitalized debt issuance costs. Of the $9.8 billion$1,373 million cash and cash equivalents, approximately $552$652 million is held by our foreign entities. The majority

In March 2020, when the proceeds fromcommercial paper markets were less liquid due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company borrowed under its $5,500 million Revolving Credit Facility to pay the commercial paper maturities. Since March 31, 2020, the commercial paper markets have become more liquid and, as a result, the Company has been able to repay some of the outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility with new commercial paper issuances.

Our net cash provided by operating activities consists primarily of net earnings, adjusted to add back depreciation and amortization. Cash flows from operations were $3$89 million lowerhigher in the 20192020 period primarily due to transaction-relatedincreased cash flow due to the Worldpay acquisition, partially offset by the timing of settlement activities, lower net earnings from the COVID-19 pandemic, and Worldpay integration-related expenses.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance

On February 25, 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), which requires lessees to recognize leases on-balance sheet and disclose key information about leasing arrangements. Topic 842 was subsequently amended by ASU No. 2018-01, Land Easement Practical Expedient for Transition to Topic 842; ASU No. 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases; ASU No. 2018-11, Targeted Improvements; ASU No. 2018-20, Leases (Topic 842): Narrow-Scope Improvements for Lessors; and ASU No. 2019-1, Leases (Topic 842): Codification Improvements (collectively, the "new standard"). The new standard establishes a right-of-use ("ROU") model that requires a lessee to recognize an ROU asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with a term longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern and classification of expense recognition in the income statement. Under the new standard, lessor accounting is largely unchanged.

The new standard is effective for public business entities on January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted. A modified retrospective transition approach is required, applying the new standard to all leases existing at the date of initial application. An entity may choose to use either (1) its effective date (the "effective date method") or (2) the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements as its date of initial application. If an entity chooses the second option, the transition requirements for existing leases also apply to leases entered into between the date of initial application and the effective date. The entity must also recast its comparative period financial statements and provide the disclosures required by the new standard for the comparative periods. FIS adopted the new standard effective January 1, 2019 using the effective date method. Consequently, financial information was not updated and the disclosures required under the new standard were not provided for dates and periods before January 1, 2019.

The new standard provides several optional practical expedients in transition and for an entity’s ongoing accounting. We elected the "package of practical expedients," which permits us not to reassess under the new standard our prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs. We also elected the practical expedient not to separate lease and non-lease components. We did not elect the use-of-hindsight practical expedient nor the short-term lease recognition exemption.


The adoption of the new standard resulted in the recognition of operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet of $442 million and $446 million, respectively, on January 1, 2019. The standard did not impact our results of operations or cash flows. The Company’s accounting for finance leases, which are immaterial, remained substantially unchanged.

On February 14, 2018 the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-02 ("ASU 2018-02"), Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects From Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income. ASU 2018-02 allows companies to elect whether to reclassify from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings the tax effects of items within accumulated other comprehensive income, referred to as stranded tax effects, resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. FIS adopted ASU 2018-02 on January 1, 2019, and did not elect to reclassify the income tax effects of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings. As a result, the adoption of this ASU did not have an impact on the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements.
Recent Accounting Guidance Not Yet Adopted

On June 16, 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13 ("ASU 2016-13"), Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurements on Credit Losses of Financial Instruments. This ASU was subsequently amended by ASU No. 2018-19, Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (collectively, "Topic 326"). The primary objectives of Topic 326 are to implement new methodology for calculating credit losses on financial instruments (e.g., trade receivables) based on expected credit losses and to broaden the types of information companies must use when calculating the estimated losses. Under current guidance, the credit losses are calculated based on multiple credit impairment objectives and recognition is delayed until the loss is probable to occur. Under the new guidance, financial assets measured at amortized cost basis must be shown as the net amount expected to be collected. The credit loss allowance is a contra-valuation account. Available-for-sale securities should continue to be recognized in a similar manner to current GAAP; however, the allowance should be presented as an allowance instead of a write-down of the basis of the asset. For public business entities, the amendments are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted for any organization in any interim or annual period beginning after December 15, 2018. We do not plan to early adopt and expect that the new guidance will not have a material impact on our financial statement presentation, financial position, or results of operations.

OnIn August 29, 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-15 (“("ASU 2018-15”2018-15"), Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract. This ASU clarifies that implementation costs incurred by customers in cloud computing arrangements should be deferred and recognized over the term of the arrangement, if those costs would be capitalized by the customer in a software licensing arrangement under the internal-use software guidance. The provisions inFIS adopted ASU 2018-15 should be applied either retrospectively or prospectively to all implementation costs incurred after2018-05 on January 1, 2020, using the date of adoption. For public business entities, ASU 2018-15 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently assessing the impact theprospective approach. The adoption of this new standard did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risks

Market Risk

We are exposed to market risks primarily from changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. Such risks may be exacerbated by the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. We periodically use certain derivative financial instruments, including interest rate swaps and foreign currency forward contracts, to manage interest rate and foreign currency risk. We do not use derivatives for trading purposes, to generate income or to engage in speculative activity.

Interest Rate Risk

In addition to existing cash balances and cash provided by operating activities, we use fixed-rate and variable-rate debt to finance our operations. We are exposed to interest rate risk on these debt obligations and related interest rate swaps.
TheOur fixed rate senior notes (as describedincluded in Note 7 ofto the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited))consolidated financial statements) represent the majority of our fixed-rate long-term debt obligations as of June 30, 2019.March 31, 2020. The carrying value, excluding the fair value of the interest rate swap described below and unamortized discounts, of theour senior notes was $16.7$16.3 billion as of June 30, 2019.March 31, 2020. The fair value of theour senior notes was approximately $17.5$16.5 billion as of June 30, 2019.March 31, 2020. The potential reduction in fair value of the

senior notes from a hypothetical 10 percent increase in market interest rates would not be material to the overall fair value of the debt.

Our floating ratevariable-rate risk principally relates to borrowings under our U.S. commercial paper program, Euro-commercial paper program, Revolving Credit Facility, Senior Euro Floating Rate Notes (as definedincluded in Note 7 ofto the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited))consolidated financial statements) and an interest rate swap on our fixed-rate long-term debt. At June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, our weighted-average cost of debt was 2.5%1.9% with a weighted-average maturity of 7.26.2 years; 85%75% of our debt was fixed-rate and the remaining 15%25% of our debt was floating-rate.variable-rate. A 100 basis point increase in the weighted-average interest rate on our floating ratevariable-rate debt would have increased our annual interest expense by $27$50 million. We performed the foregoing sensitivity analysis based solely on the principal amount of our floating ratevariable-rate debt as of June 30, 2019.March 31, 2020. This sensitivity analysis does not take into account any changes that occurred in the prior 12 months or that may take place in the next 12 months in the amount of our outstanding debt. Further, this sensitivity analysis assumes the change in interest rates is applicable for an entire year. For comparison purposes, based on principal amounts of floating ratevariable-rate debt outstanding as of June 30, 2018,March 31, 2019, and calculated in the same manner as set forth above, an increase of 100 basis points in the weighted-average interest rate would have increased our annual interest expense by approximately $4$13 million.

As of June 30, 2019,March 31, 2020, the following interest rate swap converting the interest rate exposure on our Senior Euro Notes due July 2024 from fixed to variable is outstanding (in millions):

Foreign Currency Risk

We are exposed to foreign currency risks that arise from normal business operations. These risks include the translation of local currency balances of foreign subsidiaries, transaction gains and losses associated with intercompany loans with foreign subsidiaries and transactions denominated in currencies other than a location'slocation’s functional currency. We manage the exposure to these risks through a combination of normal operating activities and the use of foreign currency forward contracts and non-derivative and derivative investment hedges. Contracts are denominated in currencies of major industrial countries.

Our exposure to foreign currency exchange risks generally arises from our non-U.S. operations, to the extent they are conducted in local currency. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates affect translations of revenue denominated in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar. We generated approximately $317$593 million and $378$310 million during the three monthsthree-month periods ended March 31, 2020 and $626 million and $757 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019, and 2018, respectively, in revenue denominated in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar. The major currencies to which our revenues arerevenue is exposed are the Brazilian Real, the Euro, the British Pound Sterling, Euro, Brazilian Real and the Indian Rupee. A 10% move in average exchange rates for these currencies (assuming a simultaneous and immediate 10% change in all of such rates for the relevant period) would have resulted in the following increase or decrease in our reported revenue for the three and six months ended June 30,March 31, 2020 and 2019 and 2018 (in millions):

While our results of operations have been impacted by the effects of currency fluctuations, our international operations'operations’ revenue and expenses are generally denominated in local currency, which reduces our economic exposure to foreign exchange risk in those jurisdictions.

Revenue included $18 million and $44$16 million of unfavorable foreign currency impact during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019March 31, 2020 resulting from changes in the U.S. Dollar during the 20192020 period as compared to 2018.2019. Net earnings attributable to FIS common stockholders included $18 million and $39$1 million of unfavorablefavorable foreign currency impact during the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, respectively,March 31, 2020 resulting from changes in the U.S. Dollar during the 20192020 period as compared to 2018. For the full year of 2019, we anticipate an approximate $80 million adverse impact to revenue due to foreign currency translation, although the actual amount of impact is uncertain due to the many factors that affect exchange rates.2019.

Our foreign exchange risk management policy permits the use of derivative instruments, such as forward contracts and options, to reduce volatility in our results of operations and/or cash flows resulting from foreign exchange rate fluctuations. We do not enter into foreign currency derivative instruments for trading purposes or to engage in speculative activity. We do periodically enter into foreign currency forward exchange contracts to hedge foreign currency exposure to intercompany loans and other balance sheet items. During the second quarter of 2019, we entered into foreign currency forward exchange contracts to reduce the volatility in the Company's cash flows due to foreign exchange rate fluctuations during the period leading up to the Company’s Euro- and Pound Sterling-denominated debt issuances related to the Worldpay acquisition, as discussed in Note 8 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited). The Company also utilizes foreign currency denominatedcurrency-denominated debt and cross-currency interest rate swaps designated as net investment hedges in order to reduce the volatility of the net investment value of certain of its Euro and Pound Sterling functional subsidiaries (see Note 8 ofto the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited))consolidated financial statements).
Item 4. Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”"Exchange Act"). Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is (a) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms and (b) accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There wereIn the third quarter of 2019, we completed the acquisition of Worldpay (see Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements). We are in the process of integrating Worldpay into our overall internal controls over financial reporting program. Other than this ongoing integration, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred

during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, a significant portion of our employees are now working from home while shelter-in-place or other lock-down orders are in effect. We leveraged our established business continuity plans as well as implemented a comprehensive Pandemic Plan in order to mitigate potential impacts to our control environment. Existing technology and procedures allow for the remote operation of controls.

Part II: OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1A. Risk Factors

The following information with respect to our acquisition of Worldpay and its subsidiaries supplements the disclosure set forth under Part I,See Item 1A. Risk Factorsin our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, for a detailed discussion of risk factors affecting the Company. There have been no material changes in the risk factors described therein except as detailed below:

The extent to which the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and measures taken in response thereto impact our business, results of operations, liquidity and financial condition will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and are difficult to predict.

Global health concerns relating to the COVID-19 pandemic and related government actions taken to reduce the spread of the virus have been weighing on the macroeconomic environment, and the pandemic has significantly increased economic uncertainty and reduced economic activity, including consumer and business spending. Risks related to economic activity, including consumers and businesses changing spending habits, are described in our risk factor titled “Global economic, political and other conditions, including business cycles, seasonality and consumer confidence, may adversely affect our clients or trends in consumer spending, which may adversely impact the demand for our services and our revenue and profitability” under “Item 1A. Risk Factors - Risks Related to Our Business and Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

The pandemic has resulted in government authorities implementing numerous measures to try to contain the virus, such as travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter-in-place or total lock-down orders and business limitations and shutdowns. Governments around the globe have taken steps to mitigate some of the more severe anticipated economic effects of the virus, but there can be no assurance that such steps will be effective or achieve their desired results in a timely fashion.

As U.S. and foreign governmental authorities have imposed social distancing, shelter-in-place or total lock-down orders, spending has declined, most notably in travel, restaurants, entertainment, and retail, resulting in a rapid deterioration in payments volume and transaction trends on a worldwide basis beginning in March 2020, which has been adversely impacting revenue in our payments businesses that earn transaction-based fees. In addition, we may experience a slowdown in corporate decision-making on sales and implementation of our solutions, as well as on software licenses and professional services. These changes in spending appear likely to adversely affect our business, results of operations and financial condition in the second quarter of 2020 and possibly beyond, although the magnitude and duration of their ultimate effect is not possible to predict.

We may experience financial impacts due to a number of operational factors, including:

increased risk of merchant and card issuer failures, and credit settlement and chargeback risk;
increased risk of meeting client service contractual obligations due to government lock-down or other orders where it is not possible to provide certain client-facing services from home or to promptly transfer them to other locations, causing potential loss of revenue or contractual penalties due to failure to meet service level requirements as well as potential legal disputes and associated costs regarding force majeure or other related contract defenses;
increased cyber and payment fraud risk related to COVID-19, as cybercriminals attempt to profit from the disruption, given increased online banking, e-commerce and other online activity;
challenges to the availability and reliability of our solutions and services due to changes to normal operations, including the possibility of one or more clusters of COVID-19 cases occurring at our data centers, contact centers or operations centers, affecting our employees or affecting the systems or employees of our clients or other third parties on which we depend;
an increased volume of unanticipated client and regulatory requests for information and support, or additional regulatory requirements, which could require additional resources and costs to address, including, for example, government initiatives to reduce or eliminate payments costs or fees to merchants; and
the general impact of recession and instability of markets across the globe.
32

Table of Contents


These factors may remain prevalent for a significant period of time and may continue to adversely affect our business, results of operations, liquidity and financial condition even after the COVID-19 pandemic has subsided.

The spread of COVID-19 has caused us to modify our business practices (including restricting employee travel, developing social distancing plans for our employees and cancelling physical participation in meetings, events and conferences), and we may take further actions as may be required by government authorities or as we determine are in the best interests of our employees, clients and business partners. There is no certainty that such measures will be sufficient to mitigate the risks posed by the virus or will otherwise be satisfactory to government authorities. Further, the ability of our senior management and employees to get to work has been disrupted across multiple locations, whether in their own offices or at client sites, due among other things to government work and travel restrictions, including mandatory shutdowns. Where appropriate and plausible under local conditions, we have moved or are moving the work from affected locations. Many of our employees are currently working remotely, where they may not be as effective.

In addition, we have recently extended higher-than-usual levels of credit to our merchant clients as part of funds settlement in connection with payments to their customers, for, among other things, refunds for cancelled trips and events. If the speed of repayments to us by our merchant clients is substantially slower than expected over an extended period of time, or if our merchant clients cease operations such that we are unable to collect on the credit advanced by us for these payments or for any chargeback liability, it could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, results of operations and financial condition.

The extent to which the coronavirus pandemic impacts our business, results of operations and financial condition will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and are difficult to predict, including, but not limited to, the duration and spread of the pandemic, its severity, the actions to contain the virus or treat its impact, and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume. We may experience materially adverse impacts to our business as a result of the virus’ global economic impact, including the availability of credit and our ability to comply with the covenants of our credit agreement, adverse impacts on our liquidity, the ability to meet our deleveraging targets, and any recession that has occurred or may occur in the future. Such impacts may also have a material effect on one or more of the estimates and assumptions used to evaluate goodwill impairment and could result in future goodwill impairment. Additionally, COVID-19 may have a material effect on our ability to pay our quarterly dividends at current levels or at all.

There are no comparable recent events that provide guidance as to the effect the spread of COVID-19 as a global pandemic may have, and, as a result, the ultimate impact of the pandemic is highly uncertain and subject to change. We do not yet know the full extent of the impacts on our business, our operations or the global economy as a whole. However, the effects could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, liquidity or financial condition and heighten many of our known risks described in the Risk Factors section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018. In addition to the matters set forth below, the risks associated with the Worldpay business are similar to those FIS faces in many respects, and therefore the merger will in many cases increase our exposure to the risks set forth in our Form 10-K. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that are currently not believed to be significant to our business may also affect our actual results and could harm our business, financial condition and results2019.

Table of operations. If any of the risks or uncertainties described below or any additional risks and uncertainties actually occur, our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely affected.Contents

Risk Factors Relating to the Merger

The market price for FIS common stock following the closing may be affected by factors different from those that historically have affected or currently affect FIS common stock.
At the effective time of the merger, Worldpay stockholders were entitled to receive shares of FIS common stock. The combined company’s business and financial position will differ from the business and financial position of each of FIS and

Worldpay before the completion of the merger, and the results of operations of the combined company will be affected by some factors that are different from those affecting the results of operations of FIS and those currently affecting the results of operations of Worldpay. Accordingly, the market price and performance of FIS common stock after the completion of the merger is likely to be different from the performance of Worldpay Class A common stock in the absence of the merger. In addition, general fluctuations in stock markets could have a material adverse effect on the market for, or liquidity of, FIS common stock, regardless of FIS’ actual operating performance.

Legacy FIS shareholders generally have a reduced ownership and voting interest in FIS after the merger.

Immediately after the completion of the merger, the shares of FIS common stock held by each FIS shareholder immediately prior to the completion of the merger remain outstanding but represent a percentage ownership of FIS that is smaller than the percentage ownership of FIS represented by such shares immediately prior to the completion of the merger. As a result of this reduced ownership percentage, such shares represent less voting power in FIS after the completion of the merger than they represented prior to the completion of the merger. Immediately following the completion of the merger, the shares of FIS common stock outstanding immediately prior to the completion of the merger constituted approximately 53%, and the shares of FIS common stock that former Worldpay stockholders received in the merger constituted approximately 47%, of the issued and outstanding shares of the combined company.

Uncertainties associated with the merger may cause a loss of management personnel and other key employees of FIS and Worldpay, which could adversely affect the future business and operations of FIS following the merger.

FIS and Worldpay are dependent on the experience and industry knowledge of their officers and other key employees to execute their business plans. FIS’ success after the merger will depend in part upon its ability to retain key management personnel and other key employees. Current and prospective employees of FIS may experience uncertainty about their roles within FIS following the merger or other concerns regarding the operations of FIS following the merger, any of which may have an adverse effect on the ability of FIS to retain or attract key management and other key personnel. If FIS is unable to retain personnel after the merger, including FIS’ key management, who are critical to the future operations of the company, FIS could face disruptions in its operations, loss of existing customers, loss of key information, expertise or know-how and unanticipated additional recruitment and training costs. In addition, the loss of key personnel could diminish the anticipated benefits of the merger. No assurance can be given that FIS, following the merger, will be able to retain or attract key management personnel and other key employees of FIS and Worldpay to the same extent that FIS and Worldpay have previously been able to retain or attract their own employees.
FIS’ and Worldpay’s business relationships may be subject to disruption due to uncertainty associated with the transaction.

The business relationships of FIS and Worldpay may be subject to disruption due to uncertainty associated with the merger, which could have a material adverse effect on the results of operations, cash flows and financial position of the combined company following the merger.

Parties with which FIS or Worldpay do business may experience uncertainty associated with the merger, including with respect to current or future business relationships with FIS following the merger. FIS’ business relationships may be subject to disruption as customers, distributors, suppliers, vendors, landlords, joint venture partners and other business partners may attempt to delay or defer entering into new business relationships, negotiate changes in existing business relationships or consider entering into business relationships with parties other than FIS following the merger. These disruptions could have a material and adverse effect on the results of operations, cash flows and financial position of FIS, regardless of whether the merger is completed, as well as a material and adverse effect on FIS’ ability to realize the expected cost savings and other benefits of the merger.

Risk Factors Relating to FIS Following the Merger

FIS may be unable to integrate the business of Worldpay successfully or realize the anticipated benefits of the merger.

The merger involves the combination of two companies that currently operate as independent public companies. The combination of two independent businesses is complex, costly and time consuming, and FIS will be required to devote significant management attention and resources to integrating the business practices and operations of Worldpay into FIS. Potential difficulties that FIS may encounter as part of the integration process include the following:

the inability to successfully combine the business of Worldpay in a manner that permits FIS to achieve, on a timely basis, or at all, the enhanced revenue opportunities and cost savings and other benefits anticipated to result from the merger;
complexities associated with managing the combined businesses, including difficulty addressing possible differences in corporate cultures and management philosophies and the challenge of integrating complex systems, technology, networks and other assets of each of the companies in a seamless manner that minimizes any adverse impact on customers, suppliers, employees and other constituencies; and
potential unknown liabilities and unforeseen increased expenses or delays associated with the merger.

In addition, FIS and Worldpay operated independently until the completion of the merger. It is possible that the integration process could result in:

diversion of the attention of FIS' management; and
the disruption of, or the loss of momentum in, FIS' ongoing businesses or inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures and policies.

Any of these issues could adversely affect FIS' ability to maintain relationships with customers, suppliers, employees and other constituencies or achieve the anticipated benefits of the merger, or could reduce FIS' earnings or otherwise adversely affect the business and financial results of FIS following the merger.

The complexity of the integration and transition associated with the merger, together with the resulting increased scale and global presence, may affect FIS’ internal control over financial reporting and ability to effectively and timely report financial results.

The additional scale of the combined company’s operations, together with the complexity of the integration effort, including changes to or implementation of critical information technology systems, may adversely affect FIS’ ability to report financial results on a timely basis. In addition, FIS will have to train new employees and third party providers, and assume operations in jurisdictions where FIS has not previously had operations. FIS expects that the merger may necessitate significant modifications to its internal control systems, processes and information systems, both on a transition basis and over the longer-term as FIS fully integrates the combined company. Due to the complexity of the merger, FIS cannot be certain that changes to internal control over financial reporting will be effective for any period, or on an ongoing basis. If FIS is unable to accurately report FIS’ financial results in a timely manner, or is unable to assert that FIS’ internal controls over financial reporting are effective, FIS’ business, financial condition and results of operations and the market perception thereof may be materially adversely affected.

Security breaches or attacks, or our failure to comply with information security laws or regulations or industry security requirements, could harm the business of the combined company by disrupting delivery of services and damaging the reputation of FIS and could result in a breach of one or more client contracts.
FIS electronically receives, processes, stores and transmits sensitive business information of its clients. In addition, FIS collects personal consumer data, such as names and addresses, social security numbers, driver’s license numbers, cardholder data and payment history records. Such information is necessary to support our clients’ transaction processing and to conduct our check authorization and collection businesses. The uninterrupted operation of information systems, as well as the confidentiality of the customer/consumer information that resides on such systems, is critical to the successful operation of FIS following the merger. For that reason, cybersecurity is one of the principal operational risks FIS faces as a provider of services to financial institutions. If FIS fails to maintain an adequate security infrastructure, adapt to emerging security threats, or implement sufficient security standards and technology to protect against security breaches, the confidentiality of the information FIS secures could be compromised. Unauthorized access to the computer systems or databases of FIS could result in the theft or publication of confidential information, the deletion or modification of records, damages from legal actions from clients and/or their customers, or otherwise cause interruptions in FIS' operations and damage to its reputation. These risks are greater with increased information transmission over the Internet, the increasing level of sophistication posed by cyber criminals and the integration of FIS and Worldpay systems.

As a provider of services to financial institutions and a provider of card processing services, FIS is bound by the same limitations on disclosure of the information FIS receives from clients as apply to the clients themselves. If FIS fails to comply with these regulations and industry security requirements, it could be exposed to damages from legal actions from clients and/or their customers, governmental proceedings, governmental notice requirements, and the imposition of significant fines or

prohibitions on card processing services. In addition, if more restrictive privacy laws, rules or industry security requirements are adopted in the future on the federal or state level, or by a specific industry body, they could have an adverse impact on FIS through increased costs or restrictions on business processes. Any inability to prevent security or privacy breaches, or the perception that such breaches may occur, could cause existing clients to lose confidence in FIS systems and terminate their agreements with FIS, inhibit FIS' ability to attract new clients, result in increasing regulation, or bring about other adverse consequences from the government agencies that regulate FIS following the merger.

Unknown or developing Worldpay litigation or claims could result in the payment of damages or other remedies or cause reputational injury to FIS.

Worldpay may be exposed to unknown or developing claims, which could result in a litigation matter being asserted against FIS. If we are unsuccessful in our defense of these litigation matters, we may be forced to pay damages and/or other remedies, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations or cause reputational injury to FIS.

The indebtedness of FIS and its subsidiaries following completion of the merger will be substantially greater than FIS’ indebtedness prior to completion of the merger. This increased level of indebtedness could adversely affect FIS, including by decreasing FIS’ business flexibility and increasing its interest expense.

FIS has incurred acquisition-related financing of approximately $11.1 billion, all of which is expected to be used to refinance certain outstanding indebtedness of Worldpay and its subsidiaries on the closing date, pay a portion of the merger consideration and pay fees and expenses related to the merger, the refinancing and the related transactions. Accordingly, the indebtedness of FIS and its subsidiaries following completion of the merger will be substantially greater than FIS’ indebtedness prior to completion of the merger. FIS’ substantially increased indebtedness following completion of the merger could have the effect, among other things, of reducing FIS’ flexibility to respond to changing business and economic conditions. In addition, the amount of cash required to pay interest has increased due to FIS’ increased indebtedness levels, thus the demands on FIS’ cash resources will be greater than the amount of cash flows required to service the indebtedness of FIS prior to the merger. FIS will also incur various costs and expenses associated with the financing of the merger. The increased levels of indebtedness following completion of the merger could also reduce funds available to fund FIS’ efforts to integrate the business of Worldpay and realize the expected benefits of the merger and to engage in investments in product development, fund working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and other general corporate purposes, and may create competitive disadvantages for FIS relative to other companies with lower debt levels. If FIS does not achieve the expected benefits and cost savings from the merger, or if the financial performance of the combined company does not meet current expectations, then FIS’ ability to service its indebtedness, or to reduce leverage levels based on debt repayments or cash flow generation, may be adversely impacted.

Certain of the indebtedness incurred in connection with the merger bears interest at variable interest rates. If interest rates increase, variable rate debt will create higher debt service requirements, which could adversely affect FIS’ cash flows.

In addition, FIS’ credit ratings impact the cost and availability of future borrowings and, accordingly, FIS’ cost of capital. FIS’ ratings reflect each rating organization’s opinion of FIS’ financial strength, operating performance and ability to meet its debt obligations. In connection with the debt financing, FIS has obtained ratings of its indebtedness from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC and Fitch Ratings, Inc. There can be no assurance that FIS will maintain a particular rating in the future or that FIS’ ratings will not be adversely affected by the factors described above. Agency credit ratings are not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold any security.

Moreover, FIS may be required to raise substantial additional financing to fund working capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions or other general corporate requirements. FIS’ ability to arrange additional financing will depend on, among other factors, FIS’ financial position and performance, as well as prevailing market conditions and other factors beyond FIS’ control. FIS cannot assure you that it will be able to obtain additional financing on terms acceptable to FIS or at all.

The synergies attributable to the merger may vary from expectations.

FIS may fail to realize the anticipated benefits and synergies expected from the merger, which could adversely affect FIS’ business, financial condition and operating results. The success of the merger will depend, in significant part, on FIS’ ability to successfully integrate the acquired business, grow the revenue of the combined company and realize the anticipated strategic benefits and synergies from the combination. FIS believes that the addition of Worldpay will complement FIS’ strategy by providing scale and revenue diversity, accelerate FIS’ growth strategy and enable FIS to have a strong global footprint.

However, achieving these goals requires growth of the revenue of the combined company and realization of the targeted cost synergies expected from the merger. This growth and the anticipated benefits of the transaction may not be realized fully or at all, or may take longer to realize than expected. Actual operating, technological, strategic and revenue opportunities, if achieved at all, may be less significant than expected or may take longer to achieve than anticipated. If FIS is not able to achieve these objectives and realize the anticipated benefits and synergies expected from the merger within the anticipated timing or at all, FIS’ business, financial condition and operating results may be adversely affected.

The future results of FIS following the merger will suffer if FIS does not effectively manage its expanded operations.

Following the merger, the size of the business of FIS increased significantly beyond the prior size of either FIS’ or Worldpay’s business. FIS’ future success will depend, in part, upon its ability to manage this expanded business, which will pose substantial challenges for management, including challenges related to the management and monitoring of new operations and associated increased costs and complexity. FIS may also face increased scrutiny from governmental authorities as a result of the significant increase in the size of its business. There can be no assurances that FIS will be successful or that it will realize the expected operating efficiencies, cost savings, revenue enhancements or other benefits currently anticipated from the merger.

FIS is expected to incur substantial expenses related to the merger and integration.

FIS is expected to incur substantial expenses in connection with the merger and the related integration. There are a large number of processes, policies, procedures, operations, technologies and systems that may need to be integrated, including purchasing, accounting and finance, sales, payroll, pricing and benefits. While FIS has assumed that a certain level of expenses will be incurred, there are many factors beyond its control that could affect the total amount or the timing of the integration expenses. Moreover, many of the expenses that will be incurred are, by their nature, difficult to estimate accurately. These expenses could, particularly in the near term, exceed the savings that FIS expects to achieve from the elimination of duplicative expenses and the realization of economies of scale and cost savings. These integration expenses may result in FIS taking significant charges against earnings following the completion of the merger, and the amount and timing of such charges are uncertain at present. Any material delays, difficulties or unanticipated additional expenses associated with integration activities may harm FIS’ business, financial condition and results of operations.

The merger may result in a loss of customers, distributors, suppliers, vendors, landlords, joint venture partners and other business partners and may result in the termination of existing contracts.
Following the merger, some of the customers, distributors, suppliers, vendors, landlords, joint venture partners and other business partners of FIS or Worldpay may terminate or scale back their current or prospective business relationships with FIS. Some customers may not wish to source a larger percentage of their needs from a single company or may feel that FIS is too closely allied with one of their competitors. In addition, FIS and Worldpay have contracts with customers, distributors, suppliers, vendors, landlords, joint venture partners and other business partners that may require FIS or Worldpay to obtain consents from these other parties in connection with the merger, which may not be obtained on favorable terms or at all. If relationships with customers, distributors, suppliers, vendors, landlords, joint venture partners and other business partners are adversely affected by the merger, or if FIS, following the merger, loses the benefits of the contracts of FIS or Worldpay, FIS’ business and financial performance could suffer.

Certain of Worldpay’s agreements may contain change of control provisions which, if not waived, would have material adverse effects on the combined company.

Worldpay is a party to various agreements with third parties, including certain financing agreements, service contracts, IT contracts and technology licenses that may contain change of control provisions that will be triggered upon the completion of the merger. Agreements with change of control provisions typically provide for or permit the termination of the agreement upon the occurrence of a change of control of one of the parties which can be waived by the relevant counterparties. If FIS determines that one or more such waivers are necessary, it will seek to obtain these waivers. Although the combined company believes the likelihood of a material consent being withheld is low, there can be no assurance that such consent will be obtained at all or on favorable terms, and as of the date of this document no such waivers have been sought or obtained. The inability to obtain waivers from more than one relevant counterparty could have a material adverse effect on the combined company.


Following the merger, FIS’ business may be adversely affected by geopolitical, regulatory and other risks associated with operations outside of the United States and the combined company may incur higher than anticipated costs and may become more susceptible to these risks.
After completion of the merger, the combined company will have significantly expanded its international presence by offering merchant acquiring, including e-commerce, services outside of the United States, including in the United Kingdom and European Union countries, where Worldpay’s principal non-U.S. operations are currently located. FIS’ revenues derived from these and other non-U.S. operations will be subject to additional risks, including those resulting from social and geopolitical instability and unfavorable political or diplomatic developments, all of which could negatively impact its financial results. For example, the United Kingdom’s decision to leave the European Union may add cost and complexity in various aspects of FIS’ business as United Kingdom and European Union laws and regulations diverge. FIS will also be subject to potential non-U.S. governmental intervention and new laws and new regulations that it was not previously subject to, which could increase costs and may have potential negative effects on FIS’ business.

Privacy laws and regulations, such as the General Data Protection Regulation, which we refer to as the GDPR, will require FIS and Worldpay to adopt new business practices and contractual provisions in existing and new contracts which may require transitional and incremental expenses which may impact the future operating results of the combined business.
New privacy laws, such as the GDPR in the European Union, continue to develop in unpredictable ways. Privacy laws may be interpreted and applied inconsistently from country to country and impose inconsistent or conflicting requirements. Complying with varying jurisdictional requirements could increase the costs and complexity of compliance and associated recordkeeping costs or require us to change our business practices in a manner adverse to our business. Violations of privacy laws can result in significant penalties and damage to our brand and business. Worldpay's and FIS’ implementation of compliance programs to comply with the known obligations under the GDPR may differ significantly. The combined company may incur significant costs to synchronize the compliance programs. Failure to comply with the requirements of the GDPR could result in significant penalties and loss of business, among other things.

New privacy laws in California and Brazil are expected to issue clarifying regulations prior to becoming effective in 2020. There are also several additional privacy laws being considered by state legislatures, the federal legislature and countries around the world, so a more substantial compliance effort with varying regimes in different jurisdictions is considered probable in the future, which will increase the costs and complexities of the combined business.
The Referendum on the United Kingdom’s Membership in the European Union could cause disruption to and create uncertainty surrounding our business.

Material portions of Worldpay’s business are located in, and service clients in, the United Kingdom. The referendum on the United Kingdom’s membership in the European Union, which we refer to as Brexit, approving the exit of the United Kingdom from the European Union could cause disruption to and create uncertainty surrounding the combined business, including affecting relationships with existing and future clients, suppliers and employees, which could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial results and operations of the combined business. The effects of Brexit will depend on the agreements, if any, the U.K. makes with the European Union to retain access to European Union markets at the time Brexit takes effect (which deadline, if not suspended or further delayed, is currently October 31, 2019), during a transitional period or more permanently. In addition, because the terms of trade between the U.K. and jurisdictions other than the European Union may be currently governed by trade agreements between the European Union and such other jurisdictions, the U.K. may be required to negotiate new terms of trade with such other jurisdictions. These potential measures could disrupt the markets the combined business will serve and the tax jurisdictions in which it will operate and could adversely change tax benefits or liabilities in these or other jurisdictions, and may cause the combined business to lose clients, suppliers, and employees. In addition, Brexit could lead to legal uncertainty and potentially divergent national laws and regulations as the U.K. determines which European Union laws to replace or replicate, including competition laws.

Actions to implement Brexit may also create global economic uncertainty, which may cause clients to closely monitor their costs and reduce their spending on our solutions and services.

Any of these effects of Brexit, among others, could materially adversely affect the business, business opportunities, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows of the combined business.


We cannot assure our shareholders that we will be able to continue paying dividends at the current rate.

FIS plans to continue its current dividend practices following the transaction. However, based on the number of issued and outstanding shares of Worldpay Class A common stock as of the close of business on the Worldpay record date, FIS would issue approximately 289 million shares of FIS common stock in the merger. Continuing FIS’ current dividend practices following the merger will require additional cash to pay such dividends, which it may not have. For this and other reasons generally affecting the ability to pay dividends, FIS shareholders may not receive the same dividends as FIS shareholders have received in the past following the transaction.

FIS shareholders also should be aware that they have no contractual or other legal right to dividends that have not been declared.

The payment processing industry is highly competitive in merchant solutions. Such competition could adversely affect the transaction and other fees received from merchants and financial institutions, and as a result, FIS’ margins, business, financial condition and results of operations following the merger.

 Worldpay is a leading merchant solutions company. Its competitors in this business include financial institutions and well-established payment processing companies, including Adyen, Bank of America Merchant Services, Barclays plc, Chase Paymentech Solutions, Elavon Inc. (a subsidiary of U.S. Bancorp), First Data Corporation, Global Payments, Inc., and Total System Services, Inc.

In addition, Worldpay’s U.S. competitors that are financial institutions or are affiliated with financial institutions may not incur the sponsorship costs Worldpay incurs for registration with the payment networks. Accordingly, these competitors may be able to offer more attractive fees to Worldpay’s current and prospective clients or other services that Worldpay does not provide. Competition could result in a loss of existing clients of Worldpay, and greater difficulty attracting new clients. Furthermore, if competition causes Worldpay to reduce the fees it charges in order to attract or retain clients, there is no assurance Worldpay can successfully control its costs in order to maintain our profit margins. One or more of these factors could have a material adverse effect on FIS’ business, financial condition and results of operations following the merger.

Worldpay is currently facing new competitive pressure from non-traditional payments processors and other parties entering the payments industry, such as PayPal, Google, Apple, Alibaba, Amazon, Square and Stripe, who may compete in one or more of the functions performed in processing merchant transactions. These companies have significant financial resources and robust networks and are highly regarded by consumers. If these companies gain a greater share of total electronic payments transactions or if the combined company is unable to successfully react to changes in the industry spurred by the entry of these new market participants, it could have a material adverse effect on FIS’ business, financial condition and results of operations.

Following the merger, the combined company could be subject to certain risks associated with the implementation of Worldpay’s new proprietary global acquiring platform.

Worldpay has made significant progress toward implementation of its proprietary global acquiring platform project. As the combined company continues to implement this project, through the migration of existing merchant customers and onboarding of new merchant customers to the platform, the scale and complexity associated with this project presents the increased potential for service level delays or disruptions in the processing of transactions, telecommunications failures or other difficulties. Such delays or disruptions could result in reputational harm, loss of business and increased operational or technological costs.

Following the merger, the combined company may not be able to continue to expand its share of the existing payment processing markets or expand into new markets, which would inhibit FIS’ ability to grow and increase its profitability.

 Following the merger, FIS’ future growth and profitability will depend in part upon the growth of the payment processing markets in which Worldpay currently operates and its ability to increase its penetration and service offerings within these markets, as well as the emergence of new markets for Worldpay’s services and its ability to penetrate these new markets. Attracting new clients is difficult because of potential disadvantages associated with switching payment processing vendors, such as transition costs, business disruption and loss of accustomed functionality. Following the merger, FIS will seek to overcome these factors by making investments to enhance the functionality of the combined company’s platforms and differentiate its services. However, there can be no assurance that these efforts will be successful, and this resistance may adversely affect its growth.


 The combined company’s expansion into new markets will also be dependent upon its ability to adapt Worldpay’s existing payment processing technology and offerings or to develop new or innovative applications to meet the particular service needs of each new market. In order to do so, FIS will need to anticipate and react to market changes and devote appropriate financial and technical resources to its development efforts, and there can be no assurance that it will be successful in these efforts.

Furthermore, in response to market developments, FIS may continue to expand into new geographical markets and foreign countries in which neither it nor Worldpay currently has any operating experience. However, there can be no assurance that FIS will be able to successfully continue such expansion efforts due to this lack of experience and the multitude of risks associated with global operations or lack of appropriate regulatory approval.

Worldpay’s payments business is subject to regulation, supervision, and enforcement authority of numerous governmental and regulatory bodies in the jurisdictions in which it operates, which includes banking regulators and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (“CFPB”) in the United States, the FCA and PSR in the United Kingdom, and the Dutch Central Bank.

Because Worldpay is a technology service provider to U.S. Financial Institutions, it is are subject to regular oversight and examination by the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (“FFIEC”), which is an inter-agency body of federal banking regulators. The FFIEC has broad discretion in the implementation, interpretation and enforcement of banking and consumer protection laws. A failure to comply with these laws, or its failure to meet the supervisory expectations of the banking regulators, could result in adverse action against the combined company following the merger. The regulators have the power to, among other things, enjoin “unsafe or unsound” practices; require affirmative actions to correct any violation or practice; issue administrative orders that can be judicially enforced; direct the sale of subsidiaries or other assets; and assess civil money penalties.

Worldpay is also subject to on-going supervision by regulatory and governmental bodies across the world, including economic and conduct regulators such as the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and Payment Systems Regulator (PSR) in the United Kingdom and the Dutch Central Bank (De Nederlandsche Bank or DNB) in the Netherlands, and regulatory and governmental bodies responsible for issuing anti-money laundering, anti-bribery, and global economic sanctions regulations. These various regulatory regimes require Worldpay to be in compliance across many aspects of its activities in respect of capital requirements, safeguarding, training, authorization and supervision of personnel, systems, processes and documentation. If Worldpay fails to comply with relevant regulations or applicable economic sanctions, it risks reputational damage, potential civil and criminal sanctions, fines or other action imposed by regulatory or governmental authorities, including the potential suspension or revocation of the permission-based regulatory licenses which authorize Worldpay to provide core services to customers. Certain aspects of Worldpay’s business may be determined by an appropriate regulator, quasi regulatory body or the courts as not being conducted in accordance with applicable laws or regulations, or Worldpay may face allegations of direct or indirect non-compliance with relevant regulatory regimes (such as the misselling of financial products), or other actions in the United Kingdom, the Netherlands and other jurisdictions, as well as private litigation resulting from such actions. This could result in an adverse effect on FIS’ business, reputation and customer relationships, which in turn could adversely affect its financial position and performance.

Specifically, the PSR has announced it will carry out a market review into card-acquiring services provided by merchant acquirers in the U.K. with the scope of such review to include: the nature and characteristics of card-acquiring services; who provides card-acquiring services and how their market shares have developed historically; how merchants buy card-acquiring services; whether there are credible alternatives to card-acquiring services for some or all merchants; the outcomes of the competitive process including the fees merchants pay and the quality of service they receive. Because the PSR is an economic regulator in the U.K., it has the power to issue directions in relation to the functioning of the card acquiring market in the U.K. as a result of this review. Further, the European Commission is conducting a review of the Regulation of the European Parliament and the Council on interchange fees for card-based payment transactions (IFR) to examine the appropriateness of the levels of interchange fees (taking into account the use and cost of the various means of payments), the level of entry of new players, new technology and the impact of innovative business models on the market. The primary purpose of this review is to understand whether overall costs for card acceptance for merchants, including the overall merchant service charge, have gone up, down or broadly stayed the same since the introduction of the IFR. The E.U. has overall authority to enforce and establish new standards or guidance which may require banks and payments institutions, including Worldpay as part of FIS following the merger, to modify current pricing and fee structures, and the E.U. could choose to exercise such authority prior to or after conclusion of this review.


Worldpay may fail to realize the anticipated benefits and operating synergies expected from its 2018 acquisition of Worldpay Group plc, which could adversely affect FIS’ business, financial condition and operating results following the merger.

The success of Worldpay’s acquisition of Worldpay Group plc depends, in significant part, on its ability to successfully integrate the acquired business, grow its revenue and realize the anticipated strategic benefits and synergies. Achieving Worldpay’s strategic goals for the acquisition requires growth of the revenue and realization of the targeted operating synergies expected from the acquisition. This growth and the anticipated benefits may not be realized fully or at all, or may take longer to realize than Worldpay expects. Actual operating, technological, strategic and revenue opportunities, if achieved at all, may be less significant than Worldpay expects or may take longer to achieve than anticipated and could be impacted by its inability to renew certain business relationships maintained by Worldpay Group plc on terms favorable to Worldpay or at all. If the combined company is not able to achieve these objectives and realize the anticipated benefits and synergies expected from the acquisition within a reasonable time, its business, financial condition and operating results may be adversely affected.

Worldpay’s acquisition of Worldpay Group plc has resulted in significant integration costs and any material delays or unanticipated additional expenses may harm FIS’ business, financial condition and results of operations post-merger.

The complexity and magnitude of the integration effort associated with Worldpay’s acquisition of Worldpay Group plc are significant and, following the merger, require that FIS fund significant capital and operating expenses to support the integration of the combined operations. Such expenses have included significant transaction, consulting and third party service fees. Worldpay incurred integration planning costs during 2017 and 2018 and, following the merger, FIS anticipates that it may incur additional integration implementation costs in the future. Following the merger, FIS expects to continue to incur additional operating expenses while it continues to integrate the combined company. The integration of the departments, systems, business units, operating procedures and information technologies of the two businesses continue to present certain challenges to management. There can be no assurance that FIS following the merger, will be able to continue to integrate and manage these operations effectively or that such operations, once fully-integrated, will provide the benefits it anticipates.

In addition to transition costs, following the merger FIS expects to continue to incur increased expenses. Any material delays, difficulties or unanticipated additional expenses associated with integration activities, or the failure to successfully integrate the business in a timely manner, or at all, may harm FIS’ business, financial condition and results of operations.

If the Worldpay business fails to comply with the applicable requirements of the Visa, Mastercard or other payment networks, those payment networks could seek to fine the combined company, suspend the Worldpay business or terminate its registrations through its financial institution sponsors or directly. Fines could have a material adverse effect on FIS’ business, financial condition or results of operations, and if these registrations are terminated, the combined company may not be able to conduct its business.

In order to provide Worldpay’s transaction processing services in the U.S. and certain other jurisdictions, Worldpay is registered through its bank sponsorships with the Visa, Mastercard and other payment networks as service providers for member institutions. Worldpay and many of its clients are subject to payment network rules. If Worldpay or its associated participants do not comply with the payment network requirements, the payment networks could seek to fine Worldpay, suspend Worldpay or terminate its registrations. Worldpay has occasionally received notices of noncompliance and fines, which have typically related to excessive chargebacks by a merchant or data security failures on the part of a merchant. If Worldpay is unable to recover fines from or pass through costs to its merchants or other associated participants, then following the merger FIS would experience a financial loss. The termination of its registration, or any changes in the payment network rules that would impair Worldpay’s registration, could require Worldpay to stop providing payment network services to the Visa, Mastercard or other payment networks, which would have a material adverse effect on FIS’ business, financial condition and results of operations following the merger.

Outside of the U.S., Worldpay primarily provides acquiring and processing services directly, through international credit and debit card schemes run by Visa, Mastercard and other payment networks. In order to access the card schemes’ networks Worldpay must maintain the relevant jurisdictional operating licenses or memberships. In some markets where it is not feasible or possible for Worldpay to have a direct acquiring license with a card scheme, Worldpay has a relationship with a local financial institution sponsor. As part of Worldpay’s registration with card schemes (either directly or indirectly through local sponsors), Worldpay is subject to operating rules, including mandatory technology requirements, promulgated by the card schemes that could subject Worldpay and its customers to a variety of fines and penalties, as well as suspension and termination of membership or access. Furthermore, to access these card scheme networks, Worldpay must pay card scheme membership fees, which are subject to change from time to time, and which Worldpay may be unable to pass along to its customers, which could result in the combined company absorbing a portion or all of such increases in the future.

Changes in the contracts, rules or standards of payment networks and card schemes could adversely affect FIS’ post-merger business, financial condition and results of operations.

Payment network and card scheme rules are established and changed from time to time by each payment network or card scheme, as applicable, as they may determine in their sole discretion and with or without advance notice to their participants. In the case of card scheme rules, failure to comply in a timely manner with rule changes could result in fines, penalties or reputational damage, and could negatively impact Worldpay’s licenses in various jurisdictions. In some cases, payment networks and card schemes compete with Worldpay, and their ability to modify and enhance their rules in their sole discretion may provide them an advantage in selling or developing their own services that may compete directly or indirectly with Worldpay’s services. Any changes in the rules or standards of these payment networks and card schemes, or the way they are implemented, could increase the cost of doing business or limit the ability to provide transaction processing services to or through Worldpay’s clients and have a material adverse effect on FIS’ business, financial condition and results of operations.

Moreover, as payment networks and card schemes become more dependent on proprietary technology, modify their technological approach or operating practices, and/or seek to provide value added services to issuers and merchants, there is heightened risk that rules and standards may be governed by their own self-interest, or the self-interest of third parties with influence over them, which could materially impact FIS’ competitive position and operations.

If Worldpay cannot pass along to its merchants increases in interchange and other fees from payment networks or card schemes, the operating margins of the Worldpay business would be reduced.

Worldpay pays interchange, assessment, transaction and other fees set by the payment networks and card schemes to such networks and schemes and, in some cases, to the card issuing financial institutions for each transaction Worldpay processes. From time to time, the payment networks and card schemes increase the interchange fees and other fees that they charge payment processors and the financial institution sponsors. At their sole discretion, Worldpay’s financial institution sponsors have the right to pass any increases in interchange and other fees on to Worldpay and they have consistently done so in the past. Worldpay is generally permitted under the contracts into which it enters, and in the past Worldpay has been able to, pass these fee increases along to its merchants through corresponding increases in Worldpay’s processing fees. However, if Worldpay is unable to pass through these and other fees in the future, the inability to pass through such fees could have a material adverse effect on FIS’ post-merger business, financial condition and results of operations.

Furthermore, in order to access the card schemes directly, as Worldpay does primarily outside the U.S., Worldpay must pay card scheme membership fees, which are subject to change from time to time, and which Worldpay may be unable to pass along to its merchants, potentially resulting in FIS absorbing a portion or all of such increases in the future.

If Worldpay’s agreements with U.S. financial institution sponsors and clearing service providers to process electronic payment transactions are terminated or otherwise expire and Worldpay is unable to renew existing or secure new sponsors or clearing service providers, Worldpay will not be able to conduct its business in the United States.

In the United States and certain other markets, the Visa, Mastercard and other payment network rules require Worldpay to be sponsored by a member bank in order to process electronic payment transactions. Because Worldpay is not a U.S. bank, Worldpay is unable to directly access these payment networks in the U.S. Worldpay is currently registered with the Visa, Mastercard and other payment networks through Fifth Third Bank in the U.S. and other sponsor banks elsewhere. Worldpay’s current agreement with Fifth Third Bank expires in December 2024. These agreements with Fifth Third Bank and other sponsors give such sponsors substantial discretion in approving certain aspects of Worldpay’s business practices, including Worldpay’s solicitation, application and qualification procedures for merchants and the terms of Worldpay’s agreements with merchants. Worldpay’s financial institution sponsors’ discretionary actions under these agreements could have a material adverse effect on Worldpay’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Worldpay also relies on Fifth Third Bank and various other financial institutions to provide clearing services in connection with Worldpay’s settlement activities. Without these sponsorships or clearing services agreements, Worldpay would not be able to process Visa, Mastercard and other payment network transactions or settle transactions in relevant markets, including the U.S. which would have a material adverse effect on FIS’ business, financial condition and results of operations. Furthermore, FIS’ financial results could be adversely affected if the costs associated with such sponsorships or clearing services agreements increase.


Increased merchant, financial institution or referral partner attrition and decreased transaction volume could cause FIS’ post-merger revenues to decline.

Worldpay may experience attrition and declines in merchant and financial institution credit, debit or prepaid card processing volume resulting from several factors, including business closures, consolidations, loss of accounts to competitors, account closures that it initiates due to heightened credit risks, and reductions in its merchants’ sales volumes. Worldpay’s referral partners, many of which are not exclusive, such as merchant banks, technology solution partners, payment facilitators, independent sales organizations and trade associations are contributors to Worldpay’s revenue growth in its Merchant Solutions and Technology Solutions segments. If a referral partner switches to another transaction processor, shuts down or becomes insolvent, Worldpay will no longer receive new merchant referrals from the referral partner, and Worldpay risks losing existing merchants that were originally enrolled by the referral partner. FIS cannot predict the level of attrition and decreased transaction volume in the future and its revenues could decline as a result of higher than expected attrition, which could have a material adverse effect on FIS’ business, financial condition and results of operations.

Fraud by merchants or others could have a material adverse effect on FIS’ business, financial condition and results of operations following the merger.

Worldpay faces potential liability for fraudulent electronic payment transactions initiated by merchants, third parties or other associated participants. Examples of merchant fraud include when a merchant or other party knowingly accepts payment by a stolen or counterfeit credit, debit or prepaid card, card number or other credentials records a false sales transaction utilizing a stolen or counterfeit card or credentials, processes an invalid card, or intentionally fails to deliver the merchandise or services sold in an otherwise valid transaction. In the event a dispute between a cardholder and a merchant is not resolved in favor of the merchant, the transaction is normally charged back to the merchant and the purchase price is credited or otherwise refunded to the cardholder. Failure to effectively manage risk and prevent fraud would increase Worldpay’s chargeback liability or other liability. In addition, beginning October 2015, U.S. merchants that cannot process EMV chip-based cards are held financially responsible for certain fraudulent transactions conducted using such cards. This will likely increase the amount of risk for merchants who are not yet EMV-compliant and could result in the Worldpay business having to seek increased chargebacks from such merchants. Increases in chargebacks or other liability could have a material adverse effect on FIS’ business, financial condition and results of operations following the merger.

Worldpay’s operating results are subject to seasonality, which could result in fluctuations in FIS’ quarterly net income.

Worldpay has experienced in the past, and expects to continue to experience, seasonal fluctuations in its revenues as a result of consumer spending patterns. Historically Worldpay’s revenues have been strongest in its fourth quarter, and weakest in its first quarter. This is due to the increase in the number and amount of electronic payment transactions related to seasonal retail events.

Worldpay is party to tax receivable agreements and the amounts it may be required to pay under these agreements are expected to be significant. In certain cases, payments under the tax receivable agreements may be accelerated and/or significantly exceed the actual benefits FIS realizes following the merger in respect of the tax attributes subject to the tax receivable agreements.

Worldpay is party to tax receivable agreements (“TRAs”). As of June 30, 2019, Worldpay has a liability recorded of approximately $918.7 million associated with the TRAs. It is possible that future transactions or events, including changes in tax rates, could increase or decrease the actual tax benefits realized and the corresponding TRA payments. There may be a material adverse effect on FIS’ liquidity if, as a result of timing discrepancies or otherwise, distributions to Worldpay by Worldpay Holding are not sufficient to permit Worldpay to make payments under the TRAs.

The TRAs provide that, upon certain mergers, asset sales, other forms of business combination or certain other changes of control, Worldpay’s obligations to make payments with respect to tax benefits would be based on certain assumptions, including that Worldpay would have sufficient taxable income to fully use the NOLs or deductions arising from increased tax basis of assets. As a result, following the merger FIS could be required to make payments under the TRAs that are greater than 85% of Worldpay’s actual tax savings.

If the Internal Revenue Service, or the IRS, challenges the tax basis increases or NOLs that give rise to payments under the TRAs and the tax basis increases or NOLs are subsequently disallowed, payments under the TRAs could exceed its actual tax savings, and the combined company may not be able to recoup previous payments under the TRAs that were calculated on the assumption that the disallowed tax savings were available.


Litigation relating to the merger transactions could (i) require FIS and/or Worldpay to incur significant costs and suffer management distraction, (ii) delay and/or enjoin the merger and/or (iii) result in the payment of damages or other remedies.

Following the initial filing, on April 15, 2019, of the registration statement on Form S-4, on April 30, 2019, a purported Worldpay stockholder filed a putative class action complaint, captioned Sabatini v. Worldpay, Inc., et al., Case No. 1:19-cv-00794-LPS, against Worldpay, its directors, FIS and Merger Sub in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware. The complaint asserts a claim for violations of Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act and SEC Rule 14a-9 against Worldpay and its directors and a claim for violations of Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act against the Worldpay directors and FIS. The complaint alleges, among other things, that Worldpay and its directors disseminated an allegedly false and materially misleading registration statement on Form S-4. The complaint seeks, among other things, to enjoin the merger, a declaration that the registration statement violated federal securities laws, unspecified damages, and an award of attorneys’ and experts’ fees.

On May 1, 2019, a purported Worldpay stockholder filed a second complaint, captioned Stein v. Worldpay, Inc., et al., Case No. 1:19-cv-00813-LPS, against Worldpay and its directors in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware. The complaint asserts a claim for violations of Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act, SEC Rule 14a-9, and 17 C.F.R. § 244.100 against Worldpay and its directors and a claim for violations of Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act against the Worldpay directors. The complaint alleges, among other things, that Worldpay and its directors disseminated an allegedly false and materially misleading registration statement on Form S-4. The complaint seeks, among other things, to enjoin the merger, unspecified damages, and an award of attorneys’ and experts’ fees.

On June 4, 2019, a purported Worldpay stockholder filed a third complaint, captioned Johnson v. Worldpay, Inc., et al., Case No. 1:19-cv-01034-UNA, against Worldpay and its directors in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware. The complaint asserts a claim for violations of Section 14(a) of the Exchange Act and SEC Rule 14a-9 against Worldpay and its directors and a claim for violations of Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act against the Worldpay directors. The complaint alleges, among other things, that Worldpay and its directors disseminated an allegedly false and materially misleading registration statement on Form S-4. The complaint seeks, among other things, to enjoin the merger, a declaration that the registration statement violated federal securities laws, unspecified damages, and an award of attorneys’ and experts’ fees.

The outcome of any such action is uncertain. If the actions remain unresolved, they could result in significant costs to Worldpay and/or FIS, including costs associated with the indemnification of their respective directors and officers. Other plaintiffs may also file lawsuits against FIS, Worldpay, Merger Sub and/or directors and officers thereof in connection with the merger, requiring FIS, Worldpay, Merger Sub and their respective directors and officers to defend against multiple lawsuits potentially filed in different jurisdictions. The defense or settlement of any lawsuits or claims relating to the merger transactions may adversely affect the combined company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
