Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
On April 11, 2007, CheckFree Corporation (the “Company”) issued a press release in response to a recent report regarding one of its largest customers.
Pursuant to General Instruction F of Form 8-K, a copy of the press releases issued by the Company on April 11, 2007 (the “Press Release”) is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. The information in this Item 7.01 of Form 8-K, as well as Exhibit 99.1, shall not be treated as “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain of the Company’s statements in the press release are not purely historical, and as such are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These include statements regarding management’s intentions, plans, beliefs, expectations or projections of the future, and include statements regarding the possibility of our customers’ pursuing in-house solutions for a portion of our services (paragraphs 2, 3 and 4). Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, including without limitation, the various risks inherent in the Company’s business, and other risks and uncertainties detailed from time to time in the Company’s periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2006 (filed September 8, 2006), Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2006 (filed November 8, 2006), and Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2006 (filed February 8, 2007). One or more of these factors have affected, and could in the future affect the Company’s business and financial results in future periods, and could cause actual results to differ materially from plans and projections. There can be no assurance that the forward-looking statements made in the press release will prove to be accurate, and issuance of such forward-looking statements should not be regarded as a representation by the Company, or any other person, that the objectives and plans of the Company will be achieved. All forward-looking statements made in the press release are based on information presently available to management, and the Company assumes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements.
