32 rewritten, 16 added, 5 removed, 207 unchanged
We provide technology solutions to financial services firms that are generally subject to extensive regulation [removed: in the U.S. and in other jurisdictions.][added: globally.]
Changes in laws and regulations could require changes in the services we provide, the manner in which we provide our services, [added: and] the fees we charge for our services, or they could result in a reduction or elimination of the demand for our services.
[removed: For example, our] [added: Our] investor communications services and the fees we charge our clients for certain services are subject to change if applicable SEC or stock exchange [removed: rules or] [added: rules,] regulations [added: or interpretations] are amended, or new laws or regulations are [removed: adopted] [added: adopted,] that change the [removed: proxy materials, regulatory disclosures, or other] communications [removed: issuers] [added: our clients] are required to send or the manner in which they send [removed: them.][added: them, including a change in default delivery method from paper to digital.]
[removed: Therefore,] [added: Some of] our services, such as our [removed: proxy,] [added: proxy communications,] shareholder report and prospectus distribution, and [added: other regulatory or] customer communications services, are particularly sensitive to changes in laws and regulations, including those governing the financial services industry and the securities markets.
In addition, new regulations governing our clients could result in significant expenditures that could cause them to reduce their use of our services, seek to renegotiate existing agreements, [removed: or] cease or curtail their operations, [added: or otherwise alter their business relationship with us,] all of which could adversely impact our business.
Further, an adverse regulatory action that changes a client’s business or adversely affects its financial [removed: condition,] [added: condition] could decrease their ability to purchase, or their demand [removed: for,] [added: for] our products and services.
The [removed: loss] [added: loss, or significant reduction,] of business from any of our larger clients could have a material adverse effect on our revenues and results of operations.
In addition, it is possible that the larger financial institutions resulting from mergers or consolidations could decide to perform in-house some or all of the services that we currently provide or could [removed: provide.][added: provide to them.]
In fiscal year [removed: 2024,] [added: 2025,] our largest client accounted for approximately [removed: 8%] [added: 7%] of our consolidated revenues.
Such costs for all clients represented approximately [removed: 11%] [added: 10%] of our total assets as of June 30, [removed: 2024,] [added: 2025,] with one client representing a large portion of this amount.
If we fail to maintain an adequate information security program or implement sufficient security standards, technology or controls to protect against information security incidents or privacy breaches [removed: and] [added: or fail to] identify and adapt to emerging security threats and risks, it could cause us to lose revenues, lose clients and/or damage to our reputation.
Further, as a provider of technology services to financial institutions, certain aspects of our U.S. operations are subject to regulatory [removed: oversight and] examination by the FFIEC.
As a provider of data and business processing solutions, our systems contain a significant amount of sensitive data, including personal information, related to our clients, customers of our clients, [removed: and] our [removed: employees.][added: employees, among others.]
Furthermore, the changing nature of privacy laws in the U.S., the European Union and elsewhere could impact our processing of personal [removed: information of our employees and on behalf of our clients.][added: information.]
[removed: In addition, if] [added: If] we fail to comply with applicable regulations and maintain practices that meet our stakeholders’ [removed: evolving] [added: evolving, and potentially divergent,] expectations, it could harm our reputation, adversely affect our ability to attract and retain employees or clients and expose us to increased scrutiny from investors and regulatory authorities.
We rely on these third parties, including for the provision of certain data center and cloud services, to provide services in a timely and accurate manner and to adequately address their own risks, including those related to [removed: cybersecurity.][added: cybersecurity and physical security.]
Failure by these third parties to adequately perform their services as expected could result in material interruptions in our [removed: operations,] [added: operations] and negatively impact our services resulting in a material adverse effect on our business and financial results.
Furthermore, certain third-party service providers or vendors may have access to [added: or process] sensitive data [removed: including] [added: such as] personal information, valuable intellectual property and other proprietary or confidential data, [removed: including that] [added: which may include data] provided to us by our clients.
Our clients operate in highly regulated industries and rely on our services to meet some of their regulatory [removed: requirements.][added: requirements and the demands of their customers.]
In addition, the inability to properly perform our services or errors in the performance of our services could result in a decline in confidence in our products and [removed: services] [added: services, legal action,] and cause us to incur expenses including service penalties, lose revenues, lose clients or damage our reputation.
- legislative and regulatory changes; [added: including executive orders and similar directives]
- acts of war or terrorism and international conflict, such as the [removed: conflict between] [added: ongoing conflicts in the Middle East,] Russia and Ukraine;
In fact, over the last three fiscal years we have completed [removed: four] [added: three] acquisitions and made strategic investments in seven firms.
- *valuation*: finding suitable businesses to acquire at affordable [removed: valuations or on other acceptable terms;] [added: valuations;] competition for acquisitions from other potential acquirors, [removed: and] negotiating a fair price for the business based on inherently limited due diligence reviews; [added: and structuring transactions on acceptable terms;]
- *integration*: managing the complex process of integrating the acquired company’s people, products, technology, and other assets, and converting their financial, information security, privacy and other systems and controls to meet our standards, so as to achieve intended strategic objectives and realize the projected value, synergies and other benefits in connection with the acquisition; [added: The process of integrating these businesses may be difficult] and [added: expensive, disrupt our business and divert our resources.]
- entering markets where we have minimal prior experience; [removed: and]
- experiencing decreases in earnings as a result of non-cash impairment [removed: charges.][added: charges;]
- complying with [removed: non-U.S.] regulatory requirements;
- enforcing intellectual property [removed: rights in some non-U.S. countries;] [added: rights;] and
As of June 30, [removed: 2024,] [added: 2025,] we had [removed: $3,355.1] [added: $3,252.3] million in aggregate carrying amount of total debt.
Additionally, our revolving credit facility has a remaining borrowing capacity of [removed: $1,500.0] [added: $1,366.5] million as of June 30, [removed: 2024.][added: 2025.]
Goodwill, intangible assets, net, and deferred client conversion and start-up costs accounted for approximately [removed: 69%] [added: 67%] of the total assets on our balance sheet as of June 30, [removed: 2024.][added: 2025.]
Some of our clients and third-party vendors have experienced cybersecurity incidents.
These stakeholders may have differing expectations or requirements regarding sustainability, and applicable regulations in various jurisdictions may be inconsistent or conflict with one another, presenting additional challenges to compliance.
Our use and incorporation of a broad range of artificial intelligence technologies in our products, services, and operations present risks, uncertainties, and challenges that could adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
Our ability to attract and retain clients depends on our capacity to develop and support innovative products and services, including through developing or deploying emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence.
Some of our products, services and processes leverage AI, including both machine learning and Generative AI, and we continue to make investments in initiatives focused on the further development and deployment of these technologies.
However, there is no assurance that our use or development of AI will enhance our products or services or their marketability, improve operating results, or deliver anticipated benefits, and our product development initiatives involving AI may be unsuccessful.
While implementation of these technologies offers the potential for innovation and competitive differentiation, it also poses significant risks and uncertainties, especially given its early stage of commercial adoption.
The use of AI in our product initiatives and offerings or services, or in our internal business operations, may give rise to risks related to accuracy, bias, discrimination, intellectual property infringement, misappropriation or leakage of proprietary, confidential and personal information, defamation, data privacy, and cybersecurity.
Any error, defect, or vulnerability in our AI-powered products or business processes could undermine the quality of our products and services, adversely impact our clients’ businesses, subject us or our clients to regulatory scrutiny, fines or litigation and cause reputational harm.
We are exposed to similar risks in connection with the use of AI technology by our third-party vendors and clients.
These technologies are subject to an evolving and fragmented legal and regulatory landscape.
The absence of a unified regulatory framework, and the risk of divergent or conflicting regulations across jurisdictions applicable to our business, could increase the complexity and costs of compliance for us and our clients.
New or changing legal requirements may limit or restrict our use of AI, impose burdensome obligations, or require us to modify or discontinue certain offerings.
Any of these factors, alone or in combination, could adversely affect our business, reputation, or results of operations.
- trade policies, disputes, barriers and other restrictions
Any of these factors, alone or in combination, may result in unanticipated obligations, disputes, exposure to litigation and regulatory action and adversely affect our business, reputation, or results of operations.
In addition, some of our products, services and processes leverage machine learning and AI.
The use of such technology is subject to risk and may result in insufficient or inaccurate information.
These deficiencies could undermine the quality of these products and services provided to our clients, subjecting us to legal liability and reputational damage.
Also, the process of integrating these businesses may be difficult and expensive, disrupt our business and divert our resources.
In addition, international acquisitions often involve additional or increased risks including, for example:

- Event-driven revenues increased $34.0 million, or 12% driven by a higher volume of mutual fund communications partially offset by a lower level of equity proxy contest activity.
- Distribution revenues increased $63.0 million, or 3%, driven by the postage rate increase of approximately $114 million partially offset by lower mail volumes.
Operating expenses rose 4%, or $151.5 million, to $4,059.0 million driven by the impact of the postage rate increase and higher volume related expenses.
Fiscal Year 2025 Compared to Fiscal Year 2024
| 2025 | | | | | | 2024 | | | | | | Change | | | | | | | | | | | |
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025:
Internal Growth benefited from higher trading volumes.
Assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations are recorded on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets as of the respective acquisition date based upon the estimated fair values at such date.
The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the underlying assets acquired and liabilities assumed is allocated to Goodwill.
AdvisorTarget
In May 2024, the Company acquired AdvisorTarget, a market leader in providing asset management and wealth management firms with data products to help power digital marketing, sales and engagement programs targeting financial advisors.
The aggregate purchase price included $34.3 million in cash, $1.0 million in deferred payments, $1.6 million for the settlement of a preexisting relationship, and contingent consideration with a maximum potential pay-out of $30.5 million.
The contingent consideration is payable through fiscal year 2028 upon the achievement by the acquired business of certain defined revenue targets.
Net tangible liabilities assumed in the transaction were $3.1 million, and contingent liabilities incurred were valued at $14.0 million.
This acquisition resulted in $41.8 million of Goodwill, which is tax deductible.
Intangible assets acquired, which totaled $12.1 million, consist primarily of software technology and customer relationships, which are being amortized over a five-year life.
Kyndryl Securities Industry Services (“Kyndryl SIS”)
In May 2024, Broadridge announced the proposed acquisition of Kyndryl SIS to provide wealth management, capital markets, and information technology solutions to the Canadian financial services industry, expanding our product offerings in our Global Technology and Operations segment.
The total purchase price is approximately $200 million.
Beginning with the first quarter of fiscal year 2023, the Company changed reporting for segment revenues, segment earnings (loss) before income taxes, and segment amortization of acquired intangibles and purchased intellectual property to reflect the impact of actual foreign exchange rates applicable to the individual periods presented.
The presentation of these metrics for the prior periods provided in this Form 10-K has been changed to conform to the current period presentation.
Total consolidated revenues and earnings before income taxes were not impacted.
The remaining $38.8 million of carryforwards has an indefinite utilization period.

8 rewritten, 1 added, 0 removed, 10 unchanged
As of June 30, [removed: 2024, $1,117.9] [added: 2025, $1,012.6] million, or [removed: 33%,] [added: 31%,] of the Company’s total outstanding debt balance of [removed: $3,355.1] [added: $3,252.3] million is based on floating interest rates.
Our [removed: $1,117.9] [added: $1,012.6] million in variable rate debt at June 30, [removed: 2024] [added: 2025] consists of [added: our revolving credit facility, which, depending on] the [added: currency of the loan, bears interest at Adjusted Term SOFR, Adjusted Term CORRA, EURIBOR, TIBOR, SONIA and STIBOR, respectively, plus 1.000% (subject to multiple step-ups to 1.250% and multiple step-downs to 0.785%, in each case based on ratings), plus an additional annual facility fee of 0.125% per annum (subject to multiple step-ups to 0.25% per annum and multiple step-downs to 0.090% per annum, in each case, based on ratings), and the] outstanding portion of our Fiscal 2024 Amended Term Loan which bears interest at Adjusted Term SOFR plus 1.250% per annum (subject to a step-up to Adjusted Term SOFR plus 1.375% or step-downs to Adjusted Term SOFR plus 1.125% and Adjusted Term SOFR plus 1.000% in each case, based on ratings).
We have assessed our exposure to changes in interest rates by analyzing the sensitivity to our earnings of a change in market interest rates on amounts borrowed from the revolving credit facility and Fiscal 2024 Amended Term [removed: Loans] [added: Loan] during the fiscal year ended June 30, [removed: 2024.][added: 2025.]
Assuming a hypothetical increase of one hundred basis points in interest rates on our variable rate debt during the fiscal year ended June 30, [removed: 2024] [added: 2025] and June 30, [removed: 2023,] [added: 2024,] our pre-tax earnings would have decreased by approximately [removed: $14.4] [added: $13.8] million and [removed: $18.7] [added: $14.4] million, respectively; however, for both years, this would have been offset by interest earned on cash balances.
While the substantial majority of our business is conducted within the U.S., approximately 14% of our fiscal year [removed: 2024] [added: 2025] revenues were earned outside of the U.S. Our operations outside of the U.S. primarily reside in Canada, Europe and India.
At June 30, [removed: 2024,] [added: 2025,] the fair value of these derivatives is [removed: an asset] [added: a liability] of [removed: $59.9] [added: $24.6] million.

For the fiscal year ended June 30, [removed: 2024] [added: 2025] and June 30, [removed: 2023,] [added: 2024,] a hypothetical 10% decrease in the value of the Canadian dollar, the British pound, the Euro, the Indian Rupee, and the Swedish Krona versus the U.S. dollar would have resulted in a decrease in our total pre-tax earnings of approximately [removed: $22.5] [added: $23.9] million and [removed: $15.2] [added: $22.5] million, respectively.

Our cybersecurity risk management program is integrated into our overall enterprise risk management (“ERM”) process which provides an ongoing procedure, effected at all levels of the Company [added: and] across business units and corporate functions, to identify and assess risk, monitor risk, and take appropriate mitigating action.
Central to our risk management process is the Risk Committee, [removed: which is] a management committee that oversees the identification and assessment of the key risks affecting our operations and reviews the controls established with respect to these risks.
The Risk Committee is comprised of key members of management, including the President, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Legal Officer, Chief Information Security Officer, Chief [removed: Privacy] [added: Technology] Officer, [added: Chief Compliance Officer,] and other senior executives of the Company.
- leverage encryption, data masking technology, data loss prevention technology, authentication technology, entitlement management, access control, network and application segmentation, anti-malware software, and transmission of data over private networks, among other systems and [removed: procedures] [added: procedures,] designed to protect against unauthorized access to information;
- maintain global information security policies and procedures, including an incident response and crisis management plan [removed: which] [added: that] include processes to triage, assess, investigate, escalate, contain, and remediate cybersecurity incidents.
We further describe whether and how risks from identified cybersecurity threats, including as a result of any previous cybersecurity incidents, have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect us, including our business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition, under the heading “Security breaches or cybersecurity incidents could adversely affect our [added: financial results and our] ability to operate, could result in personal, confidential or proprietary information being misappropriated, and may cause us to be held liable or suffer harm to our [removed: reputation.,”] [added: reputation,”] included as part of our risk factor disclosures at Item [removed: 1A of this Annual Report on Form 10-K, which disclosures are incorporated by reference herein.][added: 1A.]

The responsibilities of the Company’s Board [removed: of Directors (“Board”)] include oversight of our risk management processes.
The first method is [removed: through] the ERM process through which the Board receives regular reports from management regarding the most significant risks facing the Company.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, [removed: 2024] [added: 2025] and [removed: 2023,] [added: 2024,] and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, [removed: 2024,] [added: 2025,] in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Also, in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, [removed: 2024,] [added: 2025,] based on criteria established in *Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013)* issued by COSO.
| Critical Audit Matter Description The Company’s evaluation of goodwill for impairment involves the comparison of the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value. The Company determines the fair value of its reporting units using the income approach, which considers a discounted future cash flow analysis using various assumptions, including projections of revenues based on assumed long-term growth rates and projections of earnings before interest and taxes, estimated costs and appropriate discount rates based on the particular reporting unit’s weighted-average cost of capital. The principal factors used in the discounted cash flow analysis requiring judgment are the projected future operating cash flows based on forecasted earnings before interest and taxes, including projections of revenues, and the selection of the terminal value growth rate and discount rate assumptions. During fiscal year [removed: 2024,] [added: 2025,] the Company performed the required impairment tests of goodwill and determined that there was no impairment. The Company also performed a sensitivity analysis under Step 1 of the goodwill impairment test assuming hypothetical reductions in the fair values of the reporting units. A 10% change in their estimates of projected future operating cash flows, discount rates, or terminal value growth rates used in their calculations of the fair values of the reporting units would not result in an impairment of their goodwill. Auditing the fair value of a reporting unit within the Global Technology Operations (GTO) segment involved a high degree of subjectivity, including the need to involve our fair value specialists, as it relates to evaluating whether management’s judgments in determining whether the projected future operating cash flows based on forecasted earnings before interest and taxes, including projections of revenues, selection of terminal value growth rates and the weighted-average cost of capital used to determine the discount rates were appropriate. | | |

Pursuant to provisions under the Inflation Reduction Act, the Company purchased transferable federal tax credits during fiscal year 2025.
Such federal tax credits were purchased at negotiated discounts, resulting in an income tax benefit recorded during the year ended June 30, 2025.
Purchased tax credits that will offset the current income tax liability are recorded as an adjustment to income taxes payable or refundable.
The cash payments made for income taxes as disclosed on the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows include amounts paid to third parties for the purchase of tax credits.
On July 4, 2025, the U.S. government enacted The One Big Beautiful Bill Act of 2025 which includes, among other provisions, changes to the U.S. corporate income tax system including the allowance of immediate expensing of qualifying research and development expenses and permanent extensions of certain provisions within the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act.
Certain provisions are effective for Broadridge beginning with the fiscal year ending June 30, 2026.
We are evaluating the future impact of these tax law changes on our financial statements.
The adoption of ASU No. 2023-07 impacted disclosures only.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03, “Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses”, which requires an entity to disclose additional information about specific expense categories.
ASU No. 2024-03 is effective for the Company in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2028.
The amendments in this ASU must be applied either (1) prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this ASU or (2) retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements.
Upon adoption, this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
Early adoption of the amendments is permitted.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-08, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Crypto Assets (Subtopic 350-60): Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets” (“ASU 2023-08”), which addresses the accounting and disclosure requirements for certain crypto assets.
ASU 2023-08 requires entities to measure crypto assets that meet specific criteria at fair value, with changes recognized in net income each reporting period.
Under current accounting requirements, the Company’s crypto asset holdings are accounted for as indefinite-lived intangible assets in accordance with ASC 350, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other”.
The assets are carried at cost and reviewed for impairment if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable.
The current cost basis of the crypto assets is immaterial.

Beginning with the first quarter of fiscal year 2023, the Company changed reporting for segment revenues, segment earnings (loss) before income taxes, and segment amortization of acquired intangibles and purchased intellectual property to reflect the impact of actual foreign exchange rates applicable to the individual periods presented.
The presentation of these metrics for the prior periods provided in this Form 10-K has been changed to conform to the current period presentation.
Total consolidated revenues and earnings before income taxes were not impacted.
In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-08, “Business Combinations: Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers” (“ASU No. 2021-08”), which requires that an entity (acquirer) recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers.
The Company is currently assessing the impact that the adoption of ASU No. 2023-07 will have on its Consolidated Financial Statements.
The allocation of the purchase price will be finalized upon completion of the analysis of the fair values of the acquired business’ assets and liabilities.
