Item 2. Properties

At December 31, 2025, we owned 16 and leased 120 properties globally. Our real estate strategy includes developing centralized campus environments in strategic locations, including in Florida, Georgia, Nebraska, New Jersey, Wisconsin and Dublin, Ireland. These locations are used for operational, data center, sales, management and administrative purposes. As a normal part of our business operations, including in connection with the integration of companies that we acquire, we regularly review our real estate portfolio. We may choose to acquire or dispose of properties in order to maintain a real estate footprint designed to maximize collaboration, innovation and communication in ways that enable us to best serve our clients and to create more opportunities for professional growth and development for our associates.
