EQUIFAX INC

Equifax released its 2024 Global Consumer Credit Trends Report, showcasing its data and analytics capabilities [1]. Despite this positive development, the company missed Q4 revenue and EPS expectations, leading to a significant stock price drop and a "Strong Sell" rating from Zacks [3], [10]. While some analysts consider the stock undervalued due to projected future growth and innovative solutions like The Work Number Report Indicator [8], [9], the company faces challenges including regulatory scrutiny, low liquidity, and weaker-than-expected financial performance [3], [5]. Broader market concerns and Equifax's proposed governance simplification have also contributed to stock volatility [2], [6].
