Consolidation and Basis of Presentation Consolidation and Basis of Presentation. The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the U.S. and in accordance with SEC requirements for Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. These financial statements present the condensed consolidated position of the Company and include the entities in which the Company directly or indirectly has a controlling financial interest, entities in which the Company has investments recorded under the equity method of accounting as well as certain marketable and non-marketable securities. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Amounts presented may not sum due to rounding. The results of operations reported for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the entire year or any subsequent interim period. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025 filed with the SEC on August 5 2025. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation in accordance with GAAP of the Company’s financial position on March 31, 2026 and June 30, 2025, the results of its operations for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, its cash flows for the nine months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, and its changes in stockholders’ equity for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.
Securities Securities. Securities are non-derivatives that are reflected in Other non-current assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, unless management intends to dispose of the investment within twelve months of the end of the reporting period, in which case they are reflected in Other current assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. These investments are in entities over which the Company does not have control, joint control, or significant influence. Securities that have a readily determinable fair value are carried at fair value. Securities without a readily determinable fair value are initially recognized at cost and subsequently carried at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in transactions for an identical or similar investment of the same issuer, such as subsequent capital raising transactions. Changes in the value of securities with or without a readily determinable fair value are recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. In determining whether a security without a readily determinable fair value is impaired, management considers qualitative factors to identify an impairment including the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer.
Digital Assets Digital Assets. As part of its investment in its Distributed Ledger Repo solution, the Company has engaged with the Canton Network’s decentralized interoperability structure. Beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024, the Company performs services as a Super Validator and Validator on the Global Synchronizer, the Canton Network’s decentralized interoperability infrastructure. The Canton Network is a public-permissioned blockchain network designed with privacy and controls to facilitate the exchange of regulated financial assets. The Canton Network’s Global Synchronizer includes a utility token, a digital asset called the Canton Coin, which is used to pay traffic fees for using the Global Synchronizer. The Company earns Canton Coins for its function as a Super Validator and Validator on the Canton Network.
As discussed in Note 2, “New Accounting Pronouncements”, the Company adopted ASU No. 2023-08, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Other-Crypto Assets (Subtopic 350-60): Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets” during the first quarter of fiscal year 2026, which requires entities to measure crypto assets that meet specific criteria at fair value. Prior to the adoption of ASU No. 2023-08 in the first quarter of fiscal year 2026, the Company held the Canton Coins on its Balance Sheet at their cost basis, which was immaterial, for investment purposes and to pay any fees associated with its Canton Network activity. During the first quarter of 2026, the Company began converting the coins to cash nearly immediately after they were earned and continued to do so periodically throughout the second fiscal quarter of 2026.
The cost basis of the Canton Coins received is initially recorded at fair value on the date of receipt as a component of Other non-current assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and Revenue on the Statements of Earnings within the Company’s GTO reportable segment. Beginning in the first quarter of fiscal year 2026, in accordance with ASU No. 2023-08, the Canton Coins are then remeasured to fair market value at the end of each reporting period, through an adjustment to unrealized gain/(loss), included as a component of Other non-operating income (expenses), net on the Consolidated Statements of Earnings within Corporate and Other. The Company employs the specific identification method to determine the cost basis of the Canton Coins sold for the computation of gains and losses on their disposal or sale. Realized gains (losses) on sale of Canton Coins, if applicable, are included as a component of Other non-operating income (expenses), net in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings within Corporate and Other. Refer to Note 7, “Fair Value of Financial Instruments” for details regarding the Company’s digital asset holdings.
In March 2026, the Canton Network approved a framework under which Super Validators may voluntarily lock a specified percentage of their aggregate lifetime earned Canton Coins to maintain the level at which the Company earns Canton Coins (“Super Validator Weight”). The amount of Super Validator Weight assigned to a participant is based on the percentage of lifetime Canton Coins that remain actively locked. The framework applies to both historical and future earned Canton Coins, and the required lock thresholds decline over time. Super Validators can unlock tokens at any time. Once unlocked, tokens are released gradually over a year. The Company has elected to lock 70% of the lifetime and future earned Canton Coins, which allows it to retain its current Super Validator Weight. The final Locking Commitment election is scheduled to impact the receipt of future Super Validator Canton Coins earned beginning in May 2026.
Use of Estimates Use of Estimates. The preparation of these financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes thereto. These estimates are based on management’s best knowledge of current events, historical experience, actions that the Company may undertake in the future and on various other assumptions and judgment that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. The use of estimates in specific accounting policies is described further in the notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, as appropriate.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” (“ASU No. 2023-09”), which requires an entity to annually disclose specific categories in the effective tax rate reconciliation, additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold, and certain information about income taxes paid. ASU No. 2023-09 is effective for the Company for annual periods beginning with our fiscal year ending June 30, 2026. This ASU will result in additional disclosures with no impact to the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets or Consolidated Statements of Earnings, Comprehensive Income, Equity, or Cash Flows.
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. Early adoption of the amendments is permitted. Upon adoption, this guidance is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-06, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software” (“ASU No. 2025-06”), which removes all references to sequential software development project stages and establishes new capitalization criteria. In order for capitalization to begin under the new guidance, management must authorize and commit to funding a project and meet a probable-to-complete recognition threshold. In evaluating whether the probable-to-complete recognition threshold has been met, management is required to consider whether there is a significant development uncertainty associated with the software project. The amendments in this ASU may be applied using (1) a prospective transition approach applying the guidance to new software costs incurred as of the beginning of the period of adoption for all projects, including in-process projects, (2) a retrospective transition approach by recasting comparative periods and recognizing a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings, or (3) a modified transition approach applying the amendments on a prospective basis to new software costs incurred except for in-process projects that, as of the date of adoption the entity determines do not meet the capitalization requirements under the new guidance. ASU No. 2025-06 is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal year 2029. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact that the adoption of ASU 2025-06 will have on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-07, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) and Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)”, which refines the scope of Topic 815 to clarify which contracts are subject to derivative accounting. The guidance also provides clarification under Topic 606 for share-based payments from a customer in a revenue contract. ASU No. 2025-07 is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal year 2027. 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) modified retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. Early adoption of the amendments is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact that the adoption of ASU No. 2025-07 will have on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, “Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements”, which clarifies the applicability of the interim reporting guidance, the types of interim reporting, and the form and content of interim financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Per the FASB, the amendment does not intend to change the fundamental nature of interim reporting or expand or reduce current interim disclosure requirements but rather provide clarity and improve navigability of the existing interim reporting requirements. ASU No. 2025-11 is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal year 2029. 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. Early adoption of the amendments is permitted. The adoption of ASU 2025-11 is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 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 No. 2023-08 requires entities to measure crypto assets that meet specific criteria at fair value, with changes recognized in net income each reporting period. The Company adopted ASU No. 2023-08 during the first quarter of fiscal year 2026, which resulted in a cumulative-effect increase in the opening balance of retained earnings of $24.5 million, or 18.4 million net of tax. Refer to Note 1, “Basis of Presentation” for details regarding the Company’s digital asset holdings.
In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-01, “Compensation—Stock Compensation - Scope Application of Profits Interest and Similar Awards” (“ASU No. 2024-01”), which provides illustrative guidance to help entities determine whether profits interest and similar awards should be accounted for as share-based payment arrangements within the scope of Topic 718 or another accounting standard. The Company adopted ASU No. 2024-01 during the first quarter of fiscal year 2026. This guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU No. 2025-05, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets”, which permits entities to elect a practical expedient to assume current conditions as of the balance sheet date will not change for the remaining life of accounts receivable and contract assets when developing forecasts as part of estimating expected credit losses. ASU No. 2025-05 is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal year 2027. The amendments should be applied prospectively. Early adoption of the amendments is permitted.

Revenue Recognition
ASC 606 “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” outlines a single comprehensive model to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. The core principle is that an entity recognizes revenue to reflect the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services.
The Company’s revenues from clients are primarily generated from fees for providing investor communications and technology-enabled services and solutions. Revenues are recognized for the two reportable segments as follows:
Investor Communication Solutions—Revenues are generated primarily from processing and distributing investor communications and other related services as well as vote processing and tabulation. The Company typically enters into agreements with clients to provide services on a fee for service basis. Fees received for processing and distributing investor communications are generally variably priced and recognized as revenue over time as the Company provides the services to clients based on the number of units processed, which coincides with the pattern of value transfer to the client. Broadridge works directly with corporate issuers (“Issuers”) and mutual funds to ensure that the account holders of the Company’s bank and broker clients, who are also the shareholders of Issuers and mutual funds, receive the appropriate investor communications materials and the services are fulfilled in accordance with each Issuer’s and mutual fund’s requirements. Broadridge works directly with the Issuers and mutual funds to resolve any issues that may arise. As such, Issuers and mutual funds are viewed as the customer of the Company’s services. As a result, revenues for distribution services as well as proxy materials fulfillment services are recorded in Revenue on a gross basis with corresponding costs including amounts remitted to the broker-dealers and banks (referred to as “Nominees”) recorded in Cost of revenues. Fees for the Company’s investor communications services arrangements are typically billed and paid on a monthly basis following the delivery of the services. The Company also offers certain hosted service arrangements that can be priced on a fixed and/or variable basis for which revenue is recognized over time as the Company satisfies its performance obligation by delivering services to the client on a monthly basis based on the number of transactions processed or units delivered, in the case of variable priced arrangements, or a fixed monthly fee in the case of fixed price arrangements, in each case which coincides with the pattern of value transfer to the client. These services may be billed in a variety of payment frequencies depending on the specific arrangement.
Global Technology and Operations—Revenues are generated primarily from fees for trade processing and related services. Revenue is recognized over time as the Company satisfies its performance obligation by delivering services to the client. The Company’s arrangements for processing and related services typically consist of an obligation to provide specific services to its clients on a when and if needed basis (a stand ready obligation) with revenue recognized from the satisfaction of the performance obligations on a monthly basis generally in the amount billable to the client. These services are generally provided under variable priced arrangements based on volume of service and can include minimum monthly usage fees. Client service agreements often include up-front consideration in addition to the recurring fee for trade processing. Up-front implementation fees, as well as certain enhancements to existing technology platforms, are deferred and recognized on a straight-line basis over the service term of the contract which corresponds to the timing of transfer of value to the client that commences after client acceptance when the processing term begins. In addition, revenue is also generated from the fulfillment of professional services engagements which are generally priced on a time and materials or fixed price basis, and are recognized as the services are provided to the client which corresponds to the timing of transfer of value to the client. The Company generally recognizes license revenues from software term licenses installed on clients’ premises upon delivery and acceptance of the software license, assuming a contract is deemed to exist, and recognizes revenue attributed to the associated software maintenance and support obligation over the contract term. Software term license revenue is not a significant portion of the Company’s revenues. In addition, the Company earns revenue as a result of its performance of services related to the Canton Network. During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2026, the Company recognized revenue of $3.5 million and $14.7 million, respectively, related to those services. Refer to Note 1, “Basis of Presentation” for details.
The Company uses the following methods, inputs, and assumptions in determining amounts of revenue to recognize:
Transaction Price
The Company allocates transaction price to the individual performance obligations within a contract. If the contracted prices reflect the relative standalone selling prices for the individual performance obligations, no allocations are made. Otherwise, the Company uses the relative selling price method to allocate the transaction price, obtained from sources such as the observable price of a good or service when the Company sells that good or service separately in similar circumstances and to similar clients. If such evidence is unavailable, the Company uses the best estimate of the selling price, which includes various internal factors such as pricing strategy and market factors. A significant portion of the Company’s performance obligations are generated from transactions with volume based fees and includes services that are delivered at the same time. The Company recognizes revenue related to these arrangements over time as the services are provided to the client. While many of the Company’s contracts contain some component of variable consideration, the Company only recognizes variable consideration that is not expected to reverse. The Company allocates variable payments to distinct services in an overall contract when the variable payment relates specifically to that particular service and for which the variable payment reflects what the Company expects to receive in exchange for that particular service. As a result, the Company generally allocates and recognizes variable consideration in the period it has the contractual right to invoice the client.
As described above, Broadridge’s most significant performance obligations involve variable consideration which constitutes the majority of its revenue streams. The Company’s variable consideration components meet the criteria in ASC 606 for exclusion from disclosure of the remaining transaction price allocated to unsatisfied performance obligations as does any contracts with clients with an original duration of one year or less. The Company has contracts with clients that vary in length depending on the nature of the services and contractual terms negotiated with the client, and they generally extend over a multi-year period.
Taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction, that are collected by the Company from a client, are excluded from revenue. Distribution revenues associated with shipping and handling activities are accounted for as a fulfillment activity and recognized as the related services or products are transferred to the client. As a practical expedient, the Company does not adjust the transaction price for the effects of a significant financing component if, at contract inception, the period between client payment and the transfer of goods or services is expected to be one year or less.
Disaggregation of Revenue
The Company has presented below its revenue disaggregated by product line and by revenue type within each of its Investor Communication Solutions and Global Technology and Operations reportable segments.
Revenues in the Investor Communication Solutions segment are derived from both recurring and event-driven activity. In addition, the level of recurring and event-driven activity the Company processes directly impacts Distribution revenues. While event-driven activity is highly repeatable, it may not recur on an annual basis. Event-driven revenues are based on the number of special events and corporate transactions the Company processes. Event-driven activity is impacted by financial market conditions and changes in regulatory compliance requirements, resulting in fluctuations in the timing and levels of event-driven revenues. Distribution revenues primarily include revenues related to the physical mailing and distribution of proxy materials, interim communications, transaction reporting, customer communications and fulfillment services, as well as Broadridge Retirement and Workplace administrative services.
Acquisitions
Assets acquired and liabilities assumed in business combinations are recorded on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of the respective acquisition date based upon the estimated fair values at such date. The results of operations of the business acquired by the Company are included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings since the respective date of acquisition. The excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair values of the underlying assets acquired and liabilities assumed is allocated to Goodwill. Acquired Goodwill in connection with these acquisitions represents expected synergies from the combined operations. Pro forma information for these acquired businesses is not provided because they did not have a material effect, individually or in the aggregate, on the Company’s consolidated results of operations.
