FIS10-Q: Debt refinancing

FIS financed its Issuer Solutions acquisition with new debt, resulting in higher expected interest payments.

What happened

The company took on new debt, refinanced with senior notes in March 2026, to fund its major acquisition, increasing its total debt to $21.1 billion. This growing interest expense burden creates strong pressure to find cost savings and operational efficiencies across the business to protect cash flow.
