Additional concerns: Leverage penalty (D/E 1.3): -0.5; Sector modifier (Technology): -0.8. Chart setup: Death cross but MACD improving, RSI 63. Score 6.5/10, moderate confidence.

Passes 4/9 gates (clean insider activity, news events none recent, semi cycle peak clear, materials cycle peak clear). Fails on weak momentum and favorable risk/reward ratio and death cross (50MA < 200MA) and earnings proximity 6d<=7d. Suitability: speculative.

About Fidelity National Information S

About Fidelity National Information S

FIS generated $10.7 billion in consolidated revenue in 2025, with Banking Solutions contributing $7.3 billion and Capital Market Solutions $3.2 billion. The company completed the acquisition of Global Payments' Issuer Solutions business on January 9, 2026, funded by approximately $7.7 billion of new debt while simultaneously divesting its remaining 45% Worldpay stake to Global Payments. FIS is headquartered in Jacksonville, Florida, and incorporated in Georgia as Fidelity National Information Services, Inc.

FIS earns primarily recurring revenue under multi-year processing contracts with financial institutions and capital markets firms. The Banking Solutions segment provides core processing, digital banking, card and retail payments, fraud management, electronic funds transfer, item processing, and wealth and retirement solutions to global banks, U.S. regional and community banks, credit unions, and government institutions. The Capital Market Solutions segment serves asset managers, private equity firms, broker-dealers, insurers, and corporate treasurers with trading platforms, asset servicing, lending, and treasury and risk management applications. Clients purchase solutions as managed processing, outsourced services, or licensed software. Competitors include internal technology departments of large financial institutions, global IT services firms, and fintech processors entering from adjacent industries.

Show full overview

FIS is subject to examination by the Federal Banking Agencies (FBA) — each a member of the FFIEC — as a technology service provider to U.S. financial institutions, giving those regulators authority to enjoin unsafe or unsound practices, issue enforcement orders, and impose civil money penalties. The CFPB exercises supervisory authority over consumer-facing businesses including ChexSystems; the FCA regulates FIS's U.K. broker-dealer and Platform Securities operations; and the Georgia Department of Banking and Finance sets capital requirements for the company's trust charter. Any compliance failure across this multi-regulator framework could impair FIS's ability to serve clients in the affected markets.
