TransUnion (TRU) (Q3 2026) Earnings Call Highlights: Revenue and EPS Beat Guidance

TransUnion (TRU) reported Q3 2026 earnings beating guidance with 8% revenue growth and 14% EPS growth. International business grew 10%, led by India and Latin America. The company reduced its leverage ratio and increased share repurchase authorization. However, rising interest rates are expected to slow mortgage volumes and auto affordability, leading to a sequential deceleration in revenue growth to 3-6% in Q4. Legal and regulatory expenses also contributed to margin contraction.
