The **operating cash flow** dropped sharply in Q1 2024 primarily due to **changes in the timing of working capital**, which adversely impacted cash flows. This negative impact was not fully offset by an **increase in earnings adjusted for non-cash items**, leading to a significant overall decline in net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations.  **[0001136893-24-000063_fis-20240331.htm:41]** 

Why did Operating Cash Flow drop so sharply in Q1 2024?

The documents do not indicate a nearly 50% decline in annual operating cash flow for FY 2024. One document shows that the **net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations** was **$4,335 million in FY 2023**  **[0001136893-24-000015_fis-20231231.htm:84]**  while another indicates it was **$2,175 million in FY 2024**.  **[0001136893-25-000014_fis-20241231.htm:86]**  However, the only detailed discussion explains a modest **$97 million** increase—from **$2,078 million in FY 2023** to **$2,175 million in FY 2024**—attributed to **higher net earnings adjusted for non-cash items** partially offset by **changes in working capital timing**.  **[0001136893-25-000014_fis-20241231.htm:72]**  There is no explanation or discussion in the available documents about a nearly 50% decline.

What factors contributed to the nearly 50% decline in annual Operating Cash Flow in FY 2024?

The unusually high proceeds in Q1 2024 were driven by the completion of the **Worldpay Sale**. FIS sold a **55% stake** in its Worldpay Merchant Solutions business to private equity funds managed by GTCR. The transaction was valued at **$18.5 billion**, and after accounting for closing adjustments, debt restructuring fees, taxes, and transaction costs, FIS received **net cash proceeds of over $12 billion**, leading to the **$12,795 million** reported in Q1 2024.  **[0001136893-24-000060_q12024ex991.htm:10]** **[0001193125-24-118098_d96146ddef14a.htm:43]** 

What drove the unusually high proceeds from the sale of businesses and investments in Q1 2024?

The dramatic swing in Q1 2024 was primarily driven by **$12.8 billion in cash proceeds from the sale of a 55% equity interest in its Worldpay Merchant Solutions business**. This huge inflow was partially offset by the **$3.1 billion cash divested** as part of that transaction, along with relatively smaller outflows for **capital expenditures of $202 million** and **$56 million used for acquisitions**. These factors combined to shift FIS’s investing cash flow from a significant outflow in the previous period to a substantial inflow in Q1 2024.  **[0001136893-24-000063_fis-20240331.htm:41]** **[0001136893-24-000060_q12024ex991.htm:10]** **[0001193125-24-118098_d96146ddef14a.htm:43]** 

How did the investing cash flow swing so dramatically in Q1 2024?

The vast increase in financing cash outflows in Q1 2024 was primarily driven by a combination of factors. **Higher debt repayments** increased significantly (from approximately **$20,538 million** to **$21,379 million**), while **new borrowings decreased** substantially (from about **$20,233 million** to **$13,441 million**). Additionally, there was a marked rise in **treasury stock repurchases** (from around **$14 million** to **$1,342 million**), along with the impact of **dividends paid** at **$209 million**. These factors collectively resulted in the significant net cash outflow experienced in Q1 2024.  **[0001136893-24-000060_q12024ex991.htm:10]**

The spike in **Cash and cash equivalents** in Q1 2024 was primarily driven by the proceeds from FIS's **Worldpay Sale**. Specifically, the company divested a **55% stake in its Worldpay Merchant Solutions business**, which generated substantial cash inflows. Additionally, a significant portion of the cash balance related to unused proceeds from this transaction, accompanied by settlement payables and net deposits-in-transit that are typically settled within a few business days.  **[0001136893-24-000063_fis-20240331.htm:13]** **[0001136893-24-000063_fis-20240331.htm:40]** **[0001136893-24-000060_q12024ex991.htm:0]** 

What drove the spike in Cash and cash equivalents in Q1 2024?

**The significant drop in Total assets for Q1 2024 was primarily due to the completion of the Worldpay Sale. FIS sold a **55% equity interest** in its **Worldpay Merchant Solutions business**, resulting in the assets and liabilities related to this segment being classified as held for sale and subsequently removed from the balance sheet on January 31, 2024**.  **[0001136893-24-000060_q12024ex991.htm:9]** **[0001136893-24-000060_q12024ex991.htm:0]** **[0001136893-24-000063_fis-20240331.htm:31]** **[0001136893-24-000063_fis-20240331.htm:5]** 

Why did Total assets drop significantly in Q1 2024?

The sharp decline in **short-term borrowings** in Q3 2024 was primarily caused by a substantial reduction in both its **Euro-commercial paper notes (ECP Notes)** and **U.S. commercial paper notes (USCP Notes)**. Specifically, the reduction was driven by the use of proceeds from the **Worldpay Sale**, which was completed on January 31, 2024, to pay down the outstanding borrowings under these programs.  **[0001136893-24-000139_fis-20240930.htm:21]** **[0001136893-24-000139_fis-20240930.htm:48]**
