(1)The weighted average interest rate includes the impact of the fair value basis adjustments due to interest rate swaps and the impact of cross-currency interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges and excludes the impact of cross-currency interest rate swaps designated as net investment hedges (see Note 15). The impact of the included fair value basis adjustments and cross-currency interest rate swaps in certain cases results in an effective weighted average interest rate being outside the stated interest rate range on the fixed rate notes. (2)Interest on the Revolving Credit Facility is generally payable at Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus an applicable margin of up to 1.625% and an unused commitment fee of up to 0.200%, each based upon the Company's corporate credit ratings. The weighted average interest rate on the Revolving Credit Facility excludes fees. (3)Interest on the Incremental Revolving Credit Facility is generally payable at SOFR plus an applicable margin of up to 1.625% and an unused commitment fee of up to 0.200%, each based upon the Company's corporate credit ratings. (4)Other includes the amount of fair value basis adjustments due to interest rate swaps (see further discussion below and in Note 15), unamortized debt issuance costs and unamortized non-cash bond discounts. Short-term borrowings as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, consisted of the following (in millions):

The Company is a party to interest rate swaps that, prior to de-designation as fair value hedges during the quarter ended September 30, 2023, converted a portion of its fixed-rate debt to variable-rate debt. As a result of the de-designations, the final fair value basis adjustments recorded through the dates of de-designation as a decrease of the long-term debt are subsequently amortized as interest expense using the effective interest method over the remaining periods to maturity of the respective long- term debt. The fair value basis adjustments reflected in Other in the long-term debt table above totaled $(192) million and $(228) million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company is also party to fixed-for-fixed cross-currency interest rate swaps under which it agrees to receive interest in foreign currency in exchange for paying interest in U.S. dollars. These are designated as fair value hedges. The Company has also entered into cross-currency interest rate swaps under which it agrees to receive interest in U.S. dollars in exchange for paying interest in a foreign currency. These are designated as net investment hedges. Although these cross-currency interest rate swaps are entered into as net investment hedges of its investments in certain of its non-U.S. subsidiaries, and not for the purpose of hedging interest rates, the benefit or cost of such hedges is reflected in interest expense in the consolidated statements of earnings (loss). As of December 31, 2025, the weighted average interest rate of the Company's outstanding debt was 3.8%, including the impact of fair value basis adjustments due to interest rate swaps and cross-currency interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges but excluding the impact of cross-currency interest rate swaps designated as net investment hedges. Including the impact of the net investment hedge cross-currency interest rate swaps on interest expense, the weighted average interest rate of the Company's outstanding debt was 3.0%. See Note 15 for further discussion of the Company's interest rate swaps and cross-currency interest rate swaps and related hedge designations. The obligations of FIS under the revolving credit facilities, ECP Notes and USCP Notes, and all of its outstanding senior notes rank equal in priority and are unsecured. The following table summarizes the amount of our long-term debt, including financing obligations for certain hardware and software, as of December 31, 2025, based on maturity date.

There are no mandatory principal payments on the revolving credit facilities and any balance outstanding on the revolving credit facilities will be due and payable at the revolving credit facilities' respective scheduled maturity dates, which occur on September 27, 2029, for the Revolving Credit Facility and June 15, 2027, for the Incremental Revolving Credit Facility. Senior Notes FIS may redeem the Senior USD Notes, Senior Euro Notes and Senior GBP Notes (collectively, the "Senior Notes") at its option in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price equal to the greater of 100% of the principal amount to be redeemed and a make-whole amount calculated as described in the related indenture in each case plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the date of redemption, provided no make-whole amount will be paid for redemptions of the Senior Notes during the period described in the related indenture (ranging from one to six months) prior to their maturity. On December 3, 2025, FIS repaid in full an aggregate principal amount of €625 million in its 0.625% Senior Euro Notes at maturity. On July 15, 2025, FIS repaid in full an aggregate principal amount of $287 million in its 4.500% Senior USD Notes at maturity. On March 7 and 8, 2024, pursuant to cash tender offers, FIS purchased and redeemed an aggregate principal amount of $1.5 billion in Senior USD Notes and an aggregate principal amount of £1.0 billion in Senior GBP Notes, with interest rates ranging from 2.25% to 5.625% and maturities ranging from 2025 to 2052, resulting in a loss on extinguishment of debt of approximately $174 million, recorded in Other income (expense), net on the consolidated statement of earnings (loss), relating to tender discounts and fees; the write-off of unamortized bond discounts, debt issuance costs and fair value basis adjustments; and gains on related derivative instruments. The Company funded the purchase and redemption of the Senior Notes using a portion of the net proceeds from the 2024 Worldpay Sale. The Senior Notes are subject to customary covenants, including, among others, customary events of default. Commercial Paper The Company has a Euro commercial paper ("ECP") program and a U.S. commercial paper ("USCP") program for the issuance and sale of senior, unsecured commercial paper notes, up to a combined maximum aggregate amount outstanding at any time of $7.0 billion. Borrowings are limited to the available capacity under the revolving credit facilities, which backstop the commercial paper programs. The ECP and USCP programs are generally used for general corporate purposes. During the first quarter of 2024, the Company repaid its ECP Notes and USCP Notes using a portion of the net proceeds from the 2024 Worldpay Sale before resuming borrowings during the third quarter of 2024. Revolving Credit Facilities On November 6, 2025, the Company amended its existing Revolving Credit Facility, increasing the total commitments from $4.5 billion to $6.0 billion. On November 6, 2025, FIS also entered into an Incremental Revolving Credit Facility that provides $1.0 billion in additional revolving credit commitments, with a scheduled maturity date of June 15, 2027. Proceeds from borrowings under this facility may be used for general corporate purposes, including working capital needs, repayment of existing indebtedness and to backstop the Company's commercial paper program. As of December 31, 2025, the borrowing capacity under the revolving credit facilities was approximately $4,056 million (net of $2,729 million of capacity backstopping our commercial paper notes and $215 million of Revolving Credit Facility outstanding balance). The Revolving Credit Facility and Incremental Revolving Credit Facility are subject to customary covenants restricting, among other things, the incurrence of indebtedness, certain restricted payments and use of proceeds as well as requiring us to maintain certain financial ratios. We monitor the financial stability of our counterparties on an ongoing basis. The lender commitments under the undrawn portion of the revolving credit facilities are comprised of a diversified set of financial institutions, both domestic and international. The failure of any single lender to perform its obligations under the revolving credit facilities would not adversely impact our ability to fund our operations. Financing of Issuer Solutions Acquisition On April 17, 2025, we entered into a commitment letter (the "Bridge Commitment Letter") with Goldman Sachs Bank USA, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC (the "Lenders") pursuant to which the Lenders committed to provide a 364-day senior unsecured bridge term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $8.0 billion, subject to customary conditions. On May 1, 2025, we entered into a credit agreement (the "Term Facility") with a group of lenders pursuant to which we can draw up to an aggregate principal amount of $8.0 billion of senior unsecured term loans to fund the Issuer Solutions Acquisition, subject to customary conditions. Upon entry into the Term Facility, all commitments under the Bridge Commitment Letter were reduced to $0 and the Bridge Commitment Letter was terminated in accordance with its terms. We funded the cash portion of the Issuer Solutions Acquisition by drawing $7.7 billion under the Term Facility on January 9, 2026. FIS expects to replace the Term Facility with new permanent financing in the form of senior notes to be issued based on market conditions. We expect our future cash paid for interest to increase from current levels as a result of financing the Issuer Solutions Acquisition. Fair Value of Debt The fair value of the Company's long-term debt is estimated to be approximately $619 million and $806 million lower than the carrying value, excluding the fair value basis adjustments due to interest rate swaps and unamortized discounts, as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
